    is split space bar an option with a steel plate?

    is an arrow key cluster possible with a narrow right shift and a modified bottom row?

    Glad to see this in motion!

    I had a few questions:

    -The standard PCB's can come with QMK too?

    -Just to be sure, the HHKB top is for the 1/1.5/7/1.5/1 bottom row layout, correct? I'm just double checking because the render shows the 6u version of the top.

    -Also, is the only difference between founders edition and normal edition a numbered weight? If you don't have a Founders Edition, your weight will be clean?

    -Also, will all brass parts be coated to prevent tarnishing? There was no option for that, so fingers crossed.

    I may have to message you later for some changes, as I'm sure I goofed a bit!

    Edit: Are there any color samples? I was wondering what shade of Purple was going to be used.

    Just a suggestion, you should probably put none or 0 on the extras cause some people might misclick or change their mind in the middle of the form. Might cut down on the forms being submitted

    I did this too and ended up reloading the form. I think it's silly how google doesn't let you un-click it.

    Either way, adding an option for 0 should resolve this.

    In addition to the above questions, I noticed there are no indents for bump on feet at the bottom, is it too late to include that if people would like indents?

    Also, any chance of grey being an anode color as well?  :D

    This is from their previous GB, E8-V1.  I am assuming it's the same factory but Exclusive/Jhoang will have to confirm.

    Does the hhkb top use a 6u spacebar? If so why? Every other hhkb custom uses 7u and looks better imo because symmetrical...

    edit: and where am I supposed to find a 6u spacebar wire?

    Split space bar? I think no.

    You can re-map to turn some keys to arrows. We will not support 1u arrows.

    Submitted order :)

    Thanks!  :thumb: :thumb:

    Same, filled out, hope I got founders.

    edit: Decided to go with HHKB top, all the brass options, and where not available the new Microarc Oxidation technology you guys talked about. :)

    Can we go back and change our options after we've submitted the form?

    yea. You can change your options. Or you just need to re-submit another form and note that it's a resubmission.

    In for a founders edition HHKB layout with standard PCB. White microarc top and bottom, black middle, white microarc weight, black name plate, carbon fiber plate. Pretty excited.

    Thank you!

    FINALLY. Glad this is happening!

     :thumb:

    PM sent to see if I can add on a custom text additional name plate to my order

    I will read your PM. But the text should not be too long.  :p

    Is there a album or anything where I can see all the different colors for the aluminum case?

    You can see the colors here: https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=87572.550
    But the colors will be different a little bit. Because we will use another Aluminium and another surface treatment.

    Wondering if it is possible to buy the founder edition from you on Taobao? I don't see an option there...
    neither the standard PCB version

    No. Founders Edition only available on GeekHack and Reddit.

    Submitted for founders and lots of brass options... Still on the fence if I really want it because lots of brass=more price haha

    This buy should be amazing none the less  :thumb:

    Haha. Thank you!  :thumb:

    HHKB, brass, AND QMK. Very excited about what's going on here.

     :thumb:

    Hope I got everything right, sped through that form haha

    Yea, you can edit it later. When I post the table details. No worries.

    Order submitted ;D

    Thanks!  :thumb:

    What part of the case is numbers for founders edition?

    It will be engraved on Counterweight.  :cool:

    I notice a few gaps between the pieces on the prototype. Are those sorted out on the final version?


    Yea. It has been fixed!.  ;D

    Yeah had to make sure I got in on this buy, but just went with regular layout because hhkb ****s with my problem of wanting things symmetrical.
    Ah. I will update the render photo for HHKB layout later. Actually it will be 7u spacebar.


    Just a suggestion, you should probably put none or 0 on the extras cause some people might misclick or change their mind in the middle of the form. Might cut down on the forms being submitted

    I did this too and ended up reloading the form. I think it's silly how google doesn't let you un-click it.

    Either way, adding an option for 0 should resolve this.

    Yea. I will try to edit the form. Google docs is not flexible. I will have a website for our next Group Buy. It will be more convenient for you guys.  :thumb:

    In the prototype photos, are those Hirose stems in Nixdorf switches?  HOLY $|-|1t that is sexy!! I now regret selling off my "extras"...


    Yea haha. Those switches are really rare and beautiful.  :p

    nice
    :thumb:

    Order submitted.

    Hope to get Founders lel.
    Thanks!  :thumb:


    Extremely excited for this. How will we know if our custom logo will be accepted?

    Also, how much bigger is the case with the standard PCB?

    ~0.5cm.  :-\

    Ordered  :thumb:


    Will probobly want to add some name plates on soonish, still thinking about it

     :thumb:

    In! Got any photos of the purple anodization?

    In! Got any photos of the purple anodization?
    This is from their previous GB, E8-V1.  I am assuming it's the same factory but Exclusive/Jhoang will have to confirm.
    Show Image


    It will be more darker than E8.

    Does the hhkb top use a 6u spacebar? If so why? Every other hhkb custom uses 7u and looks better imo because symmetrical...

    edit: and where am I supposed to find a 6u spacebar wire?

    HHKB will use 7u spacebar. The render photo is our first design. I have designed another one. I will update the photo later.  :p

    Glad to see this in motion!

    I had a few questions:

    -The standard PCB's can come with QMK too?

    -Just to be sure, the HHKB top is for the 1/1.5/7/1.5/1 bottom row layout, correct? I'm just double checking because the render shows the 6u version of the top.

    -Also, is the only difference between founders edition and normal edition a numbered weight? If you don't have a Founders Edition, your weight will be clean?

    -Also, will all brass parts be coated to prevent tarnishing? There was no option for that, so fingers crossed.

    I may have to message you later for some changes, as I'm sure I goofed a bit!

    Edit: Are there any color samples? I was wondering what shade of Purple was going to be used.

    In addition to the above questions, I noticed there are no indents for bump on feet at the bottom, is it too late to include that if people would like indents?

    Also, any chance of grey being an anode color as well?  :D

    -The standard PCB's can come with QMK too?
    Yes

    -Just to be sure, the HHKB top is for the 1/1.5/7/1.5/1 bottom row layout, correct? I'm just double checking because the render shows the 6u version of the top.
    Yes! 7u spacebar confirmed!

    -Also, is the only difference between founders edition and normal edition a numbered weight? If you don't have a Founders Edition, your weight will be clean?
    Yea. That's it! FE edition will be included a BRASS Name Plate.  :p

    -Also, will all brass parts be coated to prevent tarnishing? There was no option for that, so fingers crossed.
    We will polish the brass parts. And we maybe coat a nano surface on them.

    Oh, we fixed it! ;) No worries.

    Actually there were too many colors. So grey will not be available this time.  :p

    Nooooo! Everything about this board and its options is perfect, except grey not being offered. Are you sure about not taking it in? Even if ppl are willing to pay more for it?

    Fifth... Also, extra points if you can do Black PVD Coated Brass. I like the weight/feel of brass, but really want monochromatic look :D.
