To the Moon, or Switzerland

2 colors are available for Cheeseboard, either the Cheese Yellow (e-coating) or the Moon Grey (anodized) variants, we are not really sure if the moon is made of cheese or not, so both versions are being made to satisfy all sorts of conspiracies.
With your Cheeseboard you can get a POM or Brass plate, this is up to you! POM will provide a more flexible typing profile and Brass will look pretty while providing stellar acoustics. The POM is white so be aware that you may be able to see it through the keycap gaps.

A Marvel of Machining

This is by far the most complicated Keyboard we have ever had to machine. Meticulously placed cavities in the top case need to be carefully cut by a 5 - Axis CNC Machine. Every top case is so incredible complex that is takes over 5 hours to finish with an extra step where edges are smoothed out to make it comfortable to type on. (for reference our mega takes only approx 35minutes). From every angle your keyboard exposes new shapes that will amaze you every day.

Isolated Bottom Case

The Swiss comes with custom poron gaskets to isolate the bottom from the top case resulting in no case ping and a optimized sound signature.
The ai03 daughterboard features a USB-C Port and is center mounted.
