Is it raw brass for the plates? Like, will they need some coating or oil from me?
one question, for the extra aluminum plates, i didn't see a color option, do we just pick the color when we pay for shipping?
Not yet, but going fast. About 10 spots left. Once it hits like a 5 orders left threshold, it will show up on the product page.Pmd you on the site

Thanks for the GB! Just entered for the velvet singa. I've ordered also extra 2 pcbs one for octagon v2 (hope it matches it) and one for backup.Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/9q83Nly.jpg)
Is the pcb the same as R1? I need one for octagon v2 because it has centered usb port.

Down for one in champagne color! Any ideas on what would be nice?https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=94356.0;topicseen
Am thinking of getting white pom keycaps to match to get that true champagne look
Good lord, can someone make up a photoshopped purple case? I'm dying here.. 3 purple keysets i will have, yet purple isnt my favorite color, but maybe its dark enough to be sexy. but gollllld. ugh

Yeah, the only reason I didn't choose it was I was worried about how it'll turn out. The color plate/sample gives an idea of the shade but I'm too chicken to go all in on Purple without more than that :D

You can tell its gonna be good. The red color sample matches the pics from Round 1 perfectly, and you can see the darkening effect from the ****ty lighting they were taken in. Bleh this fence post hurts.Good lord, can someone make up a photoshopped purple case?

Took some pictures of my Singa R1. I think the R2 inner weight is much cooler than R1.
Added a final order change deadline guys.
10th April 2018.
I'd like to start manufacturing asap :)
Curious, does the WK version still have the blocker on the right side or are both blockers gone?
Would love to see some samples of the jet purple anodization so that I could envision it together with GMK Phantom.
Stick with your regular colour... I'm ok with having the only purple Singa lololWould love to see some samples of the jet purple anodization so that I could envision it together with GMK Phantom.
I think all we've got for now are the color sample plates. I might end up flipping a coin before the 10th...so hard to decideShow Image(https://i.imgur.com/LB7xsdC.jpg)
Actually originally ordered the navy top but instant regret thereafter. Changed it to jet purple top and whew, am I looking forward to this!

PS2AVRGB so it runs on the Winkeyless Bootmapper Client. Very straight forward. The default layer is already preflashed. Just plug the board in, press toggle bootmapper, and click download. each key is programmable through the drop down menu.

Final invoice doesn't mention the bottom colour, or is it just me?
Hiiii guys.
So I'm increase the number of spots in this gb. We're currently at 56. Andddddd Ill be putting up 12 spots of SINGA R2 with the polished inner weight. They'll be priced slightly higher as the weights are both machined and hand polished which is time consuming but a lot of people are asking me to do this so here we go.
Colours will be 2 of each of the 6 colours. Meaning 2x Blacks, 2x Velvets, 2x Jets, 2x Oranges, 2x Navys and 2x Champagne.
Always FCFS. Unless you'd like a raffle? Please let me know your thoughts.

What about for those who already purchased a singa? Can we switch to the polished inner weight by paying the difference? ;D
Hiiii guys.In my opinion, it should be available only to the original 50, not newer entrants. The original supporters should feel rewarded rather than forced to get this benefit. I think a raffle for these six spots weights is in order.

To make it simple, I think it’d be best scrap the idea.
All SINGA R2 weights will be sandblasted as with the original plan.
Gonna be honest... since all of the photos show the weights as polished, I always assumed that's how they were going to be delivered. A bit disappointed.
- Sandblasted SS Lion Weight and SS inner weight, Brass plates and Alu plates in the new colours
Gonna be honest... since all of the photos show the weights as polished, I always assumed that's how they were going to be delivered. A bit disappointed.
Understand it's more expensive, and I'll love it either way... but honestly, it was shown advertised one way and not clearly noted that this was not what was being purchased. It's misleading, plain and simple. That's the last I'll say. Still looking forward to my board. Thanks for the update.

Sorry :/
It was stated in the IC that weights were sandblasted but I think how it couldve been missed easily.
Id be happy to offer a refund on anyone who isnt keen on the weight issue. My apologies again.
I’m still keen on getting a polished at extra cost of that’s viable.

Unfortunately no it isnt. Spoke to my factory that it was a mistake on their part, took too much time and cost to finish up even these 2 proto weights cause there were machined polished first then hand polished.
Just placed an order for the velvet. I'm not sure if I got in the extra spots, but if it let me put through the order I assume so?
I just got a second one coming. Now I have a Champagne winkey and a Blue WKL. I am/my savings are hopeless.
Thanks Elaine for the update.
Don't complicate yourself with the polished weight. I am still excited for the Singa with the sandblasted weight.
You said the polished weights were hand-polished. Given that would it be possible for individual buyers to polish their own weights once they get them? Do you have any suggestions with regards to what to use, techniques, etc?

Polishing stainless steel is very straight forward. First you degrease the metal, then you start with rougher grit like 600 and work your way to like 1500-3000. Maybe even higher. Eventually you switch to a polishing compound like diamond paste to get that perfect mirror.
That said I’m not sure I’d do it on the weight after it’s already finished as to do it you remove material and thus you would make parts not flush (many factories will finish parts assembled to get cleaner seams).

Yeah, they are extras. The PC is the R2 design with brass plate/weight/lion. It is a whole kit, not just a shell.

I’m pretty sure when they were listed was when she was converting the existing orders from PayPal invoices. If I remember right tho there are still like 10 extras, or were, I don’t actually know if they sold yet or not.

Once my code is merged it should be available in the configurator at: https://config.qmk.fm/#/singa/LAYOUT_wkl
You just use this to flash it (with windows anyway): https://github.com/robertgzr/bootloadHID/blob/master/commandline/bootloadHID.exe
To get into bootloader mode or w/e just hold esc while you plug the keyboard in.
The repo itself will be: https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/tree/master/keyboards/singa
But first the PR needs to get approved/merged.
Ok, it's in the configurator now:Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/H74lliF.png)
I made a few mistakes on the layout file for the split layouts, so right now they look like this:Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/tdqALhj.png)
But I have already corrected the issue so sometime later today or tomorrow or something it should show up like this:Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/lj8F2mg.png)
If you are trying to do iso or split spacebar right now you just have to use the default keymap which has ALL the different slots open. I'm not actually sure how to setup iso in the configurator ux, but I can add other layouts if there is anything people care about. I tried to get all the obvious ones, but I just have WKL so I only have one option and was pretty much guessing.
If anyone has any issues let me know.
To use the bootloaderHID thing you just run a command like this (in windows):
.\bootloadHID.exe -r .\singa_amnesia0287.hex

SINGA POLYCARB UPDATE
Fri, Jun 1, 5:20 PM
Hi guys,
I'm waiting for the new batches of pcb to come in, which would be in the next couple of weeks.
The new prototypes pcbs had to be tested by yuktsi which was a week ago. The production pcbs are currently being made and once they're in, I'll be updating you guys with another email.
Everything else is ready to go.
If you have not bought shipping, please buy them on the site.
Sorry for the wait :|
Thanks!
Was that an update for just the PC version? I am part of R2 and was checking in on that :)
For those in R2, do we buy the shipping now or do we wait for the email first before buying shipping?
A new email went out with an update. Sounds like polishing and anodizing is taking a while and shipping will likely be in July. PCBs are in their way to yuktsi for QC.I like right angles. I'm hyped.
And there was this photo of these random metal rectangles:Show Image(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180620/df49ae045b442b05699944b5f251a4ff.png)
I've seen that a number of people have received their Singa PC orders, who I presume were part of the "main" order. I got in on the "extras", and am wondering if those first recipients got "bad" PCBs or what the situation is there? Is the Singa PC or R2 PCB different from R1, or is PCB for PC vs R1/R2 different for some reason?
Patient but getting antsy, and trying to understand why some got PC early with PCB, but rest of PC deliveries are waiting on new PCBs?

Patient but getting antsy, and trying to understand why some got PC early with PCB, but rest of PC deliveries are waiting on new PCBs?
From what I've gathered from Elaine, she simply ran out of PCBs. I'm part of the main order and am still waiting on an extra PCB/plate combo.
I'm assuming the PC versions that have already been manufactured still have the blasted finish on the brass weight? Any updates on those PCBs being tested/cleared to complete the remaining PC orders (asking for my own selfish interest, obviously)
When are we suppose to go to the website and pay for shipping?

Is that the shiny weight in the picture?
Any pictures of the blue yet?

Actually, SINGA R2 is essentially a preorder. Am I eligible to apply for vendor status?

I’ll provide updates here as well. I feel it might be easier for participants to receive email updates as I dont think everyone checks geekhack much. But youre right, only fair to do both.

Would prefer to swap, but I understand if thats not okay and would be happy to purchase an extra.Are there extra plates available for purchase or exchange?
Sorry, would you like to swap your current order plates for something else or would you like to purchase extra plates.

Was wondering if any one has some experience soldering in RBG lights to a PCB and the controller? Might be getting a Polycarb Singa but doesn't have those items soldered.
Wondering if any one has a extra PCB for sale?

As far as I understand, Elaine is out of the country right now and will be back within a few days. She shipped out as many as she could before she left and will continue once she's back. So you're probably in the "second batch" of shipments.

Yep, can confirm she's traveling right now and should be back around the 25th-26th if memory serves from when I messaged her.

polished anything is scratch magnet. All the polished weights are cleaned with jewellery polish cloth before assembly.
Regardless, even a small fibre gliding will scratch it.
This was why i opted for sandblasted finish but seeing the rollercoaster ride on this. We ended up on polished weights.
Pros and cons to each really:

I am having trouble flashing Singa. It is likely something due to my ignorance, but I would appreciate any help any of you could afford me.
I am trying to flash a wk layout (LAYOUT_wk), but no matter what I flash Singa with via HIDBootFlash v1.0 (Running as Administrator, Win10) the keymap does not seem to change. The Flashing appears to be successful in all cases. HIDBotoFlash detects the device (ps2avrGB Detected), I select a hex file I created with QMK_FIRMWARE by making my own keymap and the Flash Device output seems successful (Finished Flashing Device). Despite this, the keymap does not seem to change. I even made a debug keymap of all one character and flashed with no changes.
I figured this is my ignorance and inexperience speaking. Maybe I should start a thread elsewhere if that is more appropriate, or maybe it is something simple I am overlooking. I can shoot my hex file to you or create layouts in Keyboard Layout Editor if it helps. Please advise! Thanks in advance.
Thanks for the quick reply! bootloadhid.exe is HIDBootFlash V1.0 in this case:Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/SnBhrkB.png).
I am not sure why it is not working.
I ended up using bootMapperClient (http://I ended up using bootMapperClient) as the board identified as being from winkeyless.kr. All is well. Thanks again!
Can anyone send me a link to the Singa Discord?

Great shots. You got some studio lighting there at home eh? :)
Got mine a few days ago. ^-^
It was surprisingly difficult to capture the actual color of the case as it seems to change slightly depending on the angle and the lighting. But it looks stunning in real life. Please excuse the fingerprints.
Thanks for the beautiful board, Elaine. :thumb:Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/VWYqiMI.jpg)Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/gdXLRBU.jpg)Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/rITmiea.jpg)Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/dVsMMy2.jpg)Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/96mlks0.jpg)

Hello! I have two questions as this would be my first high end custom. If I were to use Bsun housings, would I be able to use the hotswappable feet (built in holtites, I guess?) with the PCB or would I need to remove them and solder? And could I use either screw in or plate mounted stabs?
This is such a wonderful looking board and I can't wait to see it in person. Hoping this is my 75% endgame!

Will there be any more extras posted on the site, PC or Alu?
Does anyone have any suggestions on mitigating the scratches on the polished nameplate on the inside of the case?
Came pretty beat up with a dozen or so small scratches and several more relatively larger scratches. Elaine has mentioned someone suggested polishing oil of sorts but am unsure if there’s been any success with this or another method. Any recommendations are welcome. Thanks!
^ There is a blue/purple WKL on the site now if you like that combo.

Hey, as I said in my email, the minute scratches are inevitable due to the kind of surface it is. The way it is polished, it will have hairline scratches regardless, I am not sure with polishing it with a varnish because it is chemically polished it will probably remove or change the look of it.
Maybe someone else who has tried can chime in

What switches did you end up with?
realized this super late because I'm just getting to build my board now - both my brass plates got me to bent....
got 2x new plates that were flat, pretty quickly too. thanks a lot Elaine
Ah, yea I understand what all the parts are. I'm just new to soldering smd parts. Like I assume they're similar to in-switch leds in the sense that they need to be oriented a specific way, but I'm not sure which way.

Does anyone have a stock json/hex file (what does bootmapper use? there are options to load both) for Singa? I tried to add a key after not using bootmapper for ~18 months and wiped my entire layout.
