Hello I’m very excited to share a keyboard I’ve been
working on.
I’m a graphic designer/3D artist, and I’ve
been into keyboards for a few years now. I’ve been
experimenting my way with building a variety of
keyboards,
trying to find what I like best, like we all
do. I’ve been working with a friend of mine, w3bb0, who’s
doing the PCB design and together we wanted to make a
40% TKL Style keyboard.
However we decided to move over to a bit more
functional and accessible layout.
Prototype (v2) photos from the factory:
► Gasket mount ◄
►Seamless ◄
► Indicator
LEDs ◄
► Internal weight ◄
► Centered USB-port
◄
► 7 degree typing angle ◄
I’m focusing on
achieving beautiful aesthetics, a solid and compact sound
and a pleasant typing feel.
As for layout
compatibility, in the first run with prototypes we’re only
looking at standard ANSI and ISO layouts.
I really want
to try to cover the main alternative layouts, such as split
shift, split backspace and maybe even WKL, depending on
responses of the form.
Progress so far:
☑ Listen to feedback and finish the design
☑
Order first prototype of PCB
☑ Order prototypes of the
case in various colors
☑ Implement changes based on
how the prototype looks, feels and sounds
☑ Start GB
process
☐ Experience delays and setbacks but push on
UPDATE:
As I’ve stated in a few comments and post around, we
have been working on the GB details, and I am happy to
announce we have a date set!
Our very first group buy
raffle is set to take place on
05/29/2021 - Last Saturday of May
- We will raffle a limited amount of 150 units of Eclipse, worldwide - one vendor.
- You will get to choose from Dark Grey, Lilac, Green and E-White.
- Default plate material is Polycarbonate. Optional plate materials are POM for a softer typing feel, and brass, for a heavier and more solid typing feel.
- Solder PCB only, I’m afraid, due to MOQ limitations. I know I’ve promised hotswap, but we will try get that through for the next round, when we know more about the demand. So sorry if this disappoints you, but we prioritize getting a solid first round through.
- A secure raffle will take place through mykeyboard’s new website and raffle system. More details and info will come closer to the GB date.
There will most likely be more rounds, so don’t feel bad
if you don’t win the raffle!!
Thank you all for your patience!! I’m really
excited
I was a little late posting the GB thread, so it’s
yet to be approved by the mods. I’ll link to it from here so
we can continue the discussion and info over there, once
it’s up!
The raffle is LIVE!
The raffle has ended! Thank you all who
participated!!
Any questions, feel free to reach out to
