[GB][FINISHED] Mekanisk Group Buy / LeandreN round 5

[duynguyenle]

Hi Leandre, at this point in the game is it still possible to add PCBs and/or plates to my order? Or are we strictly waiting till they are available on your shop and make a separate order?

[LeandreN]

Question: There are some steel plates on Mekanisk.co and, by the look of the picture, they are universal. Is there any HHKB or Winkeyless variant available?

Yes! Sorry for the unclear description there. These are universal. You have first priority for the left overs from the group buy, but I can't sell before I am sure I have enough for every group buy order.

Yeah, I will get some better pictures when I have them here.

You are the person setting the "green-standard" Sifo

Are there more green aluminum cases incoming? Unfortunately, I did not get a chance to snag one when they were in the store.

Yes, put not this batch because I have a custom colours.

Hello people!


Small update
GONkeyboardworks is manually checking each and one of the PCBs.

Aluminium plates are very close too...

Sweet  Any possibility that these will arrive before Christmas? Asking because I won't be home to receive it and Canada Post only holds things for 10 days before its sent back to the shipper. Sorry, you probably are getting asked that a lot.

As well, is it possible to add an orange universal plate to my order if there's some extra? I checked your website and there's none left.

They are probably not going to reach you before christmas. Extras will be available on mekanisk.co once I have started shipping the main GB orders.

Do we groupbuyers have any priority on ordering extras?

I will always post the links here first. I do sell the items at a markup though, I will have to figure something out there. Thanks for the feedback.

Thanks for your info. I'm still interested in HHKB or winkeyless steel plates, if any.

[LeandreN]

 Okay, I'll set up an form for GB buyers to buy a few extras for a lower price than the finished markup price. This gives me the advantage of sending it with your order.

PCBs will be 65$ compared to 75$

Plates will increase by 5$.

Stabilisers will be 12$ like in the store.

I can only accept a few additions, due to the economy and availability. Do you think this is a good solution?

I'd love to add one extra Green PCB and some stabilisers!

[TalkingTree]

Given that it comes from your generosity, as we had plenty of time to order and think over it, it's indeed a very good solution.
Thanks.

[LeandreN]

Not posted anywhere else, this is to the main enthusiasts.

Thanks for your support, I will be in contact if I can add the item to your order. There will be limitations, so don't expect to get everything you want.

[Brammm87]

Super awesome that you're doing this Leandren.

Happy that I ordered some extra for myself

Cool, no need to add an alternate shipping address then. And thanks for adding the extras order form. Aprreciated! 

[LeandreN]

Some packages went out today, since the aluminium plates have arrived.

I initially didn't plan to send anything out before I got the GON PCBs in, but I had some time yesterday to pack up some orders.

Please check the order status sheet.

Hello, while we wait for the parts, I need your input on something.

What do you want to see in a 60% case?

[dorf]

Hello, while we wait for the parts, I need your input on something.

What do you want to see in a 60% case?

The tight cases that tex produces are amazing. If you can offer anything similar with high edges it would be awesome.

Hello, while we wait for the parts, I need your input on something.

What do you want to see in a 60% case?

I have always wanted an exact aluminium replica of a poker two case.

[duynguyenle]

Hello, while we wait for the parts, I need your input on something.

What do you want to see in a 60% case?

I would really like to see a high profile 60% case that has the plate mounted to the upper case rather than the standard tray-mounted design where the PCB is screwed down to the case (like those fancy Kustoms). Not sure if there's enough demand for this type of case to get the price down to reasonable levels though  )

Yea the gap is what is keeping me from buying one of those low-profile aluminum cases from taobao/aliexpress personally.

I didn't manage to jump on this group buy (my main board is round 4 though), and I agree, if there is some way to have a case that's somewhere between the 'kustoms' and a basic tray style that would be great. Not sure how it would work without having a custom plate that goes with it though.

[CommonCurt]

Hello, while we wait for the parts, I need your input on something.

What do you want t6o see in a 60% case?

A NON-Low-Profile case.

Preferably two pieces,  but a simple tray style would be okay to.

[eksuen]

Hello, while we wait for the parts, I need your input on something.

What do you want to see in a 60% case?

A high profile GREEN alu case. 

[TalkingTree]

What do you want to see in a 60% case?

Replicas of Cherry G80 and IBM Model F cases, even in plastic.

[LeandreN]

Thanks for all the feedback.
I am working on a 60% case design that will hopefully be a bit nicer than the normal aliexpress cases.

High profile, weight is some of the features I want to implement.

[wholypantalones]

There needs to be more high profile cases out there, can't wait to see what you come up with.

[duynguyenle]

Would be great if you can get the case walls closer to the plate instead of the huge chasm that you get from the Aliexpress cases

Wow, they look great!
