Did this require approval? Would explain why I got an email alert for it, but couldn't find the thread. Has happened in the past to me as well...time to head to the bug reports thread :D
Ooohh, more plates!
I can't buy these plates! They're backwards :P

hahah yeah i pressed tab and then enter by accident, not just enter. Derp.
Thank you.
Can you still open the switch after installing this plate or not? If you can then I'm definitely in for one!Yes :)
Yes, and I'll be modding the 2x switches so that you can open those as well

is that your address in the google form? because I could pick them up (i go to school 10 min away) instead you shipping them, to lower the cost and save packing material.

Apologies beast, I realized I messed up on my address too. I got too excited and didn't read. Resubmitting order.

are you sure?
sad anyways. still ordered 2 plates.
Awesome - ordered :D
I think I did the address right (although I have only just woken up so it could be entirely wrong...)
Edit: Was that Tipro part of any use in the end?

I haven't even tried it yet. Too busy with other stuff

Fair enough - I know that feeling! I assume my order went through alright and the address is ok?
Cheers buddy :D What stabilisers do you need for these?

You can use cherry PCB or plate mount. Costar can work, but you might have to sand the plate down a bit.
Costar needs around 0.060" thickness and these plate will be around 0.0625"
Missing stabilizers. I don't know what the poker PCBs came with, but if they don't include diodes, you would need those too. Also, probably LEDs
Ordered two of the Poker suit plates. Slowly accumulating the parts to build my first keyboard...
Is there a list somewhere detailing all the parts I should be looking out for? I figure I need the items below, am I missing some stuff?
1. PCB
2. Case
3. Backing plate
4. Key switches
5. Key caps :rolleyes:
6. USB cable (plus some way to connect to the board - USB connector for the case?)

Poker PCB has SMD diodes already installed. Unfortunately for you, now that the Poker DIY GB is over, and iMav sold all the leftover Poker PCBs, there is really no way to build a Poker from the ground up like that. You could either: 1. Buy a used Poker from someone and install your plate; or 2. Wait for the GH60 GB, and order the parts you need there.
also i am interested where i might find plate mounted switches as well. is this site's classifieds the best place to look? i am looking to build a 60% with greens.
Do you have plans to run any other plate designs? I am working on a custom design but even your single unit prices seem to be much better than any I'm seeing.
I am interested more in a larger layout similar to a tkl but with a numpad instead of arrows and scrolls keys. Possibly made of anodized aluminum.

Fair enough - any idea where I can get plate mounted cherry stabilisers from? Just as my Poker's current PCB mount ones are not so great - the spacebar ones come out every time I remove the spacebar for example...
Keep ordering ones with suits if you want them. I already sent in the order but I'm sure I can still add some. If you want to change your order, just resubmit the order and I will delete your first order completely

resubmitted the order for two reasons. I didn't notice the format in which you wanted the addresses and i changed my order from blank plates to suits.
thanks beast.
So... I can haz switch toolz?

I made what you're looking for already. Click on the Keyboard Prototyping link in my signature, and at the bottom of the 2nd post, there is an attachment called TK.dwg. That's what you want.
Well, The_Beast needs drawing files to send the laser cutter in order to have them made. But I'm sorry to intrude, if you already had a drawing. Good luck with your project! :)

I'm sorry I was under the impression that I was misunderstood, not that you were offering the files to beast. I didn't mean to be short, I am just at work. The origin of the files is not important to me. Apologies :)
Are you going to send out invoices?
in for 1 with suits.. Order submitted. Let me know if you didnt receive it. thank you!
Oooh exciting (well as exciting as the prospect of desoldering and resoldering 70 odd switches can be anyway...)
Thanks for this The_Beast! :D

Got it!
You can always check the status in post #2.
O_O I missed it...
O_O I missed it...
I ordered 2 extra blanks and 2 extra suits, send me a PM and I'll add you. But I will not be adding anymore to my order with the cutter, these 4 are the only ones available
Have you already sent out the invoices?
Nice and quick. (INB4TWSS) Nice GB Beast!
Nice and quick. (INB4TWSS) Nice GB Beast!
Not technically a GB since I'm buying up front. However, I can see myself doing these mini "group buys" more often. They're smaller (less shipping for me to deal with), faster (good for everyone), smoother running (not nearly as many PM's asking questions) and I make a bit of money (since this isn't a GB, I think that's fair especially when I'm fronting the money to order)
I think this is how the lube station and switch tool buy is going to go since it's sooooo much smoother and easier for me :D
BTW I still have one with suits and 2 blank plates. If anyone wants them, pm me :P

How is the lube station situation looking? I'm in desperate need of one :D
Too late. He's sending it to me along with my order. :P
If switch tools means what I think it does this is gonna be great.
No problem. People have been asking for plates and I need a bit of scratch for other projects so..... (next will be lube station and switch tools)
beast - do you know if this plate will work with the GH60? i'm assuming so?

Should. Not giving any promises tho
Also, someone dropped their order and have I have a single blank plate to buy

i would take it
Also paid!
@The_Beast: please ignore the PayPal shipping address, the one I gave in the order form is the right address. Thanks
Beast, i will be paying monday at midnight when my bills get processed, Thanks
Thank you for the update. My condolences to the family.

It was his wife's grandfather, not super close family but he still needed to be out of the office. BTW I don't know if he'll bend those plates. I have a metals professor who will let me use a box and pan break so it I should still be able to bend those things :P
What is this bent talk going on about!?

some custom plates and a lube station
exciting stuff. no rush on my order beast. if others want their faster let 'em. i got this for the GH60 so... yea. super stoked about the plates and compatibility with Cherry and costar stabs. genius.
next project perhaps could be iso style?

I'll be doing my own GH60 plates. I don't know what layouts I want tho...
It's a bit more since I'm doing small orders, but then I know they're right (WFD's last plates didn't turn out all that great)
Where did your images of the plates go Beast?? :(
got mine today. looks good. has a slight bend to it but i will straighten it out somehow when the time comes.
thank you. would buy again.
I received mine today....now I just need the pcb for one.

Same here. And the case. And the switches. And the keycaps (okay, I probably have those...).
Basically everything. This is the first Poker-related item I've owned.

I have some PCB mount MX Clears I am willing to trade for a PCB. [Now I cross my fingers]
