We are psychetype and we would like to introduce our first project, the Navi60.
The Navi60 is a 60% top mount/o-ring mount with a full CNC aluminum case and brass weight.
This project is a part of the #lainttl (time to live) program. We aim to provide a high quality keyboard for both keyboard and Lain enthusiasts.
Its design is inspired by Abe’s original design of Lain’s personal Navi computer/keyboard. The kit comes with a two-piece case with a brass weight that is engraved with the Copland OS logo.
