Hi Everyone,
We are the new customization team "CHAOSERA". In 2021, 75% keyboard becomes more and more popular. Since this is the first keyboard from our team, and we want to make something different.

Highlight
- Clean Case Design
We aimed to finish the keyboard free of any visible screws on both sides, both top, and bottom.
- Magnet F-row decoration block
We use a magnet base to make the F-row decoration block hot-swappable. It is easy for users to change the decoration block to keys without and screws. There also will be more kinds of decoration blocks in the future. Users can even create their own decoration block.
- All Included
Plate poron foam, bottom poron foam, aluminum plate, PC plate, F-row decoration block, and stabilizers are all included. Users just need to buy switches and good to go.
- Easy to assemble
We rethought and redesigned the assembly method of the inner part of the gasket structure. Users do not need to stick the poron foam to the case anymore.

I don't really understand how the magnetic piece is supposed to work, any prototypes that show this feature?

Very unique take on the 75% layout, as well as a cool badge to alter the layout further. Are there any more renders/photos of the badge applied? does one have to take the switches out for the badge to be applied? GLWIC

I am quite a fan of this take on a 75. Only thing I kind of wished it had was a 7u bottom row, but aside from that, very interesting. Will keep an eye on the progress on this one.

Are you going to keep the north facing PCB?

Yes, the switches are needed to be taken away to apply the badge.

The PCB is not the final version. we will do the interest check later to decide the final PCB.

Seems like full size right shift, 2 column nav cluster keyboards are catching on. Might have to start calling them 77% ;D.

buy some PE foam for like 5$ and ur good to go for the next 100 boards all you need to do then is cut it to shape and maybe some holes for the stabhousing. Unless ur so lazy that u would rather pay 15$ for one small sheet of it.

Hello everyone, sorry for waiting a long time. Many people want to know the time of GB. Because lots of person hope us can change the north-facing to south-facing flex with cut on PCB. We did it but because of the epidemic, the factory is closing. The photo looks like simple, because it only has texting sample of PCB board patch. So it has not SMT.  After we will put better one on. 
We change the RGB light , only the F row module has.
And because of the epidemic, the factory is closed, the release day will be later,We will announce the specific time according to the actual progress again.(about 30-45 days).
We promise to do our best about “EAU-chaosera”. Not to disappoint everyone's wait, thank you!

Is there a weight to this board? If I decide to keep using the F rows all the time, can the block be used as weight(having the block with heavier materials like brass)?
