Quote Alright, here’s my take on it.
There’s a strong distaste for PheonixStarr’s work, whatever quality it might be. I commissioned her services some time before her Keylace fiasco, but it seems even then, none of you like the idea that she’s worked on it. Pushing onwards, I felt that it would have been deceptive if I didn’t explicitly mention her involvement. Nevertheless, I’m very sorry for getting this IC off on a bad, bad note. Moving forward, I’ve decided to scrap what work we’ve started together and hunt for a new PCB designer. I want to get this keyboard GB off the ground, and if this is what I have to do, it’ll be done.
As for the renders, they’ll be shortly replaced by prototype photos (whenever it is they arrive).
Hi. I’ve been lurking this community for a while. After a lot of practice and study, I’m happy to present my first keyboard design :)
I understand that, as a new runner, I’m still unproven. Nevertheless, I’d like to make an attempt at a small groupbuy of no more than a dozen units. I hope my nascence won’t prove an issue to anyone.


Inspired by the refined touches of forged composite carbon fiber on Lamborghini vehicles like the Sesto Elemento, Veneno, and the Huracan, the Karbon/65 brings an equally exotic-yet-subdued atmosphere to your desktop.


The forged carbon fiber composite plate is supported by a custom-cut full isolation mount.

A small sandblasted brass weight keeps everything anchored to your desk—and, of course, contributes to its unique sound signature.
Specifications
- Layout: 65% symmetrical
- Case: Aluminum housing, sandblasted brass weight
- Plate: Forged Composite (Matte finish); Aluminum available
- Mount: Isolation mount; custom-cut gaskets.
- Colors: Black & Grey
- Angle: 7.0 deg.
- PCB: TBA
Details
Price - expected to be around $475 due to low quantity, but I will do my best to reduce this figure. There’s a good chance I might be able to sell it for $450 or less.
Groupbuy will consist of twelve units serialized (design in the works). Most likely, it will be laser-engraved into the brass weight, probably on the internal side.
Additional FC/alu plates will be available (anodized either black or grey, your choice), as well as PCB+daughterboard combos.
Dates TBD. Prototypes expected within 3 weeks.
