Hey, elli from Moesode. Ode is meant to be a reimagination of the OTD Mini.
When I first started on this over a year ago I wanted to recreate the look and feel of the Mini.
This board's mounting is a gummy worm o-ring gasket mount, and uses a 1.2mm CEM3 PCB with flexcuts.
With the combination of mounting, PCB, and plate choice you will be in for a nice typing experience.
A full plate gives a very even feel across the whole board, while with a half plate will having the alphas feel very bouncy.
Minimum order quantity is 100 boards.
Want to know whether or not people are interested in this board, want to know if people would be interested in a WKL top possibly.
Also if any other plate materials I should offer. My only concern is plastic plates will probably require you to have shelf liner under the PCB.
