Hi,
The gray sidebar currently not available for this group buy, but we're working on make those color available for mass production.

We said:

Basically we're good to go at 10 sets

So here's some update on how 'good to go' we are right now:

Long bars, fresh off the milling machine:

Creating tracks for plates:

We aim for finish machining the first batch right before order closing date, fast enough for you guys right? 

I'm Bazh's partner (kinda obvious, but here it is), and we're serious at start-up a keyboard company

[bazh]

I'm sure he meant working partner...

[Photekq]

I'll definitely be getting in on this. I just need to decide on colours.

Beautiful work bazh & foggyflute!

Thank you! We're looking forward to receive your order.

[Steezus]

I'm definitely super excited about this, been watching the IC thread for a long time. Do you ever think there will be a Sky Blue option in the future? I don't really want to settle with a color that I'm "ok" with am dying for a sky blue option.

Noted, when green and purple available, sky blue will also available.

Awesome, thank you very much. That's definitely my number one pick and I'm sure Sifo's as well.

I'll jump on this when green is available!

I also have no money now.

I'm with this guy. Gotta have green as an option before I join.

If you do alps plate I will sure to join this gb or do you have any plan on making a tkl design?

[foggyflute]

We placed order on a few alps switches to test the alps plate, coming in next batch for sure.

OK then I will wait for the aps plate!
This case is really amazing I think I need to buy 2 but the cost are really crazy hehe

[lanyusea]

wondering when there will be the next round of GB?

I'd like to wait for the second batch if there will be more color options, and, it's not too far away...

Very soon...

UPDATE:

Changed a little bit on stands design: no more left and right, now they're identical, cut through to reduce weight, better joints with plates for future mix n match with multi weaven housings

That looks great. It looks like it slides in together with the plate to form a tight bond?

Yes it is! in that way the stands will be held in place by the frame and the plate so no screws needed.


By the way guys, we are good to go now, do you want to just close and finish the buy now or to wait for more? Either way, I can start sending invoices in a couple of days, stay tuned :thumb:

what colors are in the first picture in the first post sir? the blacks of the long bars look lighter than the side bars.

[FrostyToast]

Well I think a lot of people including myself are waiting for the second round when the options are more refined.
If you want to run this as a precursor group buy to a larger second run I'm confident that you won't lose on sales.

Agreed, I've been waiting months for this GB to start but money and sky blue is what I need.

That's grey sir, currently not available yet.

If a second round could be organized within a couple of months or so (six months at most?) then it might be best to close it now, and do this run. If it'll be longer than that, you should wait so I can get my order in ;)

Second batch will happen as soon as we finish this batch and extra anodize colors are good enough for our product (aesthetic, re-producibility, dye and consumable pricing, capital cost for rarely used colors...).

We count days and weeks, not month

Oooooo then that sounds good to me!!!

That's grey sir, currently not available yet.

ah, ok. and another thing sir, will the plate bottom row support hhkb layout? something like X 1.5x 7x 1.5x X where X is empty/blocked?

Somebody asked me  to do that already so it is possible, I'll make that an option in the next form

you guys are amazing!

[KaminKevCrew]

Ended up ordering one anyway

I figure I'll go ahead and maybe order a second if the new colors are enticing enough!

[renne]

This!

I'd love to be in the first round but I really want Green anodizing for the bars.

Same here. I'd like to support the first round, but really want the combination showed in the first post.

[dadoduk]

I have a two question.

Q1) Is this Weaven 60% keyboard housing compatible with BeastMask's 60% PCB(ex. B.face X2 PCB)?

Q2) Where is shipping area?
       . ex) From Finland to Korea? I am korean.

Yes it is compatible with most of the custom 60% pcb on the market, BeastMask's ones including. (Though I never tried a B.Face, on the original project I used a FaceU)
Shipping is from Vietnam

I can't wait for the round 2 that will have an alps plate option and more colour 
You guys are awesome

[JaccoW]

What would be the go to pcb for this? I've never tried 60% before (just 66%) and I would like to have a good looking programmable pcb for this. Preferably in black with led support.

This one perhaps.

[xondat]

Wanted to say that this case is dope - it's hit at the wrong time for me though, as I'd prefer a 75% rather than my 3rd 60%. GLWS.

[foggyflute]

UPDATE:

New plate ready and waiting for new stands.



Take photo of final product kinda not really make any difference compare to original one, I'm thinking about making a hands-on video...

Hey bazh, would you happen to have some anodizing colour samples? It would really help make up my mind

[foggyflute]

We would, for all current colors and extra colors of the second batch. But first batch have all my attention for now, until it done 

[renne]

Shipping is from Vietnam

to worldwide? im in china. looking forward to round 2

Currently we have rate for US and EU, China would be easier (in theory), especially if you're near Guangxi

The photos are great, but I'm a little bit confused. Are these pre-production units, or have you already gone into production.

[foggyflute]

The photos are great, but I'm a little bit confused. Are these pre-production units, or have you already gone into production.

Honestly, I'm not a patient man, so waiting soooo longggg for production and shipment as a buyer of other group buys is not my thing 

So, for my own group buy, instead of waiting for payments, I use my own capital to start the production stage (deadline is next Monday and we're on time, no delay happened despite stands design change). So as soon as payments go through, anodizing for chosen colors will take place and buyer get the final product in less than a month (hope so), include shipping time. It's a hybrid of having goods stocked and normal group buy.

Sorry for my bad English, I hope the paragraph above make sense to you

That makes perfect sense. That's a fantastic turnaround, I'm sure everybody will be glad to get their boards so fast.

Indeed it did make perfect sense, and that's an amazing way to do it. I love it!!! Any idea how long anodizing will take?
