Introducing my new project, Mech27! This is the Mech27-TKL.
The Mech27 project is something that I’ve been wanting to do for a while and I’ve already had some great preliminary feedback.

So What’s It Made Of?
Good question! The Mech27-TKL is made of CNC milled aluminum and anodized in a selection of colours, with a 2mm thick acrylic mid-piece in a frosted colour to show off the beautiful side/case lighting on the PCB. The plate, also anodized aluminum, is waterjet cut.

Extra Info and Thanks
Orders will be limited to 100 boards
I’m raising some money for a prototype, and the factory I’ve been in contact with is currently flooded with orders so I may have to wait a month or two before placing an order for it. I have an outdated design on the way, which will be an indicator of quality and colour.
Big thanks to Yuksti for the TGR Jane files the Mech27-TKL is based on, Photekq, Rama, and Joey for their awesome feedback, and everyone else who has been involved with this in some way. Files will be open sourced and free for use after the group buy concludes.
If there are any questions feel free to ask and I’ll try my best to answer.
