WHAT:
I'm doing a group buy for custom keyboard kit. The parts are compatible with all popular 60% PCBs and plates, so you could potentially part out the full kit if you chose.
- The cases are bent 304 18 ga steel with several mounting points for compatibility.
- The switchplates are 16 ga stainless steel supporting all PCB layouts and both MX and Alps switches. Both steel parts take to aesthetic modifications very well.
- The PCB supports several different bottom row layouts, including an arrow cluster on the top layer. It has oversized LED holes for proper SIP socket insertion. NOTE: This version of the PCB does NOT support alps switches. There is also monochrome underglow. PCBs are flashed with ps2avrGB and fully support bootmapperclient.

Here is an album with images of the parts that will be cut

And here is an album of the assembled parts

You will receive:

1. 1x - Custom 60% PCB (Gazzew66)
2. 1x - 60% brushed steel switchplate supporting multiple layouts and both MX and Alps switches
3. 1x - Bottom 60% brushed bent steel case
4. 1x - Set of screws and standoffs for assembly


HOW MUCH:
The price will be $85 with CONUS shipping included. I will ship internationally, but the shipping price will increase depending on location. Please contact me if you would like to place an international order. Order form is below:

WHEN:
The GB will close on 4/14 at midnight. I extended the end date to accommodate additional entrants. Upon wrapping of the GB, I will confirm and send out invoices in the following 3 days. You will receive emails from my personal account, and any email requiring a response will receive one within 24 hours. If the information is relevant, the response will be cross-posted to GH and r/mk.

I expect the parts to come in within 60 days of the order placement date. The completion length is mostly dependent on the PCB production; since it is a custom order, the functionality and viability of the parts are being monitored at every available opportunity. I should have the parts and will prepare them for shipping in the 3 days following the order fulfilment, with everyone receiving tracking info to their Paypal email.

Any questions, please ask!

Just curious, does this work as a PCB mount build? or is the plate required to secure the PCB to the case?

Nope, you could just use the PCB if you wanted, though you'd need to source your own hardware, because the included would be too long for a non-plate build. I haven't tested that config at all, so YMMV.

Any possibility for an ISO option?

Not for this round unfortunately, but it does have split right and left shift options, if that tickles your fancy.

NOTE: This version of the PCB does NOT support alps switches. Updated the post above.
