[IC] 880 | Cone feet TKL

[masje]

A TKL with cone feet.

DISCORD IC FORM


I guess I got into the hobby too late to truly experience kustoms.
Therefore, I wanted to explore the world of kustoms through making them.
First, by achieving the aesthetic (specifically the 356L for this one), then tweaking the sound to make it what I enjoy.

This is as much an interest check as a journal of the development process of this keyboard.

Hopefully, I will be able to offer this keyboard down the line to people who enjoy the same aesthetic and typing experience.

Still very early, and under active development!

- Adjusted front height: 21mm (v1), 21.9mm (v2)

- Typing angle: 8 degrees (hence 8 80 - 8 deg, 80%. Thanks paul for the inspo)

- Weight: 1.2kg unbuilt

- Full aluminum construction, with optional brass weight. (testing out a v2 prototype with full aluminum!)

- CONE FEET (will probably offer cones and spacers, to customize typing angle)

- Compat with H87 PCBs (with on board type-c connector) eg Hiney h87c, galatea

- Explosion diagram

Aiming around 420USD (worst case scenario) without PCB, with hard case @ 5 MOQ

At 25 MOQ I can probably include the PCB at the same price

- Top mount with Jane-ish mount points. Plate will be changed to have more compat (6.25 bottom row, stepped caps, ISO etc)


- testing out hot-dog top mount (with orings in the wedges)

Would love to see WKL as an option or 6.25 option on the pcb possibly, but this looks really cool. Good luck!

Nice board! GL with the GB.  I had trouble getting enough orders to meet MOQ but this was years ago.

I know it's true to the 356L aesthetic, but I'd insta buy with a WKL top.
Maybe it can be 356CL DGE aesthetic instead

I've always had a weakness for this minimal is the style of design

What's old is new again, but MX Blacks will never die.

Very nice project, the more cone feet the better. GLWIC

[kbd0]

I like these big cone feet, does the keyboard have a difference in sound having them on vs off?

[spoonr00t]
