Logo will be repositioned
Hello peeps, it has
been more than a year since Jane CE. Many things happened
during this period of time. ivan went missing, juahenza
rised as the pride of Asia, Trump became POTUS, still no
re-run of digilog (maybe I should try that someday). All
these aside, I hope you guys are well.
About TGR 65% aka 910
65% is probably the best layout, be it for
Overwatcher or casual type. There was a period of time when
I used only the HHKB. LZ-SQ is the one that pulled me back
from the dark side. TGR-910 is designed to provide the best
typing feeling in a compact layout, while maintaining a
effective number of keys. The design (?) is highly
influenced from the older Korean customs.
Design
Unlike latest trends in keyboard hobby, there is
nothing fancy or loud in the TGR design. The classy design
concept is continued from the Jane. I had thought about
adopting the “top casing over the bottom of the case”
feature which can easily resolve the issue about top-bottom
gap, sharp edges, and uneven anodizing issue; but that
seemed to make the board look less elegant. In my opinion,
the old way is the best way.
Supported layouts:
Material
Alcoa Mic 6 or Kobelco
5052
Reason behind the new material is consistency in
quality of the aluminium and to avoid impurities.
In
order to minimize the gap between the top and bottom parts,
the edges have to be sharp. Strong sandblasting will
introduce a small radius to the edges and make the gap
obvious. I will be using a milder sandblasting with chemical
etching technique to minimise the case gap. This technique
requires extra effort for perfect machining/handling and
prevention of oxidation during pre-anodising process etc.
The
finishing that I am trying to achieve for the TGR-910 will
be a lot like Lynn’s older boards (ie Dolphin, Whale, and
EM7). The quality of the finishing depends a lot of the
quality of the raw material, this new material will be the
best for the kind of finishing that satisfy my strict
requirement.
PCB
I have gotten
the permission from Winkeyless’ Hojin to design my own PCB
with their firmware and GUI. With the help of Leeku and
Quadcube, a PCB was specially designed for 910.
Color
- Black, silver and grey
- Pink or Cyan (?)
Price
300$ to 350$
Potato
-
There’s a small piece of diffuser underneath the logo. Had
it tested, I am still not blind.
-
Will use a less thick diffuser (1.5mm perhaps)
-
The board looks so much more classy without the side
diffuser
All the failed prototypes
More
There are more. 12 units iinm. I will need to fix
them and sell to cover back the cost sigh
