you can always snip off the legs/pins from pcb mounted switches, so its always safer to go with pcb mount. but as Hojin said, b.series pcb support both so its up to you which one you choose

If you go to their korean site and pick any housing you can find a direct link to the manufacturers site. Then you just go into all products and… you’ve got pictures of all colors! Here is fluorescent translucent:

Also, just noticed you no longer offer orange switch stickers. Why?

[GraczParticipant]

Hey, I just found a case that would probably fit with the plate + B.Face PCB 😛
Here is the link: https://www.massdrop.com/buy/tex-acrylic-cnc-keyboard-case?mode=guest_open
It’s also made of acrylic. Here is a pic: https://massdrop-s3.imgix.net/product-images/texcase1.png?auto=format&fit=crop&w=761&dpr=1 I think it would look pretty cool with the B.Face PCB + that carbon plate.

Cheers

Im not sure about this one, you need to wait for Hojin (the guy from WKL) to respond.

[GraczParticipant]

Yup, layer 1 and 2 work as a plate. Here is an example: http://i.imgur.com/Bp2jf1o.jpg (source: https://www.reddit.com/r/MechanicalKeyboards/comments/3gqi6b/photos_b87_build_log_maybe_an_endgame_board/)

About the R and Non R:
The only difference is the led position – R has leds on the top of the switch, Non-R has them on the bottom of the switch.

[GraczParticipant]

Yup, you can request lubing + stickering. All you have to do is to find your PCB, select the switches you want and then change “Lubing and Stickering” to Lubing + Stickering, then choose the spring you want and sticker colour. BUT it’s expensive as f*ck (because it takes alot of time), so you could always do it on your own :P.

You need to solder them lol. The only solderless board right now is the Smart68.

[GraczParticipant]

Oh, okay. Thanks for the response. But could I use it for pause/break? It would be really useful for me for a push-to-talk bind that i can press with my mouse hand. If no, it’s not a problem since I dont own one right now (but I was planning to get one from ortholinearkeyboards).

[GraczParticipant]

No, you would need to set the Bottom row to HHKB Style (blank/1x/1.5x/7x/1.5x/1x/blank). Also, R Shift is a 1.75x but you can use a 2.75x (so basically combo.) If you want to replicate the HHKB Layout use 1x + 1x or combo backspace. Otherwise, it looks like its the same as the keyboard in the picture.

tl;dr its not winkeyless but blank/1u/1.5u/space (7u)/1.5x/1u/blank
