Hi friends, it's finally time for me to put up the thread about the TMO50! For those of you who are not aware, this is a compact keyboard project made by
funderburker. He is a very good friend of mine. While I am handling the group buy, all credit for creation goes to him. I am really excited to help bring this board to the community!

Each person in the buy will receive only one aluminum top in their color of choice. You are limited to ordering only 2 duplicate parts if you choose to do so. This means you can order up to 2 PCBs, 2 plates, and 2 bottoms.So, if you don't order any duplicate parts, here is what your board kit will look like! You'll receive one of each of these items.
- PCB $40
- aluminum top (your choice of color) $85
- plate (your choice of material and color) price depends on part you select
- bottom (your choice of material and color) price depends on part you select
Switches and indicator LEDs are not included. If you want to use the indicator LEDs, I recommend 2x3x4 LEDs so that they are flush against the case. You will need to solder the switches yourself, or find an awesome awesome friend to do so for you! No key caps are included. Please refer to the IC to look at what size of keys you will need. Remember that there are two different ways you can stagger the middle row on the PCB.
Colors:For aluminum, you will have a range of colors to choose from. Any material that is aluminum can be colored one of these 6 colors.
How this will work:I will be posting the google form on
September 27, 2018 at 1300 PDT (UTC -7). It will be open for 24 hours. Please only fill out the form if you intend on buying.
Originally, my plan was to submit our order after the mid-autumn festival but my manufacturer requested that I submit before the holiday so they can prep the order to be completed when they return from holiday leave. Because of this, I've had to move the raffle day ahead by a couple days so that we may submit the order sooner.There will be
30 slots available. If there are more than 30 entries submitted to the form, I will be raffling them. Invoices will be sent out within the next few days. They will include cost of the board, shipping, and PayPal fees.
Entry form: CLOSEDThanks for reading! :3[/list]
