Post by: RevoTeam on Sat, 15 July 2017, 01:09:47
Hi,guys It's time to think about what's to do next as RJ is in nearly finish. This time i am bringing options with 60% 80% and 100% custom kits.
You guys will be determine what's revo doing next. This is a google form for the poll of the project in the end of this thread. Please vote for your favorite boards.
Now,let's start from 60%
1. One-body 60 case with the new kind of finish on the surface.
This is something that have a pottery coating.As you can see from the picture the color is really bright. This using alu 6063 and it weight around 1.3 kg

2, Code name:Corgi (As factory manger Mr.Lu love dogs,so most of the project code names are dog names).
This is something we have planed over a year now. We have this GB in April 2016 but it never come through.Hopefully it can be done this time. There is only CAD files now.

Full Albums here: http://imgur.com/a/NrKrm
The sample you see in this Album is what is it like in 2016 and we did made some design change.
Now moving to 80%
3, Code name: Mystery Tenkeyless
 This one have a very interesting buy before. No buyer know what this board will looks like before shipping it out. So it's called Mytery. This is classic design so maybe some ppl will like it.

100%

I like the mystery TKL, but i dont like the random element of it. Any chance youd run that - but allowing us to pick colors etc. Random is fine, but i dont think people want to spend hundreds of dollars and end up with a color theyre not excited about.

color can be chosen. They just dont know what it looks like.Anyway,if i run it again,there will be nothing mystery about it anymore.

I haven't been looking for an 1800, but that looks superb. I assume it is with a fixed angle like the other cases?

There are 7 of them. I am not sure which one you referring to. 100% could be 350 usd+ They are big and heavy and hard to anode.

DAYUMMMMMM DAT FIRST ONE IS SEXY AF. pottery coating 60% case
Title: Re: Revo next project(poll inside)
Post by: smittysteve on Sat, 15 July 2017, 08:38:02
Raymond, these are all gorgeous boards!!!

I'm a sucker for 1800s, so really pulling for that. LOVE the chamfer on the top case... any chance that could get the cool surface finish of the one-body 60%? :) I would sell off whatever boards/ organs/ etc are necessary to buy that if so.

Edit: also- more and perhaps some funky colors on the 1800, please. Mix and match two-tones.  :thumb:

Also, the "something mystery" limited to five boards. Yes please. Is that going to happen? (It wasn't a voting choice on form)

You are the best!

How does the 60% one-body case support the usual 60% PCBs?

I really wish to see a HHKB-style 40% keyboard. Much like JD45 but with better case design. Like even bezel, sloped side profile, etc.

Also, Samoye is more of a spelling in Pinyin. Samoyed comes with a 'd'.

Thanks,my man. we can do pottery coating on everything,just not sure how people like it...The color is quite different from anode colors. Some says it looks like a painted plastic case rather than a alu case. However it does have a lot of colors and it can be done in almost every colors. We can chose it from any kind of colors chips.
About the mystery board i will show it in a couple of days. It's limited to 5 now,we'll try to make it 10 at best. ;D

Sure man, i will think about doing 40% keyboards.

The one-body case support most of the 60 PCBs. I have tried GH60,Bface,Nerd 60. I dont have a zeal but i think it will fit.

Yeah, the pottery coating is quite interesting. I have looked at it a couple of times today on bigger screens than my phone and went back and forth on how much I like it. It's different that's for sure, and generally, different is good. :) I think I really like it, but can also see where it looks a little like plastic.

Do you like the pottery coating compared with anodized, Raymond? Doubt and of us have ever seen a board finished like that.

Also, just my opinion, but the 1800 could use a bit more snazzy weight if that gets run. For some reason that one is a bit less exciting than the Corgi/ Mystery TKL weights.

Overall though, this is really great work. Never seen an IC quite like this. Thank you for bringing so many amazing boards to us super-nerds!!  :thumb:

It actually looks really cool in person. It's smooth when you touch it and i like it. I am just not so sure how other people like it.That's why i ask to do a one-body 60% case. This way anyone interested could try it with the cheapest price.And everyone could use a 60%...It's fun to watch and it's a great present for wife/girlfriend/daughter. Haha.
If 1800 is going to happen i will have the weight changed. Like Corgi or Mystery TKL. How about that!
I bring IC like this mainly because i dont know what to do next and i like suggestions so i can change the OG design to make it better. I really appreciate everyone's input! :thumb: :thumb: :thumb:

That would be a game changer.
Potter finish on plate is not likely to happen because the pottery layer it too thick for a plate...

I think I still prefer the Samoyed but that's some good **** right there. Damn.
Samoyed is winning at this point. And i will only make dolch 1800 for 5 kits(10 tops). Factory are not willing to do it cause the it's too complex

Sign me up for Dolch 1800 Please Mr.Revo  :'(

Some suggestions i got for samoyed.
1,To add an acrylic layer for the underglow. This is something i will do for sure, i'll try to find a way to make it work like RJ. You can have it or not. All depend on how you like it.
2,To do a inlaid REVO logo,like Dr.D  This a good idea how do you guys feel about it?
3,Make a better weight.  Yes, i am aware that the weight design is very normal.I'll think of something...
4,Make a impact 1800. This maybe another project. Right now i am gonna stuck with Samoyed.
5,White microarc finish on samoyed.  Well i can't do a really white micro finish on anything. It's more like a beige to me... So if you guys want a pure white i suggest we do it pottery coating.

Well that's for now. If you still have any suggestion or something you don't like you can post here or pm me or write in the form...I am always open to new ideas.

Thanks for adding some options here and involving us a bit, Raymond, love it.

To save folks digging through the old thread, here are some pics of the Dr. D with inlaid logo "D." Sorry, these are from when I unboxed the board, but should show the idea Raymond mentioned.

Hope that helps. I personally love the way this came out on Dr. D and would be very pro doing this with the Revo text on front of Samoyed if indeed that's the winner in the polls for the next board out of the gate.  :thumb:

1. Yes I'd like underglow so thank you for including it!
2. I like the idea of a logo but most people seem to not be super keen on branding like that - maybe having it on the weight or something like that instead might make more people happy.
3. I'd like a weight of course.
4. Happy you're "stuck" with Samoyed!
5. I'd love a pure white finish. No one ever does that and I really want one super badly, all my boards are black (except my beige 660C and 980C) so if there's any way you can do it in white I'm over the moon. If not, then beige will do.

Love your feedback, Thanks.
The pure white can be done. Just look at the one-body 60% case. It' will be like that. But that is too white and it's hard to pair keycaps. And it's not anode so maybe i'll have 2 kind of version of it. One using pottery finish,one using normal anode.
As for the logo,i know people may not like it. But i think i'll put it there anyway. It will be flush. You'll see. I know i can't make everybody happy but it will stand out, i am sure of it.
There is a weight in it already but i think i can do better about it. Just need more time to think about it.... :D :D :D

Can't seem to find the one-body 60% case picture, would you mind linking it please?

I agree though, it's a bit hard to pair keycaps but it's a very exotic look, no one ever does white with alu cases etc since it's impossible to anode it right? Would have to powder coat, micro arc oxidise or pottery finish like you're planning correct? That's what I've heard at least, I don't know much about the subject!

As long as it doesn't look almost silver/beige like some cases do even though they're described as "white" then I'm very happy.

I have no doubt you'll figure out a way to handle the logo and weight in a classy way, very excited to see this project develop further!

Edit: oh you meant like the 1st case in the OP style of pottery coating not the colour, thought you meant you had pictures of it with white colour somewhere else, my bad!

Yep, white colour like the first case. You'll have to excuse me for my English, sometimes i got people confused. Haha

I can assure you it's a pure white not silver-ish or grey-ish color. But it's also has to be done by the pottery coating.   The surface is  smoother than normal Anode Aluminum. We'll have to see how people like it.

If you brought a pure white one. You'll have to find a keyset that is really bright and have 1800 support. Is there many options out there?

I love the finish on the 1st case, looks very nice. Your English is good don't worry haha

Glad to hear it won't be silver, smoother surface sounds interesting!

Regarding key sets I think it will depend, I think more muted and pastel key sets will look very nice on a white case - for example GMK Muted, 9009, Plum, the upcoming Necro, etc. Also XDA sets like Canvas, Milestone and Evangs' project for 8 Bit XDA might also look very nice. I think darker colours will also fit in some cases, would have to see some renders with some colourful sets on white case!

3. Yes
4. Samoyed +1. Love the other 1800 in your pics as well.
5. I like the idea of a pure white but dislike the glossy/pottery finish look. I would need to see a few good examples/pics to sway me one way or the other.

IMO the Revo logo draws my eye a bit too much due to the rule of thirds. The hefty build quality/anode and beveled edges are enough to distinguish the design. IMO Less is more. Maybe shrink the debossed Revo logo down a bit and place it on the beveled edge.

Yeah, fair enough. The design and quality definitely distinguish this bad boy as you said. The inlaid D on the Dr. was just so well done, I'd vote for that as an option on the Samoyed if the Revo logo stays where it is (it was only optional on Dr. D as well).

I definitely don't want ANY acrylic on high end boards, so it being an add-on sounds perfect, I for one won't add it on =p

With regards to inlaid logo, like on Mekanisk? A weight design improvement does sound great, just keep it large for that gucci effect.

Some points which i find are really important for a custom keyboard.
- Do not enforce led lighting. Say no acryllic pieces or defusors. If somody likes rgb, he can always instal leds in switches.
- No visible lines where top piece and bottom piece come together. These lines must be hidden. For example on Duck's keyboards you can see these lines only if you flip keyboard. The only exception is the Dr.D where it makes sense with middle piece.

1) I like the acrylic diffuser. It's why I got in for MIRA.

2) I'd prefer an engraved logo a la TGR/LZ-SE.

3) Nothing wrong with good ol' bar weight.

4) Nah, no need for impact 1800.

5) Personally not a fan of microarc. It's too fragile for my liking. Then again, I'll probably buy silver anyway, so what do I know.

Some suggestions i got for samoyed.
1,To add an acrylic layer for the underglow. This is something i will do for sure, i'll try to find a way to make it work like RJ. You can have it or not. All depend on how you like it.
2,To do a inlaid REVO logo,like Dr.D  This a good idea how do you guys feel about it?
3,Make a better weight.  Yes, i am aware that the weight design is very normal.I'll think of something...
4,Make a impact 1800. This maybe another project. Right now i am gonna stuck with Samoyed.
5,White microarc finish on samoyed.  Well i can't do a really white micro finish on anything. It's more like a beige to me... So if you guys want a pure white i suggest we do it pottery coating.

Well that's for now. If you still have any suggestion or something you don't like you can post here or pm me or write in the form...I am always open to new ideas.

1) I like the acrylic diffuser. It's why I got in for MIRA.

2) I'd prefer an engraved logo a la TGR/LZ-SE.

3) Nothing wrong with good ol' bar weight.

4) Nah, no need for impact 1800.

5) Personally not a fan of microarc. It's too fragile for my liking. Then again, I'll probably buy silver anyway, so what do I know.

Silver is the best.  :p :p :p And i agree everything you said

For Corgi, what colors are being considered?


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Well. look RJ's color. It will be something like that...

Got it, thanks for the reply. Would you consider additional colors? Options like green or purple would be great (between those two, I'd personally vote for purple).

Hoping to continue to see some great case designs from you; quite the portfolio of ideas so far.

additional colors? yes. Purple? Not at the moment. Trust me you dont want a purple board....

Some points which i find are really important for a custom keyboard.
- Do not enforce led lighting. Say no acryllic pieces or defusors. If somody likes rgb, he can always instal leds in switches.
- No visible lines where top piece and bottom piece come together. These lines must be hidden. For example on Duck's keyboards you can see these lines only if you flip keyboard. The only exception is the Dr.D where it makes sense with middle piece.
I totally agree with no line in between top and bottom pieces.

Personally i dont use any leds. And every design have no acrylic layer in the first place. But i will add a removable layer every time people ask for it. Some may love it...Just trying to make everyone happy. Haha ;D ;D ;D

Thanks sir. However people are more into mystery TKL now. Just a few vote for Dr.D R2....
All your TKL designs are amazing! I also voted for Mystery! Dr.D is cool for different color middle and top layers!

Alaska should get the go ahead.  There are hardly any 100% custom boards.

The only ones I know of are Kaliet, GON (doesn't really count), Matrix10 - only 20 made :(, Winkeyless (Acrylic only).  I think that is it.

Well,it's not hard to support it but we don't like it. Our boards used to be switch top removable but now there's none of them support that. It's just not that good.Have a lot of problems.I guess you have to find time to desolder your Dr.D...Sad...Still the plate is good enough for now. Not likely to make any change.

I prefer a much more subtle "Revo" logo, than the flashy one in that image. The makers mark should definitely be on there, but cyan and screaming can be a tad bit much =p

Shouldn't wobble if done correctly. To wobble the switch itself would actually be having to wobble/bend

There's not really a downside to switch top removable or problems I can think of, I won't purchase a board unless the plate allows for switch top opening. My TX-CP and TX1800 all support switch top opening and no problems what so ever.

Ours will make the switch askew and it won't open easily and it's too hard to put it back inside. Or maybe we couldn't make it right so right now all our design don't support switch top removable. ;D ;D ; Btw, alu plate is soft it could be bend a little if pushed too hard.Not ideal for switch top remove,maybe ss can be better.

If I would have one small suggestion for team Revo though, is it possible to move the branding to a discrete place like on the bottom of the board or on one of the sides (or or perhaps inside, engraved onto the weight or something? I completely understand the desire to have your brand recognition and putting your work out there for people to see, but I know that for the most part I would prefer my keyboards to look very clean and minimal, and branding usually gets in the way and distracts from the clean lines of the product.

Let me know what you think  ;)

the problem is i have to put the logo somewhere. it's not good to put it on the weight and i really can't think of anywhere great. What i want is change it to inlaid logo so if you really dont want it to stand out you can chose the same color for it.

Some suggestions i got for samoyed.
1,To add an acrylic layer for the underglow. This is something i will do for sure, i'll try to find a way to make it work like RJ. You can have it or not. All depend on how you like it.
2,To do a inlaid REVO logo,like Dr.D  This a good idea how do you guys feel about it?
3,Make a better weight.  Yes, i am aware that the weight design is very normal.I'll think of something...
4,Make a impact 1800. This maybe another project. Right now i am gonna stuck with Samoyed.
5,White microarc finish on samoyed.  Well i can't do a really white micro finish on anything. It's more like a beige to me... So if you guys want a pure white i suggest we do it pottery coating.

Well that's for now. If you still have any suggestion or something you don't like you can post here or pm me or write in the form...I am always open to new ideas.

One thing I would love to see is some backward compatibility. I hope the new Dr.D R2 can have many new stuff on it, while the plate and PCB can be compatible with R1 so I can get a new pcb and switch plate and made some upgrade on the R1

Will you be running 2 gbs or did you scrap the 1800? Remember you saying it looked like youd be going with that and was interested in possibly going in for my first 1800 layout/any mech keyboard with a num pad ever. Just wondering :)
Will run at least 2 GBs. so no worries. 1800 will come,just later.

I'm super excited about these.
It's awesome to see something different to the usual anodizing.
I'm a little concerned about chipping the finish, but we'll see how it goes.

I picked up a pink to pair with Grand Budapest (which I think is going to look amazing).
I also picked up the blue which I think I'm going pair with Dasher.

Got a sample from Raymond today! What a beast. The new glossy finish is smooth and vibrant. Typing also sounds substantial as you would expect from a thick high profile case. Now looking for a palm rest for the first time...

Which option is this guy?

Same here. It never seems like you missed much UNTIL the photos start flooding in. Then it's like FFFFFFFFF....

I was very accustomed to the plastic KUL ES-87 ergoclear feel, but now I've got a taste for the KBD75 + lubed linears. The all metal body feels much more premium :)

I can't decide on my next switch though. Very hard.

Saturated sunny or lemon yellow perhaps? I hardly see any yellow cases and this would be the only thing to pull Nautilus out of my originally intended wood case.

Some suggestions i got for samoyed.
1,To add an acrylic layer for the underglow. This is something i will do for sure, i'll try to find a way to make it work like RJ. You can have it or not. All depend on how you like it.
2,To do a inlaid REVO logo,like Dr.D  This a good idea how do you guys feel about it?
3,Make a better weight.  Yes, i am aware that the weight design is very normal.I'll think of something...
4,Make a impact 1800. This maybe another project. Right now i am gonna stuck with Samoyed.
5,White microarc finish on samoyed.  Well i can't do a really white micro finish on anything. It's more like a beige to me... So if you guys want a pure white i suggest we do it pottery coating.

Well that's for now. If you still have any suggestion or something you don't like you can post here or pm me or write in the form...I am always open to new ideas.

Dr.D logo pls!!!!!

the 1800 looks fantastic.  I really don't like the brass/gold on it, so I vote no on the inlay.  Stamp/embossed logo is fine.  I also wish the plate for the NCR indicators was the same color as the board :)

What is the downside of switch top removable? I can think of wobbling.

Ours will make the switch askew and it won't open easily and it's too hard to put it back inside. Or maybe we couldn't make it right so right now all our design don't support switch top removable. ;D ;D ; Btw, alu plate is soft it could be bend a little if pushed too hard.Not ideal for switch top remove,maybe ss can be better.

Carbon fiber plate loves the switch removal . I have one on my zz96 and it is tits. sturdy switches and no issues coming in or out..

Awesome job with the Revo One 60% one piece case.  The pottery coating looks and feels amazing  :thumb:

That looks really nice. I wish they had made the gap smaller though.

Can you notice the lack of support in the middle? Or does the plate cover that up pretty well?

It does have a gap in the front relative to the back.  When the pcb sets into place with the case/usb port it forces you to have the off alignment with the front and back gaps.  I would say that it doesn't look as bad compared to the cheap Aliexpress 60% case because the side gaps are even and reasonably tight (the cheap Alexpress case has uneven mounting and uneven gaps).  The difference between the front and back gaps are only noticeable when you look directly down at it from overhead and because it's a higher end case it doesn't seem like a big deal.  My IBM model F XT has a huge gap on the left side of the case and I honestly never bothered to try and fix it because the build quality as a whole is so nice that it doesn't seem to detract.

I used a steel plate for this build and don't notice any flex in the middle at all.  Not sure about PC or aluminum though.

Took another shot from the side.  The finish has a smooth glass like feel.  Would love to see more colors roll out Raymond  ;)

If it’s only like that in the front it’s not so bad. It was hard to tell with the perspective and shadows.

I hope they do some bright colors next time. I’d love a nice neon pink for laser. Or a lime green.

My sample case and my Sentraq PCB have the problem of matching the screw positions. So it used to have some uneven gaps. Now I'm just leaving some screws out so it fits evenly. Hope this is just an isolated case.

I only have screws between tab/q and right brace/delete (just put them both in a bit loose and adjust the pcb before tightening down).  You don't need all of the screws in for a secure connection.

Same here for my Zeal60 R2, there is some clearance issue around the USB port and also the left most and right most screw do not fit well...

Just don't ship with Oco no matter what. Even after the standard long ass GB delays Oco still hasn't finished shipping Revo HHKB orders.
Original ship date: July 2017
Raymond ship date: September 2017
Oco: Might ship sometime in 2018... No ****ing idea since they don't respond to emails
What the ****.. Either Raymond lied about the boards being finished in September (2+ months behind schedule) or for some reason it takes longer than 4 months to send something from China -> US?

Hi Raymond. Since you aren't replying to PM's. Any idea what is going on with the remaining Revo HHKB orders?

@Raymond : Also at this point I'm starting to forget why I even ordered my boards and I'm starting to lose interest. Is there a point at which I can request a refund or is the transaction over since you already have my money? For example if I still don't have my boards 1 year after paying for them may I request a refund?

Future Revo GB participants: A shipment of Revo HHKB's were lost in transit from China to Originative Co. Neither company wants to take responsibility for this. This appears to have happened weeks/months ago and no one told us. Raymond is not responding to GeekHack messages or email. If you're curious you can read about it more here: https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=88750.1050

Again, Revo Team and Originative Co lost our boards and they are refusing to give either refunds or a plan for how to handle the situation.

Just a warning for potential Revo GB participants.

Also just wanted to mention that since delays are guaranteed to happen in any GB's here by the time shipping happens it is way too late to open a PayPal dispute if the GB runner loses or sends you a damaged board (several of Revo HHKB's went out with scratches btw).

Wasn't there massive quality issues with Revo 60%? Furthermore, trust issues regarding compensation for lost shipment for people orders..?

Trying to figure out why anyone would want to buy from Revo without a response to these issues...

Post by: Rumblehotep on Wed, 24 January 2018, 22:42:14
I'm miffed I didn't get feet or screws, some of the screw locations are tricky to tighten and some boards need tape to not short out, but I do love typing with the Revo One case itself.
The RJ situation and lack of communication there is far more concerning.
I was psyched waiting for the Samoye but other things have poached my interest since then, maybe that will change once the gb pics start who knows

This to me is beyond, past the uncertainty stage for sure. Why anyone would even consider joining the group buy now without at least some acknowledgement or response is beyond me
