IC form didn't take email? Is that intentional?
cheesydangerously cheesy
this seems like it will be very expensive and hard to qc....

agree with this, I mean its basically plastic with holes in it, so not very durable either.
Seems like a cool concept just really hard to make a reality.
I'm very proud. I love the mouse weight too! Looks like a slice of cheddar.
It this could use a swiss cheese pcb like the soldered dz60t that would be amazing, and the plate should have support for more layouts so it too looks like swiss cheese.
so cool. ISO maybe? 🤞

I don't see a need for it! You can stay up to date on my discord or on this IC :D
Very cool :cool:
Going to watch this one.
Hope you will be able to keep updates here consistantly and not just in the Discord 😌🤝
It's a novel idea, but a proto should be already done to prove that your concept can be made.
should've been named cheeseboard smh :(
I wonder if this is only HHKB layout. I would jump on this but definitely I am not a HHKB person :(
Wouldnt a WKL blocker also do the same?
I need my pinky to sit on a key!!
so cool. ISO maybe? 🤞
Iso hhkb🤨

info on the pcb? e.g firmware, usb etc
if this ends up haveing full backspace i will definately buy one if given the chance, this looks so cool. and +1 for having a moon grey version.
Any considerations for split space bar? Would love to see it as an option. :thumb:
can we get a pink plate option so i can have ham and cheese boardThis is big brain :D but also a pink weight would look so cool, though maybe hard to do

No, Fixed layout.
Okay i have to do this, this is not a swiss cheese. Swiss typical cheese is more « Gruyere ». This is Emmental from France I feel better sorry.

Nice, will be full of cheesefound theses keycaps on etsy

That is almost too good to be true :D I shudder to think what the price would be for a full board though.Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/2ELkfhP.jpg)
Ahhh, now that the prototype is colored I feel good about it again. Is this the final color?
This board may be good therapy for trypophobia. When I saw the bare proto on my phone I was icked out. Now it is amusing again ^-^
Is it sharp at all where the holes meet the edges? I would hurt myself with this.
i still really want this. is the yellow very vibrant in person? i don't think my screen is very colour accurate haha
Missed opportunity to call it the Camemboard.
Gouda job, quite a brielliant idea. It's a grate concept.
Seriously though, I remember seeing this initial concept/render as a joke by you, months ago on discord and I'm super happy to see protos. The holes look clean.
I don't love or hate the yellow of the proto, but I do get why the other comment said Spongebob vibes.
Maybe photos in different lighting (+/- with a block of cheese in them too haha) might change my mind, but I was expecting/wishing for a different tone of yellow.
Looks great, but would prefer a bit more saturated 'cartoony' yellow like the earlier renders. Still interested either way!
Although I preferred the rendered look more at first, the prototype colour is growing on me and definitely has a more legit 'Swiss cheese' look to it.Yeah the renders are a bit more eye-catching but also not accurate to 'swiss cheese'. They're more the colour of cheddar and maasdam.
Someone on Reddit made matching keycaps for thisAll we need now are custom cables with natural Penicillium camemberti techflex and Cheetoh-powder-coated aviator connectors, then the meme is complete.

offering 2 or 3 colour variants; because cheese can be almost white, pale yellow and saturated yellow in colours.Sadly not very possible when going with custom colors, it will either raise the price or raise the moq for said colors

The prototype yellow being less saturated is closer to Swiss cheese, but from the photos, it's still a bit off and I think there's room for it to be even nicer and more accurate to Swiss cheese.
It's not the end of the world whichever route Bregoli takes, but I'd suggest taking it to the next level; renaming the project the Cheeseboard, and offering 2 or 3 colour variants; because cheese can be almost white, pale yellow and saturated yellow in colours.
Also in the google form, you might want to change the options to allow multiple selections or a ranked list (e.g I want a stepped caps option + a regular shift and backspace, I like a POM plate but a PC plate would also be nice if there's enough interest, etc.)
Proto arrived today!Pics or it didn't happen :P

Bad News:3D printing, not sure if this was mentioned. RIP Cheese. Do you plane to make a cheese-wheel macro pad to accommodate this?
The reason POM hasn't been the topic as of late is due to original custom colored POM Supplier backing out and all other POM suppliers contacted either had unreachable MOQs (I would need to sell 500 POM Boards or more) or were too busy and had lead times which would delay it to 2021. Due to these unforeseen circumstances I sadly have to announce the POM board will be CANCELLED. The aluminium version is still going smoothly and will be made, although no confirmed timeline. I am exploring other options, one being yellow dyed poly carbonate. I will create some renders to show everyone soon.

Will the aluminium version look like also the render - like a piece of Swiss cheese? Or is it a smooth case?I guess you missed these:

These pieces are off to e-coating and after will be shipped to me. Looking great so far and I can't wait to see it in my hands.
PROTOS HAVE BEEN COLORED
And it's looking fantastic!Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/i26wpZa.jpg)Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/4IHwrMH.jpg)Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/oFRbsyU.jpg)Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/04pEpcI.jpg)Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/mWRzqdb.jpg)
i find it rather ironic that a case called swiss and being a slice of cheese does not support the ISO layout used in switzerland and france... or pretty much anywhere in the world... (and to some of the American that forgot, only the US uses the ANSI layout pretty much... and no switzerland is not part of the US)
Will this be in a group buy phase or will these be mass produce by you? Either way I want, I need it and I will have it!
Bad News:Ah damn that's a shame. I'd be interested in a board made out of POM, but yellow dyed polycarb might lend to an interesting look.

When do you estimate that these will be heading into GB? Id just like to know so I can be first in line for this magnificently designed case? Also do you have an estimated price point that you are trying to hit?
Edit: Also what materials do you play to make this out of? Are you sticking with just aluminum or are you going to be offering a plastic/acrylic version for the community?
color is way too spongebob on the first proto.
gray/moon option would be great

Is the layout final or is there still hope for split space bar support?Layout is final
That's a shame, unless this supports a generic plate and PCB to add split space support unofficially I'm out for this one.Is the layout final or is there still hope for split space bar support?Layout is final
Filled the form, is it possible to release the plate file so I can source a carbon fiber one locally?

I will release plate files when as gb is finished!

My friend who has access to carbon fiber sourcing confirmed that making a keyboard plate is possible, just to confirm the plate thickness on the Swiss will be 1.5 mm?

Yes, the usual 1.5mm!
I just got this in an email this morning:yeah well, will wait for bregoli's version / original concept.

Damn, this would be so cool if it wasn't HHKB XD
I'm happy to announce this board will start the GB in 3 days
New Info:
GB: February 10th - March 10th
Price: $409 USD
Will there be more rounds and more layouts in future?
