Updated our blog post to reflect this morning's update that we stand at a 145% tariff on goods imported from China, not 125%. shop.keyboard.io/blogs/news/a... At this point, I'm considering writing tooling to automate future updates to this post.

Now that sales are closed and Jesse's back from China, we've started the purchasing for the Box of Crap. Since we've never done the purchasing remotely before, we're taking things a little bit slowly, only buying a few things at a time and having them shipped to our fulfillment center.

The second item, which, by all rights ought to be the most expensive item in the box but costs about the same as a cable we're including, got ordered just now and has a lead time of 2-3 days.

The first item, which was one of Jesse's holy grail items turns out to have an even better story than we'd hoped. We paid for it last night and expect it to be shipped to the fulfillment center on Sunday.

Single character legends and two character legends will be in Gorton Perfected Regular set at what Illustrator calls '5mm' tall. Legends with words will be set in Gorton Perfected Regular at what illustrator calls '3mm' tall. Do we wish we'd done the test with font sizes in points? Absolutely.

We're at the injection molding factory today for the 'T1' injection mold test. We're also putting together some options for just how transparent to make the plastic enclosure.

I have had a truly terrible past two weeks (wouldn’t be surprised if I have some grey under my purple hair soon), but TODAY my box of crap arrived from @keyboard.io and I couldn’t be happier.🤩😍🧙‍♀️ (Murphy cat for scale)

Keyboardio makes great keyboards (the one I have is the nicest feeling keyboard I've ever typed on), and they seem like all around decent people.
