75% mini mx style with ISO layout
Gateron blues with 45g korean springs, jailhouse mod, but the version of the mod that leaves like 0.01mm left at the bottom to still have the click, but dramatically reduced actuation distance.
How could I get this?
all the group buys I've seen for 75% are either non iso compatible, or closed.
Finally, if I ordered all the parts, I'd need a competent person to assemble them for me.
I'd be extremely grateful if people could give me some good suggestions on how to solve this riddle.
I see that GON keyboards sell 75% compatible PCB's but I hear his custom work delivery time is awful. Maybe buying one of these? but i'd really like a cool case, like the octagon case. I prefer non acryllic if possible. I didn't like the GON case very much either.

It's pretty hard to get a 75% ready made in the market unless you go to GON or http://22kbd.com/ and http://winkeyless.kr/
but again they're all acryllic base case, you have to wait of a GB if you want full aluminium enclosure from someone luke Duck or LZ
as far as I know this GB is still running https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=78549.0 (octagon v2) , give it a try

You can request full alu or even steel from Kaliet at 22kbd. I'm not sure what prices are like now, though.

Only the first 60 made this GB unfortunately... I'm looking for a custom 75% as well :)

Thanks for the tips, I'll check out 22kbt. I was already somewhat familiar with winkeyless, though, as you say, they also are acryllic.
On top of the acryllic problem, I've heard some negative comments on GON's delivery and response times. I sent them a message though their online message thing
As w00zie mentioned, the GB is closed. It wasn't clear whether or not there was ISO support either, IIRC. If there was ISO support, I'd be all over a spot in that GB,or sure. You can request full alu or even steel from Kaliet at 22kbd. I'm not sure what prices are like now, though.
Thank you, I'm going to send him an email and see what he can do for me.

I got a reply from GON pretty quickly, less than 24 hrs after sending the initial message. I asked him if he could do the jailhouse blue mod too, and he said he needed pictures to see if he could. - But he only has cherry blues, I think, not gateron blues.
I'd have to coordinate him getting the other switches some how, which could be a huge headache, if even something he'd be into. Furthermore, the case disappointment is a big factor. And it's not like I could easily replace the case at any time either, since the plate that everything is soldered through is for that acryllic case specifically, right?
