[GB] h87a LIVE NOW

[hineybush]

In for a flexy boi

Any meaningful difference between the types of LEDs? Wondering what motivation you had to change it.

Just smaller ones. It shouldn't matter really since these aren't wireless, but they'll also use less power.

Alps-only (1.6mm thick) which will have alps-only compatibility (WKL, ANSI, and AEK) - need to add bigass enter at this time. This one will be gloss black

Does the Alps PCB support the AT101 set?

yea. what's the spacing of the caps lock tho, it looks like it's a 1.5u stepped to 1.75u

Wait, so what caps lock positions does it support?

I haven't heard from my contact since I emailed him Monday. Re-emailed to see if he's on leave or something. Either way I think it'll be delayed a few days (at least) until I can get firm pricing.

[hineybush]

Got em ready. Round 2 GB here: https://hineybush.com/collections/pcbs

Will update proxy links as they're set up in the next few days.

If I order a plate and pcb together, would you just hold them both back to ship until the PCBs are ready or should I order the two separately?

Since plates are/will be in stock (eta 2 weeks for them to be in stock) they'll ship immediately while the PCBs will ship in May. If you really want me to hold on to them, PM me with your order numbers and I can take care of a partial shipping refund.

Alright, I'll order them separate. Thanks!

Are you still planning to do an Alps plate as well?

going strong so far, will have the EU link up today at some point.

Grabbed a couple of them ALPS ones! Looking forward to moving my LZ CLS and Mira SE over to the h87

Beautiful! I'd love to see a typing test of this.

grabbed a thin one thanks for running 

[hineybush]

All have hit MOQ.

I've decided this will be my last big GB (except maybe HBCP one day), so get em while you can.

This update makes me feel all kinds of emotions. If someone wanted to add a few more pcbs to their GB order should they contact you or just order them separate?

PM me here, email me at hineybushkeyboards@gmail.com, or message me on Discord (@hineybush#0069) and I can give you a one-time-use free shipping code to submit another order, I can then combine the two orders.

[hineybush]

Extending this another weel until Apr 19, 2019. Forgot i have a work trip the previous week, and I'd like a little more time to get the protos together.

I‘m assuming this means that you won‘t stock neither of your PCBs in the future? This makes me think if I should add a few more PCBs the order I placed yesterday.

I'll def stock extras. I also plan to run the GB through vendors in the future, if not just stocking. I don't want to do the fulfillment myself going forward, so that's how I'll do them.

Phew.  I've been standardizing the PCB on my TKLs using the h87a (8 to date) and my heart sunk at the thought of not being able to get more in the future.
All I need now is VIA Configurator support

[hineybush]

I'm thinking about adding RGB LED out pins for the LED stuff, so you can add a small strip if you'd need it (some boards have the RGB on the topside, like Duck Unicorn x Legend). thoughts?

Would be nice for my tx84se

ok I added it. new protos ordered. eta next week

[mushubanane]

Anybody knows where I can find plans to laser cut a compatible stacked acrylic TKL? I found a dusty repo about a uniTKL

[hineybush]

TWO MORE UPDATESSSS

Refactored and updated the QMK: https://github.com/hineybush/qmk_firmware/tree/master/keyboards/hineybush/h87a

This will be added to the main QMK repo (and I think the Configurator) once the PR is approved.

Added ziptie holes for a direct-soldered cable. It's designed for the small zipties, like <4mm wide.

[pr0ximity]

yeeeee fixed boys

[the_ambyguous]

can someone highlight the differences between this PCB and the XD87 by kprepublic? Was ruminating on getting this for an alps tkl build for a while, then I came across the XD87 which apparently also supports alps. I see that this one uses QMK, which is awesome, but the XD87 being 12 dollars cheaper is definitely appealing to my literally empty wallet, especially if I'm considering buying two PCBs. and lastly, will the XD87 case work with this PCB? unsure of what bottom USB not top means and if it applies to the XD87 case, but if its something relatively easy that a dremel can solve, I'm okay with this. Hard pressed to find a cheaper tkl case anywhere, most of the compatible cases on the list are distant future end game cases at the moment.

Check the compatibility doc listed in the front page of this thread.

To check/estimate compatibility: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1fZ8FtTGDl222hXnomQJgKmwRnWvg2VuoJ-GeAafVTLc/edit?usp=sharing

I also wouldn't recommend an xd87 pcb, I had one fail after simply unplugging it and the bootloader had to be reflashed. Cheaper isn't always better.

LESS THAN ONE WEEK TO GO FOR THE GB - ORDERS CLOSE THIS FRIDAY APRIL 19


I was asked how I'll handle the thinner PCB and stabilizer mounting. Typically they don't clip in very nicely and can wobble or lift a bit.

I fixed that issue:

[sJ1N]

looks good! thanks for the picture 

[_GMK_]

Among the compatible cases, which one would you suggest? One that's available right now obviously 

Are you guys doing a pcb mount keyboard or are you using a plate too?

They're just small FR4 spacers. I'm including them with all thin PCBs.

There was an option for no pcb though.
