[@hanabi4108]

Thanks for the support! :D

[@bonita6650]

do you know if KBDfans will put together this type of keyboard for customers? i've been looking for one like this and finalyl found it! but i don't trust myself putting a keyboard together

[@hanabi4108]

Hello there! Sorry for the late reply! For the parts necessary for this build, you can purchase them individually from KBDFans (Bamboo case, keycaps, switches, stabilizers, and PCB) As for the soldering of switches onto the pcb, you can add this link in your cart so they can solder for you: kbdfans.com/collections/assembly-service/products/dz60-assembly-service?variant=34158197145739 Please do contact the customer service, or chat with them via the live chat function to ensure that they understand what your requirements are! Hope this helps :)

Wood cases are great for the sound they make. Wish they had a high profile case.

[@hanabi4108]

I agree! The choices with wood cases are really limited right now sadly..

[@muCephei_]

@@hanabi4108 I'm thinking I'd make a build with RGB pcb so it "hides" the underside of the switches

[@greymosnterbestmonster2085]

if you were to carry this keyboard around, is the bamboo case enough?

[@Andresgarrido-nk8cg]

Can I put a wooting pcb on this?

[@skeboxp]

the El nath music gave me flashbacks

[@hanabi4108]

HAHAH, all the nostalgia :D I really love some of their bgm!

[@ineedalife3169]

Just found your channel I really like this build :)

[@hanabi4108]

Thank you! And thanks for the support :D

[@pressaltf4495]

does it have an angle or is it flat?

[@hanabi4108]

It's flat!

[@BleuSkiiesFPS]

i really wanna build with this case and i have a ton of questions like did you use hotswap or regular pcb for this and can i use hotswap

[@hanabi4108]

Hey there! Feel free to ask and I'll answer to the best of my ability :) For this build, I used the regular(solder) pcb! I really wanted to build it with a hotswappable but I came across some comments on kbdfans website saying that the hotswap sockets get in the way with the screws on the back so it wouldn't fit into the case.

[@snoopy5913]

If you can chisel the small wooden ring around the screw holes a hot swappable pcb should work

[@YouTubeHandl3YAY]

did you use 2u left shift or 2.25 left shift

[@crazycool1128]

Love the colour combo. It is possible to install arrow keys on the DZ60 PCB? Will it require special programming?

[@hanabi4108]

I believe you can solder the layout you want with the dz60, then change the keys with VIA!

[@slav_tom8238]

Looks amazing

[@hanabi4108]

Thank you! :D

[@cheesefoam3635]

Are you sure if the hot swappable version doesn't fit into this case? Also, do you know if there is a high profile wood case?

[@hanabi4108]

I can't confirm about hotswap, all I saw was a comment someone made about the standoffs being in the way of the hotswap sockets. As for woodcases, atm, I believe there's only lowprofile cases, at least from kbdfans. Hope this helps :)

[@RamonAlcaide]

Do you know if the gk61 bluetooth version battery will fit in this case? The battery size is L 108mm * W 37mm * H 4mm.

[@hanabi4108]

I believe it's not possible. There is no extra cutout(space) in the bottom case, unluck other cases such as the tofu.

[@electricbill9196]

i honestly thought that mouse pad was your wallpaper

[@imbatize]

Are the hotswap boards compatible with this bamboo case?

[@hanabi4108]

I believe pcb that uses kailh hotswap sockets are not compatible, as the sockets comes in contact with the screw hole of the bottom case. Not sure about using millmax sockets tho.

[@yaboileazyy4476]

Can I use the gk61 to hotswap into this?

[@hanabi4108]

I've never tried it myself but have heard from some people saying that the hotswap sockets would get in the way of the standoffs in the case, making it unusable unless you do some modifications to the case.

[@yaboileazyy4476]

Hanabi ahhh thanks for notifying

[@totallynotaveragelol6748]

im thinking about trying to make a build with that case but dunno what pcb

[@olid8992]

There is a 60% one on kbd fans if u still care

[@lordacez396]

what type of stabs did you use? like screw-in, PCB mounted or plate mounted?

[@hanabi4108]

screw in stabs!

[@elliotwalker694]

did u add foam or anything to dampen the sound?

[@hanabi4108]

Nope! No foam.

[@lilithium0]

will this case fit the GK61?

[@fredlitotoro7042]

Is the pcb hot swappable or did u solder them?

[@EreNyn3]

The pcb used here requires soldering, although there is a hotswappable version as well! Check out the kbdfans site for more information; it’s where most of the parts seem to be from

can i case swap my ducky one 2 mini into this

[@southward_]

Nice build! Im looking to get dsa hana aswell, I love the colors! Did you buy it on pimp my keyboard?

[@hanabi4108]

Thanks! Found this set super cute haha! Got to have it. Yes I got it from pimpmykeyboard!

DragiiniEdits I’m not sure which one it is specifically, but it’s definitely from a game called Maplestory

DragiiniEdits listening to this again, the first one is definitely the intro/theme song that you’ll hear when you login to the game. But I still dunno the second song that starts from 2:33

[@hanabi4108]

@@dragiini1167 Hey there! Apology for the late reply. The first bgm is "El nath: Snowy village" and the second is "Ludibrium: Fairytale" and yes they are indeed from Maplestory :)

[@AJ-lx2pb]

nice but the pcb and backplate is not screwed in?

[@hanabi4108]

It is actually! I only left the middle unscrewed.

[@joostwagelaar8837]

@@hanabi4108 can you explain why? Does it have any advantages?

[@hanabi4108]

@@joostwagelaar8837 I've read that it makes the keys "G" and "H" sound better. This might sound weird since it's just a screw but when I tried it myself with and without the screw, the 2 keys does sound different. Opted to go without screw in the center as it sounds better :)
