[GB] Weaven 60% Housing ROUND 2 [In Production]
« on: Wed, 06 January 2016, 06:04:35 »
Weaven Keyboard Group Buy ROUND 2




Wait is over, round 2 is here  :p



What changes:
  • More color options.
  • Winkeyless version.   
  • After a quite using, we realize the universal plate while convinient in making and handling order it is suffer from the fact that the enter key is not fully supported. We decided to separate  ANSI and ISO for this round. In short, people will choose ANSI or ISO plate when ordering.
  • Also we provide assembling service if needed.
  • New shipping box, fully lined with foam to make sure problem like round 1 won't repeat.

What is winkeyless version?

DIS: :p



Price:
  • Unchanged: 1 full kit (case) = $230 (winkeyless option +$20)
  • Assembling = $30 + PCB, LEDs, switch,... (depends on your choices)

Shipping will be handled mostly by proxy, North American order will be done by Zeal (huge thanks), European ones will be done by our own, you'll get a secondary invoice for shipping when the order is ready to go.


More about color choice:
- Black, Silver, Golden, Blue, Red will be base choice, no minimum quantity required.
- Other options will need 5 order each to be made in to production. A Google doc poll will be posted here.



ORDER FORM

Check your order HERE


FORM FILLING INSTRUCTION: IMPORTANT

Please read this instructions:
  • Put in your base set quantity in the field.
  • Remember each base set have 3 pairs of aluminium part you can choose color for and 2 CF plates.
  • Choose color for each parts.
  • You can check more than 1 color if you're buying multiple base sets.
  • If you want some of the parts only, head to the "Extra parts" section. Put in the part you want in format as stated in the form.
  • Remember each of the side bars, long bars, and stands always comes in pair.

Order Count


Total
38

Order time should last about 2 weeks or more, it's depend, for now I will keep the deadline at May 30th

____Q&A____
  • What  layouts the plate support?
    The plate is universal layout with cut out that allows you to open the switch top cover without desoldering. It is also ISO compatible.
  • Why I don't see those awesome green and purple in the color list?
    Those colors actually requires a mixture of solutions so it was easy when it get done for one prototype, in group buy, we need to test more for consistency between each batch to make sure everyone gets the same color so right now it is not available. I'm sorry :(

UPDATE

June 11th:
please note that any further change to your order will only be able to do until tomorrow, starting from next week we'll fix the order, ie no changes allowed after Sunday (12th)

PIC UPDATE




26 FEB:
  • Faulty gold side bars pair will get reanodized.
  • Everyone if you're not happy with the blue color shown (need deep color as in order form stated) please shoot a PM to me, I'll get your parts reanodised, otherwise everything stay as in.

St. Patrick's Day update:

  • US, Canada and Malaysia orders shipped, UK order will be shipped tomorrow.
  • US and Canada orders are being shipped to our proxy in US, and will be ship to you then :D

25 MAR: Assembling Guild Update


25 APR: Round 2 Prepair and Round 1 Replacing Parts Update


  • We're working on solid foam package box for the next groupbuys.
  • Waiting sucks. Regardless of the condition of the other Weaven that have not been damage confirmed, we're done making the replacement side bars. A little wait before those can be anodized (facility is busying at the time on a very big order) so special offer for everyone: if you happen to change your mind about the sidebars' color, PM me, no additional charge. Also, better quality promised.
  • Zeal PC will be our proxy for NA orders on future buys including Lustro.
  • Round 2 start in short, maybe will go along side with Lustro.
16 MAY: ROUND 2 opened and Round 1 update
  • Replacement for round 1 is done, most likely will be ship before round 2 order get done, these are still our first priority right now. This is not affecting the schedule for round 2 (and Lustro) though.

Yeah I was so pumped for this, wish I knew when the GB was going to start so I could've saved money for it. After having to buy PCB, Switches, etc. it'll be around $350-$400.

yeah green is what I like so much (hence I made the prototype) but then the manufacturer told me that it (along with some other colors I mentioned) is a color mix so  we need to test consistency and reproduciblity to make sure it will be the same for everyone without large batch. :(

Nice work! Just right on time I got some new swes in the mail.
I'm really interested in purple and green anodizing, got an idea about Evangelion unit 01 color scheme.
BTW, any ETA on this?

Sorry mate, those color is not available at the moment :( I hope you enjoy the current options, if this GB turns out good then you can expect another batch with those colors too, I try my best :thumb: remember you can also buy extra parts to mix and match :thumb:

Manufacturing should be done expecting one month after payment, then we'll go to sorting and shipping.

and
the total kit includes:
    2x aluminium bars (top and bottom)

    2x aluminium side bars

    1x carbon fiber switch plate

    1x carbon fiber back plate*

    2x aluminium stands

    1x tier

am I correct?

1. No it's not since the backplate will not have holes like the Duck's one.
2. I don't know what you meant by "1x tier" but basically the others that you stated is right.

-.- sorry my fault...
I thought what you mean by tier is something like a foot / stand, cause what Google Image told me is a shape like that

I saw the green side bars and was pumped then disappointed by the order thread.

Definitely interested in joining but need to think about it now.

yeah green is what I like so much (hence I made the prototype) but then the manufacturer told me that it (along with some other colors I mentioned) is a color mix so  we need to test consistency and reproduciblity to make sure it will be the same for everyone without large batch. :(

Why bother with reproducibility for the colours? These are going to be rather unique items anyway. It could be considered an advantage knowing that yours is the only one out there with those exact colours.

So... should I get blue long bars with orange sidebars or the other way around?
You guess  :p

This is another prototype that did not make it to the final, but the color is spot on  :cool:
Is there a preview of the deep blue? Sad for no purple/green :P

I didn't make any in deep blue/navy color but at the manufacturer they have some motorbike part you can take a look for example  :-*


Any chance you have some side shots?

Can't decide on stands color just from the mock up.

I forgot to have some side shot, and right now I have the final proto being tested with color things so yeah, I'll post the pic later, give me some days  :thumb:

Not sure if this was addressed in the IC phase, but did you finalize on how you plan on sealing the carbon fiber after cutting the plate?
We usually seal our RC parts which exposing edge when in use, but the plate's edges is not exposed and also not subject to heavy bending force - which is the main reason for the edge's fray. I think it's not the problem here. Plates is cleaned to remove all chips

What pcb that can be used with these? and hows the feel of the carbon plate this board is really unique. I personally really like it  :thumb:

Any 60% PCB on the market will be good, the bottom row can support either 6, 6.25 or 7x spacebar configurations.  :thumb:

I think I'll be in on this GB, but I'll have to wait until I get paid, to make certain that I have the funds available!

I'll be waiting for your order mate  :-*


Damn, I regret buying a Korean custom after seeing this!

Really beautiful, really beefy. I'll have to think about it.

These look awesome :D

Thank you guys  :-*

I certainly have a guess. And it involves Skidata+ :P

Seems like I already know what my new project will be. :D
