Do I need another TKL?

Me: No

Will this be added to my collection?

Me: Yes

What the the grammage of the spring refers to? Bottom out or actuation?
Is it possible to get more of those springs like as an extra?
Do you have any other videos of the keyboards ?

 - This is the pressure notation when the spring is pressed all the way down.

 - This precision spring has high production price. So We didn't make this spring for sale all the time. we won't always be selling it.
You can order additional springs only with your keyboard order.

Look at the comparison picture of our spring.

 - We want to post more videos, but we are moving our office. Soon after the move is complete, I will post a video with the environment.

Since the number of keyboards we make varies, and the number of available colors continues to increase, we cannot show samples for all colors.

I'll post some photos. but Champagne Gold, Rose Gold, and Cerakoat Yellow are new colors, so please understand that there are no samples yet.

These three colors were not planned, but were added due to suggestions from IC. If we have a chance, we will try to show you the sample.

This keyboard is a TKL keyboard from the beginning.
And you can make two-tone by combining different colors of top and bottom. Many photos are like this.

For PCB, we will upload detailed photos soon. We don't have a lot of PCBs in stock, so we're going to show you a picture of the existing inventory. New PCBs for GB may have some changes.

WKL only received small orders. So we only made a small amount.
we have sent all the inventory we have made, we currently do not have any.
Instead, we are preparing to render a WKL version, so please be patient.

We are currently designing alps plates. If there are no special problems, it will keep the thickness of 4mm. PCBs are available in both Cherry and Alps.

Also, I just want to make sure, the "point plate" is the weight? I'm not sure what "adding color points" means. Thanks in advance!

The point plate goes under the keyboard.
It's commonly referred to as 'weight', but it's an option for those who don't want the keyboard to get heavier and who want to use aluminum plates made of different colors instead of weight.

In short, it is a weight using aluminum.

Will the Alps plates be available during the GB period or only after? I’ve been waiting for an Alps TKL kit and this looks perfect, but I don’t want to buy a kit now on the hope that Alps plates will become available at some point.

If it is a minor modification that does not require a change in the invoice, it is okay not to notify us until the end of GB. We will gather all the information at the end of the order. We set Form as modifiable for that.

Whether GMK SCREW-IN STABILISERS can be used？

What size is the space bar? And are Durock
Screw in stabilizers compatible with this? Thank you.

The PCB and casing are designed for standard cherry stabilizer. Third-party products such as screw-in stabilizer are available, but may need to be partially sanded.

You mention Alps plates will be released later. Any additional details on that? Specifics around the plate materials/thickness (assume not 4mm) or timeframe?

We are currently designing alps plates. If there are no special problems, it will keep the thickness of 4mm. PCBs are available in both Cherry and Alps.
Will the Alps plates be available during the GB period or only after? I’ve been waiting for an Alps TKL kit and this looks perfect, but I don’t want to buy a kit now on the hope that Alps plates will become available at some point.

Seconding this. What is the ETA on Alps plates?

Hello chanmin kang,

first of all, thank you for your information, I have paid for your invoice since I really love your board :)

second, I would like to know the width and depth where you insert the USB type C cable please ? I have purchased a cable with 12mm (0.47") of width and 6mm (0.24") of depth, will it fit just fine or not really ?

The order period ended without any problems. It's all over until just a little grace period.

If you have not paid yet, you will be given a period until June 3.

The payment must be completed before June 4th will be processed normally. Failure to complete before June 4th will result in the cancellation of the invoice and cancellation of the order.

We are organizing the completed order. We will update the new content on June 4th! Please wait!

The rear connector part has been machined.
As you know, DGL takes a long time to manufacture because there are many parts.

We decided to make more frequent updates. I will update it if there are any simple changes.
Title: Re: [GB] DGL TKL keyboard | Closed

I want to make mention of something here: it does not sit well that the springs that were sent early to buyers for "early review" were placed in the shipment line for tracking on the invoice. It also does not sit well that the tracking number of my package does not match the tracking number placed inside of the PayPal invoice. I think it's dishonest to mark the invoice shipped days after payment for a minor item in a larger project. It also requires an explanation to case investigators should someone seek to file a dispute claim.

I petition that marking early shipments of minor items on a major order on PayPal invoices is, moving forward, a flag for review. This is not buyer-centric and highly sus'.

Have you been reading this thread or the thread for his other incomplete GB (Kkingkkong 660)?

Most buyers have either submitted a Paypal dispute and successfully received a refund without any reply from the GB runner or are holding out for updates until as close to the dispute deadline as possible. Chanmin has vanished: Doesn't reply here, doesn't reply on Discord, doesn't reply to emails - I'd be surprised if either of his boards get shipped.

Still bummed this turned out to be a scam. Was really looking forward to it. Someone steal borrow this design without the prolapse usb port and take my money again plz

Did you get your money back?
Every last penny. hopefully everyone disputed before it was too late
