Yes, very nice. I think I might just have to migrate my vote for your 60% over to this board.

What's the keycount for your two boards you're doing IC's for? Assuming ANSI for both, 66 vs 80  or so?

[sprit]

Yes, We do Mr. !

Same here, I suppose asking for also a case (plastic or aluminum) would be pointless....right?

Brilliant MOZ, thanks for that  .  Very rare for any 75% case to be made here at Geekhack, much like getting an 1800 made (which was done by REDLINE finally).

This is not a vote.  Just a Quck IC.

You'd be happy to know, I have an acrylic case for that already ready.

Hope You might find a way to fulfill your mission for MX-mini.

If this is compatible with LZ MX aluminium cases and supports ALPS switches then I might as well have the people in my thread join here and close my IC in my signature.
I'm super busy until end of the year so don't have time to finish my project. It's currently in plate design stage for alps switches.

The ALPS keycap group buy in my sig should also be of interest for those who want ALPS in the MX-mini layout.

Also for people that want an alu case to go with it, I had a deal with GON to make them. If OP(sprit) wants to collab or take over shoot me a PM (I speak Korean.)

[phetto]

Yes please ISO MX mini!

[Elrick]

Also for people that want an alu case to go with it, I had a deal with GON to make them. If OP(sprit) wants to collab or take over shoot me a PM (I speak Korean.)

Damn an aluminum case for it.  Definitely interested, and also getting GON involved here as well.  Looking good thus far, if we get a collaboration with everyone here then this Group Buy would be the most interesting to develop.

Nice to see GON getting on board  .

Hello, Mr. Calavera!  You know the BeastMask from Korea?     The Creater of the Original A.87 and MX-mini Layouts.   
He's  Super Quick Response as usual, even quicker! He 's willing to support EU, ISO, especialy for GH members worldwide.
Delightefuly energetic, beaming laser from his super-towered eyes the day before.

Thanks for collaboration on ALPS,  I speak some English, Malaysian, German, Russian, but all very poor.

is there anywhere to get mx-mini plates? will we need another GB for those?

As you know, Mr. BeastMask's  MX-mini has been a long-time-popular, and All PCBs and Cases are basically interoperative, compatible except very few, if there is, cases.  He updates, maintains, shares his design all the time.

[sprit]

Yes please ISO MX mini!

   We are working on ANSI+ISO, and now finalizing the Release Candidate..
Basically 1.25x shift and ISO enter supported in the PCB is required.     And the firmware.

I do love ISO for myself, I have learned some of your languages, fellow European guys.
Do You need some more key layouts to add on this PCB ?? to talk fluently to Your Girl?  My phetto !! 

[MOZ]

Sprit, sent you a PM, please have a look.

Sprit, sent you a PM, please have a look.

MX-mini has been always maintained it's form factors and the basic format, since it's first appearance 4 years ago.
So you can use the exactly same sheet for this newest PCB.

MX-mini U  has PS2- USB auto-detect, plate-free PCB mount for switches, super-easy firm-up, reliable LED features,  developed, and waited by keyboard Enthusiasts groups.

seems like winkeyless isn't supported, so no more interest

The designer Mr. BeastMask  himself  loves WKL.  He always put WKL on his designs 

-  supports FN key almost at any position You like.
-  supports 1.25x 1x 1.25x 6.25x 1.25x1x1x1  for Winkey ,     1.5x1.5x 7x 1.5x1.5x 1x1x1  Winkeyless (WKL)

why didn't you just say this when I asked you via pm? This wouldn't have confused me as your original pm reply did.
