I am still patiently waiting for my grey TX75...it's been a long time. My patience is testing me.

Any update on that, kin?
Sorry.. :-(
I am also waiting them.
Everyday I called factory and asked how they were going on..
Now.. They are in anodizing factory.
But it is not the signal of finishing.
In anodizing process All problems happen.
So.. We need more patience.

If you don't want to buy it, plz let me know..
I will refund all money.
I don't like debt.

Im confused, are there new TX75s being made?

I thought this was only Stock boards...
Any new black boards available kin? xD

aznreaper · « **Reply #801 on:** Mon, 06 March 2017, 08:28:53 »

There was an initial interest check for the boards while they were getting made, but kin has switched to only selling stock due to the way his tx1800 GB went. I believe he sold out his stock so he started another run of boards. Just message him on telegram if you want one.

Those that have assembled their TX-Pad and TX-87... There are a couple of small 4mm M3 screws included. I thought they were supposed to screw down the switch plate to the bottom housing. I however have huge problems with this. It is as the screw holes in the bottom housing are too small for the included screws. I have applied some force but no no avail. I could try to push them down even harder but not ready to do so in fear of slipping and scratching. I aslo think that if more force is applied, the threads will be screwed up.

How did you guys secure your switch plate?

Edit:
Also why is there 16mm and 15mm M3 screws? Which one am I supposed to use? I just tried with the 15mm and they seem to work. Screwed my TX-Pad together using those without securing the switch plate with the 4mm ones. Seems to work, but still wondering what all the different screws are for?

You can use 15mm and 16mm both.
15mm is hexagon bolts
16mm is + bolts.

Thank you. I didn't want to sound mean, but I was wondering about the status. The TX-75 still looks great but since it is taking so long, it's not a GB and there is so much keyboard stuff out there right now I decided to skip it after all. Have a great wekend as well!

I've had my TX-75 for awhile now and I love this damn thing. I swapped back to my Black Bird and there is a noticeable drop in quality (IMO). I'm really excited for those 1800 boards to be available.

I am surprised that I've been using the TX75 for awhile now. I didn't like 75%.
Had both Octagon v1 and v2. Sold a week or two after they were built.

Factory made them slowly.

Finally factory finished producing.

Factory will start producing Txcp and tx1800 v2.
It will take more than 2 months.

Is the PCB programmable? If so how
ISO fully supported? (ISO enter, split left shift) as well as split backspace?

I'm not sure what layout I want to go with for this one, so I want to keep my options open

It is fully reprogrammable but the program's name is slipping my name right now, I can find the download link when I get home.

Does it support features such as tap vs hold? e.g. In QMK

Quote

...
MT(mod, kc) - is mod (modifier key - MOD_LCTL, MOD_LSFT) when held, and kc when tapped. In other words, you can have a key that sends Esc (or the letter O or whatever) when you tap it, but works as a Control key or a Shift key when you hold it down.
...

Or can the PCB be converted to run QMK?

I have to agree. Liking it more and more as I'm putting more time on it. Possibly the heft + brass plate gives a very satisfying "thock" with every stroke. Plus being able to customize it for my Mac is a huge bonus.

Should just be a normal sale. In speaking with him awhile ago, PCB's and plates are just about wrapped up and boards will probably be available some time around end of April - mid May. Specific time varying due to me not remember exactly what he said.

Has he said a price yet?

Negative Ghost Rider... Shouldn't be long to offer them up though since proto is looking good. Wonder if he's doing a mfg run and then will sell or he'll do it as a standard-operation GB??

Should just be a normal sale. In speaking with him awhile ago, PCB's and plates are just about wrapped up and boards will probably be available some time around end of April - mid May. Specific time varying due to me not remember exactly what he said.

Next week..at first Plate s will arrive..
I will take preorders of assembling service.

Tx1800v2 with brass is $420.
Color : black, silver, grey, red, blue.

Assembling service (included all parts) is $130.
(Parts are vintage switches, films, springs, leds, stabilizers, lub and soldering)

Shipping day is 15 May.

Loving the new chamfered top edge. Can't wait to order one.
This is proto..
Chamfer will be changed to rounding.

I do love that edges.
