Looks so good. The red unit is fire  :thumb:

Any plans for a variety of colors for the knob? Not a deal breaker but would kick the design up a notch, though not a deal breaker. Thanks for bringing this to the community.

Makes me wish there had been a red Macro-1! Now faced with a dilemma: to go red or to match?

The board looks nice but maybe we can get an exploded view? Curious as to how this is going to fit together, seam placement. The Fusion renders seem a bit unpolished namely on the gasket to give this a fair judge, as currently it seems like you are expected to shove it in the hole. Look forward to seeing this evolve though.

Thanks! Yes, we are planning to offer the same knob options as our MACRO-1 GB

Thanks! Yes, I plan on releasing an exploded assembly video in the next few days. For now, here is the MACRO-1 exploded video, the LW-67 has the exact same assembly process :)

God those are nice knobs.

Will you consider a limited run on nicer knobs (like RAMA knobs for Satisfaction75 or more artistic like Chippy's Knobs)?

Also it'd be great if you can tell us the measurements so if people want to get their own machined they can.

We have added a few renders and a question to the poll regarding matching Encoder Knobs, if this is something you would be interested in, be sure to vote!

I love this! ISO would be amazing! Hotswap capability would make this an amazing combo-deal for many ISO users, who have it hard in the MK market already, sadly.
For me, this would be absolute endgame if I could use ISO de, have it be hotswappable, and being this layout with a knob. Hell yea!

Love the layout, the knob, and the lip.
Personally I'd love for the knob to be even bigger, but it's not a dealbreaker.
And as always, split spacebars would be a dream come true.

It’s awesome to see all the feedback that’s come in for this board, a huge thank you to everyone that’s filled it out so far, we really do read every bit of feedback and it does impact the final product <3

We have just received update from the factory that the prototypes are completed and ready to ship, the photos from the factory are looking awesome, we can’t wait to show you!
