Hi friends, welcome to the Interest Check for the next
keyboard in the HEX series, the HEX.6C.
The 6C is our
attempt at filling a very distinct void in the custom
community, the full-size layout.
Prototype Images
When we were conceptualizing our next product after
we ran 3C, we decided to provide the community with
something that had been missing for quite a while, A Custom
full-size Keyboard.
As you can see, the renders are of
a southpaw full-size, as I personally feel that it is the
most convenient full-size should the user put in the effort
to get used to the left handed numpad,
but we’re also
thinking of just doing the traditional full-size layout. Do
help us solve this dilemma by filling in the IC form
There had been some custom full-sizes in the past.
However, the prices and the limited quantities available
meant that there wasn’t really a widely available
custom
full-size solution in the market. This is the reason we
decided to bring this layout and design to the IC stage
instead of more popular(as of recent times) 65% or TKL
layouts.
However we’re still evaluating interest in
this board and we might end up bringing something else into
IC if this doesn’t do as well as we want it to.
Our plate mounting this time is a little different
compared to the one we had in the
3C, where we just isolated each mounting point. Since we’re
going with a more “traditional” gasket-type mount, we opted
to fully gasket mount our plate with a giant rubber band
completely wrapping the plate. Ensuring that the plate will
be COMPLETELY isolated from the top and
bottom case, making zero contact with metal during usage.
As
for the material for the gasket, we’re thinking either
silicone or poron as of now.
UPDATE: We’ve finalized
our gasket implementation. Here is the new exploded view of
how it would look like
We’re thinking of offering Brass Knobs as
The
default aluminum knob will be anodized to match your case
colour. of choice.
