The angled parts on the weight along with the faux rivets simulate a spaceship. The angles and shapes cut into the side profile and LED bars further lean into the futuristic aesthetic\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0252\/3958\/4834\/files\/DSF4125-2.jpg?v=1789472853\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMounting Design\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLeafspring Gasket - I wanted to try something new with the internals of the Deacon that bring some of the crazy aesthetics of the outside to the mounting as well. 11 leafspring arms are fully isolated from the case by 2 press fit spheres on either side. Together this creates a clean sound with a nice bounce to the whole assembly rather than isolated flex.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0252\/3958\/4834\/files\/Deacon_Gasket_Plate-01.webp?v=1789472921\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTop - While the leafspring gaskets are fun and work as intended I wanted to also provide a mounting that was more familiar, especially with the release of my first solo TKL project. I put a small spin on the classic top mount by seperating the nav and main clusters. I went with more, smaller mounting points with relief cuts at each point. I think that this creates a more balanced feel across the keyboard and the relief cuts help to minimize vibration transfer to the case, preventing a flat or resonant sound.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0252\/3958\/4834\/files\/deacon_top_plate-01.webp?v=1789472977\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCase Specifications:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterials: 6063 Aluminum, Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLayout: F12 TKL - WK, WKL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTyping Angles: Main - 7 Degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFront Height: 17.5 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEKH: 22.40 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 2.3 Kg Unbuilt\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMounting: Leafspring Gasket, Top\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePCB Specifications:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: Black FR4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThickness: 1.6mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoldermask Color: Gray\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSilkscreen Color: White\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnectivity: JST to Unified Daughterboard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCustomizability: VIA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: Solderable and Hotswap\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigner: Gondolindrim\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSolder Compatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0252\/3958\/4834\/files\/keyboard-layout_30.webp?v=1789473049\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHotswap Compatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0252\/3958\/4834\/files\/keyboard-layout_31.webp?v=1789473146\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColourways:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeon\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0252\/3958\/4834\/files\/DSF4145-2.jpg?v=1789548103\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMeteorite\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0252\/3958\/4834\/files\/DSF4146.jpg?v=1789548122\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAged\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0252\/3958\/4834\/files\/DSF4147.jpg?v=1789548142\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKit Contents:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e1x Aluminum Top Case\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e1x Aluminum Bottom Case\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e1x Stainless Steel Through Weight\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e1x Stainless Steel DB Cover\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e1x Aluminum Leafspring Plate\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e1x Main Plate (Material of Choice)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e1x PCB (Solder or Hotswap)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e1x S2 Daughterboard and JST to JST cable\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e1x Carrying Case and Microfiber Pouch\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNecessary Hardware\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDisclaimers\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eKindly note that the images are of 3D renders and are for illustration purposes only.
