Epoch 87 - It's Almost There

The Epoch 87 is by a newer designer / brand and it's fun! However, despite some fun ideas and playful design choices, it's not quite up to snuff with some of the more modern solutions for the internals of the keyboard. I've messaged the brand and offered some criticism and hopefully some changes get made, because it is a fun looking board!

Its meant to look like one of those Wyse terminal boards but with a modern take on it. Looks good, just wish they had a gray color like most Wyse boards.

it does!

That ribbon cable connector being right on the gasket is scaring me haha

[@kapanogaga]

@alexotos do you mind telling me the brand of the light cable you are using for the keyboard that you are using ?

[@joshwill7504]

Personally ribbon cables are a pain in the arse, they always are sooo difficult to like connect to the pcb im ngl, at least in my personal opinion.
