TwoBit "Noble" KeyboardIC Form:
https://forms.gle/JwbX73qb37LQjdhY9Introduction
Hello, my name is Danny/TwoBit and I recently stumbled upon this community. As I was fascinated by the designs and varieties of keyboards I decided to create my own. With almost no experience in engineering/CAD this seemed to be impossible. Yet I made this post here today to introduce my brand new company, TwoBit with my first Prototype of the "Noble" Keyboard. The aim was to design a very unique but minimalist keyboard to feel premium, heavy and sound elegant.
Due to the high costs of creating my own business, I will start a kickstarter campaign to crowdfund this keyboard project.

6061 Aluminum Case
Color Options: E-White / Anodized Black
Mirror Polished or Sandblasted Brass Weight
Default Brass Plate
Features:
Top-Mount
Custom ANSI and ISO Hot-Swap PCBs (Prototypes in progress)
Seamless Case Design (Design changes in progress as I need to rework the plate, some measurements, deepening of the screws)

Compatible with QMK
What’s in the box?

Default Brass Plate

Prototype Information:
The color for this prototype is Anodized Black, but I am not very happy with the look as it is not dark enough.
