May I know what's the advantage of having an EU proxy vs. shipping directly from me to EU joiners?

From EU buyers standpoint it’s much easier to get EU proxy to handle importing all units (incl. declaring them and paying import taxes). Then all EU buyers can receive their units without any extra hustle because shipping would be inside of EU.

All in all it just offloads all import bureaucracy to the proxy, which saves tons of time to all EU buyers.

Sorry for the crap quality. I just shot them using my phone. I will post nicer pictures.

Looks great. Could there be an option for a 2U backspace plate? I like HHKB but could never adapt to the placement of backspace.

Looks beautiful with lights! What PCB are you using in the prototype?

Looking good. Wouldn’t mind being my first 60. Can’t wait for some engraving designs and/or brand badge improvement. Have you tried shifting the back mark to the left to balance the USB port? Possibly scaling it down too for more framing effect near the top and bottom of the case(?)

+1 can always use Fn to get tilde/back tick eh

It looks pretty in the renders but from the prototype photos I think the front and side bezels are too large for my design tastes

GB plate will have full backspace and right shift support

Looking for that IC

PhantomLeadr · « **Reply #61 on:** Sun, 05 July 2020, 08:24:06 »

Im so hyped for this. Def Interedted for this. I assume the HTE PCB from 1Up would also work with this?

Here are some typing tests.

Typing Test with Gateron Milky Blacks:

Typing Test with T1 Switches:

GB will launch soon! Updates are posted on the start of the thread,

What to expect from the GB:
- Target Date: End of July or August
- Pricing: Target is 250$ for case, weight, and plate (I still need to get updated quotes due to the changes)
- Brass and PC plate as add-on (Tentative)
- 20-25 slots raffle style (Tentative)

Not a huge fan of the new weight design, but :shrug:

Also, 20-25 slots are going to go REALLY quick :grimacing:

DJSwayde · « **Reply #64 on:** Tue, 07 July 2020, 14:43:51 »

Would you provide plate files if we go in on the GB?

Rev 2 renders look perfect man, I am all over this. Been on the lookout for a PC board for a while.

Like some other posters have mentioned, 20-25 spaces is really tight. Please consider upping the amount of units, especially if your target price point is met I think this will be a very popular product and a lot of people could end up missing out and being disappointed.

R1 finished a couple months ago. He upped the amount to 40 units.
