At the bottom of the page, you'll see page numbers.
They're currently on page one.

Oh okay, I see them now.  66 pages.  Is it one guy that designs all the Duck boards?

First post says "Each set will be $220". A good price if you ask me.

PCB is already produced?  Will this be a traditional GB or just a sale?  Wondering how quick I'll need to be once it goes live.   ;)

Oh, and yay!  Looking good.  :)

It'll be a traditional GB.  There is no limit on these, so no need to rush :)

Oh and here are the 3 main colours.



These are for their local group buy in SK sadly.  Koreans always comes first for them  :blank:

I think the last light savers should ship sometime this week. So I would guess in around 2 - 3 weeks this GB will start. But I don't know how fast the GBs here go so I can just guess.

Is it just me, or do the mounting posts in the case look like they're not compatible with any other pcb/plate like GH60, FaceW, FaceU, etc?

I was actually thinking of sawing off the corners of a cheap FaceU and fix the matrix with a few wires to get an ISO Viper, but it looks like that won't be possible, unless I drill holes for mounting too. :S

I could get a black Eagle to create this look which I really like.




But the silver Viper also looks really nice. Have to think of a layout though since I would be missing Ctrl. Not a problem at all though. I would almost say it looks a bit nicer than the Eagle, but I would have to look for a nice LED scheme.




I don't even know what switches to use yet. I ordered some 60g, 65g and 68g gold springs and I have 62g here currently. I have everything for ergo-clears, but I really enjoy linear switches. I might give 68g blacks a go.

I should really stop complaining about all the choices. I should be happy that I have all the stuff to choose from  :thumb:

Don't believe so.  Assuming that is the lightsaver pcb on the last page, and the viper is the mid pcb.  You can see the viper has pin locations for alps (the non staggered) but the lightsaver does not.  Though I could be wrong.  I've never seen or used an alps switch.

This is an interest check.  This group buy wont start until after the lightsaver v2 groupbuy ends.  Then you will be able to order it.  But don't expect to have anything in your hands for many months to come.

So I found a local shop that might make me some acrylic inserts for both the Light Pad and the Viper, but what do I need to give them, just the .dxf flle Duck posted on his site?
Will they know what to do with that, because I sure as hell don't...

I don't know if we know the thickness of them.  But the files show the profile of them so if we knew the thickness it shouldnt be hard.  You would just tell him which ones you wanted (theres 4 on the file) and how many probably.

The thickness may be what 10T and 12T are but thats just a guess.
