I'm tempted but its the creme cheese that I'm after, also the miami vice is just too far gone for me.

Yah, that set looks soooo good. But at these prices, I can't say "no"...plus, I need something to dress my keyboard in until the cream cheese sets get done.

I'd say yes in a heartbeat, if there was a uk specific option. Don't think I'll get into groupbuys in geekhack as I'll always have to take a hit on the keys that just don't match my region. The nov keys ill be happy to get in on mind.

I forgot to post these pics over here. This is the 2nd of 2 prototype PCBs we ordered. I was able to test the ISO layout and make sure it worked and then continued to build a complete ANSI layout Phantom. I have it in a Filco Zero case. All keycaps shown are 100% authentic Cherry Corp caps

You have to get the MXSUPERGREY next time. Those would be awesome. I bet they go ka-chunk instead of click at 105cN.

Wait until all items successfully shipped, then we will sell off the security reserve (except for the TEENSY).

Rumor has it someone received a bunch of PCBs, stabilizers, and pin headers recently.

When do you think that you will be able to shop out the Phantom kits?
I have been thinking of having a small keyboard party in Stockholm, Sweden some time. I suppose that the Phantoms will arrive much sooner than the lead-time we need for a real party, but anyway.

We will need some more artistic shots later to show off PrinsValium's cool design. It is dark color, should work well as DT's header picture.

Looks seriously awesome right there, must weigh quite a bit!
You've mentioned not selling any extra teensy's, in case you change your mind- interested!
Also possibly interested in phantom leftovers, them pcb's look hawt..

I haven't soldered anything for about 10 years and that guide made me feel 100 times more confident. Going to test my skills by taking my Poker apart this weekend

Send me a PM when this is about to happen, or I will probably miss out...

Been making more 7x costar stabilizer bars today. So I figured I would make a video to show you all how to make one yourself if you need to. I can make one in about 5 minutes now.

"by hand" he says xD edit: okok, it IS manual; but I won't be able to repeat this with just my hands, for sure.
Nifty tool! Though I can't think of any other use apart from exactly this; bought it espescially for this purpose I guess?
