considering selling my das for another one of these...i want 2

I know man, I want a linear (gray) and clicky (green or white) for sure, and maybe a tactile non clicky (clear).

i just got a poker with clears like 2 days ago. i want either greens/whites or tactile greys on my gh60...can't decide..why not just get 2!

Ahhh. I'm looking forward to a 1.5x ISO HHKB.

I'm not sure on what stabilisers to use though. Or switch colour, maybe whites (if possible).

And I want to wait and see how much The_Beast's case will be.

Look at the second post of this thread.

Quote from: WhiteFireDragon
Here are some possible layouts, rendered with my case design

In the second post you have some possible layouts. These are rendered with his case design.

:)

These will be using PCB Mount switches right?
Both PCB mounted and plate mounted switches will be possible to use, although I believe you won't be able to use plate-mounted switches if you choose to not have a plate.

yeah i really want that aluminum case or the hhkb layout. i think it would be sexy. i am still trying to find the right plate. someone suggested 1.5x ANSI but i think we need a shorter shift bar..

Would I have to order a separate plate if i buy WhiteFireDragons case?

One question please:

I have yet to receive my prototype (with prof). What are the differences from this and the prototype? Can the prototype use all these different layouts and fit the plates?

The prototype lacks the option of split backspace. Also, several of the switches (mostly bottom row and modifiers) are rotated 90 degrees on prototype. The only 90 degree rotated switch on the final revision should be the ISO enter switch, unless komar has something to add otherwise.

Edit: also, the extra pins of the 32u4 controller are broken out to pads on the final revision, which the prototype lacks.

That's right.
If you don't have a problem with rotated switches, the prototype's fine.
I think I won't have to rotate anything. It seems everything fits. Except for some overlapping holes, but that's better than rotated switches I think.

I have a question about the 2 PCB options. And the assembly service. If I have no experience at all jnapdlering and don't have access to soldering, what hold I be ordering? I think km going to be ordering the assemg service, but what is the extent of the assembly service?

Order the assembled PCBs ($40) and assembly service ($25). DIY PCBs are ONLY if you want to do everything, including SMD soldering, yourself.

Also, the assembly service consists of installing switches in the plate (if used), and soldering them to the PCB. Firmware will be flashed to your controller. If a case is purchased (if it ships with these), then installation into the case is included. And testing to ensure everything works properly.

You can always do it with a good soldering iron!

Oh believe me, that's not a problem. I just miss smd production, lol. Hand soldering 0603 size discrete components, fine pitch chips, etc no problem. Would just like to play with paste and baking again. :)

OK, semi-big order placed with form; I'm down for 3 of these plus 1 do-the-smd-yourself kit (which ill mess up likely); I'm building one for someone though if that sounds a bit much lol. Looks like ill have a 60% keyboard army; like a mini-jdcarpe collection lolol.

let me know if i messed up the form instructions around the stabs.

with so many people involved it sounds like this could run extremely smooth; I just wish you collected payment a week or two earlier than what you have set.  This is the keyboard I've been waiting for unless the ergodox does actually work out (i have my doubts about it). No KMAC for me (*ducks*).

Man, there are so many options to choose from! Kind of want a HHKB layout to go with my actual HHKB, but the ANSI WKL would also rock.

Over 80 PCBs ordered in 12 hours, and almost the same amount for plates.


I'll submit my order later depending on WFD's case progress. :D

1/3 of the PMs I got was regarding the case, so I'll just say it to everyone. I'm not going to integrate any of the cases in this GB. Mine specifically, it just has too many parts and many options, which will complicate the ordering. I also don't want my case to delay this GB at all, so it's going to stay separate.



Is the HHKB ANSI not on the order form?

ISO or ANSI 1.5x plate is compatible with 3 layouts: WKL, HHKB, and normal 1.5x bottom row modifier. They all use this same plate, but the specific layout will depend on which top case cover you choose. Obviously if you use a stock poker/pure case, you can't have a WKL or HHKB layout since you can't cover up those certain keys. So in the order form, if you want a WKL or HHKB, then you need to pick the ANSI or ISO 1.5x plate. That was mentioned in the order form, but I hope this clarifies that.



What switches and in what layout need to be rotated?

If you look at the PCB pic in the OP, all of the switches are either not rotated or rotated at 180degree. This doesn't affect your caps. The Only one that as a 270degree rotation is the ISO-enter, which is suppose to be rotated anyways.

Id be interested in that so I would be confident in the switches staying in place adverse to using the universal ansi.

So the $25 option comes with everything you need just not soldered together? Just want to make sure I wouldn't have to source diodes and such myself.

So the $25 option comes with everything you need just not soldered together? Just want to make sure I wouldn't have to source diodes and such myself.

Yes, components included.

what are the options for the switches?
Are can we get any type of switch? I'm looking at grey and whites

Switches and stabilizers

I was a little reluctant to include switches and stabilizers with this GB at first, because it'll just further complicate ordering, choices, invoice, and organization/management. But I figured it'll be a tad cheaper and easier to have a centralized place to get stuff.

7bit will just send 1 large order directly to us. Feel free to get it directly from him. We're not in control of how much they cost, choices, and when they're available. But ordering large amounts in a GB can be cheaper for everyone. Refer HERE for direct info and which switch choices are available. Then just fill out which ones you want in the order form.

As for stabilizers, I only have plate-mounted cherries, but I believe alaricljs will get a bunch of PCB-mounted cherry stabilizers soon. You can get Costars directly from WASDkeyboards, or if there are enough orders for the costars at the end, we'll put a large order for those as well. The problem is the spacebar wires. They can't be bought anywhere, so they'll have to be made. I'll post a guide so you can make your own. I'll make as many as I can, but it takes me ~10 minutes each, so I don't think I'll be making 200+ of them.

I don't think the OP specifies what the plates are made out of.  Can we assume SS?

a few noob questions:

Does/will the firmware support nordic ISO characters aswell?

I might be wrong, but havent there been talk about LED option in the escape key too?

What stabilizers do Ducky keyboards use? Is cherry?


I think thats all for now, will probably drop an order in the next few days.. :P great work on this!
