JonoColwell:
August 2022 update

Bit shorter time between updates

First of all huge shoutout to Mendez for building the prototype and giving his honest feedback on it.


To address the points he brings up in the video
1. I am investigating the ping issue, I am currently in the process of ordering some silicone in various thicknesses that could be placed where the tape would go to resolve the ping issue.
2. I am currently working on getting some new PCB and Case prototypes made with AEboards through their manufacturer which should resolve the stabiliser issue for spacebar
3. There will be a polycarbonate plate option
4. I am currently looking at getting foam for the case to see if it makes a huge difference.
5. Colours will be finalised once I've accepted samples from the new manufacturer
6. Where to buy is still in progress, sorry about the lack of updates and lack of board but I'm not releasing a product that I'm not 100% happy with.


April 2022 Update
Wow, long time between updates

Took me a long time to get the rest of the prototypes sorted, thanks materials shortage

Check out this bad boy

JUNE 2021 Update

First of all, it's been a while, I've got some new stuff to share with you, some new prototypes, and finally a KLE, which I realise only now I didn't share earlier


I was going to drive the boards over to my mate's place who did the initial photos because he's good with cameras and I'm ham fisted camera shake man, however we just got locked down for two weeks so I decided to go out the front and see what I could do.

Update: couple of new pics,

Kinda scuffed this one because I didn't specify tolerances for electroplating on manufacture, so I had to use a dremel and smash it with a hammer to fit it together, gonna get it cleaned up from all the finger marks etc on it and take some more pics later.

Note: Not sure if the Rose Gold will be offered as an option, if it is it'll be pricey, it's proper rose gold so it's about 10x as expensive as a black would be etc

Anyone interested in something like this?
