custom wristrests are a genius idea! sounds like a gimmick, but putting magnets in them and the case would help it line up

I'm still on the fence about adding magnets. Looks like a lot of work and idk if it could cause problems if people want to use it with a different keyboard. I'm not completely against it though.

I know this kind of sounds like a dumb idea, but naming it the Level 7 would be a good name in my opinion.

I just have one idea to improve it, on the edge above the arrow keys add a small logo like in the think6.5, i think that would make it look so clean! Great vid

Make a wristrest a cover for a keyboard, to quickly put in on the top of keyboard and easy for transport or cover the keyboard from dust.

why not just make a custom wrist rest to match your current fav kb, or just make the wrist rest part of the kb, the two piece thing seems redundent cause customers would just want to buy the board without the wrist rest to ssve money

Hello I personally wouldn't like the look if the wrist rest was attached, and I would like the option to use my wrist rest with different keyboards.

👀👍! cool idea! one thing that i have to say is to not put a mounting point under the spacebar area as it tends to stiffen the spacebar and makes the sound not as resonant.

Do you think I should remove those mounts all together? Maybe I can leave them in and make it clear that those screws are optional?

@@Lv7Kevin Honestly, I'm not a keyboard designer, so I'm not really the right person to be asking this kind of stuff, but I've been looking at other people's top mounted keyboard designs and where they put the mounting screw points and why. I would suggest you to do the same, and even ask people in keyboard designer's discord servers to ask questions.

I personally recommend adding a JST connection to the PCB to the keyboard and brass wight I will also like to see gummy-o-ring mount support with top mount 70a include 2 pice design will works well with thick internals to reduce pind and hollowness I would also want to see flex cuts on the top mount plate and half plate support

Sry for the blunt feedback, but the design is a little too plain and uninteresting vs the competition. The number of options, complexity and price point of modern day customs is hard to compete against unless the project has the backing of a larger company.

Really the project is for me to have something that solves a very specific problem of mine so I understand most people won't even be interested. The goal is not to maximize profits or anything it's simply to make something that I personally want. It's possible not enough people will fund the group buy, and that's completely ok with me.
