Svalboard Alpha Self-Print Kit - PRE-ORDER ONLY - shipping in December 2023

This is a preorder - fully refundable prior to shipment.

Next round will ship in late December 2023.

The ultimate DIY keyboard project for advanced builders.  Forget the iterations of case shapes to fit your fingers -- Svalboard is infinitely adjustable and fits any hand!

Build guide is under development with collaboration from core contributors on the very lively Svalboard Discord!

Kit contents pictured approximately here, +/- a few little things still in process.

You need:

- Mandatory:

• A Prusa MK3S or better printer with a 0.4mm nozzle
• Thick or medium CA Glue (we prefer thick for ease of handling)
• Fine glue applicator tips
• Adjustable parallel pliers (we recommend Knipex Plierswrench 180mm for best results and versatility)
• A small flat blade screwdriver, roughly 4mm wide x 1mm thick
• 3D printing experience.  This is an advanced build, and depending on your choice of filaments and the state of your printer, you may have to get into some moderately deep slicer configuration to get working parts

- Recommended:

• Diamond files for part cleanup
• #2 X-acto knife (we recommend the Kiwi, but anything will do)

Kit includes all the necessary bits (plus some spares):

• 2 MCU PCBAs (pre-loaded with Vial)
• L/R Thumb PCBAs (tested)
• 8 Finger PCBAs (tested)
• 10 150mm FFC cables
• Screws (20x M3x6 socket cap, 20x M3x10 socket cap, 2x M3x12 socket cap, 50x M2 T6 thread-cutting)
• Washers (~50x M3)
• Heatset inserts (20x M3, 4x M5, 2x 1/4-20)
• Rubber feet
• 200 key magnets (enough to make a few fixtures and a few mistakes)
• STLs and 3MF files intended for direct printing on Prusa MK3S
• 2.5mm hex wrench
• T6 Torx bit
