finished, not do finish treatment yet.
so far, the
structure has no problem. Next for finish treatment(e-white
and e-black), the final prototype will be done around 7

[IC] Go-Ace68, redesign a 68-key gasket mount
keyboard
Background
Being regarded as a
significant contribution to the mechanical keyboard
community, 65% layout is a trendy layout in recent years
among various mechanical keyboard enthusiasts because of its
high compatibility with most of the necessary keys.
That’s
the main reason why HelloWorld uses the 65% layout. Although
some excellent keyboards were already produced in this
layout and had performed well, we still want to make some
new attempts, seeing if we can make something new.
One
of the attempts is the double-layer top case design, making
the keyboard has more color matching. Different colors can
be selected for the upper and lower layers of the top case
so that the appearance presents more possibilities.
The
idea of the badge on the back “HelloWorld came from one of
our friends. When recalling some excitement about his study
and work with a mechanical keyboard, he inadvertently
mentioned it. We thought it’s a cool idea, and that’s the
point where we made the decision shortly.
Notes: switches and keycaps are only for render
use;
