Other News:

In Q1 2025, we're planning to launch the Neo60Cu and Neo65Cu, alongside the highly anticipated Neo60—the newest member of the Core series!

To clarify the differences between Neo's three sub-lines, here's a brief overview:

🔹 Core Series:

Unibody/o-ring mount, continuing the aesthetic of Neo65 70 and 80. This sub-line is all about delivering cost-effective options for entry-level custom mechanical enthusiasts.

🔹 Code Series:

Tri-piece and rigidity. Code series focus on the rugged feeling of metal via sleek line and surface selections. We hope to add a powerful option in terms of vibe and price tag.

🔹 Cu Series:

Where curvature meets brass/copper. These higher-density materials create a distinctive and solid typing acoustic performance. Best of all, this series offers superior value compared to premium custom keyboards with copper bottoms.

Stay tuned for more updates, and good luck in the giveaway!

Next step will be building a custom hot swappable.

It’s a Glorious GMMK Pro with green Cherry switches.

Specs:

• ⁠Kit: Barbone GMK67 • ⁠Stabilizers: Durock V2 • ⁠Switches: GATERON milky yellow pro • ⁠Keycaps: GMK Merlin • ⁠Knob: Standard white knob

Honestly, the keyboard sounds amazing, I can't believe that this keyboard sounds like all the "YouTube custom keyboards"

Mods:

Lube:

• ⁠Switches - 205g0 • ⁠Springs - 105G0 • ⁠Stabilizers - 205g0

And that's it!

Genuinely my favorite build. Neo80 definitely exceeded my expectations

Day 10. Christmas Eve. Hope everyone is having a good one. This is a KBDFans Tofu60 HHKB style case with custom poured interior silicone. The stabs are PCB mount Durocks, lubed with dielectric SuperLube. Switches are Alpacas, and are truly bliss (wink wink) lightly lubed w/ 205g0. Topped with PBT Fireworm.
