In late March I hope to get the F122 and F107 foam express mailed from the factory.

So we may start seeing our F77's rolling out of your factory, around April or May this year?

:o :o :o You mean it's now a confirmed JUNE delivery ? :shock: :shock: :shock:

The Model-F ecstasy shall be experienced worldwide when it arrives. In fact my minions have to check my heart beat, to see if I haven't karked from all this excitement and of course immense anticipation for this keyboard.

I shall be partying like it's 1999, when the F77 is finally launched into the World.

Party like it's 1983 or whenever Model Fs were made.

I can already imagine myself with a F77 on my desk during this summer and just typing away garbage just because I enjoy the sound so much ...

I can understand you, but as so many things in life ... there is a premium price tag on quality.

You are right. It's a quality product and probably costs less than the original Model Fs back in the day. I'm hoping to god the MF PCB will be cheap at least.

The price is definitely justified IMO. And it's a lot cheaper than trying to find an original F62/F77.

If the quality lives up to an original F62 / F77, I hope we'll call those Modern F62 / F77. It has a nice rings to it, like Modern Selectric.

I was one of the few that signed on early simply due to WHO was running this show.

Because I have dealt with him before I knew a brand new Model-F would eventuate and when it finally arrives, it will be a time known as before the F77 period (doom and gloom) and then after, the F77 release.

Everyone before the F77 period lived in fearful times with broken dreams but after the F77, it shall become a Renaissance of Joy and Hope in the field of Keyboards. Youngsters will rejoice in the streets, knowing that for the first time in their lives an input device that stands above all others that makes typing, a jubilation of the spirit :D .

We will have preachers jumping up and down their aisle's praising this new revelation of TRUTH. The F77 was presented to them by Jesus himself and a new world order shall be bestowed upon the masses. Not one of Fear and Desperation but one of Aspiration and Triumph.

YES people, we are getting close to a new area of rapture and bliss, hence the need to believe in this is far more powerful than any artificial drug or fake propaganda off the TV.

This is finally becoming REAL and at the same time something to embrace and enjoy. Bring it on Ellipse, deliver our F77 epoch so that humanity has finally something to live for.

The key factory has returned from the holiday break and will now start working on the PBT key tolerances. The keys need to be a little smaller coming out of the mold so they need to adjust and test the molds. They are experimenting with the PBT color mixing to get the right colors.

The factory is ready to start the dark gray color mixing. It's difficult for me to tell from the keyboard photos. What's a recommended Pantone/RAL value for the dark grey printed keys? Please post your recommendations. I'll also cross post in the other thread.

And while we're waiting, I am playing with the design for the layers on the keyboard and how I think they will work best for me.
Wanted to share my F62 idea:
