Hi everyone, the Postage Board Mini group buy has launched
as of today.
All worldwide orders (except Europe) are
being taken on my new online store,
CuriousKeyboards.com
All EU orders are being taken on
Mechboards.co.uk
The previous round GB for the Postage Board was a
huge success, and I have decided to upgrade to having a real
online store to handle the orders. This should cut down on
delays and processing times by quite a lot.
If you’re
not sure what the Postage Board Mini is, it is a controller
board for Hand-wired keyboard builds, similar to the Teensy
or Pro Micro. The advantage to the Postage Board, is that it
mounts directly to a set of 3 switches on the top row of
your keyboard. This makes for a much easier build, and much
thinner too. Best of all, it provides a USB Type-C port,
which is mounted on the top.
-
25 IO pins available (4 of them pre-assigned as the top row, and 3 columns)
USB Type-C
Supports Type-C to Type-C cables
-
PCB will be matte black in colour, with silver contacts

The new Mini version improved upon several aspects of the previous model, based all on community feedback. -
Smaller vertically, so it no longer requires any switches to be rotated!
-
Pinouts are all arranged along the edges of the board, for easier routing access.
-
Better labeling of the IO pins, specifically the pre-assigned Columns and Row pins, to allow you to know which IO pin addresses they correspond with
-
The Group buy will run from July 3 until August 3. I anticipate being able to have all the orders shipped out 1 month after the close date of the group buy.
The boards are priced at $20 each. To help with shipping costs, I am offering Free Shipping for all orders of 5 units or more within Canada, US, and Europe. Please contact me with any questions about larger orders.
