I will see how much they cost and I will try to organize a group buy.

Huzzah!

That's looking snazzy!

Thanks to potek I am here. Let's get this GB started.

Got an email updated yesterday and looks like I overpaid $5. Hmm... Ask for a refund or order something else...?

Ah, crap. That's what I meant to write, then. Can you change my selection for Kit 3 from 1 to 0, then? Thanks!

Hey there, how's progress on this?!

I've had correspondence with Sixty over the past few weeks. He is alive and well. Just in case anyone was wondering :D Popped in here out of curiosity only. I never knew sixty. But what about Soarer, photekq? Is he alive? Did anything bad happen to him? I owe Soarer! He gave me a lot of help in my ...

Good.

I bought some springs and they were delivered within a month. But that was when he was most active last summer. Asked him about a few other things since and haven't heard back. Submitted an order for some stabs and haven't gotten an invoice.

He's a scammer.

Ouch. That's a lot of dough.

Very nice!

Dunno how I completely missed this. Definitely interested in it!

I think it's fine.

Now that my exams have ended I will have the time to make a proper start on the design of the casing.

Sweet. Missed out on a couple of 65% boards. Would love to try one out.

Pretty sure Danger Zone was by someone else (Data?). lsb did Jukebox.

What is that? A typewriter cap?

That looks cool, but wouldn't it be better to have the Fn next to the right Shift? Or is the purpose of this to use caps Unicomp makes? That is a great idea. Thank you for your input. I'm not at all married to the left bottom row mods. At a minimum I'd like to keep the arrow keys and the right Alt ...

Success! Success! Success! IqcKbl-oIMM I just assembled the F62 prototype complete inner assembly and can confirm that this Model F redesign project is a success! It truly deserves the Model F moniker. We will be going forward with the group buy before month end. I will definitely continue testing ...

I'd like to know if anyone else is interested in bhtooefr's layout: http://bhtooefr.org/images/KeyboardLayouts/F63Arrows.png If so, it would be helpful if we had more people to contribute to required tooling costs, which will probably be around $500 according to Ellipse. I don't mind paying extra m...

Woot-woot! Finally got my caps!

Phew. That saves me from deciding when I can order more. Looking forward to seeing what else you got!

Last few hours left! Thanks everybody! When the drop started I told MD we would have sold 200, they estimated 500 but we will probably end close to 1300! Now to making some tutorials! Absolutely fantastic. Congratulations, matt3o! I'm too poor to join this time around. Do you foresee another drop i...

I really enjoyed it as well. It had just about everything I was looking for in a new Star Wars film and barring a few annoying inconsistencies/bad decisions/plot holes was a great watch - and I fully expect those niggles to be explained in the future films. I've seen a few people absolutely slammin...

Too many kits!!!

Will have to see it myself to be sure.

JJ's always been a huge fan of Star Wars. Star Trek he was sorta new to when he rebooted the films.

Dunno, yo.

Have you seen the WhiteFox massdrop page? Not published yet (newsletter) and more than 1200 requests and 170 comments in the discussion. A complete success before begining!! Only 500 units.

I take them all.

I must take a look what I have. There might be a 6.25 units space bar left.

I'll consider any old stock you may have.

Anyone in the States get theirs yet? I realize it's the holidays, so everything's all backed up, but just curious to see so I can gauge when mine should arrive.
