[IC]Typewriter68 custom retro keyboard
« on: Fri, 09 November 2018, 00:01:58 »
Hi,guys!  I'm a keyboard player form China.
So my English is very poor,This is also my first post,I hope you can understand.
I started playing the custom keyboard from three years ago.Have paid tuition, have won praise, and basically play all the author's work in the circle.
So i'm thinking of a custom keyboard in my mind.It's Retro Typewriter68.



Typewriter68 separate design with upper and lower cover,this looks like a whole, and the overall appearance is very strong.
There is no traditional upper and lower cover to merge the gap in the middle.The top cover integrates the positioning plate,accuracy is very good,the keycap is installed on Typewriter68 you can't see the switch,even can't see the gap at the bottom of the keycap.
Replaceable custom nameplate design leave the player a custom space.
(That means there are logos that can be painted, rgb light area, and nameplates that can be customized.)
When you are tired of the unchanging 80% keyboard and standard 60% keyboard,let's use it.


The pcb powered by bootmapper,full key customization.with type-c port.
Matching support iso,including backspace splitting.
The cover is considered to add a version without a direction key,personally feel that removing the arrow keys is also a good choice.
In addition, the top left button is a 1U two 1.25U,the original design concept was to consider almost all of the key caps in the circle are neither part of GMK original height nor SA R1 height.
This brings a problem:80% keyboard's ESC is a separate area,installing a unique height personality keycap does not affect the overall look and feel.But the ESC of the 60% keyboard is closely attached to the number keys,so it’s very uncomfortable to have a height difference with a personality keycap.
So this time, I took it out alone and formed two 1.25U ectopic areas like the old keyboard.(There are many 1.25U characters in the SA kits)


Here are some sample picture:





The group buy will come soon.(The initial plan is from November 12th to November 30th.)

Like most of it, Don't like the font of the Typewriter on the top left.

Also don't like the other text.

Your branding on the bottom is enough in my opinion. Maybe a logo instead? Kind of like the CA66?

Any chance of a split Backspace to make it a HHKB layout?

This looks really good actually - as long as you get rid of all the logo and writing across the top area.

Given its your first GB - if it happens - I think its important you explain to people how you will run the gb to ensure there arent any critical hiccups.

Ik you have samples so there will be no change, but i would be totally in if there would be NO HKKB option and a custom engrave on that top part.

Very interested, really solid overall design and really well realized.

Concerned with the complexity though; there is a lot of room for error, delays, manufacturing problems.

Agree that the board would look better without text, or with a custom option. I like the narrower bottom row.

If the custom engraving is not an option, how about replacing it with a simple logo/emblem?

I also agree with this, this has a good potential but in the current state the GB would be pretty empty imho. 
We are starting to forget the point of ICs, Op please don't rush the gb on this

OP showed there are both options, ANSI and ISO. 

I think he means keep the layout like it is for the rest (e.g. hhkb and so on), which i DISAGREE.

2 top options would be great, both HHKB for weird people and NO HHKB and 6.25u spacebar for smart people /s

That reminds me more of 8-bit home computers from the 1980's than of typewriters TBH.

I just noticed that a Group Buy for the Typewriter68 came up on zF now, cool!
I have some questions though.

1. How thick is the plate and how thick can it be made? This keeb seam super solid so I'm hoping the plate to be massive.
2. The colors shown was (to me) kind of "meeh", I think this design deserves gold and and more extravagant colors.
(personally I would love to see a green color option)

Here are the colors:

Interested in this too.

Anyway seems like someone totally skipped IC stage again. 

Questions:

- Now that there is a non-HHKB option, what bottom rows we can use? just the 1.5-1-1.5-7u or other bottom rows too, e.g. 1.25x3+6.25
- The non engraved option, what will not be non-engraved? just the text on the diagonal piece or by picking non-engraved we also pick to not engrave "Typewriter"
- Brass nametag is customizable, but the page to customize it doesn't work at moment

On the Zfrontier page, it appears that the logo will be in "normal font"  Not sure what that means, but it has to be better than what we see in the photos.  Thankfully, the engraving that many do not like is optional and you can have it blank.  Also, you can opt for a standard bottom row if you're not into HHKB style.  All in all, it's a pretty cool board.  Just wish there was more communication going on here.

You can pay extra to have e-coat white on both the mid and top piece.

Do you have a better picture of what the green looks like?  Also, can we have some more details on the PCB - is it 3- or 5- pin and (presumably) it is *not* hotswap?

EDIT: I'm confused - can you get the whole keyboard in green or only the "mid-piece" (whatever that is??)?

Thanks.

Thank you for replying.

1.6mm is disappointing for a keyboard at this level. Look at the Doro67 it has a 4mm plate, the Zeal60 has a 5mm. A tick plate gives a ridgid, high end feeling which a thin one can't compare with.
I hope you can consider a ticker plate, preferably as tick as the Zeal as everything else in your design is top level.

oh!the plate and the middle frame are integrated,so when you actually get it,is a whole,quite thick.

Because Chinese people don't have green players in the whole shell, so there is no physical picture of the whole shell.
and there is pcb sample:

I just noticed that a Group Buy for the Typewriter68 came up on zF now, cool!
I have some questions though.

1. How thick is the plate and how thick can it be made? This keeb seam super solid so I'm hoping the plate to be massive.
2. The colors shown was (to me) kind of "meeh", I think this design deserves gold and and more extravagant colors.
(personally I would love to see a green color option)

Here are the colors:

the plate is 1.6mm thick and the middle frame is 9.6mm thick.
Thank you for replying.

1.6mm is disappointing for a keyboard at this level. Look at the Doro67 it has a 4mm plate, the Zeal60 has a 5mm. A tick plate gives a ridgid, high end feeling which a thin one can't compare with.
I hope you can consider a ticker plate, preferably as tick as the Zeal as everything else in your design is top level.

oh!the plate and the middle frame are integrated,so when you actually get it,is a whole,quite thick.

Check this out, all these high-end keyboards have at least a 4mm plate.
I'm sorry to say, but a 1.6mm makes this awesome project less interesting for me. Would it have a solid 4 or 5mm plate I would be all over it :)

Doro67 4mm integrated plate


Rama Koyo 4.5mm integrated plate


Zeal Zephyr 5mm brass plate

Do you have a better picture of what the green looks like?  Also, can we have some more details on the PCB - is it 3- or 5- pin and (presumably) it is *not* hotswap?

EDIT: I'm confused - can you get the whole keyboard in green or only the "mid-piece" (whatever that is??)?

Thanks.

Because Chinese people don't have green players in the whole shell, so there is no physical picture of the whole shell.
and there is pcb sample:

no,i mean no one in China is doing all green.If you want, we can do it for you.

i am tempted to give up my CA66 spot and get this instead.

This is a confusing gb so here are my questions:

-What is the mid-piece? Is that the integrated plate?
-I see that there is a green housing option now. Any samples?
-Where do input our own text for brass engraving?
-Non-engraved means it won't have that long sentence on the top of the case?  If we choose "engraved" does that mean we can put in our own text?  If so, where do we input that?

After 3 days of GB, these links still aren't working...
 
   
Also still isn't clear: 
- which is the part that we can decide to NOT engrave, which one of the two? The "Typewriter" or the long disney random text?   
- Did typewriter changed font yes or no?     
- So can the keyboard support 1.25x3+6.25 standard bottom row on the non-hhkb version, yes or no? (from your last reply seems like no, but to be sure i just ask it again, can you make it compatible with the standard bottom-row on the non-hhkb layout?)

1.two part can decide to NOT engrave,include "Typewriter" and text.
2.yes.You can show the font you want in the post.
3.no,incompatible.
by the way,GB page problem i have contacted zfrontier,they will make changes soon. Thanks!

1.there is integrated plate.
2.because no one in China choose all green,so I only have “part” green sample.

3.you can find this on the GB page.

4.the long sentence carved only on the side of the case,you can put in our own text,also input by email.

I want to explain here about the thickness of the plate
This keyboard is a integrated middle frame and plate.Well known,the material and casing of the plate are different,but I use the same material.It is equivalent to doing this integrated plate with the standard of the casing,so its reliability can be guaranteed.We are willing to use so much material to make such a retro shell,without thickening the plate,because I think thick plates can affect the feel.Don't influence your opinion because of the appearance of several thick plate products.Thick plates do not necessarily bring a better feel.I don't want to see the vibration feedback of the switch affected by the thickness of the plate.
