Heh.

I've gone for evenly spaced for alphas and then on the edge. I haven't done my research yet, but from what I've experienced in 268 and using other keyboards etc, I think the focus on the alphas makes the most sense.

Yes - that is the plate. Depends what you need for layout.

I'm probably looking at the brass plate and going to put some lacquer on it to prevent tarnish.

Correct, you need Case + PCB, and the options below that are all plates to pick from, and you only need one of that.

5mm brass 220 when?!

lol

not enough demand but I can always reassess the meme

I'm assuming 6061? Or is 7075 an option?

6061. If people that enter and pay want to try 7075, I'll organize afterwards. Would rather people join because of the design than material.

Well dang, first GB gonna put 850$ in...

 :cool:

Yup, it's all frosted.

Pardon me for not quite understanding, but does this mean that I only need one of the options below the PCB, bare minimum?

You will need the case (top/weight/bottom), 1 PCB, and 1 plate minimum. You can get extra PCBs and extra plates if you want.
Title: Re: [GB] Noxary 280 & 220
Post by: xondat on Thu, 17 May 2018, 05:54:56
Also just so it's noted/clarified:

If demand for 220 exceeds slots available, I will make the normal one 220 (& make it unlimited/limited to 100), and there will be a few 220 S available.

For now, the only difference is numbering, but the weight may change on 220 S to separate it.

Also thanks for all the interest, means a lot :-*

There won't be color samples, please refer to the Pantone's.

If you're disappointed with what's available, you could always ask for unfinished and finish it yourself :)

It means you get to use no plate on the alphas keys. So it's PCB mounted instead of plate mounted, which considerably changes the feeling. It's preference -- I'd give it a try though.

To add to this, it gives (ime) some added springy feedback to the keypresses -- a bit more tactile feedback and you can feel keypresses made on one side of the board with your hand on the other side of the board. For tactile switches I think this enhances the feedback of each keypress and makes the whole thing feel more lively. For linears it makes bottoming out far less harsh without being mushy, it retains the crisp feeling of linears, however each press is less isolated and "pure". With light linears (62g or less) and a poly or partial poly plate on linears bottoming out feels almost like not bottoming out on something with heavy tactility like Clears or buckling spring.

The sound is also much higher pitched, especially with ABS caps.

Interesting. I really like the deep bassy sounds of vint blacks though I'm not really sure what kind of plate would contribute to that kind of sound. Would brass give it a deeper sound or is that higher pitched as well? At any rate, I'll probably pick up a few extra plates and pcbs granted it's an option.

I'd imagine that polycarbonate plates maintain a deeper, lower pitched sound but people with more experience can hopefully answer this for you.

In my experience carbon fiber gives the most bassy "thock", thin poly is very clicky. Thick 5mm poly might be deeper? I think that might be your best bet, but I think it also depends a bit on the cavity under the plate in the case and the case material? Tough to get a deep thock with a thick alu and brass case I'd think.

Alu would be my second choice, brass reduces sound ime.

Stupid question but are the stabilizers required for this 4x2u and 1x7u PCB mounted?

For Fixed on 280 you'll need that, yes.

hey Xondat, as the designer of this keyboard(s)- which layout,color,plate options would you choose? They are all great choices but I'm always interested in what the designer's personal pick would be.

Blue Gray case, Fixed Layout on Partial Polycarbonate :p

This combination goes back to my favorite ever keyboard found here (http://www.mechblog.org/post/112315513039/otd-3562-switches-mx-clear-62g-gold-spring).
That board / those pics have been a personal favourite of mine for a long while.. we have good taste ;)

The proto’s turned out spectacularly, the reduced height at the front was a genius idea.

My mannn, 65 for the poly partial :’(  (I know you had issues pricing these or even getting enough interest, but I’m glad they’re an option!)

can you buy 220 without buying 280?

Also just so it's noted/clarified:

If demand for 220 exceeds slots available, I will make the normal one 220 (& make it unlimited/limited to 100), and there will be a few 220 S available.

For now, the only difference is numbering, but the weight may change on 220 S to separate it.

Also thanks for all the interest, means a lot :-*

Yep. Absolutely. Only thing you'll need to solder is switches (and in switch LEDs if you desire).

Once he's contacted everyone (he said chat, so again i assume discord) then you will be able to make changes. The payment window is gonna be several weeks though the sooner everyone pays the better.

Anyway, join discord: https://discord.gg/N2aNvqN

Gotta request roles in the role request channel.

So like “Request 280” or “Request 220” etc in that channel. Then xondat will add the roles and you will get access to the relevant channels and stuff.

I guess if it's closed today you can't ask for roles, because it says I don't permission to post there. Never tried discord, not even sure what it is. A website-based version of like what Teamspeak used to be with private servers?

Hi all, please see the following two forms to confirm the options you chose.

Fill this out EXACTLY as you'd want to be invoiced.

I will get the rest of the typing videos up tomorrow, so if you're waiting on these before truly deciding what you want, please do not fill the form out.

If you have already made your mind up, please fill the forms out ASAP. Invoicing will begin tomorrow.

Thank you to those that answered whilst I had a short break, and also thanks for your patience <3

It's better and easier (for both parties) to send him a DM on discord. Join his server if you haven't already. Going to noxary.co will give you an invite to the server.

Going to start sending invoices now :p

Here is the typing video for 5mm brass:


Overall, I think my PREFERENCE lies with Polycarbonate.

But trying to focus on the plates, if you want the weight, and the focus to lie with the switches, get brass. If you want aesthetic (imo), and want the overall experience to be better, get polycaronbate. I say overall experience as I'm not using optimal switches. I think with modded switches (to their best), you feel the switch more with 5mm brass, but you take away any additional feeling the board will give (which isn't a bad thing, it's just how it is).

It's very hard to compare them as I haven't been able to use them identically side by side, and I've only been dummy typing on them. If you're unsure, stick with what you think is best. If you fundamentally prefer one material over another, get that one. The plate just enhances the mechanics of that material (if that makes sense).

:)) :))

This is just to finalize your options. Nothing can be changed after this.

Please fill that out ASAP so I can be done with invoicing.

Universal refers to covering the most common key layouts (ISO, ANSI, Winkeyless and standard TKL, stepped and non-stepped capslock, split right shift and split backspace). AFAIK this board is MX only.

It's been quiet here due to not much movement. Still on track for the shipping dates.

Most of it was getting everything paid for and confirming details.

After this, I wanted to wait on anodizing samples before moving forward. I now have these, so 280/220 will enter manufacturing once X60 R is shipped to me (as these are being produced with the same anodizing color).

Harsh/direct sunlight:

X60 R will not use the Olive color, however this color will be changed and I'll receive another sample as I'm not happy with it.

The dark gray will change from Pantone 8402 C to 8401 C as it's too dark.

Everything else will stay the same.

Thanks.

yeah me too....problem is that while that crimson is undoubtedly beautiful, there are other gb's that offer red but I can't really think of any other gb that is offering blue-grey.

Hi,

A lot of the background chatter on this buy has been on my Discord server. I've now closed the group buy channels for this buy, and all discussion can be here.

The reasoning: This thread (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=96596) was posted -- the intent seems to be to make group buy issues public. I addressed the images here (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=96596.msg2637473#msg2637473).

None of these issues will be present with this buy, as all have been resolved with the factory.

I want to apologize for how careless this may look. I will continue to do my best, and from now on, be completely transparent with the kits.

Thanks, Anthony.

Here is the second prototype.. I was testing new internal things, so I played around with the outside. Please note the production version will not look like this (but thought people would want to see it so ye).


Regarding timeline, a few things have to be done.

I will be allowing config adjustments, please fill this form out:

https://goo.gl/forms/kSyTqP3xfgHBB3F42

YOU DO NOT NEED TO FILL THIS IN IF YOU AREN'T CHANGING ANYTHING.

I will leave this open for 1 week (closing 23:59 BST 9/18). After this, I'll submit the order.

The obvious thing here is that the keyboards won't be machined, blasted, anodized, shipped to me, QCd, then shipped to you by the end of the month. I'll have an updated timeline when I know how long it'll take to manufacture.


I probably forgot some aspect that needs updating, so lmk if so.

The green looks a lot better.  I think I’ve had more of an army green in mind though so I’ll have to think on it.  Any chance of photos with that green sample next to some GMK caps.  Maybe muted w green pink accents, 9009 with accents, Camping, Royal Alpha (I know it’s olive and not green but it would help me gauge the color better.

Dunno when you updated the spreadsheet (or if you have at all), but I answered the form and changed color to Crimson red 2 days ago (?) but it is still Blue gray on the spreadsheet, would be appreciated if you could tell me if you haven't had time to update the spreadsheet<3

Still open because people drop out, probably able to pick a spot up, although I haven't checked the forms in a while.

Been working on it, but having some irl problems right now which is taking a lot of time/mental space. I want to have these in production by the end of the month so will update then.

Did you really just say "still waiting", when you've been taking up to a week+ to respond to people's issues or flat out ignore them, and only just yesterday replied to me?

Furthermore, you only replied to tell me to message you on Discord. What's wrong with using geekhack? I'm really not a fan of Discord and I'd prefer keeping GH GB related issues on geekhack.

Thought I’d ping here just so you’re aware.

Well considering you’ve blocked me on Discord which means I can no longer access our chat history where you bought many of the parts through, it’s necessary in this case. I’ll await your response on there.

I haven’t blocked anyone - I only left your Discord server and we don’t have any mutual servers (again, I don’t really like using Discord). The only thing in our PM history is me asking to change plates.

All I’ve asked is to drop me out as well before manufacturing starts. I’ve specified the invoice numbers I paid, and the dates/amounts I paid, totalling to about $1.2k. You refunded 2 other users I know of last Thursday.

Per an update in X60 R, I think it's important to clarify.

Bad news inc.

I got the hex keys and was testing the threads out. M2 screws do not fit into the bottom pieces. I asked my contact and he said "The holes are M2 threaded holes, the loose problem must be caused by several times anodizing".

This applies to all bottom pieces unfortunately. I'll be sending them back and they'll make new replacements.

As a general statement, I won't be using this factory again, although I think that goes without saying.

The factory used for X60 R is not the same one being used for 280 & 220.

I cannot refund and then wait for people to potentially pay unfortunately - I simply do not have the funds to do this. If you let me know when it's paid, then it decreases the time it takes for me to refund. Thanks.

Main reason would be comfort. I'm not going anywhere, and I will deliver this, but I can totally understand someone wanting to be in the 6 month period rather than outside.

For my end, I cannot refund the fees after the 6 months is up, PayPal just eats it. So if I need to refund something on the original transaction, we aren't losing anything.

Only real downside unfortunately. I know a couple people outside of the US have USD wallets on PayPal and use that for purchasing, that way exchange rates don't screw them over.

The only thing that burned me a bit is that PayPal refunded one of my invoices to an old CC that was closed in the interim.  That's a PP thing though, as they always refund to the original method of payment.  Hopefully the money will "bounce" back to my PP account in a few days.

Where are we on this in terms of production?

I think the brass parts will finish first, followed by the polycarbonate parts, followed by the aluminum cases. Anodized parts last as it's the most important, they will be like this quality/finish wise:

Also the wrist rests arrived, so I will be sending them out shortly once I send shipping invoices and those are paid.

Sorry the pictures are rotated. Also the 280 pictured there isn't assembled, and is a very old prototype.

I think I have a couple left over but will sell them after.

Eh something like that. I made the mistake with the timeline of course, and I didn't really foresee switching factories for higher quality (see T60 (https://imgur.com/a/3866usb), as those are the first shipped units from this one) - but it's something I'll stand by now & at the end.

what do you think is the biggest risk to the schedule (i.e anodization, quality inspection, etc..), it's clear that there is no firm timeline on this GB meaning you definitely see uncertainty with your vendor.

this will help us prepare for the chance of further slips

How far are they along, did they CNC the cases or did they serialize production and basically that means X60R will need to be fully complete before 280 starts?

I'll ask for roughly where they're at. Some parts began before X60 R, but some are after, such as the aluminum parts so we can make sure the quality is as high as possible. You can't really get sandblasted brass wrong vs anodizing quality :p

Eh kinda. X60 R end user feedback will be very helpful, although I can guess what it is pretty easily.

It's a combination of a lot of things really. There's way over 1000 parts for this buy as a whole, which is tricky to organize, especially when all original plans go out the window.

I wish I could say, hey they'll all be done manufacturing in 3 weeks, but unfortunately sentences like that aren't realistic when a lot of stuff relies on humans not making errors amongst other things. The only real straightforward thing with group buys is the PCBs, since it's very "it either works or it doesn't" vs quality of an aluminum part and seeing how it reflects light in different angles etc.

As a blue gray case, mine lost the colour matching lottery; the bottom piece is more blue and the top is more gray. Doesn't bother me though; I just think of it as giving the board personality :))
Hi Xondat, is this the same factory that is doing the blue-gray ano for the 280? Are we likely to have the same color matching issues with blue-gray? thanks

Hey, it is, however they've told me the color matching has been significantly improved. I'll also be getting production samples before approving shipping them all to me to make sure this won't happen again.

Post by: xondat on Tue, 30 April 2019, 20:56:02
Was hoping to have good news but due to International Workers Day I'll get the update on the 5th or so.


Here's the basis though:

Previous colors that had no color matching issues between the two case pieces will ship first - Black, Crimson Red, Pink, and Silver. The Ultra Violet/Black and Ultra Violet/Pink kits will also ship since there wouldn't be a matching issue.

Here are some images of those colors:

Can't find a picture of the black, sorry.

(https://i.imgur.com/8Xjy16P.png)

(http://i.imgur.com/lwduJ3S.jpg)

(https://i.imgur.com/dHGAobl.jpg)


I've also opted for the 3 Olive kits to come too. I won't be revisiting this color, and don't want to produce anything in it, so there is no point getting it in the second batch if the color matching might be off then too. There has always been a push on color matching, so hopefully these turn out well.


This means Blue Gray, Dark Gray, and Ultra Violet will ship at a later, currently unknown date. I do not want to deliver cases that don't match after all this time. I'll be ordering some other projects with these colors to make sure color matching is as good as possible before finally delivering this. I would rather experiment with newer stuff that has less emotion etc. into those projects than this which has gone on for a long time.

I received a good sample of Dark Gray, please compare to the previous effort.

Older case - X60 R

(https://i.imgur.com/hldHfjn.jpg)

Newer sample - 268.2 Aluminum

(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/393396388282761219/572758725589205004/image0.jpg)

The anodizing supplier said the X60 R was within tolerances, but I made it clear it wasn't near enough, and it seems like they've improved, but it is a one off and I'd like to test further.

Blue Gray and Ultra Violet are self explanatory and require more testing.

(https://i.imgur.com/udUPBXZ.jpg)

(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/438429095303315456/560664376231591936/image0.jpg)

Ultra Violet looks fairly close there, but it was worse in person and I wouldn't be comfortable delivering it.


I also opted to change Pantones for some colors. With the previous factory, I chose the Pantones as I know what the outcome would be, however this factory puts out slightly different results, so I adjusted them to get the best outcome in person.

I know most people will want to hear solid dates that I can get things out. For the colors with no issues, I estimate mid to late June to receive them. For the latter colors, since there is still work to be done, I'm not sure but I hope you can understand. I could deliver sooner, but I worry about the anodizing. These boards are permanent, and rushing would put the quality in jeopardy.


Also I know refreshed invoices are again close to running out, so I'd like to offer to refresh them once again if you'd like. I'll PM everyone a form that is eligible. This will be done before May 7th due to the new fee refunding process by PayPal.


Thank you for all the patience and allowing me to get this right. Memes aside, I haven't had any issues with participants, and I deeply appreciate this. I hope to repay it by delivering the best possible boards. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.

the new blue gray (19-4028 TPX) looks a lot darker than the original pantone, but I guess you're saying that the factory colors come out a bit different than the swatches.  Shame about the delay again, but as you said, better to get it right in the end.

The smokin something if they think that blue in the photos was even close.  lol

The ultraviolet may not be what you intended, but it's quite lovely.

Yes, they have typically come out lighter. If you compare Ultra Violet, or Blue Gray, to the X60 Rs, it should give a decent idea of how the Pantone translates.

Definitely not close, but I can't really argue if they say it's within tolerances :'(

It was a really nice color, but I was aiming towards a richer/deeper purple

i have a very serious concern. speaking with the supreme authority for all the uv/pink participants, i expect that the uv match the pink exactly. in color, hue, saturation, tint, shade, brightness, and color. anything less is unacceptable.

Those colors came up on a quick google search.

I think I didn‘t quite understand what you meant in your post: Do you think the outcome of the new blue will look more like the old blue due to their „color inaccuracy“ (or whatever you would call it)? Or do you just think it will be easier for them to get the second color more accurate than they were with the first one?
Do you have a picture of the blue X60 R?

I‘m not in a hurry and the time of delivery basically doesn‘t really matter to me. I‘m just not sure yet if I‘d actually like to get the board in the new blue color.. That‘s why I am asking for clarification. :)

Thanks for the update, still looking forward to the board!

Yes. The color I chose is taking into account what happens to the colors provided when anodized, e.g. they go lighter and less saturated.

Picture of the Blue Gray X60 R is in the post.

I want it close to the T60 color, which imo is perfect for Blue Gray. Unfortunately it doesn't show well in pictures, but I think this one is the most accurate:

(https://i.imgur.com/Qi7h3PF.png)

If there's something I've learnt though, surface area of parts matter. T60 and X60 R used the same Pantone, but all 3 aluminum parts had different colors. So it's best to adjust the Pantone to get the thing I want in person with their variances rather than hope they get better at matching.

Not really. Looking like late June for easy colors. I'll post pictures when I get em.


What's the status with this?

My main focus right now is to clear what I have in my house to create some space - which I'm at the end of (think 10 or so that I'll be sending next week). Then will order boxes, send shipping forms, and get the wrist rests done. Goal is to be at "zero" by the time easy colors come in, and wrist rests are the last on that list.

Still on track for delivery to me mid to late June.

Unfortunately, the colors that'll be delivered first have changed due to anodizing constraints. Factory can only do 3/4 colors at a time to achieve good results, so the 4 colors I chose were Black, Silver, Crimson Red, and the normal Red (for plates). This means 7 boards - Pink, Olive, and 2 Ultra Violet tops - won't be in this batch. I believe there are 26 boards in this batch.

However I need to say this as it may affect on fulfillment. I have applied for VAT (value added tax, 20%) exemption for Noxary, which means that shipments that I'm basically "reshipping" can be marked at 0% VAT. This is because I am not the end user, therefore I shouldn't pay taxes. Most manufacturers are fine under-declaring, however even with that, I still don't fancy paying thousands in taxes I shouldn't be. I'm not sure how long the approval process takes, but I will be asking the factory to hold the shipment back until I have the exemption. I'll keep the thread updated on results of that.

Yep, nothing has really changed for Blue Gray. I'd still like to test it with another board before having 280 & 220s anodized. Things will be clearer after this first batch is delivered.

Before the exemption, I would be acting as the end user, therefore paying VAT on each board (which is 20% plus handling fees in the UK).

After the exemption, I do not pay tax on each board (everything is "zero rated"), as I'm shipping them to buyers. Therefore I won't be paying the EU VAT for the end user, but the end user will pay for it.

A really simple way to put it is to check what your import fees/taxes would be if you were to receive something manufactured in China.


Your color does not need to be changed. Could you expand on what you mean by this?


I second this.

Nothing has changed for residents outside the EU.

Please check what your import fees/taxes on items manufactured in China are.

So let me get this straight as far as I get this:

I paid 450 USD for a board (with shipping to be added later, fine with that) which would have included you paying the VAT(tax), which of  course you included in your calculations.
Now, you dont pay the VAT, but I will have to, effectly raising the board price by 20% (or 19% VAT in case of germany).
Do I get this right? Will you refund me the 20% VAT you calculated in your price?

I've previously paid around 2-5% VAT due to manufacturers under declaring. That was included in my general margins - that I'd have to pay a very small amount for taxes and it's more bother to apply for exemption.

My current manufacturer like to do things legally, and declare at full value. This means I'd have to pay over $10,000 USD in VAT when I shouldn't be paying any. Clear decision imo.

I'm sorry it'll effect 5-6 people, but I just can't be paying that much for something I don't have to.

It'll only affect this first shipment as it won't be sent until the proper information is on it. I might get the proper info before it ships, in which it shouldn't delay.

Yeah, I'd have to register to collect VAT for that, which is different to registering to be zero rated in the UK.

I also don't have $10k to loan to the government which is why I went for zero rated.

From what I understand, sales to countries outside of the EU do not include VAT and sales inside of the EU do include VAT.

From gov.uk:
Quote
If you supply goods to a customer in another EU country who is not registered for VAT in that country and you’re responsible for delivery, this is a ‘distance sale’. The most common examples are mail order or internet sales to private individuals in another EU country.
Quote
If you sell goods or services to someone who is not VAT-registered in another EU country, you must charge VAT in the normal way, just as you would for a UK customer. You include the sale in your VAT Return for the period when the tax point takes place.

To be fair to Xondat, iirc he's always said he won't mark down. People shouldn't enter GBs expecting the runner to break the law. And who would you expect to pay for a damaged or missing keyboard if something went awry in the post with a board declared under value?

If you are changing address, all you need to do is fill out the shipping form when your board is ready with the address you want.

Any address you previously used on PayPal is not regarded, and only the address on the form matters.

When paying the shipping invoice, please make sure your address is correct on PayPal so that it matches the shipping form.

Now of course, we're not doing that because we're not doing anything that would be considered 'illegal', right?

I can ship to wherever someone wants, and all packages will be declared at full value. :thumb:

Declared at full value? Come on, most runners have made tons of GBs declaring the boards for lower than full value and had no issues whatsoever. I’m not interested in paying 50% import taxes on +$700. I love the design and have waited patiently for long enough, and this is a huge slap to the face.

To be fair to Xondat, iirc he's always said he won't mark down. People shouldn't enter GBs expecting the runner to break the law. And who would you expect to pay for a damaged or missing keyboard if something went awry in the post with a board declared under value?

Clearly, that’d be on me, if I don’t want to pay for insurance I should be the one losing in case anything goes wrong. If this was already mentioned, then my bad, I wasn’t aware.

Still, I don’t see why it shouldn’t be an option for us (buyers) to take the risk. I’ve never had issues with parcels getting lost, damaged, etc.

Just to clear up some things:

I'm not making anyone pay VAT twice. If I have to pay VAT for the few EUs so they don't pay it twice, then fine, but I'll have to save up to pay for those.

Nothing has legally changed from when the group buy ran. I am still trying to figure out this as it's obviously a complex issue.

This only affects EU residents regarding the VAT. The first shipment might be delayed so the proper export/import codes are being used.

Regarding undervaluing, I believe I have to prove that all products received were shipped to customers. If each kit is valued at $500 to me, I can't send a few out at $250 as then there will be inconsistencies. I can look into it more, but as far as I'm aware, it's illegal.

It's not a complex issue, it's the absolute basis knowledge of how to run a business.

You shouldn't handle up to a hundred k USD or more of other people's money without knowing anything about this.


I am actually speechless, and yes it's how oblotkzi explained it.

One way of doing it is the way Oblotzky explained, but that isn't applicable to someone with the majority of non-EU exports.

As far as I understand, and I'm happy for anyone versed in EU/UK VAT law to correct me:
I do not have the thousands for option 2, therefore I'm going for option 1.

Fairly sure I've misread information regarding the VAT for EU buyers.

  • Non-EU - I prove export, no VAT is paid. Two ways to do this:
    • (1) Register for zero rated VAT, pay 0% on import, prove export.
    • (2) Pay 20% for all items, prove export, claim back VAT from the government.
  • EU - items rated at 20% VAT, I pay VAT for the buyer.
I do not have the thousands for option 2, therefore I'm going for option 1.

Fairly sure I've misread information regarding the VAT for EU buyers.

There are no import taxes for shipments that are between EU countries, so there is no way of anyone to ask for money, how would that work? Do you put a sticker that read 'RECIPIENT HAS TO PAY 83 EUROS' in all caps?

I was going to call my DHL representative to discuss it, since you can change how something is delivered (e.g. who pays taxes, if taxes are paid, etc). Basically yeah though. However seems like I won't be doing that and I'll take the loss for each EU order.

I applied for the wrong VAT exemption (and was obviously rejected), so I've applied for the correct one now. Not sure when I'll get accepted but shipment will be held until the proper export codes are on it.

As a reminder, no one will be charged extra by me.
An easier way of understanding it is that for an order where I charge $500, non-EU paid $500 base, whereas EU paid $400 base + $100 VAT (and I effectively undercharged 20% on the base $400).

Alright, I got rejected again. Dunno why, it doesn't say.

Going to try ringing tomorrow and get even more guidance - I applied exactly how I was told to (to be accepted) but still got shut down. If it doesn't make sense then I'll speak to an accountant.

2nd to worst case, which now seems more probable, is that I: get a loan; pay the VAT; then reclaim the VAT back on the exported (from the EU) keyboards.

Worst case is I have to pay VAT on all of these kits, which isn't correct anyway so I doubt it'll get that far.

I go away for 11 days on Thursday, but I'll keep trying throughout.

True

The blue gray and dark grey extras that might appear are both considered difficult colors. Leading me to believe that extras will be assessed and sold after the GB spots are fulfilled. Crazy how I could read the thread that we are in and figure that one out.

I'll know for sure when I get this first batch.

Extras from each batch will be sold once all from that batch are shipped to customers (if I have any).

Don't think I'll have extras from this first batch for example, as I order a percentage more of each order. But I'll definitely have extras for the very popular colors, such as Blue Gray and Dark Gray.

Right now the main goal is to deliver these Black/Silver/Crimson Red units so everyone can see the quality.

I sorta presume everyone thinks the same way.

I would rather take 30 or so days to test a color than just rush into it and potentially get bad results. Especially after all this time.

I'm fine with that as well.

My concern is more along the lines, when ultra violet finally ships, there might be no (or not enough) extras in case something goes wrong, not even in a different color.

I've had a failure rate of approximately 10%, and I've ordered 20-25% extra. Failure defined as not A-stock.

I'm not too concerned about having extras for non-GB participants though. Only enough A-stock to fulfill the GB itself.

Unfortunately the Crimson Red anodizing doesn't match perfectly, but at least the color looks cool. They'll be redone.

Progress

Holy crap, that is a really deep red, practically a deep wine color.

Black/Silver update?

They'll all ship at the same time because freight costs are high :-\

Hopefully everyone likes it :thumb: I think it's the perfect Pantone for it.

I pretty much did, but that was based on the 1st batch being produced on a sensible timeline, so I'm waiting to get those and then I can adjust etc.

Been meaning to update on the wrist rest situation for a while, those that have PMd know, but needed to post openly.

I QCd them a while back and out of the 40, I think maybe 10 were good, and the rest were meh to pretty bad. So I've been thinking about redoing them.

I think I'm going to send the good ones to people that have a Black/Silver/Crimson Red board from the first batch, and then redo the others.

I'll have these shipped to me, and then I'll sort out shipping invoices etc with the people that chose these colors.

I was hoping it wouldn't happen at the same time, but I move in 13 days, so we'll have to see how that plays out regarding shipping. I want them out ASAP, I understand people have been waiting too long for these.

Going to finalize the schedule after I receive these boards. The delays might be avoidable, or might be one-off etc. Need to speak to them properly and then I can be realistic about the timeline.

In my case it’s simply due to the current economical situation in my country making it so that paying the import taxes to get the board isn’t an expense I can (responsibly) make. I’d love to keep the board since I’ve already made all the preparations for the build, no doubts on the quality on my part.

Because of the huge delay and not because of quality as far as I know.
I was originally in this buy as well, although I got a refund from Xondat. (sry for bad communication xondat, didn't mean to **** you over :( )

All FedEx shipments over $800 require an EORI tax number. I've applied, and should receive it tomorrow. I'll then give the number to FedEx, who can then have it released from customs, and be on it's way to me.

Probably arrive Monday, which is the day I'm moving, but my mum will stay in and receive the package. Then I'll have to move all the boards to my new place. Bit complicated!

Honest question, if a lot of boards are being made in the same factory, would there be large discrepancies in qc, ano, color matchng, etc. between different boards in different gbs?

runner QC standards/willingness to deal with the factory's bull****

they know that they're basically the only one, so it seems like they're raising prices and lowering quality from what i've heard from a few folks

Just to throw my 2 cents in as someone that actually owns a noxary board from current factory in question (X60R) and quite a lot of customs from 'reputable' makers. I've got no idea about who else is supposedly using the same factory but I would score the quality of X60R (my own personal one at least) as at the very least equal if not higher than that of other customs. I heard some other R's had a bit of an issue with some of the colour matching though mine is great, and the tolerances and ano etc are really excellent. Some TGR boards I've seen for example have colour matching dramatically worse. Assuming that 280/220 turns out in a similar way to R, which there is no reason to think it won't, I'd be very confident in saying I think people will be very pleased with what they receive.

Not trying to argue, just genuinely curious as to where you've heard this from? As afaik the only noxary boards to come from the current factory are X60R, 268 Poly and T60 and I haven't heard anyone that wasn't really pleased with all of them?

Only T60 & X60 R are from my current factory.

268.2 Poly turned out mostly fine, but I had too many B-stock units and they're also holding ~$8k worth of stuff that I doubt I'll get back, so I've changed my poly factory.

Honest question, if a lot of boards are being made in the same factory, would there be large discrepancies in qc, ano, color matchng, etc. between different boards in different gbs?

Shouldn't be. Aluminum supply, anodizing method, and quality control carried out by the factory will all be consistent. It wouldn't surprise me if 2 completely different projects that were manufactured at the same time, both anodized silver, felt identical.

Looking forward to getting my Blue Steel (whatever the variant name is) WKL with 4 PCBs and 4 different plates. I gave away a 8X build with a brass plate built for pure silence, on 80g sprints with DSC, to a friend whom had a kid and simply needed the silence. Oddly I made the built with custom heavy springs on silent black stems in modified red cherry housings so it worked out. Now im torn between which plates I'll use between both 5mm brass or poly, parital, or what not; for switches that'll range builds between pure silent, pure custom heavy black, heavy yellow shorties, or quick heavy navies.

Been running speed non-box navies on a 60% for all work related material and a heavy modified speed yellow kailh with 90-100g springs for the linear blacks at home. Suppose I got a few choices to build soon. And anyone that responds a less than 70g spring for me to simply go screw yourselves since I run springs 70-100g as the norm.

Looking forward to getting the stuff in and having to break out switches and materials from storage.

The picture makes the red look a couple shades lighter, it is darker and more accurate to the Pantone.

I have enough, it's always good to check that. Going to count plates n ****, then start sorting them, etc. Will order boxes and screws tonight.

Post by: xondat on Wed, 02 October 2019, 23:13:53
Here is the order of the remaining boards:

Batch #2: Lightning Silver, Olive Green, Rose Gold, Vortex Gray
Batch #3: Blue Gray, Jet Black, Pink
Batch #4: Meteorite Gray, Ultra Violet, Crimson Red

(https://i.imgur.com/7uECgQk.png)

Why this order? As noted in the image, the 3 big colors still require testing. I'm not confident I can achieve very good anodizing matching for select colors, and I would rather do a test batch on a different board first instead of risking it with this project.

The rest of the colors are based purely on popularity. The more parts required of the color, the higher priority it has. The only exception to this is Crimson Red and Olive Green - there are more CR, but those waiting on CR 220s will get their CR 280s shortly. Imo this is better than making 3 people wait the longest without anything.

Each batch should take around 6-8 weeks to produce, so please consider this as I will allow color switching. If you would like to swap colors, please PM me with your previous color, and the color you'd like to change to. Please note that Rose Gold & Vortex Gray are unavailable to switch to.

I've spent a very long time figuring this out, including scheduling testing & making sure it's absolutely fair to everyone. If there is major kickback on something, then I'll do everything to try and resolve it in both of our interests.



Why are we at this point?

The original factory I was going to use kept producing worse stuff every batch, I had to change factories.

The two options were:
Either option would take a while as we all can see, but I'm glad I went with the second option.

There's a catch with the new factory though - being limited to 3 colors + silver per anodizing batch. This is to get higher quality from each run, but due to this buy offering lots of colors originally, and wanting to honor all of those, it'll take 4 batches (of which 1 has already been done) to complete. I'd love to just push them all into 1 batch and get this done with, but it just isn't possible. So this is the best I can do.

I've had a couple of questions regarding names of colors:
Why the change? Those that know me will note my love for cars, so I decided to start using colors from British sports cars. Most are Aston Martin colors, some are Lotus, although I expect to use colors from the likes of Caterham and McLaren in the future. The idea came from a slight issue of having three different reds - 199 C, 187 C, and 188 C. The latter two became Hyper Red and Crimson Red.

There will be more regarding British sports cars in the future, hopefully no more number names :)

What's the status of the wrist rests? I paid for shipping at some point, but then nothing happened.

I have some that passed QC, which will be going to those that are currently receiving/expecting shipping of their boards.

I will be redoing the rest with my new manufacturer. If your board is in batch 1, I'll ship it with the board and refund shipping, otherwise I'll ship it separately.

Can we expect outstanding paypal invoices to be resent in the next 2-3 weeks?

It's refresh time!

I will look into a final refresh, I'm not sure how the new PayPal changes will effect, but I think it should be okay.

Thanks for the update. Curious about one thing though. What is the 280s/220s? Iirc at the beginning of this gb there was only one version of the board

As others have said, it just has a different weight, and a few more color choices. It was a planned version, but I only distributed the slots to friends that joined the GB in the first place. It wasn't advertised at all because those that did find out pestered me for only the S version (because it's limited and numbered).

The weight is just a variation of the 268 AG weight, which was split into 3. I liked that and wanted to do it again, so this time it became 2 (also notable mention of the amazing 456GT, which has a similar visual).

Please do not message me asking for an S. They were all distributed when the buy started, and all are assigned. Thanks.

any extras?

Update on the boards waiting to be shipping:

The majority have paid their shipping invoice, of which I'm mostly caught up on packing. Hoping the last few people will pay their invoices soon so I can have one big pickup, but will probably have a couple so others aren't waiting. Expecting to have the majority picked up this week :thumb:


Also there has to be a cut off for color changes, at least for the first batch, so please let me know no later than the 10th of October. After this point, the only options will be batch 2/3.

Noting this is "closed" now, if you want to switch colors between batches 2 & 3, then please let me know, but otherwise batch 1 is locked in.

I have also PM'd, very interested in snagging an extra if at all possible. Please let me know!

Update on the boards waiting to be shipping:

The majority have paid their shipping invoice, of which I'm mostly caught up on packing. Hoping the last few people will pay their invoices soon so I can have one big pickup, but will probably have a couple so others aren't waiting. Expecting to have the majority picked up this week :thumb:


Also there has to be a cut off for color changes, at least for the first batch, so please let me know no later than the 10th of October. After this point, the only options will be batch 2/3.

Noting this is "closed" now, if you want to switch colors between batches 2 & 3, then please let me know, but otherwise batch 1 is locked in.

I have also PM'd, very interested in snagging an extra if at all possible. Please let me know!

All are accounted for, however there are two outstanding invoices, I'll post if these become free :)

Hey mate, I filled in the shipping form a few days ago as I didn't notice it had been sent for a while. Haven't received a shipping invoice yet, I assume as I filled it in about a week or so after you sent it out whereas I imagine the majority do so in 24hrs or so. If you could send one through that would be great, thanks.

With UK shipping, I'm going to split the shipment into two, it's ~$40 with DHL. RM has the 2kg limit, but if I split into 2 shipment then it'll be $10 or so per box. Just need to pack and weigh to get an accurate figure to then invoice for.

Seems like I can still refund and have PP refund the fees, so I will send a form out tomorrow. Approx 165 days since, so should be a good window for people to get it done.

If you've paid shipping, it's being collected tomorrow.

Those waiting for shipping invoices, they will be sent over the weekend.

If you haven't paid your invoice, or filled out the shipping form (via DMs), please do.

Regarding wrist rests in this batch of 280s, I got 4 A-stock out of 50, which have all been sent out. The new ones are on order and will be shipped separately as planned.

Serious Q: how often would you like updates when it's just a case of waiting for production progress? I only really get updates on production at the start to confirm it's started, and near the end saying it's almost done.

Still waiting for mine, shipping invoice paid weeks ago...

The remaining DHL packages (non-US) are being collected tomorrow (11/8). Apologies for the delay.

Honestly, it's not about whether you're a "patient" man or not, anyone would be a bit upset over this. Was supposed to be a gb that gets fulfilled in a few months, going over a year now so...yeah, at least cross your fingers that you literally get a flawless final product else that insane wait was for pretty much nothing.

Weekly update: nothing new on the case side. Got PCB pricing so will be submitting the order asap.

So, 2 months now for 35 boards in batch 2 that are still "in production."  I'm still not a patient man.  I try, but it just doesn't work for me. :(

Well surely it'll be time to test out the blue gray soon.  right?

Sorry that things are taking so long. Based on Batch 1, I'm happy with the call to switch factories, as I've had minimal issues. The only issue is how far away we get from the original dates.

No worries, you're not radio silent which is the only thing that makes this bearable. Well, that and the anticipation of receiving these boards. Glad to hear everything is working well at the new factory.

Hi friends, for any owners that have received their 280, I've updated VIA to support it! The links for the newest version and the firmware you need to flash are below.

Hey all, just wanted to check in. Apologies for missing last weeks post.

I'll be moving to bi-weekly updates when nothing new has happened, and obviously post "off schedule" when something does happen.

The remaining PCBs are paid for, so now it's truly just the waiting game.

For people that already have their board, as Olivia mentioned, 280 is now on VIA! See the links above to get it working.

using the post in october as a guideline, it seems that we are at then, at least, two months behind in getting batch 2 to its buyers. batch 2 has been in production for 4 months, projected to be a minimum of 5. obviously a lot more than the 6 to 8 weeks suggested before.

i think we need a new, realistic timeline for the project. honestly, it might just make sense to get opt outs for this because having to wait until 2021 for this keyboard just seems unreasonable for me, as a batch 4 participant.

I reluctantly have to agree with this. As much as I want to wait, it's really hard not to get frustrated or disheartened by the fact that by our current trajectory, we have to wait two years for these boards. Also, out of curiosity, is this officially the longest gb for a kb yet?

Where are we on this in terms of production?

I think the brass parts will finish first, followed by the polycarbonate parts, followed by the aluminum cases. Anodized parts last as it's the most important, they will be like this quality/finish wise:

Also the wrist rests arrived, so I will be sending them out shortly once I send shipping invoices and those are paid.

Sorry the pictures are rotated. Also the 280 pictured there isn't assembled, and is a very old prototype.

I think I have a couple left over but will sell them after.

Been meaning to update on the wrist rest situation for a while, those that have PMd know, but needed to post openly.

I QCd them a while back and out of the 40, I think maybe 10 were good, and the rest were meh to pretty bad. So I've been thinking about redoing them.

I think I'm going to send the good ones to people that have a Black/Silver/Crimson Red board from the first batch, and then redo the others.

Quite honestly this is getting a little out of hand and ridiculous. I think the majority of us have been patient and understanding but without anyone really speaking up, it's like a free pass to delay and start up other projects (XRF? Evija?) I understand manufacturers have queues and colors require testing/QC but this is a bit much. So i'm totally on board for the idea of opt outs as well.

Also just to point out - Polycarbonate wrist rests were delivered to you in December of 2018. It wasn't until 8 months later in August 2019 that you decide to let us know that only 10 out of 40 were good? 8 months for that? Really? I think that speaks for itself...

Caveat emptor tho right?

I'll make a new realistic timeline when I receive batch 2. Definitely no where near 2021. I cannot afford opt outs, sorry.

Yes I do choose to do other projects, simply because they do not delay this. It's clear you follow what I do, so it'd be ignorant to ignore those projects I've started and finished (maybe not completely follow as I haven't started Evija). It's a massive mental burden to have this, there is no free pass at all. I'm dedicated to finishing this despite the time & cost. If that isn't clear now then I'm not sure what else I can do immediately.

I've made a lot of mistakes sadly, but I can learn from them and my goal right now is to deliver flawless keyboard kits. I'd say I'm finally on track quality wise. And aside from this, I'd say timeframe has improved a lot. Still plenty of room for growth though.

P.S. It'd be nice if you used your main. You're talking facts (ignoring Evija), so I'm not sure what you have to lose.

I reluctantly have to agree with this. As much as I want to wait, it's really hard not to get frustrated or disheartened by the fact that by our current trajectory, we have to wait two years for these boards. Also, out of curiosity, is this officially the longest gb for a kb yet?

Please see my comments. I know it's disappointing but yeah.. not much else to say really.

Not the longest, although I do wish those with longer the best in getting it sorted. When stuff goes wrong, GB runners get a lot of **** (which is fine considering we take peoples money), but unfortunately there isn't really a separation of those trying and those not.

quite frankly that's an unreasonable position, especially because i have no faith that we aren't going to be in 2021 when batch 4 gets shipped. the blue gray still isn't production ready, let alone the two colors in batch 4. batch 3 alone is the size of batches 1 and 2. and there hasn't been any indication for why the timeline posited in october hasn't been followed.

it shouldn't be the onus of the participant to try to find another buyer to take their spot in this considering the myriad failures in following a timely production schedule.

At this point whatever schedule there was is probably thrown out the window due to China. It seems like this is a "the board will come when it comes" GB; I'm not too worried I'll get it in the end, and it doesn't seem like there's that much more we can ask for at this point.

Batch 2 didn't get started quick enough in short. Not sure what else I can do regarding faith. I've committed all the money towards everything. It's frustrating for me too but beyond just being frustrated, really not sure what else to do in the meantime.

I can make a form for people interested in buying if you'd like? Although it'll just add an extra step which seems fairly unnecessary.

Any updates on batch 3/4 timelines?  Honest question: I see multiple other projects getting started on your website with 280 about to hit 2 years (in 2 months) with many colors still not even ordered/verified based on last updates, what is the priority to get 280 done vs these other projects (Evija GB states it is starting in March ending in May, why can we not get similar timelines on 280, is it not the priority to finish this GB)?

Been updating on my site so posting here:

280 / 220
- Batch 2 is still the next thing to leave the factory, however they are still not at full capacity, so timelines are up in the air right now. I hope to see these in May.


Did something happen to the website? no updates?

Sorry - been in the middle of updating it etc.

Priority is still with 280, but as discussed previously, I'm limited per batch with the colors. I can run the Evija HG alongside because it's only being anodized clear (aka silver), which is always available. Custom colors like batch 3/4 require custom baths, and there's a max at one time (3). So once batch 2 is finished, batch 3 colors can be made etc. :)

It's possible to run things concurrently, I'm not the only one to do it. I'd 100% stop all my more current projects if it meant 280 would finish quicker, but sadly it wouldn't have any effect.

Batch 2 has now entered anodizing. Hoping to see these in May, however it's still difficult to say. The second and final batch of PCBs (275 total) have arrived with Rozakiin, and are now going through programming & testing.

yikes

Not heard anything specifically about 280/220 when I asked, just got told they're still in anodizing.

Got an update an hour later:

The Batch 2 220s are ready, whilst the 280s are still undergoing anodizing. I expect these to be shipped from the manufacturer mid June.

Just to clarify, are you saying you expect 280s shipped in mid June, or the 220s?

Hi guys,

I received the Batch 2 shipment today, however unfortunately 1 of the 4 boxes has been stolen from my building before I went to collect it from concierge. I'm currently in the process of taking inventory to figure out what's missing and will update as soon as I know.

This has just happened in the past 2 hours, so please understand that I might not be able to answer anything for sure until things have settled.


If you happen to be the individual or group that has the box, please contact me @ support@noxary.co - I'm happy to keep it anonymous, I'd just like the contents of the box back. Willing to pay cash and keep it between us. Thanks.

Here's the list of missing parts, luckily the effect isn't that big.

I'm 2 short on 280 S in Vortex Gray, and 2 short on 220 in Lightning Silver. Still thinking about how to distribute the current ones, I'm fine reproducing the missing parts but obviously 4 people will have to wait longer than the others.

Tricky situation but I hope there is understanding from everyone :)

Regarding the boards I actually have, I'll be working on QC of course. Boxes will be ordered in the next few days. Rozakiin is going to ship the PCBs needed sometime after the 12th as university rightly takes priority until then :thumb:

One last note - this doesn't change anything to do with Batch 3 and 4, those will still go ahead as expected.

Lightning Silver parts can be produced at any time, the annoying bit is producing new Vortex Gray which come after Batch 3 & 4. There's only 2, so I'll discuss with those individually.

I've concluded that no one in the public Geekhack 280/220 buy is affected by the stolen parts, so there probably won't be more public comments on the topic. My building management will be submitting an insurance claim soon, so overall just an annoying experience that benefits no one.

Sorry to hear about the theft, that is unfortunate.

In terms of color testing, is the plan to color test batches 3 and 4 simultaneously, so that production of batch 4 will begin immediately following completion of batch 3? Or will batch 4 testing only begin after completing production of batch 3?

All colors are being tested in this test batch, so yes, production of batch 4 will begin immediately as noted in the quick timeline

Really sorry to hear about them being nicked mate. Wonder what whoever stole them is going to do with them? Definitely not the easiest thing to sell on without word getting out and having the specialist knowledge of what they are/their value. Makes me think the most likely thing is just an opportunist grabbed a heavy box and once they find out whats in it they'll probably just get dumped somewhere  :(

Quick update - boxes are on order and expected late next week, and PCBs should be sent out at the start of next week. As always I'll send a couple out first to make sure the packaging is flawless, then send the rest out. I'll post here when the shipping form has been PMd to those expecting.

Can we get an update on the 3rd batch color testing? It's the end of the month now...

I'm working out the finer details. I'm happy with the Blue Gray but increasing the quantity responsibly is my primary concern (there's over 60 Blue Gray units, and I'm still paranoid after the mismatched X60 Rs honestly). I'd also love to get some feedback on the Blue Gray when buyers have it, but that most likely will not happen.

How do you mean? I'm slated for a blue grey and would be willing to post some pics and my impressions but I'm afraid they might not be all that helpful since I don't exactly have the reference OTD board to compare it to lol

How do you mean? I'm slated for a blue grey and would be willing to post some pics and my impressions but I'm afraid they might not be all that helpful since I don't exactly have the reference OTD board to compare it to lol

I think I described it badly.

Meteorite Gray, Blue Gray, Lightning Silver.

I'm not sure XRF will be able to ship before work can begin on the Blue Gray 280/220s :)

Hmm... could be the lighting but it looks more blue than the OTD image found earlier in the thread.

Also, would extra plates and PCB's be available for purchase after the GB is completed? Looking to get a 5mm poly and 5mm brass plate for different sound signatures.

Collection tomorrow for all but 1 in this batch (waiting on the shipping invoice payment!) - everyone should receive tracking via a text from DHL Express. If you don't get this by Friday, please DM me for tracking.

So can I take that to mean we are on schedule for batch 3? The blue grey in that photo does look quite nice.

Sure, the schedule isn't strict but hoping to tie Batch 3 & 4 up by roughly November.

Definitely the lighting. It's blue in daylight, but really dark blue gray in lesser light. It's important to remember the original picture was taken on the floor so it appears very dark.

Yes.

Would love to pick up a WKL Meteorite Gray 280with 5mm brass plate. Would be willing consider orders that also have a 5mm polycarbonate plate and additional PCB included even though I might not need them.

Having it built and shipped to me would be a bonus as well. Would be happy to work out the details with a builder. Let me know!

i'm outta here :( at this point i'm not even sure if this is gonna be delivered at all with these kind of delays.

Nothing new.

It's Chinese New Year right now, so there won't be anything new for the next 2-3 weeks. Hopefully something will ship to me by the end of February :)

using the post in october as a guideline, it seems that we are at then, at least, two months behind in getting batch 2 to its buyers. batch 2 has been in production for 4 months, projected to be a minimum of 5. obviously a lot more than the 6 to 8 weeks suggested before.

i think we need a new, realistic timeline for the project. honestly, it might just make sense to get opt outs for this because having to wait until 2021 for this keyboard just seems unreasonable for me, as a batch 4 participant.

As before, my attitude hasn't changed, if I need to take time to make necessary adjustments for quality, then I will and have done. This is effectively 4 group buys in 1 due to the color limitations. It sucks it's this way, but the only thing that can be done is to finish the buy with the highest quality boards, and that takes time. I've had a lot of participants say this is the highest quality board they've seen, and I intend for every single board to be the same.

There's been so many set backs since I started this buy, but I've never given up, and there's no reason now. Seeing the Batch 2 boards get delivered is another huge motivation to carry on.

For what it's worth I appreciate your determination to get this done and how much more communicative you have been than other GB runners. I already received my 280 and the quality is fantastic. I had been frustrated by the delays initially but got the main portion of my order (waiting on 220 and wrist rest) and realized you were still on top of the project. Now, with pandemic related delays, we have to be even more patient. Truly I understand the frustration of many and this has been one of if not the longest group buy I've been a part of. However, you really haven't wavered in your dedication to get a quality end product to everyone. I've been part of a few very poorly managed group buys and this one is the least of my concerns. Good luck with wrapping this up and again thanks for being pretty well on top of everything.

I figured that's why this group buy is taking so long with you wanting to ensure proper QC. I hope you do understand though that it is then reasonable for people to expect absolutely impeccable boards. At least that's what I'm 100% expecting considering proper QC is the only reason why this GB is going to take more than two years. Best of luck to you and I'm sure if my patience has lasted this long, I'll be just fine waiting a bit more.

That'll all happen once I get confirmation the boards have shipped to me. I'll be getting a 280 in Blue Gray just to confirm the anodizing is ok soon.

Posting the update from my site: The Blue Gray turned out too light, so is being redone with more reference material. Hoping to hear how reanodizing turns out in a couple weeks.

I'm still planning on getting a production unit to confirm the color, but the pictures were showing the anodizing color was noticeably off so no point sending one just yet.

The two Blue Gray samples pictured are currently in transit to Noxary. The bottom case is slightly darker, and is likely to be the chosen color. The sample that was sent is very close to the darker case, and I believe this color is perfect. Due to the COVID-19/DHL situation, there is no ETA on when the samples will arrive, and when approval for the remaining Blue Gray cases will be given.

The other parts in Batch 3, such as Weights and Jet Black/Pink Aluminum parts have finished.


COVID-19 in Great Britain, DHL Response

A new variant of COVID-19 is spreading rapidly throughout Great Britain, therefore DHL have decided to "impose a completely delivery stop for business and private customer parcels until further notice."

Quote
For our Post and Parcel unit, we are unfortunately forced to impose a complete delivery stop for business and private customer parcels as well as goods-bearing letters to Great Britain and Ireland with immediate effect until further notice. Unfortunately, due to a lack of storage capacity, we have to return consignments with goods content and bulky goods to the senders.

Currently there are two packages being held by DHL, and it's not clear what will happen with them. The 1st package has the new screws required for the remaining XRF units. The 2nd package contains the new Blue Gray samples, relevant to 280/220 & Evija. Hopefully these are held for a short period whilst stabilize a bit, however there is a decent risk they'll be sent back to the sender. If this is the case, a different express service will be used.

The two Blue Gray samples have arrived, pictured above - the darker one has been chosen. Anodizing will now go ahead, and usually takes about 2 weeks from this point to be completed.

Interesting, so the darker one matches closer to the target 356cl blue grey then? Hard to tell since I can't see the samples in real life but the darker one looks almost washed out in comparison

I believe it's pretty much perfect :)

The 356.2 also becomes washed out in darker conditions.

And it's also important to remember the color mismatch on the original, it is closer to the bottom piece for reference.

Based on these pictures which was the goal from the beginning, I'm happy.

Update on where we are:

I've been disassembling Blue Gray boards, QCing parts, and then assembling them in the proper configuration and with good screws. As I've been reassembling the boards, I noticed some top and bottoms didn't match at all, despite on first glance all the boards did have good color matching. I've now realized that there seems to be 2 or 3 variants of this Blue Gray -- I assume because the anodizer can only anodize a certain number of items at once. Perfectly normal, but it's important I keep the top and bottoms matching as closely as possible. I've been backtracking and making sure all the pieces are paired together correctly. Here are a couple images showing this "problem":

(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/613157104408068106/824814886260834354/image0.jpg)

In this image, you can see the colors aren't perfectly matched.

(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/613157104408068106/824814886525337631/image1.jpg)

Swapping the tops around makes the colors the same.

I'm coming to the end of rematching everything, should be done tomorrow. Unfortunately this means nothing was sent in the past 7 days, however I'm now aiming to get some packages collected early next week.

I've been working on the premise that people would want their kit to be shipped very shortly after paying their shipping invoice, hence why many haven't received an invoice. However, if people overwhelming would prefer me to invoice everyone and wait for tracking, I'm happy to do that.


In Batch 4 news, production has now been confirmed, and is scheduled for 90 days starting on the 29th. This is the final batch, so it's great to see things coming to a close :)


Thanks for everyones patience once again.

Hey Xondat, appreciate you matching the the Blue Grays together! I personally would prefer receiving an invoice first and then getting the shipping / tracking later because right now I'm spending time checking back and forth on geekhack /paypal to make sure I didn't miss the invoice. I'd rather pay the invoice and just wait for the tracking email, can't speak for everyone else though.
Title: Re: [GB] Noxary 280 & 220 (Batch 3 Shipping)
Post by: xondat on Fri, 02 April 2021, 14:12:29
I decided to take an extra step and check the color matching on every single unit, at the same time, therefore under the same lighting conditions. Everything has now been checked within the same 2 hour period, in natural light on a cloudless day. I'm happy with approximately 2/3rds of boards in these conditions. With the remaining third, I'll try mixing the pieces around to get some more well matching cases. With the amount of time it's taken to get to this point, I don't want to disappoint anyone, hence putting a lot of time into this QC step - I hope everyone understands.

For now, I'll go forward with the cases I'm happy with, getting these fully assembled, shipping invoices sent, and picked up. This'll give me more space to work, and the majority of people will get their cases finally :)

FYI: All but 1 Pink 280 from this batch has been fulfilled, so I'm only talking about Blue Gray 280s right now.

I hear you, I figure this is the mindset a lot of people have, as I often get messages asking if invoices have been sent yet. With the progress made above, I'll be getting the majority of invoices out shortly.

No, sorry. I’d have to get three different sized boxes instead of two, and there just isn’t the quantity to do that as my boxes have MOQs.

Woop woop!  I got mine.  What a cool-ass color!  I don't think I've ever seen such a chameleon keyboard before.  I was surprised by the blue of it when I first unwrapped it.  Then, as I was walking to my office with it, my eyes convinced me it was as gray as gray could be.

Here's a quick photo comparison with a few other gray and blue boards that you might be familiar with.

Mine is nice.  The finish feels a bit dry compared to some other boards I have.  Top is slightly lighter than the bottom, but no other issues so far (still haven't built it).

same here. it does have a dry feel. for me the ano is smoother than my LZ  but rougher than my hbcp so somewhere in the middle.  I was shocked at how low this board is! my hbcp is already on the lower end but it's a giant compare to this board

considering how long this group buy has gone on for my bar was pretty high but I'm happy to report that at least for me this came out good.

Great to see the boards have arrived and everyone is satisfied :thumb: Excited to see peoples builds when they're completed.



Regarding the remaining boards in this batch:

As previously mentioned, I've now tried mixing parts around, however this hasn't led to getting any more kits with color matching up to the standard they should be at. For reference, about 60% of Blue Gray 280s were approved, and these have been fulfilled. The boards that don't have great color matching are the remaining 40%, including all the 220s. I understand this is going to upset people, as it has upset me too.

I think the best course of action now is to have the boards reanodized. My belief is that there are two options - either send them back to the factory, and hope they come out better, or send them to a new anodizer with experience in keyboards, of which I know of 2 that have put out great work. There are advantages and disadvantages to both options, however I believe sending them back to the factory will just mean going in circles until they're all up to the standard they should be. I'd love to get peoples opinions on this, but I think working with a new anodizer is the direction to go.

As of right now, I do not know how long this will take as I haven't messaged a new anodizer, however I will get talks going and try and come back with an estimate by the end of the month.

I want this over and boards delivered to everyone, however there is no point after all this time to give up on the quality and deliver something sub par. I will make sure everyone is satisfied with the end result. Thank you for everyones continued patience, it's truly appreciated.

Edit 1: If you haven't received your board, this means you are affected. Faxe, ihalatch, and nug - you have not received an invoice, but your board is being sent this week.

Edit 2: I didn't make it clear enough - I want to hear peoples opinions on this. If you'd rather get a board with not amazing color matching, then it could be arranged. I do not want to send these out as I feel like it's giving up after how long it's been, but if someone is adamant about this, I won't block them.

Sounds like I am one of the affected people. Personally, I wouldn't want to get mismatching case after all this time. That said, is there a possibility that new anodizer also not being able to do a good job matching the top and bottom, or even not matching to the original color you want? Hopefully we wouldn't need to worry about that, but considering how many stuff went wrong so far :), what is the plan if that happens?

Would a new factory be able to match the other factory’s color?  I have my 280 and the top and bottom are quite close to the same color.  But if you go with a new factory will the 220 match?

Looks like I'm affected too. Overall I'm torn. Half of me wants to wait, as I wouldn't want a subpar product after waiting for so long. The other half is just tired of more delays that I'd rather just have the board now. I guess I'll wait and see how long the estimate is from the new factory, and take it from there.

I think trying a new ano place might be worth it, if you believe they can get the color right and matching halves. At this point continuing to wait is not a huge deal to me, at least.

I'm leaning towards getting them re-anodized, I'd prefer getting a board that's up to your standards. I personally don't mind waiting awhile longer, just hope the new anodizer can produce equal if not better results. Looking forward to see good news in the next update!

Looks like I'm one of the affected too as I have not heard anything back after verifying my address and order a month or so ago. I'm willing to wait as it's been this long so far and I would rather get something that meets your standards than not and living with that after waiting for so long.

Quick update, I've heard from 2 of the 3 paths, just waiting on the last one - expecting this week.

Would a new factory be able to match the other factory’s color?  I have my 280 and the top and bottom are quite close to the same color.  But if you go with a new factory will the 220 match?

I'll be providing the same sample, so it'd be as close as it can be.

Finished my build! Quick phone pic; really happy with how it turned out. The thick PC plate feels and sounds very nice. It feels like it vibrates a bit on impact; not too sure how to mitigate that without stiffening the board too much. There's very little clearance underneath the PCB with the plate.

The front height is really low. Way, way lower than any keyboard I've typed on. Weirdly comfortable but also makes me concerned that I have bad typing form.

Overall, very happy with it! Love typing on it!

Update on the Batch 3 Reanodizing:

I heard back from the 3rd option regarding reanodizing and we're all set to have them reanodized. I've been talking to them about specifically the color matching, and they're confident they can get closer than how they currently are. I will be supplying the anodizing sample that the original factory worked to to ensure the same color is achieved.

I still have to wrap up the final details on the order and organize shipping to them (as they're located in Oregon), but once they receive the boards they have estimated a 2 week lead time. Realistically with shipping to them, shipping back to me, me sorting the boards and reassembling etc... I think saying me shipping to you early July is fair to say. Of course I'll keep everyone updated on the process as always.

If anyone has any questions, feel free to ask!

Update on Batch 4:

Nothing much to add, production is going well and on schedule.

Not a full update like I hoped to give, but here is what I know:

Batch 3 reanodizing: bad news unfortunately... The anodizer stopped replying to emails - I was trying to wrap up the final details and then there was just over 1 months silence (to me and a couple others that use them). Apparently they were swamped with work. They have replied now, and I'm still finalizing the order I'll have with them. I can't read the future, but crossing my fingers to have them sent mid July and get them back early to mid August.

Batch 4: waiting on final confirmation, but Batch 4 should be finishing anodizing any time now, so expecting to get them at some point this month. The end is in sight finally - thanks again to everyones patience.

Haha, this IS surreal. I remember that I ordered the board right when the GB open while I was at a wedding. To think that this person now has been married for 3 years and I still haven‘t received the board is kinda wild..

Batch 3 reanodizing: Not the update I wanted to give, but I'm not really sure what's going on at this stage... It's been a few weeks since hearing anything back, so at this stage I'm a bit puzzled. Hopefully they're just extremely busy, as they haven't replied to someone else I know that's using them. I will continue trying to get an update.

Batch 4: Good and bad news.

Good news, the 220s have been received. I will reach out to those expecting, and collected addresses, send shipping invoices, and get them packed.

The image of a Dark Gray 220 won't format correctly so: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/420671918740340737/880962293616222268/image0.jpg

Bad news, the 280s in Batch 4 will need to be remade due to an anodizing issue. From what I understand, the material where the feet mount to warped during anodizing because of how thin it is. I believe this'll take another month, however I'll get a more firm date soon.

Wrist Rests: They were not shipped to me with the 220s, so I assume they aren't done and will be sent with the 280s.

Even though I am really looking forward to getting my blue gray, but at this stage I am a little worried that new anodizer is not going to do a good job matching it to the OG batch(which looks awesome imo).

I wanted to post a lot more of what I'm pulling together to try and make things right for those that've waited all this time, but it's not ready yet, so I'll hold off from any more info for now. I'd like to present it as full as possible.



Batch 3 Reanodizing: Pretty bad news, but with some good news. Basically no news from the anodizer since they received them early August. Honestly, I have no idea what they've been doing apart from giving me very low effort responses like "we are busy with a big order and will do yours after" etc. Ultimately, I decided about 1.5 weeks ago to just give up, and try and get the parts back. I know somewhere else I can take them now, so if I could at least get the parts back, that'd be much better than having to remanufacture the parts all over again. They've just verbally agreed to send the parts back as it isn't "done" yet, whatever that means. Hoping I can get the physical parts back and deal with the finishing afterwards. Will update if/when I receive the parts back. I try to keep emotion out of these updates but this has been pretty defeating to me, but I'm determined to see it through. Thank you again to those that have been patient throughout, it really does mean a lot.

Batch 4: Remanufacturing has been mostly successful, about 80% are ready, but the others need redoing again. I've asked how long these should take and whether it's possible to just ship the good boards + wrist rests to me for now.

Batch 3 Reanodizing: Not good news on the reanodizing front. I had some raw cases anodized by the anodizer I was planning on using, but to keep it brief, they turned out terrible - pictures below. As mentioned, these were supplied raw, and the simple request of silver AKA clear was made. Dents, scratches, patchiness, etc. Regardless of the quality, they would only be able to anodize in preset colors & finishes, and none were close to the Blue Gray of this project.

Summing things up, I've reached out to five anodizers - three said they wouldn't be able to guarantee better, one ghosted, and the final one that actually anodized something couldn't put out close to an acceptable quality. On top of these, the manufacturer that I've used reliability for the past few years cannot get closer, and changing manufacturers is why we're here (and to me, a pointless misadventure both with time & money). I hate that it's this way, but I feel like I've exhausted all my options.

To move forward, first I will ship all the kits out so that owners can see the exact anodizing mismatch themselves. I'll then start conversations with everyone involved, and gather opinions on what the best solution is for everyone. I'd like to come out of this with everyone as satisfied as they can be given the circumstances. I believe this is the best solution, but ultimately I'll listen to everyone and do my best. If you want to reach out sooner and start talking, feel free to, however I'd like to get everything delivered so proper judgement can be made before taking any action.

I'll send the shipping form tonight and start collecting that information. Shipping will be with DHL, and I won't charge anyone affected by the anodizing mismatch. I'll start assembling units, sorting parts, generally just prepare to start shipping again throughout this month, with the aim of beginning shipping towards the end of the month. Please note I currently don't have my car therefore can't get to the office, but should have it by the end of this week. I have an employee helping out with fulfilment, so it will be completed much quicker than previous batches.

I'm deeply sorry it's come to this.

Batch 4: 60% of the shipment arrived today, I should have the other 40% tomorrow. Unfortunately these were shipped to my apartment, and not the office, so I have to transport them over. As stated above, I don't have my car right now, but should by the end of the week. Along with the remaining kits from Batch 3, I'll start preparing to ship these throughout this month, with the aim of beginning shipping towards the end of the month. I'll be sending the shipping form tonight.


Finally, apologies at how overdue this update is. I truly appreciate everyone's patience in the late stages of this.

Seconding this. Black would've been my pick if blue grey wasn't available. So if getting them done in a different finish is an option, I might be interested.

Though I'll wait until I receive my unit to see how bad the color mismatch actually is. If it's not that bad, I'll probably just leave it as is.

Going to have to say no - I have no path to reanodize units, and reproducting units will just lead to more trouble. I believe the design plays a large part in the anodizing issues, as the top piece is the same thickness all round, whereas the bottom piece is very short at the front, and tall at the back.

I have no problem if people want to perhaps transfer to a 380 (or another recent project [Valhalla, 378, X60 V2]), not sure if that's of interest to anyone as they're very different projects.

I believe I recall that based on naming convention, the 380 would also be a TKL. If so, I would consider transferring to this project. Do you have any sense when that would be launched? I haven't seen an IC yet so I assume it is still quite far in the future. If we do that, what happens to our 220, do we have to accept the current ano or lack thereof? Would also be nice for any 280 transfers to get some sort of limited edition 380.

Right now, I'd say May start with very roughly end of year delivery. That'll probably change, but will give you some idea.

Regarding 220, you'd just get that as noted above, as there is no guarantee I will do a "320".

Happy to do a limited edition :)

Roughly speaking, specifiation of 380 is:
Layout is fixed full Left Shift, full Backspace, ANSI Enter, full Right Shift, Tsangan bottom row, with options of full or stepped Caps Lock. The biggest change will be the F13 key.

Colors will probably be Blue Gray, Silver, and perhaps Pink. If you guys wanted different from those colors then happy to discuss.

I'd be interested in a limited edition 380. Hopefully we'll get some kind of priority :cool:

My tastes have since transitioned to F13 TKLs and it was the one pet peeve I had with the 280, but I'd still want the 280 regardless for a piece of Noxary history.

If it is possible to get a full brass or SS bottom 380 in Pink then I would transfer. Understand that may not be possible or worth your effort but that's the only "limited edition" change I would ask for. Maybe if others agree it may be worth your effort.

A lot more transfer interest than I expected - let me work it out and get back to y'all in a couple days. I realized I can't both let people transfer but also ship them the board first. I'll most likely begin conversations before shipping boards out. Seems like three scenarios are proving popular: receive BG board and get partial refund; receive BG board and also be able to purchase a limited edition 380; and full transfer to 380.

While I don't mean to speak for xondat, I'm guessing that second possibility means simply that you would be able to purchase some type of LE 380 - to have a spot, but not to get an extra board for free.

Leaning more towards a 380 transfer for me, but might also sway towards a limited edition spot depending on the spec.

Ok, that makes sense. If someone opts to receive their 280, are they reserved a LE 380 spot (pending payment), or do they have to participate in FCFS?

Second, my interest in a LE 380 would largely depend on whether a full brass or stainless bottom would be doable. I'm willing to pay more for such an option. There are multiple full bottom TKLs in IC right now (Phoenix, Eri, I think maybe others) so I would really like the option on the 380.

Roughly speaking, specifiation of 380 is:

  • DUAL V2 Mount (rather than top mount)
  • Screwless Exterior
  • Seamless Case Design
  • Brass Through Weight (basically identical to 280 but with new engraving)
  • 7° Base Angle (1 lower than 280)
  • 15.5mm Front Height ft. LEDGE
  • USB-C Daughterboard
  • Hyper Red (Aluminum) or 5mm Polycarbonate Plate
Layout is fixed full Left Shift, full Backspace, ANSI Enter, full Right Shift, Tsangan bottom row, with options of full or stepped Caps Lock. The biggest change will be the F13 key.

BG very nice, but If I had to choose a color, I would definitely pick Olive Green for the upcoming 380 if it were available. I missed 280 GB, and OG would have been my top choice with no hesitation.
Hope to see it proposed again among the color variants, or eventually, offer the possibility to get it by other means (LE, GC, ...).
I wish it were feasible.

I heard a lot of good stuff about 280, so I would probably want to keep my unit and prefer 380 LE spot. That said, I think it would be a fairer thing to give people spot+discount. Since 380 LE spot is essentially a gift for you rather than the customer, as you just get a guaranteed buyer. I know in the hobby it feels like a gift to have a spot for something limited, but spot+discount would be a win-win as you get your guaranteed customer(with less profit), and customer ends up being compensated for their trouble and get another nice board. Hopefully it doesn't sound greedy as that wasn't the intention and I wouldn't be unhappy with just the LE spot.

Regarding to colors, I would love to see gray or red.

I understand where you're coming from. I personally will forego a discount on the 280 if offered. It's part of the risk of joining a GB. And in this case, I don't see any evidence that Xondat has not worked hard to do things right.

I agree that Xondat did everything possible, and never claimed anything otherwise. But, I disagree that a business using GB model giving potential get out of jail free card. At this stage in the hobby, I think we are way past GBs being a hobbyist trying to get a board made(most of the time). That said, I understand these are still relatively small businesses and can't just replace stuff like Apple, hence was my suggestion of 380 LE spot with discount. That still gives them more customers, and previous customers end up happy.

I sincerely doubt there will be a shortage of people wanting spots in a limited GB.
Sometimes it feels impossible to say anything pro-consumer in this forum :) Surprisingly, most of the defending come from customers rather than vendors/designers/businesses.

I am aware of that... Probably even if they sell stuff for 2-3 times the price, they can still find customers I bet, but that doesn't mean they should. That wasn't my point. It is not a sustainable business to leave trail of unhappy customers behind, as eventually there will be a point that your business is going to fail. Also just to be clear, I am not saying this directed to Noxary or Xondat, since I don't even know yet what state my board is in. If photos were accurate, then I think the top/bottom difference is not bad at all, and I genuinely believe Xondat is trying to get things right as best as he can. So, I just made a suggestion to Xondat that I thought can make both parties happy, and in my opinion fairest solution. I can totally understand if it is not possible for variety of reasons, and wasn't talking about a significant discount either, just even something symbolic, potentially based on the state of your 280.

Hey just caught up with the thread. I too filled out my shipping form for the 280. Based on what I've gathered so far, I think I would personally lean toward receiving my blue gray 280 (I kind of want it as some sort of medal of honour at this point hahaha) and then also participate in some sort of 380 LE.

I admit it would be pretty cool to have a special colorway/configuration for original 280 backers. Nothing insane just something we could claim as our own would be rad :)

Hi all,

Sorry to spend so long on this but please give the relevant sections a read and let me know thoughts etc. Feedback from everyone is important at this stage as I try to close things out whilst satisfying as many people as I can. I'll give it at least a week to get opinions and make sure this is going in the correct direction.





BATCH 4 METEORITE GRAY/ULTRA VIOLET:

I've had chance to check them out and unfortunately it isn't good news. In short, the colors are just off. See the pictures:

(https://i.imgur.com/GNjlxcm.jpg)

XRF up top. This is what was expected from the Pantone. The Meteorite Gray 280 & 220, despite being ordered with the same Pantone, came out different.


(https://i.imgur.com/8EODQjm.jpg)

(https://i.imgur.com/NG43by1.jpg)

Anodizing color isn't perfectly matching in direct light.


(https://i.imgur.com/RYs7cNW.jpg)

The Ultra Violet 280 & 220, despite being ordered with the same Pantone, came out different.


I'll keep it simple and can expand later if requested - if you're due Meteorite Gray or Ultra Violet, please read the options below. Originally the options below were going to be just for Batch 3, but it'll also include Batch 4 now.

The color matching between the top & bottom halves of UV boards is better than Blue Gray, but still not perfect. I'll post some pictures on Wednesday.





MOVING FORWARD FOR THOSE THAT HAVEN'T RECEIVED A KEYBOARD YET:


To me there are three categories of people:
How each category could be handled:

Category 1: I'll get boards shipped out ASAP, and won't charge for shipping. I'd be fine with partially refunding ~$100 due to the anodizing issue.

Category 2: As above, will ship ASAP, and won't charge for shipping. Will listen to what sort of options people want with LE (such as brass base etc). It can't get too complex, but certainly able to accomdate some milder requests. Able to accomodate a slightly larger discount on this compared to the partial refund.

Category 3: Complete transfer to 380 LE. As mentioned in Cat 2, can accomodate some milder requests. Will make sure options chosen (such as plate/PCB quantity) line up as best as possible, no "value" should be lost. At least free shipping on the 380 LE, but not sure what else should be put on the table.

Pictures of the 380 prototype for those interested:

(https://i.imgur.com/ev4L381.jpg)

FYI this is a polished but not media-blasted prototype, with an aluminum weight. Actual production spec will be anodized with a media-blasted brass weight.



Please let me know what you think of these options. I'll finalize once there has been some discussion (in a minimum of a week), have a form sent out to everyone so they can choose how they want to move forward, and try and get everyone as happy as possible given the circumstances.

Regarding those asking about the shipping form, if you've done it, that's fine. You haven't commited to anything by filling it in :)

You get the 280, and you can also purchase a discounted 380 LE/Valhalla.

Also to be clear - all the 280s are one variant of the UV, all the 220s are the other variant. There are no matching pairs.

Looking forward to Wednesday's pics, but tentatively I'd wanna go with option 1 or 3 depending on what the 380 LE options end up looking like.
Yeah I've had my keycaps for my 280 for two years and they match the 220 pretty much exactly unfortunately. lol

To move forward, first I will ship all the kits out so that owners can see the exact anodizing mismatch themselves. I'll then start conversations with everyone involved, and gather opinions on what the best solution is for everyone. I'd like to come out of this with everyone as satisfied as they can be given the circumstances. I believe this is the best solution, but ultimately I'll listen to everyone and do my best. If you want to reach out sooner and start talking, feel free to, however I'd like to get everything delivered so proper judgement can be made before taking any action.

I'll send the shipping form tonight and start collecting that information. Shipping will be with DHL, and I won't charge anyone affected by the anodizing mismatch. I'll start assembling units, sorting parts, generally just prepare to start shipping again throughout this month, with the aim of beginning shipping towards the end of the month. Please note I currently don't have my car therefore can't get to the office, but should have it by the end of this week. I have an employee helping out with fulfilment, so it will be completed much quicker than previous batches.

What exactly is the hold up here? I know you came up with your 3 different options for unit owners, but why hasn't any actual action been taken yet? When can we expect to receive our units as you said a month and a half ago?

Going to have to say no - I have no path to reanodize units, and reproducting units will just lead to more trouble. I believe the design plays a large part in the anodizing issues, as the top piece is the same thickness all round, whereas the bottom piece is very short at the front, and tall at the back.

I have no problem if people want to perhaps transfer to a 380 (or another recent project [Valhalla, 378, X60 V2]), not sure if that's of interest to anyone as they're very different projects.

A lot more transfer interest than I expected - let me work it out and get back to y'all in a couple days. I realized I can't both let people transfer but also ship them the board first. I'll most likely begin conversations before shipping boards out. Seems like three scenarios are proving popular: receive BG board and get partial refund; receive BG board and also be able to purchase a limited edition 380; and full transfer to 380.

And then the big update: https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=95660.msg3109632#msg3109632

Summed up, I hinted that people could transfer projects, and that got a lot more interest than I anticipated, such that I had to change the path to fulfilment to allow people to switch.

I've heard a lot of opinions, and seems like everyone is happy with the options, I'm currently planning out the best way to make this a seamless process for everyone, and hope to get the form out by Sunday :) I'm sorry to take so long on this, but I believe it's imperative that I get this correct for everyone.

Edit: I know you have put a lot of effort into this so please don't think I am implying you aren't doing enough.

The big update has everything to do with Blue Gray, sorry that wasn't obvious enough.

Please, please read this section, but TLDR is that if you haven't received a board, you will have a choice to make, which is why no "actual action" (I assume implying shipping) has happened.

MOVING FORWARD FOR THOSE THAT HAVEN'T RECEIVED A KEYBOARD YET:


To me there are three categories of people:
  • Want 280 regardless of anodizing, no interest in 380 LE whatsoever
  • Want 280 regardless of anodizing, interested in a 380 LE (or another Noxary board such as Valhalla)
  • Do not want 280, would like full transfer to 380 LE
How each category could be handled:

Category 1: I'll get boards shipped out ASAP, and won't charge for shipping. I'd be fine with partially refunding ~$100 due to the anodizing issue.

Category 2: As above, will ship ASAP, and won't charge for shipping. Will listen to what sort of options people want with LE (such as brass base etc). It can't get too complex, but certainly able to accomdate some milder requests. Able to accomodate a slightly larger discount on this compared to the partial refund.

Category 3: Complete transfer to 380 LE. As mentioned in Cat 2, can accomodate some milder requests. Will make sure options chosen (such as plate/PCB quantity) line up as best as possible, no "value" should be lost. At least free shipping on the 380 LE, but not sure what else should be put on the table.

Pictures of the 380 prototype for those interested:

FYI this is a polished but not media-blasted prototype, with an aluminum weight. Actual production spec will be anodized with a media-blasted brass weight.



Please let me know what you think of these options. I'll finalize once there has been some discussion (in a minimum of a week), have a form sent out to everyone so they can choose how they want to move forward, and try and get everyone as happy as possible given the circumstances.

Regarding those asking about the shipping form, if you've done it, that's fine. You haven't commited to anything by filling it in :)

xondat when I last spoke to you, I was under the assumption that I'm not eligible for any of these options due to my board being Silver (Originally Pink but we agreed to have it reanodised due to colour mismatch.) Has that since changed? And if not when can I expect my board to be shipped as I never heard back from you when we last spoke.

Not had everyone reply yet, but I'm happy to start moving forward, had about 80% so far (with a good boost coming through reminders a couple weeks ago). Going to start preparing to ship, sorting kits etc. and just generally making sure everything is ready for Options 1/2. Will make sure discount codes are sent out prior to XRF 2022 as I know some are interested in that. Option 3 will be completed once all the kits are shipped out as each transfer is quite personal.


Any update on when we can expect 280 blue grey shipping invoices?

There won't be any, I'll cover this cost. Please make sure you've filled in the shipping form, I believe it's been sent to everyone. If you haven't received it in your DMs, LMK.

220 got super complex with the 280 issues, as some people want to transfer, some only want to keep 280 etc. I'll tackle those that have only purchased a 220 first, make sure these are shipped soon. After that will begin processing through the joint orders.

Wrist rests will be shipped separately from both 280 and 220. WRs will be treated the same as 220, those that are just waiting for that will be sent first etc.

I gave up with the boxes from my previous supplier, communication was piss poor and it was still unclear on the situation many weeks later.

I've contacted a new supplier, got a quote, samples, and artwork outlines all within a week. They've quoted 4-5 weeks from art approval, which I plan to submit this week. Pics below of the samples I received. Smaller box is for plates/PCBs etc. Bigger box for kit.

https://www.amazon.co.uk/BOXES-SHIPPING/s?k=BOXES+FOR+SHIPPING

Just grab whatever fits, throw the board in there and ship em out. I'm gonna trash the box 3.14 seconds after unpacking it anyways. We've been waiting 4 years or something and you're adding another month for custom boxes I don't even know what to say anymore.

I want to get these shipped safely to everyone, so the boxes have to fit well. If sizes required already existed, then trust me, I would’ve bought them already. MOQ is 500 so I wanted to get some very basic artwork done as the size is used among other kits,, but I’ll skip that to speed things up, it’s a fair point so thank you.

Thank you for the swift response. In my experience, using cumble paper to fill whatever void is left is more than sufficient, but I'll concede that point if you feel it necessary, that's your call. Thank you for dropping the artwork to save some weeks.

It's probably sufficient, but I don't really want to sway away from a reliable packing method I've had, just to save a couple weeks. In the long run, to me it isn't worth it.

I asked about the artwork and they said it won't save much time at all, maybe a day or so. As each box is cut then immediately printed on, not all of them cut, then all of them printed. I'll go ahead with the (very basic) artwork as planned, hope everyone understands why. It is literally just a Noxary pink box with the icon logo on it :)

Apologies for the lack of updates, unfortuntely this box manufacturer has been a pain in the ass. I never knew it would be so complicated, but ultimately it all falls on me for not having this together sooner, and I can only apologize for that again.

Artwork was submitted May 12th, confirmed on May 19th, and paid on May 20th. We agreed to produce "swatch of the Pantone colour printed onto the material of your board" as this would only take a few days, which I received on May 24th. This color was incorrect, and they wouldn't let production go ahead without myself seeing the correct color (as stated May 27th). A new sample was produced and sent, however I never received this, and after the long bank (public) holiday, they asked June 6th if I ever received it (no I didn't). I suggested to send another one on June 10th after nothing turned up. June 15th - new swatches arrived of the incorrect color again. June 20th they reply saying sorry, we'll send another. June 22nd I finally receive the correct color, which I approve the same hour, as I just want production to begin ASAP. June 30th they gave me the date of delivery as August 12th. :confused:

In retrospect, I would absolutely say f*ck the color, but I always believed it was just close to being sorted out, hence why I kept letting myself be led on. Sadly just a lot of wasted time.

With hindsight, it's a brilliant comment. Utter failure on my side.


Someone reached out today and recommended a place they've used. I placed an order because 6 weeks is a p*ss take, they've given me an ETA of the 12th. Just plain white boxes. Will post when those are dispatched to me.

Boxes arrived, boards have been packed, and 40% of remaining boards have been collected.

My assistant will continue packing & labelling throughout the next 10 days as I'm out of country. I'll organize a collection when I'm back (27-29th).

Wrist rests will also be shipping, I'll reach out to those that purchased, and collect up to date addresses.

Any concerns, please DM, and I'll reply as soon as I can.

Got my UV 280 in the mail today! The color is a -lot- better than I anticipated, based on the recent news/photos of colors being incorrect. Looks esp nice with warm lighting. Hopefully I can find time to build it sometime soon.

got my UV build together. the color actually turned out dope! but my order was missing two sets of stabs and my PMs about it have gone unanswered (not dope :'(). bummer to see this GB tripped up at the finish line after xondat clearly worked hard to make the best of a bad situation.

Most boards (280 & 220) & accessories are now ready, just need to put them in boxes, seal, and label. Expecting another batch to go out next week. Still waiting on replies from quite a few people so will be chasing (for up to date addresses, resolution forms, or general order questions).

Wrist rests will start being sent as well - if you've purchased one but haven't received an email asking for updated shipping address, please let me know. If you have the email, please reply.

I'll be doing another batch of partial refunds over the weekend.

If you selected Option 3, I'll reach out when it's relevant as I've seen what people have picked. If you've changed your mind regarding which transfer you're interested in, redo the form or contact me.

I've messaged all outstanding receiving buyers asking for new address (for both 280 & 220). Please fill out the form in your GEEKHACK DMs.

I have 9 buyers that've not completed a resolution form, and I'll be chasing them this week via GH DMs & EMAIL.

All wrist rests are packed, and those that've replied to my EMAIL with their shipping address have had labels printed. These will be collected off this week. Please check & reply to your email.

All partial refunds & discount codes have been sent for those that chose Option 1/2. I need to confirm with a few people about their PayPal email address, so expect a GEEKHACK DM shortly.

Just got my blue gray delivered! Thanks xondat for the crazy fast shipping. Made it to socal in just 2 days. The color matching is way better than I expected too. I barely notice a difference. Was originally planning on getting it cerakoted, but definitely not needed here.

Thanks again, happy to finally have this board in my hands :D

I received my 280. Thanks for fulfilling my WKL request. The color matching issue does not really bother me. There was a small chip in the top left ano but at this point I am just glad to have the board. Hopefully can get it built soon.

When I asked status about replacement for my B (C?) stock unit, you said "you have a board, relax", which I am still waiting for replacement mind you, a month later mentioning it. So, you have other boards to type on right? Maybe relax, and wait him to ship these out.

 :D Not salty at all actually, but it is a little disappointing to see people preventing customers from asking for their rights, which seems to be happening quite a lot in the hobby. Many people who voice their issues met with dismissive comments like his and yours now. Interestingly, it is mostly not by the designers/vendors, rather by the other customers, which is surprising. On a positive note, I am excited for eventually getting my replacement and trying out 5mm pc for the first time.

It's Top mount. Just build the board and whenever he ships your replacement top just change it over.

Not even sure where you are getting the conclusion that I am not relax or raging... Nowhere in my messages I said rest of them shouldn't be shipped. If you ask me they should have been shipped by now or at least given a status update. Ideally some customers' issues shouldn't block every other thing in a business.

I am aware it is a top mount and I have already built the pcb. Technically the board is not mine, so I don't want to risk causing any other damages etc. by using it. I just want to return it as I have gotten it.

Pretty much done if I'm allowed to say so.

I've replied to all GH DMs I could find. If you're still waiting on a response, please send me a NEW MESSAGE outside of any current message thread. Any new concerns/queries, feel free to reach out.

Re TRANSFERS: I will be in touch shortly to organize these further. I haven't done much until now as most asked for designs that are still a ways out.

Re 380 LE: For those that are interested, I will start gathering info to publish somewhere, and also a place to collect info on what people want (engravings, design tweaks etc). 380 is coming up soon so will run alongside that.

Hi Xondat,

I have sent you a DM about my 280 order about a week or two ago and it is related to a transfer. I did not get any reply. If that is already noted or taken care of, I just want to confirm that. If it will be taken care of later, can you please confirm that in case? thanks in advance.

Category 3: Complete transfer to 380 LE. As mentioned in Cat 2, can accomodate some milder requests. Will make sure options chosen (such as plate/PCB quantity) line up as best as possible, no "value" should be lost. At least free shipping on the 380 LE, but not sure what else should be put on the table.
