[IC] Noxary 268.1

[xondat]

This is my 2nd creation following on from X60. Everything is different if I compare the two boards directly, but the philosophy is still the same: 8 degrees angle, top mount, and a simple silhouette. I started with two main goals of decreasing the bezel size and making the plate lower to the desk. I believe I've gone to the maximum that's possible with the material, and not much could be improved without sacrificing structural integrity. Hopefully it's worth the hundreds of hours that's gone into this project.

The buy will begin shortly after I receive the sample (about 3 weeks away).

Case Information:

• 6061 Aluminum
• 8 Degrees Angle
• Brass Weight with Engravings
• Thinnest Top Mount Bezels (4.6/3mm)
• Lowest Plate to Desk (7.7mm)
• Optional .5u Blocker

Supported Layouts:


68 key may change. To put it simply, it will be the layout I want to use.

Plates:

• Top Mounted Plate with Switch Opening
• Universal or 68 Key Plate
• Clear Polycarbonate, Anodized Aluminum, or Polished Brass
• Partial Polycarbonate 68 Key Available

PCB:

• Custom QMK PCB by Rozakiin
• Presoldered Controller, Diodes & Resistors
• Mini USB
• Interchangable For winkeyless.kr 22mini

268 AG:

• Limited to 22 Units
• Anodizing or Cerakoting
• Brass Through Weight with Individual Numbering
• Polycarbonate, Brass, or Aluminium Plate

Cerakoting is likely to add $50 or so to the case price.

268:

• 20 Units
• Dark Gray or Silver Case
• Brass Through Weight
• Polycarbonate, Brass, or Red Aluminium Plate

Price (excluding fees + shipping):

• Case (Top/Weight/Bottom) - $320
• Plate - $30
• PCB - $30

Shipping:

I'll be shipping with DHL Express again, with most packages taking 1-3 days for a good price. I'll be shipping from the United Kingdom; local taxes and fees apply. Estimates for shipping are as follows: United States - $40; United Kingdom - $20; Europe - $30-35; Asia - $50-60.

Deadline & Lead Times:

I'll allow 1 week after starting for payment. After this, the order can be submitted to the factory and will take about 6-8 weeks to arrive.

Thanks for reading. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them. Thanks.

2017 sure is the year of the 65% 

Best of luck on this Xondat! I really like the style of your other boards 

[avid]

Yeah this layout seems super popular now!

[joey]

Looks nice, good luck!

[amnesia0287]

Ooo. Doo want. FCFS or Raffle? I want AG but would buy either. Been dying for a nice 65%.

[hayt]

Looks great Xondat! Love this layout, I'm very tempted

[pixelpusher]

Looks great.  Interested in that Cerakote.  Any more info about the colors available?

[VicareyG]

I Need this! It looks so nice

[tireddoctor]

A million times Yes! But I hope it is done in large enough quantity so some of us can get in.

[poolside]

Nice weight design on the AG 
Oh and filleted edges. They feel smoother under the finger.
Will brass plates be offered in future rounds of the L? Gotta be quick if you want one.

[xondat]

Thanks for the support everyone

Ooo. Doo want. FCFS or Raffle? I want AG but would buy either. Been dying for a nice 65%.

I will probably do FCFS, not sure there is enough demand to bother with raffle.

Plan to offer as many colors as possible with the AG, I want to offer lots of freedom with the builds.

A million times Yes! But I hope it is done in large enough quantity so some of us can get in.

Well now there are 42, which might be enough. If not, I can do more runs of 268L.

Thanks! Yeah it should feel smoother. I think it looks nicer and makes it look even thinner.

Not too sure. I might offer it for this round, but still have to consider costs and ultimately whether it's different enough from aluminum. I'll build identical boards, just different plate material, and see whether it's worth it.

[nmur]

awesome brass weight design dude

[frostbyte-gaming]

Definitely interested, love the 68 key and I have been interested in trying out a polycarbonate plate. Also will we be able to order extra plates and pcbs to go with the case?

Of course. Prices are listed separately so that you can work it out depending on what you'd want

[tuba section]

Really looking forward to this! Love the thin bezels and the AG weight design. Most of all I love the simplicity of the Noxary boards so far. Great stuff Xondat

[breckstar]

Cerakoting white? In for sure if possible

[ns90]

I keep saying I don't need more 65% boards since I prefer 60%, but then I keep seeing these beautiful boards, so I guess I'm in!

[ihalatch]

Very interested. When?

[DALExSNAIL]

Looking good boi, gl

If I didn't already have 65% I'd be all over it!

[Delirious]

If that is indeed the pcb I'll be in for alps. Will you release the plate dimension and such so I can design my own alps plate?

[RevoTeam]

This is looking good. Good luck,man

[Strontaap]

Oh, snap. Yes please!

[xondat]

Thanks again for the support, can't wait to receive and show the prototype to everyone.

Very interested. When?

Shortly after I receive the sample which will be in 2.5-3 weeks.

I'm not sure I'd officially support it, but I'd be happy to work with someone in getting an Alps plate if they really wanted it.

Curious what's happening with the super fast GBs. Normal seems at least +6 months. Is 6-8 weeks to arrive for completed keyboard?
Is it because you already done prototype? Also curious about the anodization, will it look simular to x60 boards?

6-8 weeks is the time I'm allowing for the manufacturer to make and ship. Using the lead times on the quotes, and how long the sample will take, it should be plenty. Of course I can't predict the future, but the design is set and it will be a case of asking for x numbers of parts and waiting.

The sample already being in production, and not starting the buy before receiving it will make the wait look quite a bit shorter for participants, so I guess it helps.

Anodizing should be like the Fjell and Klippe. Anodizing does vary per batch, but the factory have shown good work so far. There are many great pictures of the Fjell around, and hopefully the Klippe soon. Here are a couple:

[jerue]

This looks wonderful, I hope I am able to get a 268L during the initial run!

[ctzn_voyager]

YES

[xondat]

What do people think of cerakoting? I want to offer it but I think it'll be too complex, and of course it's added choice as it's not done at the factory.

I'll also post a pre-engraving picture of the 268L weight later

I wanted cerakote so I could get beige.  I've always wanted a high quality beige case. But if you don't have a manufacturer who you know can do a great job, we'd probably be safer to go without the option.

Why don't people make nice quality custom ABS cases?  Still hoping one day someone will

Oh that's a good point.

When I said too complex, I mean logistically. I think it'd probably be worth it for those that want it? The quality looks good, I'll have to try and get some pictures.

The silver case with brass plate would look amazing.

[euphxenos]

Is there any chance you could offer it in navy blue (whether that's anodized or cerakote)?  I'm looking for a navy blue 65% to go with GMK Nautilus.

I agree. I haven't tried brass as a plate yet, so looking forward to that too.

Minor update today; Rozakiin received the first revision PCBs and will be sending one to me soon for test fitting. I'll get a couple pictures up when I can.

[theillumedpanda]

Looks very appealing! Shame I missed your last GB and couldn't really get my hands on an unbuilt kit. Hopefully I'll make it this time

[skidude9678]

South facing LEDs, correct? If I'm lucky enough to get one I'd like to put tealios and zealencios with a GMK set on this.

Is it possible to put a very thin acrylic diffuser in the seam between the tot and bottom parts for those who wishe?  In my opinion it looks better, somehow masking the tiny gap.

[amnesia0287]

Sooooo... when can I give you money

[xondat]

Is it possible to put a very thin acrylic diffuser in the seam between the tot and bottom parts for those who wishe?  In my opinion it looks better, somehow masking the tiny gap.

Nope. Since the PCB is attached to the top piece, and the USB hole is on the bottom piece, any added thickness would mean they don't line up. Besides that point, diffusers and LEDs are ugly

Sooooo... when can I give you money

8th of October or so?

What’s with all the rgb? Thought this case did not have a diffuser and seems like a pointless way of driving the mfg cost up.

FCFS, I think the demand matches the numbers available.

Well the PCB is $30 so I don’t think it’s an issue. As far as I know they won’t have components soldered on, but it’s nice to have the future option without having to redesign. Same with the Alps mounting.

I kinda think you are underestimating the demand of ANY decent 65% right now. People are dying to get them and there are so few options that they sell out fast. The TGR-910 sold out in like a minute.

[DanielT]

With the current market and having a huge number of people in this hobby a good design like this one and like X60 (which by the way I regret so much for not getting one) it will sell in minutes.

The PCB section on the first page says: "Presoldered Controller, Diodes & Resistors".
So the PCB does not come with that stuff presoldered? Thanks for answering.

We will see. I’ll make the times a fair release for everyone, but obviously it has to be the middle of the night somewhere.

Sorry for the confusion. Yes, those parts will be presoldered. There shouldn’t be any RGB LEDs presoldered.

[xondat]

Low quality plate pictures? Sure



Top plate was a previous 68 layout, but since I added the blocker it has changed.

Bottom plate is mostly the universal plate, just without ISO (left shift and enter). I don't think I'll offer a full right shift (2.75u) as it takes away the fundamental feature of a 65% for me.

[poolside]

The X60's bottom piece had a thin lip machined around the contact surface with the top piece. I assume it was designed to help putting the bottom and top pieces in position relative to each other before fastening the screws. Will the 268 feature it too or some other kind of positioning bits?

I took the concept and improved it so there won't be any issues now. I've still got to physically test it, but it should be perfect now.

That wall where the screw goes in looking pretty thin

Yeah. I've been told it's thick enough and there are no problems with production. I'll probably try and break it myself to see how strong it is.

I think the only concern is that it will be too easy to break, but metal boards don't really get moved much, and they're pretty soft anyway (think denting a board, and how easy that is). We'll see.

[klove4252]

Very Very excited for this. Great work! Looks amazing

[ullr]

You said the plate will permit only 1.75–1 shift and not 2.75, but it looks like the PCB supports not only 1.75–1 and 2.75 but also 1–1.75, is that true? That is my preferred shift split and I would be very interested in getting a 65% that permits it even if I have to get a plate made later.

I've asked, but it does look that way. My plates will only support 1.75 1, as it's cleaner overall and without it, it'd take away the reasoning of the extra column.

Edit: Can confirm the PCB supports all three of those combinations.

[xondat]

So it's the Mid-Autumn Festival/National Day in China which means the sample will be sent out when that ends, which is the 8th. Will take a couple of days for shipping, and then guess what happens after

For now, I hope this picture of all the parts together satisfies until then.



Very close now

Also let me know what time I should open the buy at, preferably in EST. I'm thinking 4/5PM EST so far.

[___q]

Is there any chance that we could get a partial poly plate that supports non-split backspace?

Interested in building a board with a partial plate but really dislike split backspace. My ideal layout would be something like this (stepped vs unstepped caps lock doesn't really matter though).

I would like to offer partial polycarbonate if anything but annoyingly it's the most expensive material. I will probably have a few plates made with your layout + split backspace + normal caps lock.

So other than the optional cerakote finish, are there any differences between the 268 and 268 AG? Will both be offered in blocker and blocker-less configurations?

The weight is the main difference. There is also pretty much infinite customization possible on the 268 AG, whereas 268 will just have a couple of case colors (not figured plates out yet).





They aren't meant to be too different, but if you want something unique, get the AG.

Lovely design, that 68 key layout is exactly what I'd want from a 65%. Will the same 68-key plate cut be available in brass as well as aluminum?

Yes it will be a 32u4.

The 68 key layout will be in all 3 materials (brass/polycarbonate/aluminum)


Should receive the sample this week!

Really looking forward to this - I would love a board that matches that Porsche grey.

My other dream color, though I'm not so sure how possible this is:

McLaren has a deep, deep purple that looks black in most conditions unless it is under direct sunlight, in which case its purple.

It is called Musgravite Black

I wish it'd be possible to realistically achieve these finishes. Amethyst Black would be nice too.

Maybe I should figure out how to get some cases painted as I think it's the only way to get something like this...

[txclack]

When you figure it out, I'm 100% in for Musgravite or Amethyst Black 

For now, I can definitely settle for regular Black or Purple - I'm hyped on this group buy

Ah a kindred soul! Both McLaren's Musgravite Black and Bentley's Racing Green are goals for me in keyboard colours, but it's so hard to get them right.

Haven't seen your instagram before. The blue x60 looks incredible. Might be the best blue i've ever seen 

Also such a nice surprise of early drop! 
1. Will there be info on all available colors before the drop?
2. Looking at the place, ISO is not supported right?
