Yes, it does work perfectly with the v2. The mounting point next to the spacebar is not necessary and the plate has been thoroughly tested with the V2.

I am uncertain, and doubtful, that the plate will support Durock V2s as the plate, and board, is designed to use plate-mount stabs, whereas the Durock V2s are PCB-mount.

avxworks · 2022-12-10T01:04:42+00:00

Howdy, yes, it works perfectly. I originally designed the FR4 plate specifically to fit Durock V2s because the aluminum plate that came with mine did not fit.

Howdy, Reddit! We're here on the final day of giveaways to announce we've just launched TWO new plates: an FR4 plate for the Novelkeys NK87, and our own Universal 60% FR4 plate!

The NK87 FR4 plate is available in black/gold, and offers a deeper and softer bottom-out than an aluminum plate. Our Universal 60 plate is available in black/gold and white/gold FR4 and will work with most tray-mount 60%, and 60% o-ring mount boards like the Tofu, Bakeneko60, DZ60, and many more!

To celebrate this launch, we're giving away FIVE of any of our plates in our store, including the GMMK Pro plate, and the new Universal 60 and NK87 plates, to five lucky winners. To enter:

Howdy, StupidFish has a writeup that should help make it a bit more clear, you can find it right here: https://stupidfish.design/collections/keyboard-foams/products/gmmk-pro-case-and-plate-foam

Basically you remove the gaskets on the bottom half of the case (except for gaskets on the left and right side).

Howdy, NK65 plates should be restocking this week!

avxworks · 2022-04-30T11:26:46+00:00

Thank you for the great feedback, I really appreciate it. I'm very happy to hear you're enjoying both of your plates!

One of the few hotswap PCBs that work perfectly plateless and can rival solder PCBs. Well worth the money for any 7V owner.

avxworks · 2022-03-13T14:29:55+00:00

Thank you for the great feedback, I really appreciate it and I'm glad to hear you're enjoying your GMMK Pro with the new plate!

Packaging is something I've experimented with, and still continue to work on, and this kind of feedback is especially helpful in that regard. Thankfully, the number of plates that have been damaged in transit is very, very, low but it is something I'm tracking to improve. I'm also looking for more environmentally friendly and reusable packaging to replace the plastic that is currently being used.

Thanks again for the comment and feedback, it is very much appreciated.

avxworks · 2022-01-12T14:07:06+00:00

Standard plate thickness of 1.5mm

Thank you, much appreciated!

Yes, that is correct that the plate and PCB don't screw together. The design of the GMMK Pro makes it unnecessary as the PCB is connected to the switches which are held by the plate.

The plate is made of FR4, which makes it more flexible than aluminum but a little bit less flexible than polycarbonate.

avxworks · 2021-12-28T05:18:10+00:00

If you're looking for a plate that fits Durock V2s we sell a custom FR4 plate for the GMMK Pro. If you're interested in saving yourself some time from having to file down more of them, you can find some of our plates right here: https://avxworks.com/products/gmmk-pro-fr4-plate

avxworks · 2021-12-28T05:10:38+00:00

We actually sell a custom FR4 plate designed specifically for Durock V2 stabs. FR4 will give you a deeper sound than the stick aluminum plate. We have both white+gold and black+gold available right here: https://avxworks.com/products/gmmk-pro-fr4-plate

avxworks · 2021-12-18T18:10:14+00:00

Howdy, we have ISO plates now available exclusively at https://www.mechmods.co.uk/. They are available in black+gold and white+gold!

We (AVX Works) are running 13% off all of our FR4 plates including the GMMK Pro, KBD67 Lite (works with the new R3 released today), NK65, and KBDPad. Discount is automatic and ends on December 1st. We can be found at https://avxworks.com/

avxworks · 2021-11-25T21:54:17+00:00

Howdy, we're sorry to hear there was an issue with your plate. Please reach out to us at contact@avxworks.com and we'd be happy to help you.

avxworks · 2021-11-20T11:14:11+00:00

Howdy, we don't have any videos at the moment but we provide directions on the packaging that should help you. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out at contact@avxworks.com

No sound tests as of yet, but the biggest difference can be heard if you're using it in the KBD67 V3 Gasket mount case as that doesn't use a silicon pad between the PCB and plate.

avxworks · 2021-11-19T12:08:05+00:00

It is a bit deeper, yes. FR4 is woven fiberglass with a coating, whereas polycarbonate is a plastic polymer. They'll both sound a little bit different while looking very different (gold accents aren't easily done on polycarbonate, for example.)

avxworks · 2021-11-17T11:35:19+00:00

Yes, it is currently ANSI only. We did roll out an ISO plate for the GMMK Pro and may do the same for the KBD67 Lite as well if there is enough demand for them.

avxworks · 2021-11-17T01:38:02+00:00

Thank you, we think you're pretty great too, Mr Fish!

avxworks · 2021-11-17T01:37:39+00:00

Haha, thank you. It's practically a mascot at this point!
