I’d prefer flat black of some kind, but I could live with raw alum / silver.

First of all, thanks for coming back after two years to comment on this thread. :+1:

Secondly, I hope to be able to offer at least two colors as I think the black would fit better in the aluminum Heavy-6 cases and silver might work best in the polycarb version.

Honestly, I would. It’s irrational, but I’m quite irrational when it comes to this hobby.

The hobby itself is irrational. I say: own it. :blush:

Off topic question - Would the Heavy 6 make a comeback at some stage?

Just FYI, the current plate design will not work with the TX660c.

This is good to know! :wink:

I went ahead and chopped up my prototype plate last night to try something else out, if this all goes according to plan I should be able to offer other plate materials again, possibly even half plates.

Stay tuned. Apologies this is taking so long, life uhh, finds a way…to get in the way.

Any chance for QMK and hot-swap potential?

@r4bbl3d4bbl3 Would you happen to know if the keys on your 660 that you are photographing are available anywhere? I plan on picking up a polycarb 660 case from Ryan soon (Easter special!) and would love to have the black keycaps with white font since my stock black on black are a bit hard to see for the family. :slight_smile:

Cheers! Looking forward to further updates!

Best,
Paul

Hey Paul, those caps you may be referring to are actually a set of stock FC660C caps that I no longer own. I believe they were sort of rare and not offered on recent FC660C releases.

I don’t think I will be able to do hotswap this time around, the PCB is pretty much finalized. As for QMK, I guess I should have asked what the preference was, I just assumed VIA would be easiest for everyone.
