It's been a while since an actual update.
I'm pleased to announce that CannonKeys will be the vendor for this group buy. They have been incredibly supportive and have been super helpful in making sure we can keep the machining costs as low as possible.
Earlier today, they received prototypes for the GB unit in both Aluminum and Polycarbonate.
- GB Unit Prototypes
- O-Ring mount post now use Unikorn positions. This is to make sure CannonKeys Bakeneko60 pcb will work in this case for MX switches. Custom AEK ALPS pcb will be offered of course by default.
- GB will offer a single color for anodized aluminum case, most likely space grey. This is to keep the option count (and price) in control.
- GB will also offer a polycarbonate case with heat set inserts.
- Internal weight only
IC form is still open for those that want to give additional feedback. There was an issue with my discord and I had to nuke it, I'll create a new one and post the link here by the end of this week.
Next up is sending prototype units to streamers to build and review. Also finalizing GB dates, options, prices etc. Will keep the thread posted on when that happens.
