Have you noticed the flaw in the Shift V2 case?
I recently decided to try adding screw-in stabs to my Shift V2. As this was my first time adding screw-ins, it took me about 45 minutes to get them on the PCB. The next hour was then spent unsuccessfully trying to get the PCB to sit nicely in the top of the case. I started unscrewing some of the stabs, trying to figure out which one was the problem. I did also manage to figure out that it's best practice to have the screws a little loose when you go to pop the PCB in the case. But that only worked for four of the five stabs. The fifth stab, the Num Enter stab, would sit properly. Once I got it narrowed down to that stab, I started looking at the case itself. That's when I found the problem. There is a little post that interferes with the screw-in stab's screw (pictures included; you can see the damage from the screw being mashed into the post). I assume this is a carryover from the V1 case, for which the included PCB did not have holes for board mounted stabs. So now the questions:...

still, very optimistic it will get produced, I've seen kits with 40/100 gotten produced.
There is also 5 nordekit sold in asia proxy, so numbers is 80. With the last few days, it should sell more, possible another 10 or so norde kits, so you should be safe.
The profits from those 300 orders probably make up for the 25 extra Norde kits. Even if they don't from MD's side, they definitely do from GMK's side. This could lead to GMK dropping the price of the extra 25 Norde kits so as to not lose 300 orders from the total bill.
MD might vey well be willing to cancel the rest of your order after it ends if you contact just after it is confirmed that norde isn't to be made. ( don't take my word for it though)
The day someone decides to do a 60% DSA set with nordic ISO layout I will probably throw all my kronor (our currency) at that person and go broke. Happy, but broke.
and hello there swede, dane reporting in, who if it weren't for that damn bamboo case and fancy switches would've stuck to the nordic ISO :)
do you completly skip the nordic/danish keycaps when going ANSI or how do you solve it?
I used to live right next to sweden at Helsingør/Helsingborg :)
I cant really live without the proper layout, guess im too old to change. I recently changes to 60% and that change is still messing it up for me, but I wont return to full size again though.
But I don't know, it's pretty expensive for what is essentially a single novelty key, and it doesn't really fit with the theme of the set. Oh and will it even make the MoQ of 250?
mayby create a separate drop later on after a poll to see if its just us wanting it or if theres more of us?
