Pardon my ignorance, but what stabilizers are supported? Plate? PCB? or Plate/PCB?
Those holes will support Costar, plate mount Cherry, and PCB mount Cherry.

What are the economics behind this gb? From what I see is these are exactly the same prices can be obtained for example on lasermaster.co.uk...
Plus, sorry again... but you are trying to sell an untested object?????
Okay. First of, this GB might not be economically suitable for everyone, but for the majority. If you can get it cheaper another place, do it! Also, the prices may be lower than they are currently, i just don't want to set them to low before we start.
I AM NOT selling a untested product, and i would never do it, therefore, i have ordered samples so i can test everything before selling.
My product is tested and has gone through surface treatment to make it reliable and good looking.

I can recommend the AMJ60 Pro (http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=42204599599) which adds some features: resettable fuse for over-current protection, pins for a bluetooth module (UART), mount for SMT LEDs on the back (with resitors presoldered) and small improvements with the PCB itself.
It runs fine with TMK. The only drawback is basically non-existent documentation, even in Chinese I could only find one howto.
There's also the Satan PCB.

Yes, I asked in that thread "I just ordered one from taobao seller loveq. Maybe someone could get in contact with him? He sells Gaterons, GH60 Satan, and stabilizers through taobao, but I'd rather deal with him directly without a taobao agent, if at all possible."
If someone could do a mini GB from him for PCBs, switches, stabilizers...I think it would be pretty popular.

Hi! If I wanted to change an ISO Pok3r to ansi layout (because cap sets), would this work? A reviewer was pretty sure the pcb could host both layouts without modification. I live in Finland too.
That sounds like a lot of work, but in the theory, it should work. I am not sure myself though.

There seems to be a shortage of 40% case shells but a jd40 type layout frame that matched screw holes with the planck case might be a winner.
I've been waiting for another shot at the jd40 for a while but it hasn't been available for a while.
I'm pretty sure a jd40 layout with spacefn could replace my poker as my keyboard for my bag back and forth from work.
I keep hoping to see the textblade come out as a success but the delays in getting to production and the associated delays in software development seem to leave them a long way from delivering the board with usable pc/linux layouts.

If you are feeling overly motivated a 40% plate would be pretty interesting.40% keyboards are quite interesting, yes. If I run a new GB I might add some options and do a MOQ.

40% keybs are very interesting but I believe everyone would seek a custom layout.
I agree, i cannot please everyone with the choices i make. I think this standard layout is the one that would fit most people.

I may get the plates next week, validate a few days an then open orders if everything is okay. I will have orders open as long as I am getting a significant amount of orders.
I wish you good luck and I hope that you will be able to buy :)

Which ever coating make it easier to powder coat the plate im for that. Also will the corners be rounded? would be nice to have a flush fit on a pok3r case.I will see how it fits in the Pok3r case and decide if I want to round the corners.
I think sandblasted is the easiest to powder coat.

I am continuing my validation of the plates and it looks like almost everything is going smoothly, please refer to the list in the OP for more information. Thanks for all the support.

I am soon finished testing. Something i didn't think about is that you pretty much need a PCB to mount it into a case if i am not mistaken. Anyways, there are many options, and that is what i am aiming for with these plates. I really want to open the orders now, but i want to be 100% sure before i start. Waiting for the Cherry stabs that should arrive next week, then i will open orders.
The first 50 plates purchased will have a chance to win a set of Gateron Blacks included :)

Fit [ ✔ by me, Cherry switches are a little lose, you may want to glue. Kailh and Gaterons fits perfectly. Combatible with ALPS(not Alps stabs)]
Do the cherry switches pop out of the plate when you pull a keycap?

In most cases, yes :-/
There are some exceptions. They will only pull out of the plate if you really force it on a really short period of time. Gaterons and Kailhs are stuck in the plate.

Post by: LeandreN on Sat, 16 May 2015, 15:38:09
Oh well, it won't be much of a problem, I can probably just glue them :)
Yeah. May need to glue for the Gaterons aswell. I have some really thight keycaps though. There is no big deal in terms of what could go wrong during tthe testing, and not something i am particularly concerned about.
EDIT: The fit is something you sacrifice if you want "notches". Description of the mount hole from Deskthority (http://deskthority.net/workshop-f7/how-to-design-a-plate-mount-for-cherry-mx-t7992.html) "Allows the switch to be opened without desoldering/removing from the plate. The switch's LED slot must be facing up or down."

The fit of the cherry switches, would that be rectified by power coating the plate or is the fit that lose? If so what glue would one recommend?
It is not "that" lose. With most keycaps, it won't even get out of the plate, but with some, it will. I am not an expert on gluing switches, but probably hot glue as you can remove it later.
Thanks for your order!

Fit [ ✔ by me, Cherry and Gaterons switches are a little lose, you may want to glue if you have thight keycaps and you want to remove them often. Kailh fits thightly. ALPS switches fits, but not thightly. MORE]
Post by: LeandreN on Wed, 20 May 2015, 03:24:27
Is it possible to fix this problem by modifying the size? Did you measure the holes?
Fit [ ✔ by me, Cherry and Gaterons switches are a little lose, you may want to glue if you have thight keycaps and you want to remove them often. Kailh fits thightly. ALPS switches fits, but not thightly. MORE]
Unfortunately, if i try to fix this now, i will eventually end up making one of the switches not fit. Sorry about that, but there is really little we can do. It is one of the drawbacks if you want switch top removal, Alps combability and fit for Gateron, Cherry and Kailhs at the same time.

QuoteFit [ ✔ by me, Cherry switches are a little lose, you may want to glue. Kailh and Gaterons fits perfectly. Combatible with ALPS(not Alps stabs)]
Do the cherry switches pop out of the plate when you pull a keycap?
In most cases, yes :-/
There are some exceptions. They will only pull out of the plate if you really force it on a really short period of time. Gaterons and Kailhs are stuck in the plate.
So Gaterons fit tightly? I'm hesitant to put in an order, I don't want to have to glue them or anything...

As you see under "features" they are kind of lose. They won't come of by themselves, but if you drag of a keycap, they may come of.

So I guess I missed this. These allow for spring and stem swaps without desoldering right? They will work with plate mount switches, a la Poker II. If so Im interested if there are any left.
That is the plan, and from my testing, it is possible yes.
There are a few more left.

Do you know if it will support the Winkeyless b.face PCB? It has in-switch LEDs on the bottom of the switch whereas Poker has in-switch LEDs on the top side (stabiliser compatibility). I may grab another plate
I have never tried that PCB, but i don't see any reason for it to not work if the PCB has standard mounting holes. I am not 100% sure though.

As i mentioned in my last update, the supplier tells me that the manufacturing is soon ready. They will send over some pictures that i can show you. I asked them to take an extra quality control for you. The sandblasting looks sick.
I hope to get them sent to me next week and that they might arrive the week after that. I am trying my absolutely best to get it quick to you.
For the shipments: Everything will be send with A-priority mail as letters. Tracking may not be available(pretty rare to have tracking for shipments international in Norway)
Here is estimated shipping time(from my experience):
Sweden, Finland: 2 days
Norway: 1 day
EU: 4 days
UK: 3-4 days
USA: 1 week, maybe more
Other countries: around 2 weeks
These shipping times aren't accurate.
These will be marked at 9$ value each. "Steel plate" will be the description. Weight, around 100 gram. If this will become a problem for you, please PM me immediately. They will be packed in bubble wrap and a folded C4 letter. Higher quantities will have a plastic post bag around instead of a letter for more reliability because of the added weight.
Almost everyone has payed their invoice. If there still are some people that hasn't paid, please pay ASAP or send me a message, or i will give your place to someone else.
As you may see, i am aiming for an effective group buy and i am working hard on getting everything to work out. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks to everyone who has paid and helped the group buy out :)

Yes, it will take some time, but i ship with A- priority shipment and i posted some rough estimates in my update over. It should arrive worlwide within 2 weeks, but countries like Australia and New Zealand may be longer. I will update when i know more.

Unforunately there doesn't seem to be any places left. I might sell some later though, if i have some to spare.
I really want to set up a GB for a PCB, but i do not have the knowledge to design one.

So people would have more options on how to use the plate. Same with a design that allows ISO and ANSI in one plate. (Ducky got plates like that for example)
More
Left - cut outs in the plate; Right - mounted switches + caps

How about a 60% design with additional place for switches, that would allow the replacement of a fullsize space with a smaller one? That would be something new. (well, more or less)

Got mine also today, mine got a little bent up it seems but should be easily put right looks really nice too just got fingerprints on it now :X Best order a PCB to build it then :p
Hope it wasn't to badly bent. Shouldn't harm it in any way by bending it back :) I suggest running it 10 seconds in cold water and drying with a towel! It will look awesome afterwards. Any way, good luck with your build. Let me know how it goes!

Protip: try to keep tape off the plate, it took a lot of scrubbing and isopropyl to get it right (because it stains like hell upon drying, had to clean it like 5/6 times before it was almost even):

Sorry about that :-/ That is what happens when i hurry too much. Thanks for the feedback, i will take this in mind the next time. I recommend running it in water and drying it fast in a towel.

Both plates look good, a minor bend but there was no problem bending it back.
Only thing i'm wondering about is why did you decide to tape both plates together? For one the tape is awful to get off and then all of the glue is left on the plate itself.
You can see on the image how the tape is on the plate, plus the glue left on the left side of the plate after i removed some of it.
(http://i.imgur.com/sjgFIPK.jpg?1)
Other than that, both plates look good and the switches fit well, but I'm not looking forward to cleaning the glue residue off the plates....

Would really appreciate it, means I don't need to rush with cleaning and can spend my time getting every nook and cranny making sure it's properly done :).
The thought behind it is good and I understand the reasoning, but next time get some better quality tape that can be removed more easily.
Electrical or painters tape would probably be good bets, putting some cardboard between the plates would alleviate the issue as well.

Refund for one. The other is being sent tomorrow. I have all your info.Received my two ISO plates a few days ago.I will send you one ISO as compensation. (The last ones I have). I knew something had to go wrong.
Both plates look good, a minor bend but there was no problem bending it back.
Only thing i'm wondering about is why did you decide to tape both plates together? For one the tape is awful to get off and then all of the glue is left on the plate itself.
You can see on the image how the tape is on the plate, plus the glue left on the left side of the plate after i removed some of it.Show Image(http://i.imgur.com/sjgFIPK.jpg?1)
Other than that, both plates look good and the switches fit well, but I'm not looking forward to cleaning the glue residue off the plates....
The reason I taped them together was that I didn't want them to scratch with the other plate.
Would really appreciate it, means I don't need to rush with cleaning and can spend my time getting every nook and cranny making sure it's properly done :).
The thought behind it is good and I understand the reasoning, but next time get some better quality tape that can be removed more easily.
Electrical or painters tape would probably be good bets, putting some cardboard between the plates would alleviate the issue as well.

How do they not fit?
They all have the wrong length, but that has nothing to do with the plate!
The short Cherry stabs fit really good actually.

Got mine, slight vertical bend (no problem) but the horizontal one is a *****, hopefully when screwed down it'll fit okLet me know how it goes. You can try laying something really heavy on it, and have it there over the night. Sorry about issues like this, the only thing I could do, is to invest money in packaging material, which I may end up doing for my next GB.

What alloy were these again? I wonder if they could be heat treated to make them less prone to bending.Stainless Steel 304, does that sounds wrong to you, I'll have to check it up in that case.

Don't worry about it, I have a feeling it was my numpty delivery man squeezing it into out postbox. Mine will be powder coated at a later date so any tape issues or slight bending can be sorted by me.

Unfortunately my two plates had a lot of residue on them. I will probably never clean anyway so its fine. I do have some issues with my cherry stabilizers not sittning thightly. I can easily dislodge them. Anyone else?I can send you an extra ISO if you want. Sorry for the residue that was entirely my fault.
The Cherry stabs fit somewhat tightly for me, but if they're loose, I would suggest gluing them in. If you think there could be improvements, contact SwillKB. He is the man behind the design tool used for this plates.
I will probably glue my own, as I will never remove them. If you use a heat glue, you can remove it later if needed.

NO! Do not send me a new plate. Its only glue, it comes off. Actually, i dont think you should offer people replacements since they are not broken. No one expects that of you. Just keep on with the awesomely smooth gb :)

Post by: Acerk on Wed, 17 June 2015, 14:26:54
.....And... Make an QFR/Filco compatible tkl plate <3Are you thinking Phantom/Teensy or just a replacement plate so you have notches on QFR/Filco? I'm in the same boat myself. Been thinking of putting Phantom in my QFR-I, off-center caps lock and split right shift (if possible).
Here's some info from another thread:
I had to cut a mini usb cable and solder the ends to the QFR USB board. So the mini usb cable connects to the teensy and the exposed wires are just soldered onto the QFR board. Wasn't too hard to do really and there's plenty of room in the case for everything.
I did notice one small problem with using a Phantom in a QFR case after after about 2 weeks of use. The plate and PCB do move slightly in the case if you travel with the keyboard or hit it hard on your desk. It's a pretty stiff move so it doesn't really bother me too much. I haven't found a good way to screw it to the case in a way where it won't do that. I think the problem is due to the fact that my stainless steel mounting plate is flat and the QFR requires curved edges. If you had the right plate or managed to find a way to use the QFR stock plate you probably wouldn't have a problem. Again, not really an issue that I care about... but it might bug some.

The dark spots are from where I used the scruffy pad of the sponge. You could probably avoid the same results if you just use the soft side. It doesn't really matter for me though, I'll be painting my plate as well.

I do have some issues with my cherry stabilizers not sittning thightly. I can easily dislodge them. Anyone else?
These are plate mounted stabilizers you are using, correct? Do they dislodge from the "top" part of the stabilizer hole? If so, that has to do with the design of the hole. That notch on the hole is for Costar stabilizer compatibility, but it's not present in the Cherry-only stabilizer hole design. It prevents the Cherry plate mount stabilizers from clipping onto the plate as they should, and therefore the stabilizers come out easily. It's a design compromise, for inclusion of Costar compatibility.

The only thing I've noticed is that the Cherry spacebar stabilizer gets easily stuck between PCB and place, I'm taking it out and getting a Costar stab for that. The 2u Cherry stabilizers work flawlessly.

Yes, that's the place. I got the older model with only the controller parts pre-soldered. They are on sale, since they came out with a new version with more RGB LED's on the bottom of the board.

I got too excited and didn't take any pictures before fitting everything together, but I'll post pictures of the one in progress when I get home! It took a tiny bit of fiddling to get them on around the stabilizers, but that was the only thing I noticed, other than that these are absolutely beautiful (and heavy). Thanks so much LeandreN!Haha! Great. Thanks for posting
Edit: I was surprised to find that my two plates weren't taped together, bonus win.

It's a design compromise, for inclusion of Costar compatibility.
Thank for the explenation. It is plate mount cherry stabilizers I am using.
Hugs

Very slight bend, fixed by hand right away. Tiny scuff and tape residue on Esc corner, nothing I care about.
Thank you Leandren!

Now all I need are all the other parts.I strongly recommend a Satan GH60 and a plastic 60% case (unless you prefer aluminum), you can find both on Aliexpress.

Thanks for an awesome GB!

I don't think I can use it...
I don't know I give it become original status (straight plate). Who can show me?
I'm thinking this is first bad GB which I participated ....

I am so sad now :-[
PS: You packaged plate uncarefully, I think.
Post by: Ruisu on Thu, 25 June 2015, 13:59:05
Quochung, the tape residue should just wipe off and even that bend shouldn't be too hard to make flat again.
Post by: Tiramisuu on Thu, 25 June 2015, 14:16:09
If you bend it randomly it gets worse
Post by: nephiel on Thu, 25 June 2015, 15:53:31
The tape residue should go away with warm water + soap + a good rub with a toothbrush.
Post by: quochung1989 on Thu, 25 June 2015, 18:05:51
I afraid that I can't install switch on that position.
Post by: LeandreN on Fri, 26 June 2015, 06:50:40
Thanks everyone for your advice. I 'll try to fix tape and bending issues. But about twisted esc position?

Refunded. Tape residue was my fault, packaging was also my fault to some degree.
Post by: TalkingTree on Fri, 26 June 2015, 07:02:46
But about twisted esc position?Heat the corner with a heatgun or a lighter then squeeze a switch casing (without stem and spring) in the frame.

I only can fix around 90%, can't fix it perfect. But I think it can work well.

The spacebar slot was cut by hand because I want to split the 6.25 spacebar into 5 stab-less keys (Space, Fn and TrackPoint buttons).
Switch fit in the rest of the plate is secure, but feels a bit wobbly. The only switch that doesn't wobble at all is one who had a 2-pin LED header fitted inside so it's a bit thicker.
I'd try a 0.1mm thicker plate next time if possible.

Still waiting on my round 1 plates to arrive. :'(That's unfortunate, I have definetily shipped it.
I am afraid I can't do anything about the "lost in shipping" part, but I can maybe give you a compensation. I have no extra plates. If you don't want an ISO.
Please tell me, did you plan on handwriting or PCB. I have a PCB plate coming(could work with hand wiring with glue). A couple of weeks.

Interested in a aluminum plate. Going to keep an eye on this threadI'll make a new thread for GB 2, will link here when it is done.

Unfortunately no, was needing an ANSI plate. I checked with the post office again and no luck. Didn't really have any plans for the plate yet (just gathering parts) so at the time there was no preference for PCB or handwired plate.

That would be amazing, I know it's no fault of yours and more than likely an issue with the postal system here. I know you're going to be polling for colors but I'd love to see a purple one!Purple is available in round 2
Added it for your convenience.
