Filled the form cause I really love the case.

Reddit ppl are raging a bit too much over the price imo, but it’s definitely very Steep.

If you could really offer an 350 or less no weight option that would be very much preferred.

Incase it adds cost, you could also remove the triangle dots logo imo.


I really just hope the hole price debate doesn’t kill your interest in running this, because I would very much love to get one.

Reddit will be reddit...

By removing the weight I think it would be possible to get the price down to around $350 but I am hoping to not have to do that.  Removing the triangle dot logo that you don't like won't decrease the price unfortunately  ;)

I'm running this as long as I get at least 20 orders which I don't think will be a problem.

It's all down to machine time, tool changes, positioning the work piece, etc.
Each case is double the usual number of parts, so double the number of tool changes, etc which kills the price.
The VE.A suffered from the same issue.

Note that there are a few mistakes in the USB holes that will be fixed in the final design (different heights).  I'm also considering make them more elegant.

Filled out the form. Board looks very interesting :thumb:

Are there any tenting options? Or maybe some aluminum feet to give it an angle?

I had mixed feedback on designing a tenting kit during the interest check phase. I'll probably run another IC with the GB participants. If 10 or more people want one then I'll design one.

Invoice paid. Been wanting to try out the split staggered layout ever since I missed out on the VE.A :thumb:

Have a few more questions.

1) Any expected ship date?

2) Does the pcb fit hotlite sockets for switch swapping? Specifically zeals.

3) Will cables be included or will we have to get those elsewhere?

4) Can we get blank weights? I enjoy getting custom things engraved on my weights.

1) Factory quoted me around 1 month to have the units complete but Chinese New Year is in the middle so we will see.
2) I'll have to check
3) I will include cables
4) I will offer blank weights if there is enough interest from GB members. (5 or more)

Nope a few more invoices have been sent out. Will update.

We are over 20 orders, so this GB will run regardless of whether we hit the limit of 30 or not.

Hi all,

Just wanted to give an update on my plans for the GB:

  • The GB will close for orders on Friday. Minimum Order Quantity has been reached.
  • CONUS orders will receive free shipping.
  • International orders will receive something else to compensate or can have $25 taken off their shipping quote.
  • I'm working with a community vendor to create wooden tenting kits. Please email directly if you are interested I will be sure to get the pricing out when I have it. The vendor I'm working with makes really high quality products but isn't set up to take on a ton of orders so these will be limited. I will raffle them off to GB members who are interested. I will also release the CAD files if you would like to have your own made by some other means.

Thanks to all who are supporting this buy. I'm very excited to get these boards out to everyone and I think all who joined will be impressed.

Hi all,

The GB is closed for entry and the order has been submitted to the factory.

To all that have joined I will be giving, at minimum, weekly updates on the status of the boards.  I look forward to seeing this project to completion :D.

Thanks.

(Attachment Link)

I submited files for the order to the factory without this layout. That being said manufacturing is not going to start until after CNY. I will get in touch with the factory tonight and see if I can update the file for the right half of the plate.

I doubt that they have starting programming the machines and I know machining hasn't started, so I don't see this change being a problem and will keep you posted.

Thanks for that.  Out of hardware planning curiosity, can this take LEDs or not?  I assume it doesn't.

Yes, these are in switch LEDs  :thumb:.

Update:

I wasn't able to get in touch with the manufacturing before CNY about changing the layout on the right half of the plate to support the shift -> arrow -> ? layout option. I will attempt to contact them again when they are back from holiday.

If you really want this layout PM me and we'll work something out. Thanks all!

Hi All,

Another update for everyone. Currently the Tops/Plates/80% Bottom have finished CNC. So we just have a few more bottoms and the Weights before the parts go to anodizing. Let me know if you have any other questions!

Thanks

Hi All,

The boards have finished anodizing but my contact found defects in 1 of the gray boards and 1 of the black boards.  We'll wait for those 2 boards to be redone and then the boards will be shipped to me!

Here are some pictures to tease you a little bit  :p.

Hi All,

Looks like the rework happened sooner than I expected and the boards will ship today :).  Also, for the list of people who wanted the arrows layout I have jaymaikan, PandaRooooong, WilySouser, and spiritjeon.  Please PM if you want the arrow layout so I can discuss with you.

Hi All,

Currently half the boards are stuck in customs so the entire shipment is being held up until they are released. FedEx has said there is nothing I can do from my end :/.  I'll keep everyone updated and bother FedEx daily :).

Hi All,

Picked up the boards from the post office yesterday and did QC and initlal packing for all of them.

Some problems I want to make you all aware of:

  • 5 of the weights for the left half of the board do not fit properly. I am getting replacements for these. Orders will be fulfilled in the order in which they were placed. I will notify you if you will have delayed shipment.
  • The manufacturer pulled kind of a bait and switch on me with regards to the overall quality of the boards.  The multiple prototypes I have received are flawless from the inside to the outside. The outside of the boards are flawless and look amazing, but there are visible tooling marks on the insides of the boards. Obviously these are not visible when the boards are assembled but I want to make you all aware and see your thoughts.
  • The PCBs are in assembly right now and should be in my hands next week. I will receive them and then flash the QMK firmware and verify all of the buttons are working as desired.
  • The cables are arriving this week

Thanks for being patient with the group buy I hope to start fulfilling orders in the coming weeks!

Do you have any pictures of the tooling marks on the inside? I'm not too worried as long as the outside looks good and that seems to be the case.

Also thanks for the constant updates! Always appreciated from a group buy organizer!

I have attached 2 images.  The part circled in blue is the tooling marks. The silver is my prototype for QXP that has no tooling marks.

Also here is your case as a reward for feedback :).

Oh that's way less than I thought, I can't speak for everyone else but I have no problems with marks like that on the inside :thumb:

Uploaded my branch to my GitHub. Still need to write a README and create an info.json so it will work with the online tool  :thumb:. Those more experienced with QMK can clone the branch here:

https://github.com/amnobis/qmk_firmware-1/tree/sx60

Any progress on the online tool compatibility? I tried my hand at the QMK compiling but I have no idea what I'm doing 
Same dude I'ma need some help to program this thing lol

I was bored so I did a thing: https://config.qmk.fm/#/sx60/LAYOUT_ansi_split_bs



I have no clue if it works or not since I don’t have a sx60, but I’m pretty sure I got the map right based on quantrik’s repo.

If any switches don’t work or are flipped lemme know :P

:eek: :eek: You're awesome! I've been googling QMK for like 2 weeks now trying to figure out how to make a json for the configurator.

I'm away from my board at the moment but I'll give this a try when I get home and report back :thumb:

**EDIT** Haven't got home yet still, but noticed that the right shift is not split. How do you go about making a custom layout for the configurator?

**EDIT2** I'm dumb found the drop down menu ha

So did it work? Lol

I had to figure out the layout manually, it’s the info.json in the repo itself.

I did all the layouts I could think of and a default one that I think has all the keys, but I could have missed something.

Quantrik just moved and started a new job the last week or so so he’s been mostly busy and unavailable. Your best bet is probably to try and ping him on discord. He is starting to be more active again now that he has internet service again at least lol.

Hi all,

Got the rest of the replacement parts today in the mail. Need to test fitment still but I think we should be all set! You'll get a shipment notification via PayPal if your board is on the way.

Thanks

So I just used this to flash my SX60. Everything worked except the backspace key. This was for the LAYOUT_ansi_split_rshift

The normal backspace spot is where I was putting that. Every other key worked exactly as I thought it would.

Any tips?

Hi All,

Update: QC'ing the PCBs and flashing base firmware for the rest of the orders and packing them up. Everything will be shipped out by Tuesday morning. After everyone has received their boards please contact me ASAP for replacement parts and we can work something out. Only one participant has expressed any need for a replacement piece so far so I don't expect it to be a big order. I just prefer that all the replacements are ordered together.

I'll give everyone until July 20th to contact me for any replacements they may need then the order will go in.

Thanks for being patient and I hope you all enjoy your boards  :thumb:

Have you consider delays of Parts beeing stuck in customs quantas?

I honestly doubt I will even receive my boards before July 20th, but then again I also doubt I’m going to need replacements.

Anyway just wanted to let you know July 20th seams unreasonable to me since I would have to request replacements before receiving my actual order

Sure, I agree.

I'll wait a week after all the boards have been confirmed to be received. Does that sound more reasonable?

Had some time to look at the board. Everything looks pretty good, had a few very very small dots/marks. Haven't had a chance to play with the pcb yet, since I didn't have a usb c to usb c.

Hi guys, I'm having some trouble with the pcb.

1, Are there and if so, which pin outs are for reset/dfu on the PCB?

2, Was capslock programmed to a layer, as switch hitter is not detecting it. I could easily check this if I knew how to dfu the board, since I don't know the pre-flashed keymap from Quantrik.

Thanks!

I'm still waiting on my replacement part. You told me that it would be manufactured after the factory got through the QXP group buy but it's well past that now and you've moved on to other group buys. I don't think you've forgotten as I've sent messages to you on multiple platforms over the past 10 months and have yet to hear any type of response.

Just a word of warning about Quantastrophus for all.

The last message I received from you before this year was in July of 2018 stating that you no longer needed a replacement part. You then contacted me in January 2019 expressing your frustration that you had not received a replacement part yet.
