[IC]Revo HHKB layout kit

[nsmechkb]

Hey Revo,


Any chance for a beige anode? Something like the light bronze in this picture:http://www.saf.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Anodized-Finishes-Website.jpg

I think this would look amazing!  But I know I won't choose anything over pink.

[poolside]

Gold would be a neat 5th color. 

Hard to find a keyset that would go with a gold keyboard. I'd prefer something more neutral like light blue.

Nantucket Selectric with the red accent caps pairs up nicely with gold.

[ihalatch]

Yes, I'm in.

[lanyusea]

I will definitely buy two if there are pink color option.

[chevovish]

This is exciting. I missed the ducky viper gb and am glad I came cross this.

[Unforgivable]

Revoteam, when will this wonderful group buy start? Itching for polycarbonate plates! So excited! I wonder what the mystery color will be!

[OfTheWild]

Do we have an estimated timeframe for when these are going to be made? I'd love to build one.

[luumii]

Really need this in my life.

[lishi]

Any timeline on this going to GB phase? I'm hyped for this 

[loud_asian]

Revo mentioned that they'll run this after Dr. D TKL has finished

Yeah looks like we're going to have to wait at least a couple weeks, probably more, due to the issues with the anodising factory. Nobody's fault really although I just sold a bunch of artisans and stuff to fund this so I'm pretty keen.

[mintyfruits]

I'm extremely interested in this! Really hoping the GB starts soon!

We appreciate the work you're doing. Get well soon

[mintyfruits]

Revo, is there any way to get some pictures of the black version?

[Rykno]

Will I be able to adapt an existing PCB like a FaceW or GON to fit inside this case? just reconfigure/resolder the bottom row with the case lip in mind?
thank you for your help this looks like the perfect case for a sturdy hhkb clone

thank you, I apologize for making people repeat themselves I didn't do a thorough enough search trying to find that answer

[luumii]

Seriously so hyped about this

How is the anodizing on this? How scratch resistant is it?

[Perfex]

How is the anodizing on this? How scratch resistant is it?

Revo stated in the first post he will be using the same anode factory as Apple.

[robotmaxtron]

How is the anodizing on this? How scratch resistant is it?

He said earlier in the thread that it should be very scratch resistant.

Sorry, but where was this mentioned? The only relevant comments I've read from Revo are here: https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=86279.msg2319623;topicseen#msg2319623

But I haven't seen any comments saying that the anode will be scratch resistant.

Just don't want to set anyone up for disappointment.

Usually the apple aluminum anodizing has been of higher quality than most other techniques used on other aluminum keyboards.

Not to say they are super scratch resistant but I was wondering if it is of Apple quality where it is harder to scratch.

I am sorry. It's not scratch resistant. I dont have the machine to test it if it's harder than the normal ones. So,just treat it like a normal one. Btw,this anode is from Apple macbook,not iphone. It may be not be that good. But it's still better than others i think.

Sorry bro, i never said that.

We have test the hard-anode scratch resistant 7075 and it's not that good and it has so many problems with the colors.

Yep,you can use FaceU and GH60. I don't have a GON,so i don't know if it will fit.

[RevoTeam]

I think this would look amazing!  But I know I won't choose anything over pink.

Pink is really sick! We only made 2 last time. This is really a good choice.

[RevoTeam]

Revo, is there any way to get some pictures of the black version?

unfortunately i wont be making any more samples.But i will show some picture of black keyboard we made.

I never thought people want to see black version because black is black.I dont think there will be any difference between blacks.

[mintyfruits]

No worries. I know black is black but I'd still like to see it! Was really wanting to gauge *how* black it is, or if it's more like a dark charcoal gray.

[RevoTeam]

No worries. I know black is black but I'd still like to see it! Was really wanting to gauge *how* black it is, or if it's more like a dark charcoal gray.

eh...it's more black.I'll try to get it done as black as it can be.On the other hand i do have a  gray color.

Have you ever seen my keypad on Massdrop? It will be darker than that.

Well I just looked up the keypad on massdrop.

If these cases are available in purple I'm gonna need to much more seriously consider getting one.

Purple would be amazing. Red too, but Revo said he won't be doing red. 

[FoC_Tow]

Pink is lyve my friends. <3

Who needs another purple or red board when there's pink? xD
And why do people always want red anyway? Most overdone color not only in customs, but pretty much anything pc related imo

I think I was the only one who requested red. My reason for wanting red is to have something similar to a red Kmac Happy. Regardless, I'll still be jumping on this group buy. Revo makes nothing but good stuff! 

[Daphen]

I'd love an HHKB layout with split space. Is there anything like that out there?
This is amazingly pretty.

Since the case is tray mount if you can find a plate/pcb that supports split space you should be able to use it in this case
