We want to know if the brass ver. Chiwi60 is possible to be made.
So we start a new check for Black PVD.
Please make sure you really want it before chose "yes".
We're asking quotation based on interesting check result.
If final quantity is far away from the quantity we are planing to order, will only make the project fail :(

We will offer only type C port cutout this time.

FAQs:
Other color?
No, quantity can not even close to MoQ for single color, not possible to offer more colors.

Full brass?
No, reason why is the same as first question.

Weight?
around 1.5~1.7 for full keyboard build.

Estimate price?
Higher than $250 for sure, if quantity is enough, we hope under $300.

YES YES YES YES YES! (Or dark purple)
My vote is for black.
As we saw before, it's quite hard to reach MOQ so we need to keep it simple.

Also, I think a larger cutout would be better to increase compatibility with other PCBs, especially since it will be difficult to reach MOQ and people don't want to be stuck with the DO60 for better or for worse.
