LK-1800fe Upgrade model for GB...Give your opinion!
« on: Tue, 03 March 2015, 02:29:28 »
* My GB plan will start soon, but It need a little bit time. Now I'm preparing support site. This site can offer billing service; Paypal, AliPay and other escrow based payment system. And more detail imformation will come here with support site. :)


Hello everyone!

Here comes new upgraded model of LK-1800fe (Leeku's MX1800 Custom final edition).

This is not TX1800. DO NOT MISTAKE!!!

This version's specification points and features are:

1. Top & Bottom design changed: hair-line surfaced, engraved typo-graph logo
2. Bumpon: Bumpon bar, Chrome bumpon set
3. And little bit changed


I hope to get your opinions for this hand-made custom keyboard.

Please give your opinions to me for improving quality.

And hope so any opinions, too.

Let's make good GB together!   :D

Sorry, is this Cherry MX only? Or can it use Alps switch as well?
It looks marvellous, especially the silver case.

This LK-1800fe can support Alps and cherry.
If you want it, you have to choice extra option for Apls.
In this case, all set is the same without gusset.
Thanks for your interesting. :)

Thanks.

Only for cherry, not for alps. But LinX3 can support both of all; Blank PBT and DyeSub PBT.

Yes, sure. This dyesub research and works are finished. Only left for GB.

Is that a polycarbonate case in between?
I like the look of this board. Though I would suggest giving it some time to enable people's wallet to recover.

I assume you mean BoW. Because WoB is pretty much impossible for dye sub. ;)

WoB can't be dyesubbed can it (lighter legends can't be dyesubbed onto darker caps)? Unless you meant BoW?

But LynX3 prepare for GB, soon or later.

Good enough. ;)

Can you give us some more details such as LED support, side leds, switch top removal compatible plate, which type of stabilizers, can the feet be removed so the case can be put at a 0� angle and of course the available colours for anodizing?

EDIT:
NVM, I should have read your other topic XP

- switch top removal = No
- Stabilizers = PCB-mount
- Feet removable for 0� incline = Seems like yes
- Anodization = Light silver, Metal Grey & Black

Can we get stickers for the GB?

EDIT2:

Alright, let's see here are some of my thoughts:
- Stainless steel plate = :thumb:
- Support for both winkey and winkeyless = :thumb:
- Thick-ass case = :thumb:
- SMD LED support = it works. Would be great if we could get a more even flow all around. How many can it drive?
- Stickers = Looks awesome :thumb: Seriously want those for the GB
- Feet =  :-\ They look great but I would prefer the option to put other ones on for different angles
- Edge = :D The engraved edge of the prototype can look great with certain options. I understand this might not be feasible for the final product.
- Removable switch tops = :-\ Undecided. Many people will prefer it but I understand from some builders that they make assembly a ***** and the plates more expensive.
- Finish = :thumb: I like a clean anodization, however I love a more brushed look such as this or even this.

Tyssenkrupp 6061 Aluminium wirh anodizing.
Hair-line surfaced.
And anodizing is not option.
It just full support to everyone.

Ahh too bad ... so the Alps fully built option won't have keycaps? :-\

Wow, this is the best looking one I have seen so far, really makes me want to get an 1800 layout. Depending on when this runs I might get it.
