Designed by Sho, the S60 is a custom aluminum case designed to work with HHKB Pro 2 and HHKB Pro 2 Type-S internals. It is also compatible with third-party controllers as well as BLE modules such as from YDKB (different material plate will be required for better signal reception - future release)

A Stainless Steel plate is offered for a stiff and solid typing feel, with an option for an Aluminum plate if a less stiff typing experience is desired. Both options are still stiffer when compared to the stock HHKB Pro 2, providing a unique overall typing feel and sound.

Other plate materials like brass, FR4 and polycarbonate will be released in the future separately.

The front lip is made to be 17.5mm, the same as the HHKB to preserve the comfortable original height of a HHKB. The USB cutout is also made to be compatible with both Mini-USB and Type-C.

There are two materials options available, 6063 Aluminum and Polycarbonate. Both are produced using high-precision CNC.

This DOES NOT feature an integrated plate, you will need to salvage housings from boards such as Realforce R1/R2, Novatouch etc or purchase Deskeys Housings in order to complete the build.

Images are NOT renders, they are a pre-production prototype, production units will be produced and QC-ed at a high standard.

Package Includes:

• Top and Bottom Case
• Stainless Steel/Aluminum Plate
• Screws
• Feet
• Carrying Case

To complete the build, you will need:

• HHKB Pro 2/Pro 2 Type-S PCB and daughterboard (and compatible third-party daughterboards)
• Domes, Springs and Sliders
• Topre Housings and stabilizers from other boards such as Realforce R1/R2, Novatouch etc or 3rd party housings like Deskeys Housings
