[IC]Revo HHKB layout kit

[Photekq]

These look incredible. I'm definitely in if I have enough money at the time. I just hope the machining/anodising quality will be the best

[nsmechkb]

Pretty! I prefer this housing design to duck's viper.
None of those silly geometric cutouts for led lighting & acrylic inserts.

Great point!  Liked the V1 Viper much better than V2.  Like this one better than both.

[Moistgun]

Soooooooooooooo

how about an aluminum revo wrist rest from the same ano factory

[Perfex]

2017 the year we all went broke buying customs, so many customs that are incredible these last couple months.

[gnmar2723]

Yo, I'm so down for this. My wallet might not be but I want it so bad.

[DALExSNAIL]

Soooooooooooooo

how about an aluminum revo wrist rest from the same ano factory

Requesting this as well

All I want in my life is an aluminum wrist wrest

[taylordcraig]

I don't want to **** on anyone's parade but the anodizing doesn't look of noticeably higher quality than previous customs.

It does.

[kiwi99]

cool board, definitely interested, brass weight or not the upper portion is nice and clean.

[Panzerhawx]

Wow, this is fantastic.

The wrist you see from the pink pictures are made by my friend. I'll see what i can do about that.

[neon_tom]

Oh man, that pink case is incredible!

[swimmingbird]

Great looking board and ano

Would definitely be interested in a HHKB or 65% layout board

[Trente]

I missed the Dr.D GB when I am out of town, and the Chinese HHKB GB as I don't have enough money at that time. So I think I am not missing this group buy again. BTW, would it be possible for Revo team to have a normal or WKL 60% GB here?

[jchan94]

Hyped! Would love to see this be real.

[FoC_Tow]

Oh man, that pink case is incredible!

Ik, why do we even need other color options, right?


Not sure if I'm on the no weight train aswell tbh.

Weights can be nice in some cases, but I imagine the implementation to be strange on a tray style case.

On that Note, what about mounting the plate directly to the top half of the case instead of a bottom mounted pcb?

Eh...top mounted and bottom mounted can provide two different typing experience and i don't like the top mounted style.

About the weight, i still think we don't need it on a 60% keyboard. Maybe next time on TKL.   It's just the keyboard are too samll and i want it to look neat.

[FoC_Tow]

Totally down with that Revo.

To be fair you already had me somewhere between hhkb style, quality anodizing and pink.

+1 about bottom mounted and keeping it clean and minimalist.

[cicada]

Keyboards are like girl's underwear ... the smaller they get, the more expensive they are!

Wodan I need financial advice.. how can one buy all the cool keyboards and still keep his remaining kidney... living with one is hard enough for me

Totally. The more I look at this board the more I hope that it ships exactly like it is in the pictures. It's doing everything right as-is.

Pink case with no weight. That's pretty much perfection right there.

i don't want to insert weight at the moment,so perfect for you.haha

[vegs]

Now I have to decide between this and RAMA's 65%

Why says the kidneys I'm selling were my own?

We should move this conversation to a private place if you want to find out how to fund your keyboard addiction selling kidneys...

[mrmars]

Will this have the same fn layout of the hhkb?

I own one and would not want to learn another fn layout on a keyboard that looks the same.

[ideus]

Programmable PCBs were referred in Reply #7, that means that you can choose any position for the Fn key and any layout for the layers, main and alternate.

[lishi]

WOW this looks great! Definitely interested! So many nice MX HHKB cases coming lately 

[dubious]

dat ano do!

I'd be in, wallet permitting 

[kiwi99]

I like the no weight decision, for a 60 board I wish someone would do nice lightweight designs my backpacks already heavy enough as is 

[poolside]

Nice board!
From the top, with the rounded corners, it looks like a bigger JD45. I like that.
Will have to decide on the pink as well, if this color option makes it to the GB.

I am very interested in this case. I think an  acrylic layer option would be very cool as well.

Pls no

What i want to achieve is one acrylic diffuser that won't change the design.People can choose to use it or not.

So happy to hear this.  The diffuser was my one concern.  I don't plan to use one, and I don't want it to ruin the solid aesthetic you already have.

I find diffusers sometimes break up the solidity of the metal, and make a case look like a bunch of parts, instead of a coherent whole like yours is now.

lots of respect for trying to do this, love the idea of having an optional/hidden diffuser, will look so much cleaner.

I researched a bit, and seems like they are Overcast by MiTo.

They're R5, Overcast is DSA.

I won't change the design. Just trying to add one diffuser cause  i am using b.fake PCB right now and it has underlight. Don't wanna waste it. Anyway if there is a diffuser it won't be too thick. And i think most people won't use it,cause this design right now is good enough.
