Notes

Please read all of the following notes and make a purchase only if you agree to them.

Common

• You will need to assemble the product, write the firmware, change the keymap, etc. yourself.
• You will need to solder the rotary encoder yourself to install it.
• In the design model, the following points are connected smoothly, but due to manufacturing errors, there may be slight edges.
  
  

Gray, blue, and silver

• Some of the parts that will not be visible when assembled may not have high quality anodizing.
  

RAW

• Some products may have cutting oil or small scratches remaining on the surface.
• Since the surface is not coated, rust and other issues may occur over time.
• We take great care in handling our products, but we cannot guarantee the gloss of the product when it arrives.
