As per OP:
If you want to make changes to the order, please PM me lifezone2 (at) gmail
** E-mail title : PhysiX and please write your name in the mail.**
The order change date is available until December 20th.

What are the plate finishes like? Mirror polished, anodized like the case, or brushed? And differences in finish between stainless steel and aluminum?
front height is a bit higher than usual.

Just ballpark figure, what should I expect for shipping to the US with one basic kit and a wrist wrest?
Also this GB will probably sell several hundred units I'm guessing
Many orders will close the first order tomorrow???
Large quantities are difficult to control quality

The weight is internal, brushed stainless and visible in the assembly album, from which I got this:Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/fKkL7Vw.jpg)

I wish there were stabs that were both 'screw in' ... and didn't have the possibility of the bars coming loose. A non 'clip in' bar or something.
Jam some toothpicks in the clips, they won't move.

Sorry, I read that incorrectly. I meant where they clip in to the pcb.
If you put the lube under the bar, on the clip housing instead of where the bar clips in, the bar doesn't come unclipped so easily.

Damm, how many orders did you receive before closing?Great question! I was wondering the same thing
Darn, I had the form open this morning but didn't finish filling it out before work, came home and its closed. Guess I shouldn't have debated on color and just gone with black. Oh well.
Open the GB and order 200 over in 20 hours.
So I can't leave the door open anymore.
I'm crazy. I exceeded my limit. :eek:
Closed your first order in an unexpected situation.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
So I'm worried.
First quality control and production schedule will be considered first.
The schedule will increase a lot.
Also considering dividing it into R1 and R2.
If we filled out the form, did we get in? :))
Honestly LZ, if there was a limit, you should've said so.I think that this way it gave everyone who was there, at the right place at the right time, a fair chance to get it. If you wanted it, you had to be on. There could be no doubt. But it wasn't like those FCFS GBs where I have no idea how they submit that fast.
Saying it's unlimited and then cutting it off makes a lot of people feel like crap.

Compared to those GBs that sold out in seconds, this GB stayed open for 20 hours and that's the same as unlimited in my book.
I'd prefer the GB runner to close GB early than take in 700 orders and then run into problems.Compared to those GBs that sold out in seconds, this GB stayed open for 20 hours and that's the same as unlimited in my book.
That was not the point of the discussion. If people thinks that this GB was handled ok i have less expectactions for this community to improve for everybody.

There should be some expectation or practicality. He’s not going to fulfill 1 million orders.
He already apologized. Whether or not he takes more orders, I think it’s pretty silly to shame.

Have you read any of the responses in the thread? LZ didn't expect that many orders to come in which is why it's now closed. QC for 200+ keyboards is going to be a damn nightmare.
There will be more chances to get in, calm your tits.
LZ is not a new maker lol, pretty much every board he runs maxes out as he always or almost always sets limits, then add in the craze for ergo boards currently, no way he thought it wouldn't sell well, thats just a bad response lol
there is absolutely 0 reason to not give a limit if you have a limit, that just poor planning

People are always going to find a reason to be upset unless they get exactly what they want. I've missed out on a bunch of group buys for a number of reasons. The reason that LZ didn't provide a hard limit because he didn't think it would be needed and that this prevented people from joining the group buy is not an objective argument (**at least a sound one).
He apologized for not letting everyone in, what more do you want?

I don't believe so. Just pay your invoice once you receive it, that's the only confirmation that LZ needs.
It says "Order Confirm Deadline : ~31. Oct 2019". Unsure of what this means.You won't be able to make order changes after that date. If your order is correct on the google doc, there is nothing left for you do to now until invoicing.
I am confused as to how we confirm. Do we just send an email saying what we see in the spreadsheet is correct?

I'm a little confused on pricing, does kin include shipping price as part of the invoice? My invoice is $86 higher than what I calculated it to be based on the listed pricing of the items, I assume it's from Shipping + PP Fees? though even then it seems a bit high.

Correct. It's for express air shipment via EMS and PP fees (4% iirc).

I have a split 65% keyboard, and I keep the halves tilted like the Alice style and prefer it that way. The biggest differences I see are some of the middle keys and the fact that the mods aren't tilted. So personally I'm excited to try this out

Assuming a PP fee of 4%, my shipping came to $85. For reference, I'm in the US.Mine was up there too, assuming 4% PP fees, I just wanted to make sure that was correct haha

It would be your country state/province tax (I think) + the shipping difference, that's the conclusion I've come to doing the math vs friends of mine that live in different provinces with the same order.I believe its shipping + taxes

I was just kidding before.Agreed, an I caught the /s but still figured I'd try an break it down for any other spectators haha
But it would be helpful if LZ would do a breakdown in the invoice to avoid all this guessing.
The basic set is calculated as 4,300kg and the weight of the additional options is added to the ems cost.
Basic Price + Option Price + Shipping Cost + PayPal Fee
PayPal fee is 4.451% Rounded up to 4.5%.
There was a slight problem with the application of the shipping rate.
I will send a refund for the difference. $2~$6

I also emailed LZ, and he told me that if everyone who ordered the alps plate was onboard with changing alps stab cutouts to MX stab cutouts, he would be willing to do it.
I might PM all the alps plate people later to see what they think.
Just my 2 cents, but buying a new alps set with MX stab mount is way easier than finding a combination of 1.5u 1.25u 1.75u with the right profile and a bunch of other ANSI mods that are not cheap laser engraved ones (AT101, Taihao). I like vintage alps boards, but I have no problem with high quality brand new doubleshot(DCS sets) and PBT(Kprepublic XDA, PMK) keycaps that fit easily into a more modern layout like LZ physix. This also means I don't need to rip keycaps from multiple vintage alps board that I have already converted to usb. Buying a full alps board just for a few keycaps is usually not my style.Will the alps plates have alps stab cutouts?

I am buying one of these from someone who was ready to give up their spot, and I'm getting an Alps plate, else I'd have just not commented and left everyone to their own devices. Why not inset and/or outset the Alps stabilizer inserts from the MX ones so you can support both alps inserts and MX stabs... that might prove to be impossible with this board (due to where the keycaps end up in relation to the top case piece?), but alps inserts and wires can technically be outset from the edge of the keycap (try not to if it isn't needed tho) as the wire can protrude beyond the edge of the keycap due to the costar insert sticking out below (or the standard Alps keycap insert for that matter) the keycap itself. Maybe a compromise can be made if anyone can work with LZ to check the plate file out for dual compatibility. I think if dual compatibility is not possible I'd personally tend to go toward maximum capability, which means Alps inserts, though if I'm the only holdout I'll vote with the rest of you for consensus even if it limits me to just DCS Alps sets, and the Rare DSA Alps sets.
Serious Question: I care about this subject myself and have previously suggested that Alps only PCBs support an MX screw-in stabilizer for the spacebar. That being said, the only place I usually ever have a hard time eliminating rattle completely is in a spacebar, particularly the 7u variety because the bar is stabilizing so much potential wobble relative to the wire's stability, but on the shorter (even 2.75u) keycaps I never have a problem. Why would we care to do it this way on the PhysiX? We don't have any stabs that you won't be able to get rid of rattle and major wobble on.
Note (#1): There are plenty of vintage alps boards that have 1.25u bottom row mods as someone was talking about being difficult to find, as well as plenty that have all the other makings for this board that can be combined to make a decent looking final keycap set... If you use PBT caps like from 5140 as someone else suggested, yellowing isn't an issue, as they're PBT. This board can, and if it supports them, likely will end up with a vintage set at some point during my ownership; but I'm weird and have a ton of Alps keycaps from harvested boards laying around.
Note (#2): DCS Yuri is also being made... nowhere near as cool IMO as WoB, but more modern Alps sets is news everyone should be excited about.
P.S. Can we get Tai Hao to make 1.5u mods and 7u spacebars for their Alps sets? More available useful sets in this space would be awesome! That and a 1.75u Right Shift coupled with a 1u row4 FN and a 1u numpad zero would be most of the additional compatibility I'd need or care about from them.

By the way, very nice keyboard.

The project plan is to shipping the two colors after the two colors are shipping.

It was not available as an option initially. I'm assuming a second form will be provided to allow us the option to add it to our order.ADD Order coming soon.

I filled out the form for a black FR4 plate but have not had notice from paypal to actually pay. Did I do something wrong?I don't believe so, because I haven't received mine either.

LifeZ, could I order only PCB and plate?A few posts up LZ said you can only order FR4 plates and PCB. There's an order form open until the 31st.

Just only me or is it darker at the bottom piece of the silver case than top case ?
Hi LZ!Has this happened to others also? I had a package shipped from Korea to me in the US on March 13, and tracking still just says it is at an international post office in Korea.
I had ordered some switch films from Kin and got my ordered cancelled because they can't ship from korea right now.
Do you expect to have to delay shipping or can you still ship?
I can't speak for the point in time, but I had a keeb shipped on 2/10, and my tracking info said the international post office for a while.Hi LZ!Has this happened to others also?

Delivery is now possible, but very delayed.
It is also said that there is a problem with local delivery by country.
(Delivery delay, loss, damage, delivery of address errors, recipients cannot be contacted)
I think you have to wait for international delivery.
Various problems can occur.
Case inspection starts next week.
I will make a safer progression than a fast progression.

I like both materials... I think if you were going linears I'd say FR4 all day, bit with HPs, I think I'd personally do Alu. Your call, but I think either will work well.Thanks for the quick reply, and yeah I'm leaning towards aluminum :)
Take care of your health LZ and like i've said already i'm of course willing to cover extra shipping costs.
Really appreciate all the hard work, these looks amazing!
That's ridiculous but i think also dependent if you have business shipping account. I only paid $75 for Taobao to ship me 13lbs of packages via dhl express and they even pack all the smaller boxes for me.
Last time I tried to ship a keyboard internationally DHL quoted me almost $400!

Still walking to the top of the mountain.
Due to COVID-19, EMS delivery is not smooth, so we changed the shipping company.
There will be no additional shipping.
All expenses are my debt.
I use the DHL contracted with the TX keyboard.
So the sender will be a TX Keyboard.
I am always grateful for the help of TX.
The first batch delivery will start next week.
Batch #1, Approx. 70%.
We will update the google sheet after shipping and update the tracking number in PAYPAL.
I will complete all deliveries before the end of August.
Stay safe and healthy! :thumb:

from experience with tx and lz gray boards, their gray anodization has always been consistent, along with their black and red. i'm regretting not getting a red one as well.

On another note... whoever tightened the screws is at least as strong as hulk. Wasn't able to unscrew them with my small screw driver without worry of stripping the screws, going to try again tomo with better tools :)

Do you guys think infilling the PhysiX logo is possible? Seems shallow but I’m not sure since I’ve never tried infilling before.
Just got my grey. Top ano is great but bottom ano isn’t great. It looks like it wasn’t ano'd properly or something?
One question I had. I got the wrist wrest, and in the package with the board were two sets of clear bumpons: one large, one small. Is it correct to assume the smaller bumpons are for the keyboard and the larger ones are for the wrist wrest? Or vice-versa?I used the small bump ons for the board and the big ones for the wrist rest.

He's right. The larger bumpons don't fit into the indentations on the bottom of the board. I tried it, too, and it was clear once I did.
I don't wanna beat a dead horse here but just to super-confirm, I got both wrist rests and received 2 sets of large bump-ons and 1 set of small bump-ons. So the large ones are 100% intended for the wrist rests.

I do recommend trying it out with and without the internal weight
The internal design is pretty interesting to me. Looks like - without the internal weight - that the distance between the inside of the case and the bottom of the plate (not the pcb) is about 9.6mm - which is actually very shallow. Once you account for the distance from the base of the plate to the bottom of the switch pins, there is very very little space left between the switch pins and the case.
As a result, I am surprised by the inclusion of any weight at all and - I'm guessing here - if you remove the plastic covering from the weight you may get shorts from the switch pins touching the case in some areas and/or if you type firmly.

Can anyone confirm that removing the film from the plate results in shorts? While it's all internal and not visible from the outside, it would be kinda sad not to be able to see the SS in all its shiny glory.

Weird thing, but my pcb has sort of stopped working a couple of times today - just turns off. Have to reinsert the cable to get it to switch back on. Don't think it's the cable as I swapped it out and it still happened again eventually. I'll keep an eye out on it.
EDIT: yup the usb port has sort of died. Definitely not the cable, as I am using the same cable in different boards and it's fine. I think it's because the usb port is so high it puts undue strain on the port from the cable weight and eventually it degrades the connection between the port and the pcb. RIP?
EDIT 2: Update - I reflowed the solder connections on the USB port and after a couple of attempts it seems to be working fine now. I'll post if it starts dying again! I recommend using something to prop up the cable on this board given how high the port is. I'm using a blood oxygen tester I got in the early days of covid - finally found a use for it!
Anybody here use the plate-mounted stabilizers from LZ with the plastic shims to secure them?
My hobbyist sense tells me to go with screw-ins, but it would be nice if these things actually worked just as well.

If you've got some decent screw-in's I'd say use those and test the new ones on a cheaper/hot swap keyboard.
You know for sure the LZ is going to feel good and you have a great excuse to get another keyboard :thumb:

I've never had issues with Durock stabs. I have constant issues with my Zeal stabs.
Built mine with Giant V1's.. From this thread is there really a shorting issue with the SS bottom? I was waiting for some liner before taking off the plastic protecting the steel weight.

So far one person knows someone who had a short possibly from this in one section of the board. I believe that's the tally.
I'm not deterred.

This may sound stupid but how do i put this PCB in DFU/bootloader mode? There is no reset button and I have tried all the different shortcuts to no avail.I am dumb, found out theres a reset button in the layer.

You are not dumb. I've been asking if there is a keycombo to press while booting to get into dfu but haven't gotten an answer from hineybush or lz.
If you somehow fudge up the keymap you might need to be able to get it into dfu some other way.

Is there any chance we can get the files for the wrist rest? I'd love to have a custom one made. Thanks.
the new PCB samples were approved at the end of last week, so they should be assembling/shipping the rest of them in the next 1-2 weeks. I'm not sure if there will be a delay from the upcoming Chinese National Day holiday, but it's possible.
Lz has update on extras spreadsheet that hiney has received pcbs and is flashing them.
Hey guys, please excuse this absolute basic question: Should the Caps Lock light work without any additional programming once soldered? Trying to work out if I've made a mistake in soldering or potentially have some faulty LEDs. Thanks!

Mine worked after soldering. Shouldn’t need to do anything else. Try desoldering and switching the LED wires opposite how you have them now.

Remove weight, put paper instead of weight, or perhaps wrap USB port with electrical tape
Sent from my SM-T970 using Tapatalk
Does the USB cable you’re using incorporate a drain? If the keyboard case isn’t grounded and static buildup isn’t being properly discharged, that could cause the issue you’re referring to.
Try swapping cables and PCBs if you can to isolate the cause.

Didn't have the weight installed. Just tried lining the area under the PCB with paper and wrapping the USB port with electrical tape. We'll see if it helps or not.
I'm not super optimistic, but I guess we'll see.
