The SALVATION combines the soft and vibrant typing experience of an innovative leaf spring mounting system with a 60% tray case design.
The PCB is supported by silicon rubber standoffs attached to FR4 (fiberglass) leaf springs mounted to the case. Foam pads underneath the leaf springs provide vibration dampening and force modulation.
The leaf springs provide exceptional flexibility, allowing the entire plate/PCB subassembly to yield under keystrokes and vibrate in isolation from the case. The result is a typing experience that is soft and vibrant across the whole keyboard.
The SALVATION is designed for customization and experimentation. Build it with the stock FR4 plate, or use third-party 60% plates made of metal or plastic. Build it half-plate or plateless. Tweak the foam pad placement to make the leaf springs more or less flexible. Modify the stock FR4 plate to have slots that match the WT60-D WEIRDFLEX PCB, or into a half-plate design. Make your own leaf springs out of other materials.

The KL-90 from Kiko’s Lab has returned, this time in beautiful polycarbonate fashion! The KL-90 is offered in four colours: Midnight Black, Tiffany Blue, Purple Haze, and Frosted Ice, and not only has the choice between a solderable and hotswap kit, but also between having dual encoders and an encoder + OLED screen combo. The OLED screen can be programmed through QMK, and if you’re handy with code, you can do some amazing things with it (like make a bongo cat slap every keypress, for example)! There’s also a broad selection of plate materials, which will make everybody’s build unique.

The first wave of Nazaré 1-60 has finally arrived! Designed by Invezting, longtime community member and founder of Nazaré Engineering, the Nazaré 1-60 has been meticulously crafted to offer a unique look, sound, and feel.
Nazaré 1-60‘s case is made of machined aluminium and features a symmetrical bezel designed to compliment its low front height and provide a clean top-view, as well as a distinctive aluminium blocker badge adorning its bottom right corner. The case bottom bears a novel design; with copper and brass weights representing the sun and moon respectively, and an ocean blue polycarbonate insert betwixt that evokes the waves their immense gravity make on Earth. Nazaré 1-60 also features a custom “rail-ring” mounting system that uses eight gummy O-rings to completely isolate the plate from the case, fitting snugly into the case’s machined grooves (or “rails”) while preserving the keyboard’s sleek form factor.

Designed to honour the materials used in its construction, Chapter 1 shows off the parts that make up the board in a sophisticated and striking fashion. Mix and match plates, knobs, and weights to create the board of your dreams, with hundreds of possible combinations! All Chapter 1 boards come with a shell case and a promotional comic book, and several deskmats that match the comic’s style are available for purchase!
Chapter 1 features an engraved single-piece weight that spans the width of the keyboard, creating an amazing typing sound that only gets better with higher density weight material like brass, copper, or steel! Each Chapter 1 case also comes with an encoder knob that matches the material and colour of the chosen kit, with alternate colours and materials available for seperate purchase!
Finally, the Chapter 1‘s leaf spring plate was designed to achieve a bouncier, softer typing feel that is perfectly realized in the polycarb and aluminum plates, with the brass and copper plates providing a more rigid option for those who prefer a more traditional typing experience!

Based on the open-source design of the Bakeneko65, the Block-67 R2 makes a few key improvements over its progenitor. Notably, the internal dimensions of the board have been tweaked for better acoustics, the PCB has been changed to a multi-layout hotswap, and the front height has been adjusted to 17mm, complimenting the uniform 7mm bezel and giving the keyboard its titular blocky appearance.
A variety of spare parts are available for the Block-67, including plates, o-rings, PCBs, daughterboards, and case foam. Available materials for spare plates are Brass, FR-4, Polycarb, and POM, and the o-rings come in two durometers; the 55A o-ring is the default mount used by the Block67, whereas the 30A o-ring is softer, and contributes a bouncier typing feel to the board.
