Updates
July 8, 2020
Some people were mentioning Keycult similarities and
wanting some measure of closure on the matter, so I reached
out to them. They are the nicest and most mature people I
think I’ve had the pleasure of talking with. Keycult
understood the similarities, inspirations and goal of the
board and gave me an “OK” to continue on with the
project.

GB
has started.
Content
Welcome
Hello! My name is Koobaczech and I love designing
cool, fun and unique bespoke boards! Some of you may know me
from Pearl 40%, but I’ve made other boards as well such as
Espectro, Atlas65, ZeusTKL, ZeusPad, Percival. You can find
most of my projects on my IG or in my Discord.
Introducing Pandora 60% - For the 1%
Pandora is a super premium 60% that is packed with
all the Koob tech you would expect. I worked very hard on
this project some years ago, but never ran it. I have
resurrected and refined it for todays market with the best
features I could add. Everything was designed in house and
with patience and love. Before going further, I want to
extend a kind note to any newcomers that this is not a
beginner friendly board. It requires patience, knowledge,
and proper handling to ensure its proper function. I say
this in regard to things such as aligning plates with gasket
systems, not over-tightening polycarbonate parts,
understanding which plates are best for you, and properly
using a hotswap PCB. With that being said, lets start
listing some things that I put into these bad boys. One last
note, what’s listed here is currently being exercised in my
two Prototypes!

to extend a kind note to any newcomers that this is not a
beginner friendly board. It requires patience, knowledge,
and proper handling to ensure its proper function. I say
this in regard to things such as but not limited to,
aligning plates with gasket systems, not over-tightening
polycarbonate parts, understanding which plates are best for
you, properly using a hotswap pcb with the right switches,
picking the right materials and combinations, and
understanding how to build/program a custom board.
Collaborations
I reached out to my favorite makers out there, and am
proud to announce the main collaboration in this project
will be with premium cable maker Bear Cable Co. They make
high quality coiled, sleeved, protected cables that you
would expect, but add the extra details that matter. When
you receive your custom cable with gold plated ends, painted
connectors and that sweet coil, your keyboard setup is
complete. Hit him up now until the GB ends for any special
fulfillment requests. Next collab I am trying to provide
will be with premium artisan maker Latrialum to make limited
badges! More info to come!
