To-Do List:
- Order case prototype.
- Order PCB prototype.
- Test fully built prototype.
- Proceed to group buy.
- Latest Update:*
- [09/10/2020]* Ordered Prototype a couple weeks ago. Estimated to arrive mid October so hopefully i’ll be able to make an assembly video and sound test soon.
-
[12/10/2020]* After receiving some feedback, I
decided to remove the red colour option and add a colour
called “Maroon Wine”.
-
[20/11/2020]* Received my first prototype and
made some minor changes to the keyboard design. I made the
weight design slightly sharper and replaced the kck logo
with “ESNTL”. Will let you guys know when I have another
design update. 2nd Prototype will be ordered very soon.
- [24/11/2020]* Ordered a 2nd prototype today. Made some small changes to the case design to make it easier to assemble.
-
[24/02/2021]* Took a break from this project as I
needed more time to focus on my other GB & house
construction work. But I’m back now and i’m ready to move
onto the groupbuy stage. Anyway here are some pictures of
the 2nd prototype. I made very minor design changes to the
keyboard but I think it refined the overall look.
- [26/02/2021]* The vendor i’ll be working with will be Mechboards UK (Mechboards.co.uk). They handled the payment side of things for my previous groupbuy and they will be doing the same for this groupbuy. Unfortunately I will not be working with international vendors for this groupbuy. GB date hasn’t been set yet but i’ll keep you guys updated here on this thread whenever I can.
