Weird? Definitely. Bad? Not necessarily.

I don't see the advantage, though - what if, say, you discover some flaw 1 month after sending out the bases... Bases will stay somewhere in a drawer, unused, while it will be too late to change them.

okay, but say people pre-order a keyboard, would it then be better to keep the base here till the bottom is also ready? seems like the more logical thing to do

That sentence indicates that you confuse "weird" and "unusual". With that in mind, I totally agree with you.

Seems that Lastucase.com is working to release wooden TOH for Jolla. Would it be interesting to talk with them to learn if they could make the TOHKB v2 base + kb_part entirely from wood using your CAD design?

"For now our product for Jolla is wooden skin, but we are planning to release Other Half -model too."

Lastucase could be also interesting channel partner for the end product as they have reseller network already in place. Maybe they'd license the design from you to reach larger audience?

You might be right or completely wrong. But its weird that its unusual.

I followed the pattern of dirks post, he used 'weird' instead of other words so I just followed suit.

See earlier in the the thread, he is in-fact already planning to work with Lastu.
*UPDATE*
Explained in the video here IIRC...

What's with the lame new captchas before posting, I do hope that's not a permanent thing?
