Post by: Rob27shred on Sun, 13 October 2019, 09:05:15: What a striking design! I really love the yellow/black/white case (I'm a Yinzer what do you expect? :)))! I think it would go perfect with JTK Yolch or GMK Serika. Gonna have to keep an eye on this one for sure. While I have gotten away from using 60% boards lately, I always wanted a high end custom 60% as those are the boards that really drew me into this rabbit hole. I've seen a few designs lately that really caught my eye, but this one might be enough to get me to reach for my wallet!

Post by: CodeMayhem on Sun, 13 October 2019, 09:47:12: how long will the gb last? bc i just joined key65 and have to wait til the end of oct. to join dracula so i'm gonna need til about the 9th to have the money...and i think other ppl are in a similar spot. September and October have been rough on our wallets.

Yes, universal 60% PCB will fit it. But since it is a fixed-layout keyboard, so we prepared PCB with fixed switch footprints. We think it looks simpler and nicer.

Nope, this project will handle by me and the manufactory behind is faster and better.

Post by: caronte0 on Mon, 14 October 2019, 07:19:50: The design looks stunning, i really like it. Would love to see it in regular 60 or 65%. Also would be great if you could add to increase the height (for my personal taste 5º is a little bit low)

Post by: Mcnos on Mon, 14 October 2019, 08:20:41: What plate options will be available?

Would love a Polycarb or Half Plate option
Title: Re: [IC] KN2.10², 60% keyboard kit in WK, WKL and HHKB.
Post by: VXQN on Tue, 15 October 2019, 06:27:11: I would say leave the height as-is, so many boards are 7, 8, 9 degrees, and having it a little lower helps to differentiate. The user can always prop the board up a little more if they want to, but you can't "prop it down".

Post by: LuiKang on Wed, 16 October 2019, 09:49:14: Would love to see RGB glow, either side or underglow. PC bottom would also be sufficient.
Title: Re: [IC] KN2.10², 60% keyboard kit in WK, WKL and HHKB.
Post by: _PixelNinja on Wed, 16 October 2019, 10:29:41: It would have been awesome if there were a way to finish the backweight so it would match the accent color (plate)... My only true issue with the case is the the bottom front being raised in relation to the back — I never understood that design choice ever since seing the private GB units. Other than than that I love the design.

Looking forward to this board

Love the design, just hoping the price will be in my budget.
