Build Stream
Typing Test
Hi everyone! My name is Juan (juaninamilli) of daji Keyboards.
I'm quite active in the hobby as an enthusiast and fan of many projects from a lot of wonderful designers and content creators in the space.
I have been in the hobby since 2017 and some of my favorite designs come from the OGs like OTD, LZ, Matrix, LinWorks, TGR, etc.
daji has successfully fulfilled Seis Cinco (privately) and recently finalized fulfillment of Ocho Cuatro. Both outside of GeekHack.
An ode to the board that originally inspired it. The IDB60 was always one of my favorite boards to type on. When I started working on my own 60%, it originally had a similar burger mount with slightly simpler assembly. That changed, literally, 30 minutes after Geon was gracious enough to offer his Tadpoles to designers. With the help of the ever talented Trifelife, I was able to fulfill my dream of a BT Custom. Together (me with some ideas, him with literally everything else) we were able to create a reliable and user friendly BT system. Over a year later and FINALLY....
I am proud to present...
Seis Cero
It has a similar/familiar design language to my previous projects as I like my projects to evolve slightly from the one before it. It offers unique features like BT (optional) and the use of the forementioned Geon Tadpoles that mount directly on the PCB tabs. Mounting style is important, but isn't everything when it comes to a well rounded experience. My obsessive need for a nice spacebar/alphas and experience with past projects has helped with getting everything dialed in with just two prototyping rounds. Whether you build plateless, add a plate or both; there is something here for every 60% lover.
I will be posting a Google Form soon to help establish interest in this project as it will affect final pricing.
In addition, there are several questions I'd love answered. For instance, optional plate materials or thoughts on having a "base" wired model to help with costs or go full in with BT.
Once interest is gathered, we will be moving to group buy fairly quickly.
*Photos of internals and PCB will be posted once I have the board back from Lighting. Hope you're feeling better my friend!
We look forward to hearing about your thoughts and please feel free to ask any questions.

Is the price range going to be determined via interest check responses or this indicative of the sale format being a raffle? Excited for this project, nonetheless!

Will be determined by the interest check. I won't know how to price it (due to volume pricing) until I have an idea of demand. Thanks for the interest!

The Denim color of the photos and the render is quite a night and day, the former is rather dark blue/navy-ish while the latter is light/softer blue, which one is the most accurate or the final one?
Anyway, this project piques my interest in so many aspects, GLWIC :thumb:
It's just lighting. I have pictures of that exact board in different lighting and it looks almost identical to the render. That's why I put a disclaimer at the beginning of the renders. There are just too many variables to be able to tell you how it will look on your desk.

PCB design looks interesting, I wonder what the typing feel is like.Lightning describes it well here. It's definitely not a hard feel, but it's not to anxiously bouncy like some pcb mounts can be.
that was supposed to have been timestamped. Go to 2:05:35.

Just posted a video of the Lighting build w/ GMK. Special guest appearance by Charcoal and Violet color samples. I should have Denim in next week and I'll make sure to post that in consistent lighting w/ the other colors. There are also additional videos and images of the color samples the the updates section of our discord server. https://discord.gg/Ue4M48Ea A stream is being planned w/ one our favorite streamers and that will be announced soon. For now... have a great weekend everyone!
