Update from the designer: the ACE-XT40 will be compatible with plank PCB
The price for the 1 case, 1plate, fixing bolts and rubber pads is $135. The pcb are not sold individually.

Hey guys

A 40% layout keyboard. Are you interested?
As the layout is similar with Planck. Previously I have PM the OLKB and receive affirmation and praise from him.
The keyboard is design by the member of wolf team.

Yes same here. If you do a 60%/TKL case design though, I'm down for that!  :thumb:

I'd probably be down for one. I love the hi pro case.

$150 for what? Case, plate, pcb, ...?
