[End of Mar 20 '19]
Hey, everyone! I'm Shiang Yu from Doyu Studio.
This is group buy for Doyu Studio - Chiwi60 kit R2.
The Chiwi60 was conceived by the mechanical keyboard community member gok from New Zealand who named the keyboard after a colloquial term that was short for Chinese Kiwi.
The board is designed to have medium sized bezels with a 30 degree chamfer on the top face to provide visual interest to the most visible face of the keyboard.
30 degrees has been specifically chosen so that the top and side bezels still have presence from natural viewing angles despite the faces tapering away and also makes the keyboard appear shorter and sleeker.
The design aims to provide the keyboard with a seamless aesthetic and underglow that is integrated rather than just an afterthought.
A unique features of the keyboard are the optional dual 3u spacebar layout which allows for splitspace with convex spacebars rather than what you would usually have with the 2.25/1.25/2.75 split.

Things you might want to know / FAQs :- Will XXX PCB fit this kit? :
Quick answer : NO.
Details : we made USB port fit with only 0.5mm tolerance for the cutout.
That means no other PCB will fit the design unless they made their PCB based on out design.
Which means the only 1 fit I know is PCB for Chiwi60 made by Maarten.
