Flint 65 
Hello! I’m excited to share some of the work I’ve been doing on a keyboard I’m designing. This is my first attempt at anything keyboard-related, and I may have chosen a challenging path without realizing it!
Let’s get started, shall we? Here’s some information about the board:
Specifications
Layout: 65%
Typing Angle: 6.5 Degree
Front Height: 23.9mm (Without Feet)
Mounting Style: Poron Gasket (Top 4/Bottom 2/No Spacebar Mounting points)
DesignSo, what does it look like? In its current rendering model state, it looks a little like this:
The front of the keyboard there an added edge on top of it from the middle weight.
The keyboard's unique charm shines through its side profile, where a subtle rounding curve creates an inviting and distinctive look. It's this elegant design feature that sets it apart from the rest!
On the back, it's a simple design with silicone feet on it.
Layout(The layout is supposed to resemble something like this:)
Hotswab layout Solder layout
Kit Option
Top Case: Alu/PC(Maybe)
Bottom Case: Alu/PC(Maybe)
Middleweight: Brass/Copper/SS PVD/Alu PVD
PCB: 1.6mm Hotswap/Solder
Plate: Alu/CF/PP/Brass
COLORS: TBD, please fill out the IC form for your favorite color combo.
Overall, the design is simple and minimalistic, which I appreciate. There isn't too much going on here.
