Oxalis60 Update : Made
changes to the design of the case, made sure it could be
built with the added flex cuts. Made some new renders. I
have also used the colors from GMK Olivia for the keycaps.
If Olivia asks, I will remove them.
Update 2 :
Received word from manufacturer. I can have any pantone
colors with no added cost. Also I have updated the price of
the board for the GB.
Update 3 : Have
made renders of the most popular colors based on IC. Hope
you like them!
Introduction
Hello! Update about my
last post. I have made some changes to the design, more
noticeably some flex cuts for the integrated plate and a
logo on the weight. There are also a few minor changes
related to some dimensions but they are not noticeable.
I
am doing a 60% because I think its a simple design with a
nice layouts. Yes there are a lot of these already but I
felt like doing something that could stay a bit more
affordable in the quality range. I went with a sharper
design as I quite like the simple aesthetic.
The name
comes from a plant more commonly known as Mountain
woodsorrel. I like the flower quite a bit, so I named the
keyboard after the flowers genus. 60 comes from the fact
that this is a 60% layout: How original of me.

What has been
done:
Plate and Weight design done, waiting on your
feedback
3D printed a prototype to make sure
everything aligns nicely. It does!
PCB went through a
production review. It is now finished and needs to be sent
for QC check from manufacturer.
Sent quotes to many
manufacturers to see pricing.
Whats next? Get an
aluminum prototype made and order another PCB sample. Also
waiting on more color options from feedback
What am I
doing now? Looking at packaging options and some materials
to be bought.

Sound Test of 3D printed Prototype (on reddit)
https://v.redd.it/kdqls79nxrs61/
I lost the video on my PC which is why I’m posting
this link. Sorry.
Obviously the sound will be different
for the aluminum prototype, but am hopeful it will sound
nice thanks to the flex cuts and dampening foam.

FAQ
More
Why should I trust you? I love the custom
keyboard community and am dedicating a lot of time to make
this work. I have not been a very vocal user but have been
part of the community since at least 2015. Got my first mech
(Anne Pro 2) in 2019 after reading all I could about cheap
kinda good keyboards. During quarantine I was bored and
looking at some more custom scene keyboards and my jaw
dropped when I saw the prices where I live (Canada) for some
entry-level keyboards. So I decided to create a PCB and 3D
print a case (Im using the board now!) and Im pretty happy,
but I want to bring this board to the entire community.
QMK and VIA?
Yes! I have tested my prototype PCBs and they work with VIA
and QMK.
Will this have RGB?
No
Hotswap? No, because there are
different layouts
ISO?
Yes!
DISCLAIMER
Keep in mind this is an interest
check. Nothing, including options, pricing, etc., is final
until the GB starts.
