Hello everyone, I'm kwk236 from San Francisco!

I'm super excited to share a project that's close to my heart. As a software engineer, I've always been a big fan of the HHKB keyboard layout. This passion led me to create my very own keyboard version, tailored to be the perfect blend of style and functionality. Here's a sneak peek at what makes it special:

1. It's got a cool, minimalist look with a sharp focus on the quality of the metal finishes.
2. Acoustics and typing experience - it must be super satisfying and comfortable. Minimized vibration and reduced high pitch sounds.
3. Great for coding marathons or gaming sessions.

Now, diving into the specs:

* Dimensions: 294mm x 111mm x 20mm x 35mm.
* Typing Angle: 6 degrees.
* Layout Options: Two variants – HHKB and 60%, both accommodated in identically sized cases.
* Mounting System: Poron Gasket Mount style for a seamless feel.
* Detachable Bottom Weight: Brass or Copper
* Material Choices: Aluminum, Titanium, or Stainless Steel
* Metal Finishes: hairline / mirror polish / aerospace
* Space Bar: A centered 7u space bar
* PCB: Custom-designed PCB, but it is also compatible with the h60.
* Dampener: Merino wool felt bottom dampener
* Construction: Internal screws ensure a sleek exterior with no visible holes.

Also, I'm excited to announce that the prototype is in the manufacturing phase. Stay tuned for updates!
