There was an option for no pcb though.

Oh true. he's ordering a few of each type from me, not sure his plan exactly

Any chance you can make the pcb work with holtites? I recently got my hands on one and was disappointed to discover that they are loose and don't work

Only 2 days left!

I'm considering making the alps PCB 1.2mm thick instead of 1.6mm.

The 1.6mm Alps is a fair bit stiffer (10-20% I figure) than a 1.6mm MX - mainly because of the holes for the MX switches.

any thoughts?

Is there any advantage to it being thinner?

But alps are already paired with fr4 plates for the most part, so I'm not sure if 1.2mm would be too much flex, considering the plate and everything. But I'd be okay with either.

I ordered a 1.2 MX pcb to pair with a polycarb plate. The amount of flex is insignificant, but there will be more flex with a thinner pcb and a less rigid plate.

There will be pads to solder an rgb led strip to and put in the plate of the Orion style indicators.

Your github link in the first post and the product page is a 404: https://github.com/hinnebusch/qmk_firmware/tree/master/keyboards/h87a

Is there more docs for this somewhere besides qmk? I'm sure it's posted somewhere, but how do I change rgb colors?

Update-

Still on track for mid-June delivery (to me at least). The blank PCBs are made, and assembly will start after the Chinese holiday. I have a vacation during the third week of June so if I get the PCBs in before then I obviously won't be able to ship many out. It may take a bit for fulfillment on these as there were a LOT of orders, but I can assure I'll get them out as quickly as I can.

Interesting - it should be working as intended if it's definitely the default keymap. If you continue to have issues shoot me a PM or email.

GB Round 2 update - DHL should be delivering the PCBs this week. I am out of town but will start sorting next week (June 9-14). The vendors/GB runners who ordered the PCBs from me for their respective buys will be first priority for me, as they will have a longer ship time. I will likely start actually shipping individual orders ~June 24 or 25 because I'll be out of town a few times again between then and now - I know I know, June's just busy for me. I'll get these out as quickly as I can obviously, with a goal of having extras available ~July 8

At minimum (assuming up to 2 PCBs per variant that have defects that I can't fix), I should have at LEAST: 20 normal, 40 thin, and 20 alps variants.

Got home tonight and unwrapped a pair of thinbois, all is good from what I tested and can see. The LEDs are not as bright as the older version (these use less current) but I don't think it'll affect anything too drastically.

Started packaging/shipping. Will drop off the first orders from my site later today or tomorrow.

I decided to explain my shipping process a bit since I'm sure I'll get the "where is my shipping if you're shipping them" questions:

Sort by "h87"/awaiting shipment/# of line items in ShipStation
Start packaging the higher # of line item orders first (more complex/etc)
As the # of line items decrease, the # of combinations increases. I then sort these out to like orders (example, if 3 orders have the same 4 items ordered)
Pick/pack/label these as I go
Drop off

This inevitably means I ship individual ones last, but those are the quickest and easiest to do since it's a matter of putting the single PCB in a box while packing. I can do a bunch at once this way to save time and effort.

Proxy/large order ones will go out later this week/early next, because I needed to order some larger boxes - I wasn't comfortable reusing the ones my fab shipped in bc 1. they're massive and 2. they're slightly beat up from the shipping
