Was curious what the weight of the board is?If you choose the brass plate kit, the weight is around 1.9kg with no switches and keycaps. Fully built kit is around 2.2kg.

And also, how the GB spots will work? First 100 people to fill up the form gets a spot or will be some kind of raffle?

Rather have a raffle, some use bots so we have little change of winningIts only solder, and bot probably have no chance of filling the form since it is never reveal anywhere else first

Where does this ship from? If I buy from Germany, do i need to pay customs tax again?I believe KCK will ship from UK so it should be customs free assuming GB will meet estimated shipping date (before Brexit).

I think it was mainly because it was done via Google Forms. A lot of other FCFS GB is done via the shopify platform which has bots that creates unfair advantages. Either ways, got myself one although now not sure if I should change from Blue Grey to Aquamarine :-\

Not sure why you think Google forms can't be botted. It's a huge issue for Google forms as well. It's the reason a large number of artisan raffles have some trivia or bot style question in it. https://support.google.com/docs/thread/56038733?hl=enwow, I thought I could join this GB later today, guess I was wrong haha

So to those who hadn't paid the invoice yet but had secured a keyboard will they have to once again fight for a spot in the GB when you re-open or are they still secured for a keyboard from your first run? Because I was just about to pay today but then checked the GB page once I saw it wasn't giving me the option to pay and found out you had issues with square. I hope everything turns out alright on your end though, really hoping to get this keyboard, very good looking and would be my first keyboard :) thanks again for your hard work!
You will still get to keep the spot :)

Can newcomers still join in on the GB? 🙁Going from above that all current spots are secured and GB quantity was exhausted I think you are out of luck.
Post by: KCK on Mon, 17 August 2020, 07:51:20

Yeah, i'm going to say there's going to be around 50 units available to purchase for newcomers. I doubt everyone that filled out the GB form will actually end up purchasing the keyboard.

I'm sure the select few that got in in time wouldn't have felt the frustration.
Post by: LASERman Projects on Tue, 22 September 2020, 04:45:26
nope no chance i tried my hardest to nab a spot in many ways and with no availNo offense but you are wrong and this needs clarifying:
I'm sure the select few that got in in time wouldn't have felt the frustration.
1- Original GB was run by KCK himself through Google form and there was plenty of time to get on for those who followed IC - you have obviously missed that entirely
2- Due to payment processor issue the GB was not completed.
3- Mechboard processed GB payments for those who secured spots in original GB through password protected checkout - you obviously wasn't there cos we had 24hrs to do so.
4- There was a short window (maybe even 4 min as you are claiming) but it was ONLY for EXTRAS left for grabs after some original GB members gave up.
Everything I am writing above was clearly announced through multiple channels.
Therefore it is very unfair to claim the whole GB ended in 4min and cry now.
You can only be frustrated for not paying attention.
Post by: OnNitrous on Tue, 22 September 2020, 05:07:49
the window to purchase defiantly was 4 mins long.
including the fact i was active in the discord At the time.. i just missed out is all
Post by: LASERman Projects on Tue, 22 September 2020, 05:23:25
well to clairfy i wasn't saying the whole GB lasted 4 min that just absurd.Thanks for admitting the fact you missed this, but why you keep bragging INTENTIONALLY MISLEADING from the fact it was NOT MAIN GB purchase window.
the window to purchase defiantly was 4 mins long.
including the fact i was active in the discord At the time.. i just missed out is all
What matter is that clearly YOU WERE NOT on Discord during MAIN GB two weeks prior to what are you talking about when the window was comfortable long and for over TWO HOURS.
Do not bother with another reply - I have no time for this kind of altitude and you have earned ignore from me. Goodbye.

for the average jo like myself that work 12 to 14 hr. to find a GB on a forum such as this then join a Dc then wait to release the website to then check the discord to get a private code is a hassle.
I missed the main ordering you are talking about. So I guess my experience must have been for the second part of the GB for the people that missed out.
anyways I'm sharing my experience. SO for my part it defiantly lasted 4 mins.
take from this what you will.

good day or night
and enjoy your keeb's

Just to be clear, I did cancel my order so no KY-01 for me, but for you, worry not since KCK has already confirm he has something else cooking up

Another UK based board KZ75 (https://www.reddit.com/r/MechanicalKeyboards/comments/i2p0kz/ic_kz75_75_keyboard/).
KBDFans will drop Bella (https://kbdfans.com/products/bella?_pos=2&_sid=2d061e035&_ss=r)by the end of the month.
BOX 75 (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=108118.0) is quite interesting project.
And of course The Evolv 75% (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=104531.0;topicseen).
Unfortunately they all require keeping close eye on Discord etc. to catch the train.

!!! YOU ARE DOING IT ON YOUR OWN RISK WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY WHATSOEVER !!!
How to flash the VIA firmware onto KY-01:
- Download the hex file (https://drive.google.com/file/d/1k4glGypW68kvxxaBDs3_e2NJQUFddw9m/view)
(Alternatively, you can build the firmware yourself with the source code (https://github.com/mcoirault/qmk_firmware/tree/ky01/keyboards/ky01/keymaps/via) used for this build) - Get the QMK Toolbox (https://github.com/qmk/qmk_toolbox/releases) up and running
- Short the Reset pins to put your PCB in boot mode (short, then plug the USB, then remove the short). The pins are located near the Esc switch, shown here (https://i.imgur.com/IGnFyqe.jpg)
(You can also hold both Shift keys and B while the keyboard is connected to go into boot mode. This might be easier if the keyboard is already assembled) - The keyboard should show up in the QMK Toolbox (yellow line "Atmel DFU device connected")
- Open the "ky01_via.hex" firmware you just downloaded, and click Flash.
- That should write the firmware on the PCB and automatically exit the boot mode (yellow line saying: disconnected..)
(if you have trouble flashing, make sure you have the proper driver installed. See this Discord conversation (https://discord.com/channels/723903210372333638/723905804151029850/815276437652111401) for more details.)
How to use VIA to set your layers/keymap on KY-01:
- Get the VIA (https://github.com/the-via/releases/releases/latest) up and running
- Enable "Show design tab" in the Settings
- Load this json file (https://drive.google.com/file/d/1iC0SdQ1sLkStmUxha20tyEko_6zVepp2/view) In the Design tab
- Now you should see KY-01 keyboard map in the Configure tab
(To learn how to use VIA watch YT turtorial (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=78zVepszCmE)) - Have fun setting up your keymaps!
- Keep in mind that, until the KY01 is fully supported in VIA, you will have to load the json file every time you want to edit your keymap
Hopefully these steps are clear (maybe a bit too verbose for those already familiar with flashing).
We are happy to help you through KY-01 Discord channel (https://discord.gg/T7ayHZ4t) if someone is struggling.
All credits to Yornn for creating this solution - I am just posting his (edited) info here.

- Open the "ky01_via.hex" firmware you just downloaded, and click Flash.
- That should write the firmware on the PCB and automatically exit the boot mode (yellow line saying: disconnected..)
(if you have trouble flashing, make sure you have the proper driver installed. See this Discord conversation (https://discord.com/channels/723903210372333638/723905804151029850/815276437652111401) for more details.)
How to use VIA to set your layers/keymap on KY-01:
- Get the VIA (https://github.com/the-via/releases/releases/latest) up and running
- Enable "Show design tab" in the Settings
- Load this json file (https://drive.google.com/file/d/1iC0SdQ1sLkStmUxha20tyEko_6zVepp2/view) In the Design tab
- Now you should see KY-01 keyboard map in the Configure tab
(To learn how to use VIA watch YT turtorial (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=78zVepszCmE))- Have fun setting up your keymaps!
- Keep in mind that, until the KY01 is fully supported in VIA, you will have to load the json file every time you want to edit your keymap
Hopefully these steps are clear (maybe a bit too verbose for those already familiar with flashing).
We are happy to help you through KY-01 Discord channel (https://discord.gg/T7ayHZ4t) if someone is struggling.
