It is not possible to announce a clear date yet. I'm sorry.

And with regard to the WKL and HHKB blocks that we received a lot from you, we are considering adding them.
We also plan to manufacture a PC version of the case.

Hi, everyone.
I was received prototype(But Failure).
The image has been updated.
I will update it as soon as we receive the latest proto.

Until then, enjoy the typing sound of this keyboard!

I I contact KBDfans through Discord on a regular basis (about a week).
And I'm asking for new news and photos of prototypes in production, but KBDfans says they didn't send them from the factory.
I will contact you again tomorrow.

Sorry for being late.

I am for sure interested, but it depends on the color offered. KBDFans usually has Navy Blue as a choice. I'd go with that, or Orange. HHKB ideal.

Hi, I will respond to your request.
This is...Add WKL and HHKB design.

I kept refusing corner blocker. Because I don't like the appearance very much.
But Although it is a tray mount, I modified it to separate it into a top case and a bottom case.
By purchasing an additional top case, you can freely choose the layout by replacing your favorite plate and PCB on the market.
(This is the merit of tray mount)

The problem is now.
I need to ask for additional prototypes.
However, the current factory has not yet delivered a perfect prototype for me. (Paid in March)

If this design is good for you, order a prototype, and if the addition of WKL or HHKB is not very important, I will open GB soon.

Please opinion of Geek

I think the current design looks pretty good. I also think you should add WKL and HHKB options since a lot of people like those layouts, and thus, many more people will be interested in buying this case if you add them.

KBDfans have some factory.

I kept waiting and was suggested to change the factory. I decided that there was a possibility of a great delay in mass production, so I will asked another factory for the next prototype and mass production. The distributor and shipping etc. are the same with KBDfans.

I'd be in for a black version.  Also REALLY like the idea of just having the "無" engraved in the weight rather than the full name of the board.  I have some PCBs that would work with this case so I'll be watching for more updates

Maybe Not Yet.
In order to check compatibility, you will need to make another prototype again.
As soon as it finishes, it starts GB.

Sorry for spending too much time.

This has evolved quite a bit since the IC was first published. It's looking pretty good now aesthetically.

Are you planning on the 6 standard tray mount points? Or will you do 4 or 5 post, or have removable posts like Grid 600 and newer Mekanisk boards?

REDESIGN Uncertainty60 PAGE



I value the opinions of GeekHack users.
It's an important element, even if you're alone.
Spec was updated and the design was modified. Thanks for your post.

Add Render.
I will try to render better.
(Aluminum renders only "rose gold" to avoid color confusion.)

We will do our best for the price.

Proto had some design defects.
Redesign and reproduction.
And, this production include mount points fixed.
But I cannot receive message from KBDfans long time.

The design is undoubtedly impressive. The only matter is the vendor. I experienced once with KBDfans when I was ordering the hot swap PCB from them. It took me 3 weeks for a wrong tracking product, then more than 2 months for a regular hot swap PCB to be shipped to my house. Then it has turned out the package I received wasn't the pcb I wanted. In stead, it was a small square box with a piece of something that I don't even what it is. More than 3 months for unexpected stuff then I swear to God I will never come back to them ever again.

Yes, your bitter experience.

However, the potential for trouble is present in every transaction and will never be 0%.
I chose KBDfans as a vendor because even beginners can easily buy a keyboard and keep the price down.

Just as I chose KBDfans, you can choose not to buy with KBDfans, and I will not deny it at all.
The purchase of the product should be made at your will.

Thanks for rating Uncertainty60.
I hope you can choose freely.

Hi, simple update report

The prototype posted the other day had some flaws.
Therefore, at least another prototype is required. Currently redesigned from scratch, 80% of the work has been completed.

The basic appearance does not change, but the brass weight has changed.
The details will be posted at a later date.

Also, due to the redesign, the weight may be lower than originally expected.

Currently, KBDfans are busy and cannot be contacted immediately.
Since the Chinese New Year is coming soon, it is expected that it will take some time.

I'm sorry.

Any chance on a purple version being produced? Just got into the keyboard building community and was scrolling through ICs and this design caught my eye.

Also, any timeline on when we can expect the group buy to begin? Interested in purchasing one purple and one black.
