Follow up IC:
Hello fellow mechanical keyboard
enthusiasts,
This is a follow up to the original IC for
cypher with a few more refined details as well as another
form to help us gauge a few things (like colours and plate
materials). This time I am also collecting emails to send a
notification for the start of the group buy.
The price
will be $335(295) ex vat + shipping (VAT charged by default
for EU buyers, ROW will be your local taxes) (shipping
inside Europe should be 10-20 and worldwide will be
30-50)
Key Specifications:
-
Sub 17mm height without bumpons (16.25mm). Bumpons add 1.3mm height still keeping the whole board under 18mm :-)
-
Top Mount (a few balanced points to create a nice even typing feel)6° typing angle
-
Supports ANSI/ISO, a few bottom rows for keycap compatibility and split or 2u backspace KLE of layouts
-
Poly-carbonate or aluminium plate (potential to change based on poll)
-
3 Colours: to be chosen from a poll in the IC form
-
Type C
Something requested a lot in the first IC was split space support and there will be a separate plate option to support this available.
Plates will also be available for ANSI/ISO layouts that support all bottom rows and stepped/unstepped caps. It will also support all 1u numpad or 2u plus and enter. The ANSI plate will also support split backspace.
The other changes requested included re-adding the logo from the original run to the base so this has returned.
Group buy is planned to launch on Monday 8th July and will run for 4 weeks or until we hit the upper limit of 100 boards.

First IC:
Hello fellow mechanical keyboard enthusiasts,

First off welcome to the first official IC for the cypher, an F-row less compact 1800 like layout custom keyboard kit.
After an overwhelmingly positive response when the pictures of the first round started coming out I decided to start looking into running a larger, full scale GB. This time Id like to avoid many of the pitfalls and issues with the first revision. To that end I have teamed up with the fine folks of mykeyboard.eu who will be hosting this group buy for me, handling all the shipping and transaction side of it.

Depending on the reaction to this IC and assume no major changes need to happen to the designs and re-prototype we expect to run this later in the summer (July-August)
Thank you
