First, we didn't design the google form very reasonable and as a result it took me a lot of time to communicate with some of you to confirm the information.



Second, I didn't think over about the options. As a result, there were too many options to make. Three layouts and with/without nameplates, that's 6 types of cases for just 40 kits. We also offered too many color options which seriously increased our and the factory's workload. You know it's much more expensive to make 40 different cases than 40 same cases. I negotiated with the factory many times to make it happen.



I learnt a lot about your demands. As many people suggested, we changed the design of the seam in the middle of two pieces, changed the suitcase, added another option for the plate, and so on.



There are also some requests we didn't make true, like ALPS plate/pcb, split backspace.

We didn't print numbers on the nameplate of founder editions. They were printed Orange in place. We didn't make it right because the technician was tired with the tons of options of small order.



For 2 or 3 plates we didn't make the color right. The fault is on our side that the packing people told me that after the packages were send out.

It took us 10 days to examine all the 40 boards. We checked the packages carefully but I'm still not 100 percent sure all the boards are perfect.

After we accept all the payments or after July 25th, we will start manufacturing and sourcing the keyboard parts.

We will also offer MX openable cutout plate! The normal MX cutout plate is still the default option. If you need the plate supports switchtop remove, please leave a message at the end of the form when you fill in it.

There was a small gap between the top and bottom cases. As many of you requested, we decide to remove the gap and make the keyboard has a cleaner look. Please PM me if you have already filled in the form but don't like this change.



We are coming!



I named it Orange because the inspiration comes from oranges.

I provide the thinner design and high quality material.

They make the keyboard out of the ordinary. Wish you will like it.
