UPDATE 9/8/2021 After one factory
botching of the PCB prototype, we switched factories,
finally got all the pieces together and built the prototype.
The price is now an even $210 to account for the new, more
expensive (but more reliable) PCB factory as well as other
accessory costs such as o-rings and standoffs. We still
think this is a great price and hope you will too.
I
have taken some prototype pictures so you guys can see what
it looks like IRL and we are sending it to Andy V Nguyen
soon for a build stream and video.
Lastly, we are
anticipating a groupbuy start on October 3rd. Stay tuned for
a groupbuy post with more information.

Update 4/26 Due to popular opinion, e-white
has been added to the color selection. Available colors are
now black, navy, and e-white. Also, the streamlined version
has been chosen.
Update 4/13
Streamlined version has won with a large majority. We have
ordered a prototype for it.

FAQ
So all positions mentioned in the specifications are
supported with hotswap?
Yes, thanks to creative hotswap socket positioning by
our PCB guy taylor.
Iso Support?
No, by
nature of alice layout.
Won’t the sound be hollow?
After experience with the prototype, the board will
not sound hollow when using the o-rings and acrylic bottom
at normal typing distance. Using the POM plate will further
mitigate this issue.
Can you further explain the mounting?
Of course - If you look at the photo of the plate,
there are four holes, one in each corner. Those will be used
to screw the plate into the case, and will be the
only points of pressure on the plate. The
plate will flex when the strips of metal connecting the hole
to the main plate bend.
Closing Remarks
I have been working very hard on this keyboard and
