The plate isn't pictured, but I would like to know if it is a suspended plate design (screwed into the top of case) or is the pcb going to be screwed down into the botton/base of the case like a standard 60%?

breitling88 The plate mounts to the bottom of the case by four little pegs just line them up with the four holes on the plate (there's one each corner), then the top piece goes over it and then just screw it in from underneath.

Anywhere I can just get the cap set and/or the case? I have a Leopold F660 and this looks like the exact same layout.

SnailEDK/r/mechmarket. It’s an expensive set though. Currently about 4x the original price.

Seeing the "supported layouts" section made me wonder, does this pcb support ISO/IEC layout?

I put this keyboard together yesterday. It looks great and it feels well built. I haven't had a chance to use it for an extended period. So far the cherry browns feel nice (I've never used that switch before). I also used bandaids for my stabs which really does make them quieter.
I like my keycaps but they are not complete. I need a smaller 1U alt and a right shift -- something else to buy.
As always, the firmware is a pain in the ass on MacOS. Once you get it programmed, you're fine, but actually getting the flasher software to recognize your keyboard is hit or miss. I ended up having to program it using my Windows PC even though I plan on using it only on MacOS. Just a word of warning if you only have access to Macs.

You may want to ask this question in /r/olkb on Reddit. They'll get you sorted out good. :-)

I am having the exact same issue as you. Same row even, the tab row. I tested continuity on every switch, diode, and resistor, still stumped at why that row is dead. I am on Linux, and similar to you as well this isn't my first kit so I don't think it was the solder. I am going to try to re-solder all the switches in that row, but otherwise I am stumped.

Really wish there were more pictures of each different color. Does the silver case have black sides or silver sides? It's not entirely clear from the one picture.

StrangeloveEsqAnnoying that I had to hunt around for this myself, but I found this picture of the silver case on Reddit. I think this is the one in the drop, but it's also odd because the pictures on this page make it look like the silver case has black sides.
