Erm, Ellipse's YouTube videos aren't showing up and says the account was terminated. I just viewed them several hours ago too.
And glad to see news of modern layout Model F keyboards they look nice.

Re: Beam Spring 104+SSK Reproduction Project! First Batch In Stock, Shipping early next year after New Model F Project
After listening to the videos and reading the descriptions of the Round 2 boards I think I like the idea of ordering one of those compared to the Round 1 boards. I like the muffled sound a bit more, but they both sound great. I do love how compact the Round 1 boards are though they look sleek. Thank...

Re: Beam Spring 104+SSK Reproduction Project! First Batch In Stock, Shipping early next year after New Model F Project
As noted before, the beam spring project is designed to reproduce the performance and functionality (weighting, travel distance, module specifications) of the originals but with some updates (shortened the two plastic parts of the beam module without altering the travel distance); the sound is not ...

Re: Beam Spring 104+SSK Reproduction Project! First Batch In Stock, Shipping early next year after New Model F Project
Hey Ellipse are we going to get a sound test comparing the different cases (the compact vs newly designed) and original beamspring boards this year or more towards next year when they're ready to ship? I am also a little confused didn't you have to redesign or change something to the design so the c...

Re: Beam Spring 104+SSK Reproduction Project! First Batch In Stock, Shipping early next year after New Model F Project
I think I'm more interested in the ANSI layout since keycap options would be numerous and cheaper, but I am unopposed to ISO. As for the multiple split options, as awesome as it would be, I don't want to hurt my wallet anymore than I have to for this awesome keyboard. I also don't want to add to the...

Re: Beam Spring 104+SSK Reproduction Project! First Batch In Stock, Shipping early next year after New Model F Project
Based on the MX key stem design I am not sure that is possible for one PCB to support that; I think it would have to be different top inner assembly, inner foam, and PCB parts for each layout. Darn, I thought as much. If there is only one layout offered, I am unsure if you are planning on offering ...

Re: Beam Spring 104+SSK Reproduction Project! First Batch In Stock, Shipping early next year after New Model F Project
Is it possible for the second batch that the PCB could support ISO, HHKB, and ISO? Have a split backspace (2 1U keys), split left shift (1 1.25U and 1U) and right shift (1 1U and 1.75U or 1.75U and 1U (not sure which way is preferred)), and a split enter. That way you have a 2.25U ANSI enter sits, i...

Re: Beam Spring 104+SSK Reproduction Project! First Batch In Stock, Shipping early next year after New Model F Project
I think I filled out the interest form back in August or September. I only put in for one of each keyboard I think. Is there a way to check or should I just fill the form out again? I like the idea of doing one of each round and I may want to add to it. And while I am here I really like the Beamspri...

Re: F62+F77 orders now open! New Kishsaver+Industrial Model F Keyboards
Okay I finally got my solenoid sorta installed. Unfortunately, where the video tells me to screw in the solenoid on my F77 in place of the foot it would not fit properly because of the screws on both sides of the solenoid. This caused the keyboard plate to move down on the left side making it imposs...

Re: F62+F77 orders now open! New Kishsaver+Industrial Model F Keyboards
I actually just bought an old IBM 5150 computer. It came with the keyboard and monitor (case didn't fare too well but it works). The keys pretty much feel the same other than more wear on the used keyboard. The reproductions really get it down pat. I'd say the biggest difference is the spacebar. The...

Re: F62+F77 orders now open! New Kishsaver+Industrial Model F Keyboards
You can configure n-key rollover in qmk.. It's disabled by default to make keyboards compatible also with older BIOSes.. But I agree that it does not make much sense as a default... Thanks for letting us know, so I take it I would need the latest QMK software to change this setting then? I don't th...

Re: F62+F77 orders now open! New Kishsaver+Industrial Model F Keyboards
I am testing out my new Model F 77 and when testing the N-Key rollover I noticed that it's only allowing me to press 6 keys at once instead of n keys like on my F62s. Is it due to the QMK Software? I am pretty sure my older keyboards are on the older ibm capsense software or whatever it is called. ...

And I noticed that they have a giant fo...

Re: F62+F77 orders now open! New Kishsaver+Industrial Model F Keyboards
That looks nice. Wish the compacts' USB connectors were flush with the case but what can you do. Just have to be more careful when connecting the cord. I do have a question. My spacebar seems really quiet compared to my other keys, like the spring isn't buckling, and so when I tried to remove it lik...

Re: F62+F77 orders now open! New Kishsaver+Industrial Model F Keyboards
Okay I got my keys on, but when I plug in my keyboard nothing registers. Is there a way to see if my computer recognises the keyboard, or is there software I need to download first?
EDIT: Nevermind. I guess I didn't have my USB in all the way? I just twisted it around.

Thanks mate. I'll mess with it tomorrow.

And I don't have any sort of lu...

Re: F62+F77 orders now open! New Kishsaver+Industrial Model F Keyboards
Awesome!
I do have a question about the stabilisers for the keyboard. Is the larger width part the the white stabiliser supposed to be flush with the barrel or above the barrel? I don't want to accidentally press it down too far or try to.

Progress is looking good on these keyboards. I can't wait to type on mine.
I also have been seeing people placing Solenoids in the chassis, and it makes me laugh at just how outrageously noisy yet awesome this keyboard can sound. Really cool, unique idea.
