These are cool! It's nice to see manufacturer representation on here. I've been thinking of getting a small run of boards made but it's very hard to get info about manufacturers — people like to keep them secret from customers.

A lot of mechanical keyboard parts are basically like games that that are no longer published. It's hard to be mad at people for emulating when the companies don't make the products available.

Unikorns are still getting “published” though. Elaine from Singa specifically said that one manufacturer ran away with the design files from R1 und proceeds to manufacture and sell them, which is not only morally wrong, but also illegal. The pictures in this post are besides the engraving identical to unikorns, which makes them clones of a stolen design, and therefore quite literally illegal.

not really their responsibility, they just manufacture whatever cad is sent to them. shame on the designers, sure, but the files are readily available and commission them often. zamol is just trying to show what materials they offer.

Have a look / ask around at keyboard atelier discord. Information about manus are there to get you started in pins on the right channels. Ppl are generally pre helpful about keyboard design advice as well. Gl.

I might be ignorant here but what is the difference between a bakeneko with a backplate and the korn design here? As far as I know we haven't seen the internal design?

That's not how it works. Making "enough" is huge risk for individual people. The group buy model allows for designers to fund the manufacturing of a keyboard, but if there's a fuck up, that will take time and money, that on some cases can't be made up for with the profits made from the group buy. And so you can imagine what will happen if they decide to make a fuck ton of keyboards. so manufacturing smaller amounts is not unreasonable. It's not fun for everybody, but it's the only viable way of doing it for most designers

Yea I understand how group buys work. When I say making enough I’m not talking about all at once. I take issue with the fact that they don’t usually continue with more rounds of group buys. If you miss the one group buy or you don’t get one of the limited available boards then you’re screwed.

It’s different if a company is actively making a product and clones take sales away from the original designer. But if the original designer is not going to make anymore then they aren’t losing money. Legal or not I’m fine with cloning in that situation because there’s no other way to get one.

Since when unikorn r1 come with a jst cable and daughter board? Thats not even how the daughter board is mounted on even the r2 as you can clearly see from the images you yourself mentioned. Some one has tried to recreate the design but calming its the original stolen files is incorrect

Edit: also a lot of pictures you mentioned are simply the open source bakeneko. Smh
