Dark green?
What's the appeal? Because it is a Military color? Or does it match color well with caps?

The Legend of Zelda mostly. Dark Green + a brass weight. :P

You could name it.......The Legend of Fjellda?

Ordered a Gon yesterday intending to put it into my Fjell build, just bought the Zeal60 today. Not sure which one I will use now......

I will let you know if there are updates. Currently deciding the manufacturer, probably invoices after that. Also slow now due to CNY.

OMG, the photos look like renders!

It's brutal to be only looking for that I am looking for a nice tray-mount case.
Hope there'll be round 2, round 3 etc.
Appealing designs deserve to survive.

Production prototype files are done.

I am just waiting for factory to be back after CNY holidays so I can submit the files and buy the, hopefully, final prototype.

Thanks for your patience.

Some one here has to have some sympathy for this poor bastard, being rejected is a horrendous feeling.  I know it all too well if i piss off the Mrs for what ever reason, so I know your grief reececonrad.

Some geekhacker here should give this guy his order so all his dreams can be answered and hopefully he doesn't grow up to be some kind of homicidal maniac, who was denied owning an FJELL keyboard casing  :o .

I was under the impression that the dropped spots would be raffled to those who didn't win? That seems like the most fair way to do things. Lol.

Anyways, looking forward to seeing more updates. Love the case!

When it comes to this FJELL casing all human rights and morals disappear out the window because certain individuals here would do anything for this  8) .

In a just and decent world people like this would get what they want but alas we live in this perverted, insane reality called Geekhack, which all whom dwell here hope to grab something of significance before slipping down into the bowels of the earth for one last time.

Those who want this keyboard need to be locked in a dark room with knives and only one can walk out alive, with an FJELL casing to their name  :thumb: .

The hopefully, final sample is in. The keyboard seems to fit well and there are just some minro machining marks to be seen.

This is the grey sample but the pictures has a blue tint, i can assure you that it is 100% dark grey/slate

Yeah, I noticed the machining marks and the blue tint of the photo, but it looks like it's coming together. Seems like it's the fine details at this point and the QA.
