Daisy

Any more info on this case? Extremely tasteful bezel.

An angled case without bottom, a case-mounted plate and an acrylic diffuser. No weight insert. Its construction is actually quite simple -- presumably inexpensive to make. If the case is fully one-piece that would be more premium IMO.  :-* But the diffuser does make it lightweight to carry around which is one of the tentpoles of 40%.

Btw in my experience the Daisy PCB is the most user-friendly when it comes to programming. No software to install or command line needed whatsoever. Just http://www.keyboard-layout-editor.com and https://kai.tkg.io.

After a good cleaning of course...

Decided to try one of those "family photos" kinda things. Need to align them better. And actually include all pictures.

This makes me want to grow my collection further. I love these family photos.

Can we get them to build the Alps ten feet higher and get Cherry to pay for it?

Definitely makes it lighter as one would assume. Which is fine if you're not one to regularly hammer the spacebar. I normally rest both thumbs right on the bar so it's nice in that it requires a subtle touch to actuate, but I have to consciously press it still; I don't accidentally press it.

Hmm ok, nice. Also great choice with the tx1800. The v1 looks better than the v2 with diffuser (metal or otherwise) imo.

v1 ftw, I should note I have tiny hands, I'll write up an update for the aluminium spacebar on the vblacks once I ship that board out to the old friend I made it for, they have much larger hands.

This one pictured is a mkc grey aluminium case with detachable invoice feet I got in I think 2014.  I like it because I can lay it flat with no incline.
