What We Do
Mechlovin' doesn't have a cool and inspiring backstory, nor does it need one. We're simply a bunch of mech enthusiasts who happen to possess suitable sets of expertise and skills to offer value-adding products and services to this wonderful community.
Our work currently focuses on two main parts: doing PCB design & production commissions and running compatible PCB & Plate group buys. With regards to the former, we're lucky to have been able to work with extremely talented keyboard designers on their exciting projects, listed below:

A big chunk of our workload is dedicated to offering compatible PCB & Plate solutions to existing boards on the market. Many custom keyboard owners find themselves in awkward situations where the bundled PCBs & Plates are not available after the group buys complete, which makes replacement or swapping builds very difficult. So, the premise is simple: making high-quality, easily programmable compatible PCBs, along with Switch Plates in different materials to keep the building game alive! It's truly a win-win situation, from which we derive great pleasure and motivation. Here's a list of our past group buys:
- Mechlovin' Infinity 87.5 (F12 & F13 TKL PCB)
- Mechlovin' Olly (Duck Jetfire and Black Bird compatible)
- Mechlovin Rouge (OTD compatible)
- Mechlovin' Rogue (UTD compatible)
- Mechlovin' 9 (Kyuu compatible) Round 2
- Mechlovin' 9 (Kyuu compatible)
- Mechlovin' Kanu (Canoe V1 compatible)
- Infinity 87 (A87 form factor)
- Adelais (TGR Alice layout) Round 2
- Adelais (TGR Alice layout) Round 1
- Hannah 910 Rev. 3 & Infinity 88 (formerly Infinity CE)
- Hannah 910 Rev. 2 & Infinity CE (Jane V2 CE compatible)
- Hannah 910 Rev. 1 Otani Edition
- Hannah 910 Rev. 1 (TGR 910 compatible)
From the later half of 2021, we decided to move towards the in-stock model for compatible PCBs of popular layouts, evidently in the healthy lineup currently available on our storefront. Group buys will still be run, but more sparingly, and only for boards/layouts whose demand is difficult to gauge. We believe this revised direction offers much more benefits to our customers.
