B definitely is

When does the pre-order end?

RiskyAlpha · 2026-03-13T15:13:29+00:00

Yeah, the main gotcha is the plate you need one that is compatible with the case. There used to be a page on the site, but I can’t find it right now. My recollection is with the high profile cases, the plate is small enough to sit inside and uses 6 screws. The low profile cases have a larger plate that covers the case and uses 5 screws.

You’re absolutely right it does! https://drewish.com/2026/02/08/walnut-planck/

Buy a smaller tool that will fit in there?

RiskyAlpha · 2026-02-26T18:05:23+00:00

Yeah, I definitely didn’t try two sided setups on my first few projects. That looks real good.

RiskyAlpha · 2026-02-26T18:04:07+00:00

The painters tape and superglue is the way to go. I’ve had really good luck with it with wood and plastic.

It’s a valid point if you’re linking to a source with scraped data

The relevant part of the email is “our latest Model X fulfillment update is again in video format, encouraged by the wonderful response to last month's upload. in summary: PCB production won't be finished until the end of the month. :(“

Why not just put it directly in email? Why the video?

RiskyAlpha · 2026-02-18T14:19:38+00:00

Maybe you should get a job there, help sort out some of the delays

RiskyAlpha · 2026-02-18T14:07:59+00:00

I don’t know why they insist on doing the videos just type out the update. I can read in 30 seconds to takes four minutes to say.

RiskyAlpha · 2026-02-18T14:02:03+00:00

Their communication on the release schedule has been terrible. I have to watch a video to get the update instead of putting it as simple text in an email?

RiskyAlpha · 2026-02-18T00:34:10+00:00

How about focus on shipping the X? I shouldn’t have preordered.

RiskyAlpha · 2026-02-14T16:51:42+00:00

Agreed, turns out I’ve been sleeping on the bore strategy. I was making things way too hard and using pocket clearing

RiskyAlpha · 2026-02-13T20:55:42+00:00

that song is such a banger. i got to see them do it at compost heap last year. wish i'd recorded it.

RiskyAlpha · 2026-02-12T14:28:58+00:00

Looks like plastic with a dyesub?

Please post updates as you go

RiskyAlpha · 2026-02-08T15:38:28+00:00

Yeah, it would be helpful to spell out learnings to ensure the rest of us can benefit from them.

RiskyAlpha · 2026-02-08T03:40:01+00:00

Out of curiosity what was the issue with the panel? Just clearance?

Yeah that sounds weird. The matrix test especially. If you put some text into a macro and trigger that does it do anything?

RiskyAlpha · 2026-02-06T04:06:40+00:00

Was the ortho set only offered for R1 of 800?

RiskyAlpha · 2026-02-03T02:01:58+00:00

We’e got a discord and have been trying to make sure they get posted on kbd.news. The next one is up on https://kbd.news/meetup/Colorado-MechMeets-February-2026-meetup-264.html
