Awesome work Matthew!!! Once again coming through with more gorgeous clean aesthetics. I'm here for it! Really wanna get my hands on one of these Encore, but equally as bummed to see that the ones with copper will be sooooo much more expensive

I was refreshing the page to get an Encore, but apparently the cart was messing up somehow and by the time I was able to fix the issue it was sold out. Sad days.

is all versions of this board starting at 279 or is the copper bottom versions more expensive? how much is the one alex is building?
@Juramate 2 ай бұрын
The 279 version only comes in black with an option of oak or walnut. The one Alex is showing off with the full copper bottom that comes in green/walnut or white/oak is 529.
@Kushanody 2 ай бұрын
Im confused, will the first drop say for a copper variant be 25 or 50? I know it says 50 for green copper but is that total or per drop.
@MatthewEncina 2 ай бұрын
The total amount (500 units of all colors combined) are split evenly between drops.

I had to laugh at the "more affordable" stabilizers comment cause we'll drop 200-800+ on a board, another hundred (or two) on keycaps, another $30+ on switches, and then fret about whether to pay $12 for stabs or splurge on the $18 ones 🤣🤣🤣
@alexotos 2 ай бұрын
Having used 10 dollar stabs and 25 dollar stabs I can confidently say I never notice a difference on daily use if they are properly tuned. Also I think it’s good to remember people do want to participate in the hobby and not everyone can afford 20 dollar stabs and ever dollar counts.
@leftcoastfunk 2 ай бұрын
@@alexotos yeah no that's totally fair! I wasn't necessarily making commentary about the overall accessability of the hobby as a whole, just had a quick chuckle to myself when you said it. I've also had "cheap" stabs work just as well or better with minimal tuning than some more expensive ones (gmk qmx) Overall I love that the hobby has such a broad array of options these days, and much higher quality on the "budget" end of things than we used to get Cheers 🍻
