BBA-60
Stacked accrylic and
brass | Tray-mount 60% | WK - WKL - HHKB
What is this ?
Its a tray mount
60% keyboard made out of stacked accrylic and it also
include brass layers as weight and inclinaison feet (5
degrees angle).
I originally made this keyboard at my
local maker space and since I got good feedback I decided to
make a “production” prototype with more features than the
first one.
It turned out very good and all the pictures
in this thread are real picture of this second prototype.
I’m
very happy with the current design but external feedback is
always good so here it is. you can find the IC form below to
answer some basic questions and maybe share your tough about
this keyboard

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)
What is the project timeline after this IC ?
The current design is fully ready for productions (I
have quotes) so I plan to start the GB around late January
unless there are some major changes to the design after the
IC results.
Once the GB period will be complete I plan
on delivering after 3 months.
Will there be delay due to the current PCB components
shortage ?
No, I already have all the PCB in my possession so
this will not cause any delay
What colours are available ?
One single colour available for now (matte black) but
feel free to suggest alternatives colours in the IC Form and
I’ll consider the options if the demand is high enough.
Same
goes for the weight material, brass is not the only option
possible.
How many units are you planning to make ?
As stated above I will make no more than 100 units
rather than doing an unlimited GB for human capabilities
reasons. I don’t have access to a warehouse so I don’t think
I can handle very large productions.
You mentioned WK WKL and HHKB support, how many units of
each are available ?
The current prototype is WK but I will include 2
extra layers for HHKB and WKL layout in the base kit, so you
will be able to choose or switch between the options at any
time.
What will be the GB format ?
The GB will be FCFS (First Come First Served). I
don’t have proxies for now but if most of the potential
buyers lives far from me I can contact them to work
something out (I’m living in EU).
What about a Founder Edition ?
I can make a full brass version of this board (that
would weigh a whopping 3kg unbuilt) if the demand is high
enough but it would be a very limited run.
