It can be built without the acrylic diffuser, right?
Yeah, I think so. I still have troubles understanding how the acrylic diffuser can be incorporated in the design though, as it seemed pretty solid to me.

Ah, I see! Thanks again for the clarification! That would look cool somehow if you have a color scheme going. :) I'm not going to install that, but it's great to know it's extensible that way if needed!

Come on, be honest...how many of you got TWO of these boards? (Keep in mind, Revo said he wasn't going to make them again so this is the final group buy for it!) And what color? What switches did you have in mind? This shall be hyped for months! ;)
Planning to get a few more, will need to see the photos of different colors first. Planning to use R5 65g Zealios with Zealencios on them. Also might be interested in using other PCB's with this (zeal60 comes in mind).

I figure this is a stretch, there'll be no European distributor type deal correct? I'll probably end up having a friend of mine in the US build mine for me anyway so no big deal either way, I'm just curious.
Hopefully I can find a way to justify the cost before the buy ends, the board is beautiful and I'd hate to pass up on it. I'm "that guy" that has like 10 boards and 9 of them are black but I'm DEFINITELY getting pink here!

Depends on your switches of choice. For a bottom-mounted plate/PCB combo (more rigid), I would go with a softer/more springy polycarb plate myself. (Hypothetically speaking).

One of the things that excites me most about this is that you can make multiple boards to use with it. There is not certain mount where you have to have certain PCB and plates. I will use this case for a long long time. May be a trueendgamemain stay for me. I want to get a gray but I know most keysets will go with black better so I went with that.

This is great logic. The case is compatible with other 60% plates though? The cutouts on the bottom row won't get in the way? If not, having a few PCB, swtich, plate sandwiches laying around to throw in this thing would be delicious.

Keep in mind guys, you can have whatever layout you want. The PCB is easily reprogramable! Have fun with it! :)

Limit of 50!
if i am planning on waiting a week to order and you happen to get 50 orders before i can make mine, what should i do?
I read the OP wrong. It's a MOQ of 50!
sweet. if i do end up getting in on this i'll order through you sherry!

One of the things that excites me most about this is that you can make multiple boards to use with it. There is not certain mount where you have to have certain PCB and plates. I will use this case for a long long time. May be a trueendgamemain stay for me. I want to get a gray but I know most keysets will go with black better so I went with that.
So excited about this Raymond! This is my first Keyboard GB.

I THINK. Looking at the screw location, it seems to be standard Poker screw whole.
Can you confirm Raymond?

He said any standard 60% can be used. Any plate as well. Be careful about the plate though! Not sure if a Pok3r style plate would work 100%. Most are universal anyway.

BTW,The PCB is a custom made. ESC led will face north,and the rest of the leds will face south. This way,it's better for resin keycaps you put in the ESC spot.

Googled, south facing LED's work well with GMK. It's the other way that doesn't work well with GMK/thicker caps. Yay!

Hi guy since this is tray mount. You guys don't necessarily need a plate. Any PCB like GH60 will work in this. So PCB is something easily replaced.Just out of curiousity: why did you go with tray mount? Some folks over on reddit say that it would have been better to choose something similar like a Duck Viper, because tray mount feels very rigid and not that good.

I know people want to have a soft type feeling. Still tray mount is not that bad and it's easy to replace. You don't need a plate.After all i am quite happy with mine. With the vintage black everything is good. ;D ;D ;D

It's hard to go wrong with black. Pairs well with nearly everything. Having a black board for your rotation is great and something I am sorely missing...definitely considering switching from the pink...
But pink is so <3

Totally agreed. Black is easy to pair,it can never go wrong. But with terminal,gray can also fit in perfectly. I think the base color of terminal is kind of gray isn't it? ;) ;)
Also pink is so good make everyone want it. Don't change it.

So, just to clarify: it won't be possible to buy just the case on its own without all the extra stuff to it? I think I'd join the GB if I could acquire the case solely.
Because we made our own PCB. So the pcb is not worth much to us. Plate actually comes free,factory charge case and plate as a whole. If you don't want them and get something like $10 off, it's like nothing. So i don't give options with no PCB. You can sell the PCB and make more money.I know many people want to take a second PCB.

I'll answer you here as well. Like i said in Dr.D GB thread:
First, i do have a warranty and this can be replaced.
I have to tell you this. I will never send out this kind of product. This one is too obvious to ignore it. It won't pass the factory's QC let alone mine. It seems it meet strong base or something. It could be something happened by shipping or something.
I am replacing bad parts for Dr.D GB as well. You can ask around and people can tell you that i am easy to work with. Show me what's bad and i will replace it. I am not someone you can't reason with.
This is ridiculous. I will never send out this kind of product. Still,you can contact me and get a replacement.

I just what to say we have QC three times before i ship this out to MD. Factory will QC it after production finish. This is something easily be seen and i think they won't miss it. And after factory QC one of my team member will look at it. And i will do QC myself before shipping it out. This time i actually ask my wife's help. Nobody seen this big part of stuff before. So i think it's not caused by production. I suppose this is caused by meet with strong base. It could happened. Everyone in my team feel bizarre about this.Very strange
Still we are happy to replace it for you. We are sorry you have to go though this and i understand this is not your fault.I have a purple and a silver pad right now. I can ship it tomorrow. If you still want gray you have to wait for a month or so. Just contact me and tell me what's your choice.

I joinged the drop of the Revo Keypad recently (https://www.massdrop.com/buy/revo-design-custom-cnc-aluminum-keypad/).a lot of times I think people overreact over minor defects and scratches... but that truly looks like ****. definitely not acceptable
Received it yesterday and I am disappointed by the lack of quality control. My top half is of a different shade of color than the bottom, some scratches and completely uneven finish all around. Pics: http://imgur.com/a/10QDg
According to massdrop there is no warranty issued by Revo, so I wont be able to receive a replacement. I just wanted to post this as a warning to everyone looking into this GB.
Mine has an imperfection on the edge but otherwise came out perfect.

These pictures just made me want a Revo Numberpad. Please run a group buy on GeekHack!
They look SOLID!
Edit: Raymond is a great, reasonable guy. I wouldn't worry too much. He is very dedicated to making things right from what I've seen in his other thread. (:

Alright... I switched my Black for Gray.

I give too many options last time and it makes me very slow. So i think this time i wanna do a GB that runs really quick and smooth.
Gray is darker than my usual ones,it will do great.

Comparing to other higher end aluminum cases it will most likely be a bit taller. I have a silver case from TaoBao (not high end at all) and I HAVE to use a wrist rest with it.

Is there a hole on the bottom (towards the right) for the PCB switches? Just wondering as some pictures I've seen in the forums have a rectangular cutout. Also, I think it would be better for you to post all the pictures on the first post too so that everyone can find them easily! ;DYes there will be. This is just to show you what is it like. Thanks for advice. It's a great idea. It will have a cutout as there are many pcbs using that part as a bootloader or something.

Btw, it's made of PC,not acrylic.
I just learn acrylic will be easily broken in Winter,especially somewhere very cold. PC won't have that kind of problem so i will use PC instead of acrylic.

Last part arrived. Just take some quick pictures for you guys. No PSSo, will the diffuser make the board set up higher when installed or will it replace a part that is aluminum?

Ohh man can't decide on colour. Grey or Silver?

Not like apple space grey. You can see it in the color chip picture in the first page of this thread.

Is it just me or does the front of the case look very tall? Seems like it would need a wrist rest to type comfortably.
I think that depends. I never use a wrist and i feel very comfortable. You may need a wrist. But hey i always use cherry profile keycaps. Must use a wrist if you are using SA. :D :D :D

Google says the hhkb is about 40mm thick (probably at the thickest point), so I guess the revo is slightly thinner overall.Thanks! :thumb:QuoteHow high is it compared to a HHKB pro2? 🤔

I'm waiting on the Lightsaver GB to go live but really want one of these as well. And there's no guarantee of even getting a lightsaver... It's fine to just buy one with the excuse that it'll be worth more aftermarket (even though I'd have no intention of selling it) right? And it's fine to buy one having never tried HHKB layout right? I've been considering getting an HHKB but I guess this is just gonna be way nicer anyway.Hi，
I mean, my hands would look so good on that pink...
Lightsaver is a great board, can't argue with that. I think it's fine you try this layout for the first time. Anyway,it's programmable so i think everyone can get used to this layout.
Oh, there is no way to guarantee it will worth more. I just try to do the best i can. If i did a good job and people like it,the price would certainly go up.
Pink is really good and i am getting one myself. :thumb: :thumb: :thumb:

No, it won't be any different. I mean you could buy it from him. I will pack each kit the same way,this can make thing much easier for me.Cause you know, i don't want to put 2 pcbs in one box. I always missing something for someone. Anyhow,i think one pcb is enough for you. If you want more later on you can always pm me. And i think lots of people are trying to sell their PCB. :thumb: :thumb: :thumb:

Also since this is a BFace-like PCB, are the LEDs for the diffuser pre-soldered?

You just need to solder the switches and LEDs . Underglow leds is pre-soldered.

PC seems like a good choice for those. Softer plate for more noise reduction, and I hear linears feel najs on poly.

Nah, did a quick grep over the IC thread and found stuff like this:
Not that many chiming in here seem too on the fence... but for what it's worth, the Revo/ Dr. D GB has been really well executed so far by the good folks at Revo Team. Great communication, easy to work with and solid attention to detail on the product. Final judgement reserved of course for when it's in hand, but I'm extremely eager to see the Dr. D board based on progress so far.Thanks,Dr.D is in progress. I hope i can ship them before this GB start. I am really looking forward to it as well.
I have zero reservations about chucking a bit more coin Revo's way when this opens up... looks sick!
Anyway, This is a huge upgrade compare with Dr.D. It really worth it. :)
It is anodized in the same factory as Macbooks, but is the process and quality control the same as well? I'm assuming Apple uses a custom process. Knowing it was made in the same factory as Apple doesn't justify the price to me unless it is guaranteed to use the same process and quality. Any info there would be helpful.When i talked to them, i actually ask for better quality for this. Keyboard should be treat like an art piece instead of mechanical part. Even i said this,something wrong could happen when it goes to anode. Hang point,color difference,anode evenness,etc. What i can promise is i'll do my best and i will personally supervise the whole process of the anode. This means this HHKB kit will be the best kit we ever produce.I won't send out anything that has a ding or scratch on the surface or heavy color defference or uneven anode. If you buy this and receive it have this kind of problem.i'll change it for you free of charge.

Post by: poq on Wed, 26 April 2017, 18:21:37
I have a Zeal60, and I like it a lot. The major reason is that it has LEDs on the board, instead of in-switch LEDs. Plus, it's purple. I won't be using it in my Revo case, however. Also worth noting that if you live in the US, after shipping a B.face will cost close to the same. Honestly though, they both are made well, and are very comparable.

A b.face will, a b.fake will be much cheaper.
Im also surprised by only 91, but that makes me feel special because so few people will own these, and even less a pink one :D
Is there any chance we could get info on the number of each colour chosen, Raymond?

That might be a choice too though, but I don't really want to waste my spot seeing that the GB has closed. I'd rather it go to someone who would really like it.

Yeah, it's just that I'm moving and am trying to downsize my stuff. I have way too much of the same stuff, still not sure what I would gain from this as I already have the duck vipers and the switches I know I would like ... On the same time it feels bad to miss out on any group buys just for the sake of it.

That grey does look nice. I've been considering changing to black or grey from pink, because it's hard to find keycaps that go with it, but it's pretty rare to be able to get a proper pink board. Plus if less sets go with it, means I won't spend the money on those sets and my wallet stays happy ;D

The way it works is that the acrylic piece can be added/removed depending on the user's preferences so you can choose to have the underglow or not have it. :D

Sorry, speed reading. Thought you ask IF it came with a PCB. But yeah, Midnight is right, somewhere in this thread there is talk about the PCB. It's going to be black and gold similar to the PCB that came with the Dr.D board - if I'm not mistaken.

Hot damn the pink is in hot demandBecause it's the best colour! Pretty rare to find a pink keeb, even less so one this lovely colour and in HHKB style.
If i had the money I'd get a black or grey one as well, for more keycap options, but pink is what made me join in the first place.

Actually, i think pink is easy to pair. You can always use beige sets if you don't have any Valentine set. :D
Oh yeah, lighter/more neutral sets will look amazing, but darker/more vibrant sets like Skeletor and even Forge could look... interesting :p I'll have to see how Troubled Minds looks on it, only spare set I have at the moment.

Can't be, look at the bottom row. I'd imagine it's the same colour though, makes me question my choice even more :(

no,it's a one-body 60 case. It's made by microarc oxidation. It's a little bit different than anode. And this ac :thumb:tually looks a little bit grey,not very pure black. RJ will be pure black.

Any color is good enough. RJ anode will be really nice so any color you choose is the right choice. ;D

There is no delay by the CNC. However, most of time the delay is caused by anode. Hopefully everything goes well with the anode.

Well, that keypad is not designed to pair with RJ. And the color is different. Size is also very different,the keypad is better pair with a TKL. Also it used another CNC and anode factory,so it's quite different. But i think black silver are very close.
I know i am not suppose to say dont buy it. But if you want to pair with RJ it's not a perfect choice. However your questions makes me thinking about doing one keypad to pair with RJ. We can have a small buy if there's demand.
Have a good one,steve

Thanks Raymond! Should have noticed that, of course the dimensions are closer to Dr. D than RJ.

A little update here. We have finished the CNC for RJ. But there will be a delay because we have made a decision to use a improved polish shop.
This is something new we just tried and this polish is really good. Although this will cost more money than excepted but we just want to use the best we could.Anyway i won't charge you guys anything but unfortunately this is done by hands so there will be a delay. I am not sure how long at this moment,i assume it will be a month at top.
Here are some pictures of a sample we tried. All RJ kits will be polished like this:
[attachimg=1]

Dang, Raymond- you never cease to amaze!! That polished finish looks amazing. Thanks for the update and for always thinking of quality first. No doubts about this being phenomenal when all is said and done.
My only question is what the colors will look like with the polish finish...? Of course, looks sick on silver, but can't quite picture a mirror finish on black or pink. Any samples of that?

I am not quite understand your question. As for the colors, this wont change the colors. This just give us the ability to use smaller sand and make the anode layer even more smoother and better looking. So it's like a better surface for the board. And this doesnt influence the coloring procedure so the color will be the same.
Hope this is can help you my friend. And have a good one. Haha :p

Sorry- didn't ask that very well.
Just wondering if it will be a shiny mirror finish and smooth feeling over the colors (think new red Ferrari) instead of the more matte feel and slightly rough finish we are all used to with standard ano processing.
Thank you too, my friend! Have a great weekend.

I still need to improve my English is all. But if you are thinking a new red Ferrari,this is not that case. I think cars have a paint layer on top of the anode layer but keyboards dont have it(i am not sure about it,i dont know how cars are made). We still need to sandblast it so you will still see the sand,just smaller than usual.This will definitely lose all the machine marks so this can have a perfect surface. Normally we just roughly polish it and sandblast can cover most of the machine marks but sometimes you can see some of those. This mirror like polish will get rid of all the machine marks.

We still need to sandblast it so you will still see the sand,just smaller than usual.This will definitely lose all the machine marks so this can have a perfect surface. Normally we just roughly polish it and sandblast can cover most of the machine marks but sometimes you can see some of those. This mirror like polish will get rid of all the machine marks.
Sorry- didn't ask that very well.
Just wondering if it will be a shiny mirror finish and smooth feeling over the colors (think new red Ferrari) instead of the more matte feel and slightly rough finish we are all used to with standard ano processing.
Thank you too, my friend! Have a great weekend.
I am not sure if i explain this clearly,but ask me anything you dont understand
Btw, we are trying something new about the Alu coating,maybe you'll like it. Stay tuned.
Have a nice weekend!
All good, I need to improve my English as well! :)
Sounds freaking brilliant. I cannot wait for this board to ship. 100% trust your artistic direction of this bad boy. Keep it up, my friend- RJ will be an instant classic.

Hi Everyone
A little update here. We have finished the CNC for RJ. But there will be a delay because we have made a decision to use a improved polish shop.
This is something new we just tried and this polish is really good. Although this will cost more money than excepted but we just want to use the best we could.Anyway i won't charge you guys anything but unfortunately this is done by hands so there will be a delay. I am not sure how long at this moment,i assume it will be a month at top.
Here are some pictures of a sample we tried. All RJ kits will be polished like this:

If you have any question about this you can always send me a pm. I may not post in this thread that often but i am always on GH.
Is that a brass weight on the bottom?
That looks to be another case, pretty sure a weight was descussed during the interest check and decided against.
Post by: Kafka on Sun, 02 July 2017, 13:16:48
My only question is what the colors will look like with the polish finish...? Of course, looks sick on silver, but can't quite picture a mirror finish on black or pink. Any samples of that?
The polish isn't for finish; think of it like sanding down wood before staining, or adding primer before painting something. It aids the annode in color reproduction, allows smaller beads for anode (smoother finish), and more consistency across the surface. The finish will be normal anode-like, not glossy. Hope that helps :thumb:

Hold your horses there, bud.
Making accusations like that on a public thread doesn't do anything unless you're trying to stir up trouble.
That picture was not taken by Revo (Raymond), from what I recall it was someone who purchased his board via the original small group buy, and posted the pictures on a website.
Raymond is a pretty honest guy, in fact he tries his best to ensure his stuff isn't a replica of other things.
Apologies if my tone seems rude, I just can't believe how easily people attack each other before talking via pm. Especially Raymond of all people. He's a very upfront and honest person.
TLDR; He didn't copy your artisans, he doesn't make any.
*Edited a few things for clarity since I was in a rush.

No,sir. If you read the IC thread this picture is take by someone who bought this kit before. I don't know where he gets this keycaps, i haven't notice it before now. Sorry i dont have a thing for artisan keycaps.I have no idea this is a copy of your keycap.
I never do artisan keycaps.And I will never do artisan keycaps. I only interested in making metal keyboard kit.
I also hate to copy other's work. So i can understand your feeling.
If you dont believe me you can ask around. I never sell any artisan keycaps.

Factory told me polish will be finished around 25th July. So i will take some days off around that. Will talk to my boss tomorrow about a leave and book plane ticket to Shenzhen.

If you consider accusations and insults "amicable", I guess you're right.

Thanks for defending me here,and i really appreciate it. I think he is a little aggressive because he can't do anything with the copycats unless the whole community stop buying from them. Only thing he can is be strong with copycats whenever he sees one. Only this time he made a mistake thinking me as one. anyway i dont blame him. Let's move on.
Let's talk something about RJ. I have cut 2 orders who didnt pay me until now and 2 ppl on the waiting have brought them,factory told me they did 3 more kits today and i have contact 3 more ppl on the waiting list. If there's something left i will post here.
Right on, Raymond. You know there's a lot of love for you on GH.
Those are 5 lucky folks getting into a RJ- congrats!
Any new pics of the improved finish you can share?

Can anyone explain the main difference when using a tray mount? Is it just a complete lack of flex? Are there any other differences?
It's not completely 100% rigid, unless you're using a really dense plate. It is less bouncy than a top-mount, but really not that noticeable. That's about it other than the obvious physical differences.

Would you say it's similar in terms of feel to something like a Clueboard which uses a 'superplate' The plate is carved out of the top half of the case. There is 0 flex.
Can't say, haven't tried.

On second thought I should probably wait till I see my gray in person too. I guess if either of us still wants to do the trade we can just PM each other.

Gaterons and new Cherry blacks are smoother than vintage blacks, with the added bonus of a normal price. Gaterons just have a tiny bit more wobble.

I don't remember when I first thought this up, but I want to use a SS plate for my Revo RJ, and I was thinking some of you might want to do the same since it wasn't offered in the original GB.
I am thinking about contacting lasergist to see what kind of prices they could offer for a SS group buy (if they offer any price drops at all)
If you're interested let me know and I'll see what lasergist might be able to offer :)
Also, question for you Revo: if there is enough interest, would it be possible to get the plate design you used so we can keep the design consistent?

Any idea how long it usually takes to arrive once it's been shipped? (US). Didn't order through Originative.
Not sure how much it'll differ, but from being in two Duck group buys, it took about a week, possibly two for the boards to move from Korea to me in the US.

I was reading a bit on Xondat's X60 thread and noticed that some people were having some issues with USB port fitment with the Zeal60 PCB. I don't know if it will affect the RJ, but worth throwing out there. I've been debating on using a Zeal60 with this, but have been reluctant to because of some of the fitment talk. Anyone who is planning on using one (I'm sure you will, but I'm going to ask anyway), could you post your experience and which revision of the PCB you used? (I have a Zeal60 R1, but it's in another board)
RJ is standard mount so it should work better with that PCB. Although, I have heard of others that had to file the PCB down a bit in order for it to work. I guess we will not know until they are here though. I am thinking about using a Zeal60 for one of them too.

There is interest for about 11 plates currently, and Alex gave me a ballpark of about $41 shipped CONUS for a raw finish for the Revo style plate. (http://i.imgur.com/4fh6SAJ.png) (International would be a bit more, not much though)
The more people interested, the more chance for price to decrease.
He also said we could get some of his universal style plates (http://i.imgur.com/5vTKW8o.jpg) for $30 shipped CONUS. (These would be raw finish as well)
Alex also mentioned there might be other other options in terms of finish, but I'm not sure what that entails.
If you wouldn't mind, please fill out an updated interest check form HERE (https://goo.gl/forms/a1BT57wwS2b9sfSU2)

There are some pictures in the IC of the back. It will probably look a little different with the acrylic spacer though.

Today I have a little update for the SS Plates that AlexAtPanc and I have been working on: We're live!!
- They will not be in the same style as revo, but rather universal layout. (http://i.imgur.com/5vTKW8o.jpg)
- They will have a brushed finish.
- Cost is $26 per plate plus $8 for shipping via USPS (I'm not sure if this holds true for international however. Please leave a note in the form and Alex will let you know)

I would be a buyer if I could get it in the same layout as the board. I'm not interested in a universal layout for an HHKB board.

Revo plate is essentially universal without the control key spots laser cut out. This will fit just the same and look nearly the exact same as the revo plate as well because the blockers will hide that part of the plate when it's assembled.

It's a really nice board. Very smooth anodizing and I love the aesthetic with the different color for the middle piece. I know Raymond wasn't 100% happy with the all of the anodizing, but he is a perfectionist and that just means RJ is going to be stunning. Dude has awesome quality standards.

Since this is the case, I figured I'd ask around to see if anyone would like to jump in for one.
Plates are in this layout (http://i.imgur.com/5vTKW8o.jpg), and are $26 per piece. Shipping is $7 regardless of the amount of plates you are purchasing. The plates should ship on or before 10/13 (oooh Friday the 13th!) and are capable of being mounted with MX and the majority of modern alps switches.
The form is here (https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1O_QaFZieoPIPUK4kT16LXMt1cYRKq11qi-crnKQswRI/). The form will close on 9/9. If anyone has any questions or concerns please let me know!

I'm curious to see how sought after the RJ will be compared to the Duck Viper. I have no plans on actually selling it, but just wondering. If I understand the numbers correctly there are less RJs than Vipers. And if I read correctly, Raymond has no intent of reproducing this board? Any speculation? Not necessarily interested in comparing dollar values, but more just how wanted these will be (so I can feel special or whatever)
I doubt the Vipers anodizing will match the RJ's, I also doubt there will ever be a matching num pad for the Viper... that is of Revo still intends to give us one in the future ;D

Not necessarily interested in comparing dollar values, but more just how wanted these will be (so I can feel special or whatever)Well the Viper is a korean custom, and kustoms typically hold their value better than chinese customs. The demand for duck vipers is pretty ridiculous though, duck quality falling far behind other korean brands like otd, lz, tx, etc (I believe most members of the community who own these boards will agree with me). Being said I don't believe anything can compare to the RJ in terms of anodization quality, supposedly (we haven't held our boards yet). With this being a limited run while featuring things like hand polishing pre-anode and apple quality anode I am very curious to see wether its aftermarket value either holds or increases exponentially. However, due to its tray mount nature, among other things, I doubt it will be higher in aftermarket value than a kustom like the duck viper. Although I have a feeling the pink RJ will be the most sought after variation. Sucks that just being a board from a korean manufacturer elevates it above something like the RJ. But I could be wrong, who knows ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

RJ is tray mount. Kills it for a lot of the higher-end buyers who pay the crazy prices.
The viper is also extremely overhyped.

Not that I think the X60 wasn't worth it, or isn't a nice board, but after all the production issues Xondat went through, the RJ was much less of a headache. Although, I still really like the X60 and part of me still regrets not getting in on that buy (in addition to this one).
On another note, I'm super excited to see everyone's builds. I saw someone mentioned they plan on putting GMK Yuri on a silver case. Funny enough, I plan on putting Yuri on my black case!

Can you post a picture of the grey, black and silver next to each other?
I'm in for a grey, would like to see the difference.
This will do?
Hmm that grey is gorgeous. I don't know if I can say no to an extra.

2, The wire(mainly 7u) in the stabs are oxided after 2 years in our warehouse.
Since i have about 16000 usd (From RJ) froze in Paypal. I have no power to re-do them.Sorry everybody have to suck it up. I may do something after i got the payment from Paypal,but for now there's nothing i can do.

Dude, it's things like this that amaze me about what it takes to run a good GB. First off, frigging PayPal. You spent your own money I can assume to do this production for us while they hold your money for what? I don't imagine you had chargebacks the way we have seen in some other currently open buys. That sucks- frigging PayPal.
On the plates. Minor bugger, in my opinion. Many of us have brass plates ready to go. There was the ss plate that gnmar and AlexAtPanc ran and I imagine several joined. And I don't see split left shift HHKB layouts all that much, of course split right shift is a must...
On the stabs... nice cable > stabs any day for me.
Thanks for the honesty and letting us know of the issue. You're all good with me and I imagine most here, Raymond.

Thanks for your understanding,my friend. I wouldn't want to say anything about the paypal,but it froze my money everytime i run a GB. And i have no way not using them.
I don't want to be like i am complaining about this,so i am thinking anyone want a left split plate can ask me to do another later when i get the money back. And i am looking to do a PVD brass plate for RJ. If the price is not too much. I can make everyone a new plate...maybe cover some shipping i will be totally fine.
As for the wire...nothing i can do... anywhere you won't see it everyday....
I know most of the people won't complain about this, i just want to be honest and it's better comes from me instead you knowing it by someone else's post.
Thanks :thumb: :thumb: :thumb:
Post by: RevoTeam on Fri, 15 September 2017, 01:31:33
Stabs no big deal (they're extra anyways). And since the plate is universal I don't think its a deal breaker. I just want my board Raymond haha.

I was planning on doing split right shift and 7u space, so I think I should be OK even with the plate issue on the left shift.
Would it be possible to fix the oxidisation issue on the stabiliser wire with something like lemon juice? Or would it need more abrasive cleaning?

You polish it. Using sand paper. Just get rid of the gold stuff. As for the plate,actually you can assemble without it and the PCB can support left shift spilt. :thumb: :thumb: :thumb:

I think Alipay is actually international. I have it set up because I used Aliexpress, I'm in the UK. I don't know if that means I can make payments to your business though, but I assume it's fine?

Yes, i can open a shop on Alibaba easily. And they only charge 1% fee when you using credit cards. And i dont have to froze the money. But i think it's hard to set up account for the most people? It's quite difficult i heard

It didn't seem too bad for me, it was similar to registering for any big commerce site. Somehow the Visa debit card I use on Aliexpress appeared in Alipay once I created an Alipay pin, but I don't remember much more than that... ^-^

yes. Ture. You guys have no idea how hard it is to do anodizion. Many thing could go wrong. Especially when RJ is using a very small sand. So i probably won't do it again.

I am sorry about your PayPal troubles. I have been AFK the last few days, any update on when O.co orders will ship to them?
Thanks for your understanding! O.co orders is been prepared...i want to send them ASAP and i think i can ship them out this week. Will post here once i do.

Yes, i custom made them. I will bring a GB for that soon...
Color me interested in these mysterious switches!

Side note - Raymond (or anyone else with the pcb), do you know if holtites will fit the pcb and if so what kind? I ignorantly ordered a bunch of these: https://kbdfans.cn/collections/keyboard-part/products/switch-led-hot-swap-32pcs and they definitely do not fit the board...
My dream would be to make this beast of board hotswappable.

The case is amazing, but using a diffuser without a palm rest feels uncomfortable.Yes,sir the diffuser is a add-on so that's not really ideal. I recommend do not use diffuser.

Funny you say this. I have a b.face pcb with the holtites installed already. Hopefully I won't have any issues using this PCB on the RJ when I receive mine. Should be no problem since the RJ PCB is a b.fake.
Sidenote, I got a gray one too. Could you post up a pic of yours? I'm just itching to see one thats been received since mine is stuck in New York.

This is from a 67g Zealios perespective. The polycarb sounds more crisp and has more give so its not as harsh on the fingers as compared to alu. I really like it. That said the installation for it is slightly more tricky because the plate bends more.

Thank you for sharing your experience. I believe the Viper is a top mount board and from my understanding that would also add to the flex. I was thinking since this board is tray mount, the polycarb may make it feel similar to a top mounted board with aluminum or steel. The duck board there is the mount with slight "give" based on design, whereas this would be a solid feel with slight "give" based on the plate.

1, Although i do not suggest to use the diffuser,but if you have to use it,read this:
When you using the diffuser, the top case will raise around 3mm(that how thick the diffuser is). So we have to raise the PCB a little by using the shim i put in with the rubber mat and stuff. Each shim is 1mm thick so using at least 2 at the same time. Put them on the Locating column and screw the PCB,then you good to go. ps.using black ones,they are longer
btw, you can add another RGB strip on the back of the PCB when using diffuser.
If you not using the diffuser, using silver screws.
2, peel off the layer before you using the PC plate and diffusers(i have peel off some diffusers).
3,Try to use hand-made cables. The mini port is usually smaller. It may not work with some normal cables.
PS.All 3M rubber is cut by hands since we couldnt find the right size. It may be a little ugly.
PM me about anything you want to know about how to assemble it.

It's no problem, really. I don't need it to live, and not having it means I can't spend time building it when I shouldn't be. Of all the things that could've gone wrong, having to wait a few days longer really isn't a problem ;D

I bought a brass plate as well. It'll be here Saturday. Is there a big difference in terms of feel? I'm really tempted to just use the silver plate with the nice ano on it. Plus if I wanted to swap to the brass I could just pair it with a zeal pcb and some different switches.

I'm actually not quite sure myself as this will be my first time using a brass plate.

A little curious if different plates will have any effect at all on how this particular kit feels. I think the difference will be very minute due to the tray mounting.
You're probably right, but the difference in flex between alu and brass is substantial and enough to convince me that it'll make some difference in feel even with the tray mount. I'll probably build both and report in!

More flex with brass I'm guessing? This will be my first brass plate.

Noo the opposite! You can bend the alu plate with your hands (without the pcb attached) whereas my brass plate from TX is insanely stiff and has almost 0 give.

If you can't decide which plate to use. You should put switches and everything on it and try it out. Just don't need to solder it up. Use the one you love the most and solder it up.

I used brass with tactile (Mod-M with Zealios stem) for my TX-CP and it's as awesome as my TX-1800 and the TINA-C which are brass with linears. For the RJ I also used linears.

If you want to do split backspace I suggest getting another backplate. I don't know if the same applies to the plastic backplate.
Post by: clasicks on Fri, 22 September 2017, 12:52:07
For anyone who wants to do split backspace with the board: the included aluminium backplate lets the two keys stand a little higher than all the other keys on that row, making the keycap hit the side of the case while typing.

As you can see, the spots for split backspace are further up than those for the normal backspace. Additionally, because it is just a little bit higher up it doesn't align with the holes anymore, resulting in a tilted switch. Those factors together contributed to the keycaps hitting the side case. If you were to hold it down while soldering you might be able to avoid the tilting but it's flimsy nonetheless.
Post by: slushi on Fri, 22 September 2017, 13:30:16
Ah so that's the issue. I noticed this too and was sure mine were seated all the way in. I swapped to the polycarb plate and it was fine.For anyone who wants to do split backspace with the board: the included aluminium backplate lets the two keys stand a little higher than all the other keys on that row, making the keycap hit the side of the case while typing.

I imagine that a relatively small amount of Dremel work should correct that split backspace issue, yeah? I haven’t fully decided which plate to use yet, however. Thanks for posting that, though. Saves some of us from encountering that!
Yeah, I'm not sure if I'm going to use aluminum plate or not, but a few passes even with a hand file should fix that quirk right up.

I just finished a build with a Zeal 60, MX Silver switches, and GMK Ocean Dolch. I ran into the split backspace issue, but my caps don't quite hit the case so I might leave it. Those two switches sit slightly proud, but it's not too bad.
Stunning build man!
Shouldn't have missed out on this, but was already in for multiple X60s xD
Is split backspace issue a thing on the Zeal 60? Or is it related to the plate?

Thanks :thumb:
The alu plate is slightly off if you use split backspace, so \ and ~ are about 1 or 2 mm out of position. I could desolder and use regular backspace, but my OCD isn't too extreme (for a GH user anyway). It also came with a polycarb plate which is fine, but I like the silver one!

Make sure you read about the pads that have to be bridged on the Zeal PCB. I didn't really pay attention to it until I came to build it. The docs are here: https://zealpc.net/blogs/news/programming-your-zeal60-rgb-pcb
I found it easy to solder the right jumper pads, but it was a surprise when I saw them on the PCB.

One of them is for my gf so I would get in big trouble selling it...

I just tried it on the Alu plate, and split backspace is a about 1mm higher than not split. The easy is to grind off that 1 mm on it. Or i can make some new plate when i get the money from paypal(could be very long).
I think most people that want a split backspace are going to use a different plate. That's what I'm doing. Personally, I think you've done enough, the kit is amazing. I get happy every time I look down at it / type on it.

My kit arrived today, managed to **** up building in about 5 minutes - forgot the stabilisers needed to go on before the plate :)) Got it built though, still amazed by how solid it feels. Anyone have tips for getting rid / reducing spacebar rattle?
I usually use thick lube on the stabiliser stems to reduce rattle. For my Revo build I actually used Zeal's transparent stabilisers and the spacebar sounds amazing (with thick lube and GMK caps). I couldn't really see a difference between the ones Raymond shipped and Zeal's, but I've had good experiences with the Zeal ones in other builds so I used those this time.

Thanks for understanding.
And about the plate,i will re-make some alu plate for RJ buyers after this buy is finished cause that way i can get my money back. I just need to something to cover the shipping.

You could get a kbdfans Tina.

O.co delivery update?
Just posted on KBDIST- "Due to the mid-Autumn moon festival, both these sets will be shipped on 10/20. They may take about 1-2 weeks to arrive, and we will make an announcement as soon as then!"

I am back to work guys. The factory is not working though...They will ship the rest to me around 13th or 14th. So i will ship Oco order around 16th or something. Best case.
Worst case, i will ship it around 20th. I won't wait any longer than 20th.
Thanks
Any news on the Oco orders? :)
Post by: Unforgivable on Tue, 24 October 2017, 09:23:59
Raymond has shipped the Oco orders to Sherry, using his proxy.
Right now the rest of the updates should hopefully be coming from Sherry, as Raymond doesn’t have access to those invoices/shipping statuses.
Overall, they should hopefully be shipping out soon! I’d get your switches ready if I were you!
Edit: Changed a bit of the wording, for clarity.

Hi Everyone
Sorry about not being here all the time.I just super busy with my work. And i just start my holiday for Chinese National day. It's a 8 days holiday for everyone in China,so nobody working for shipping. And i will ship Oco's order around 9th Oct. when everyone get back to work.
Thanks for understanding.
And about the plate,i will re-make some alu plate for RJ buyers after this buy is finished cause that way i can get my money back. I just need to something to cover the shipping. I will figure out how much shipping fee for a plate. Could be just a couple of dollars. Will have more info when i get back to work.
Brass plates would be awesome too! :p
Very hyped for this!

Also still waiting. The last kbdist update said everything would ship last Thursday or Friday but it looks like no one has received a tracking number yet (except 1 person here).. Original ship date was in August so this is getting pretty annoying.
Just as an update, my tracking hasn't moved anywhere since I've received the notice. Its been at "Pre-Shipment Info Sent to USPS, USPS Awaiting Item"

Just sit on your hands and be patient, we will get them.
I hear you, and there isn’t much else to do. But it certainly doesn’t alleviate my frustration or irritation. I know GBs can take time, but if Oco really hasn’t received all the boards - i think we at least deserve to know why they haven’t shipped yet. Non Oco order were shipped and received two months ago, so it’s very questionable what’s going on.
I guess just some transparency would be nice and put some of us at ease.
But yeah, wait we shall.

That's it, I'm never buying from Originative again. After months of waiting past Raymond's ship date my RJ finally ships and was supposed to be here today. I get home and theres a UPS sticker saying I needed a signature, which I have never needed for anything else I've bought from Originative and was not made aware of in any way. So now to wait even more for this keyboard that I could have had months ago if I didn't think that Originative could do their damn job. On top of that today was the only day I have off work this week, god I'm upset.

Got my RJ today. Unfortunately I won't have time to build this for quite awhile but it looks great next to the Revo calc pad. Quick question: has anyone else had issues screwing down the top piece without the acrylic layer? The threading doesn't seem deep enough to tighten the top piece down all the way. Should I use a shim?
I ended up using the smaller screws, the black ones

Someone asked me what I did to mod the alu plate so that you could do split backspace and I figured i'd post it publicly for anyone interested. See below.
(https://i.imgur.com/K8tmcf7.jpg)
Here is what the plate originally looks like. It's a little grainy cause enlarged, but there are 4 "nubs" that cause the 2 switches to sit about 1-2mm above the rest of the row. You just need to grind these off.
(https://i.imgur.com/5sTZ3XA.jpg)
Here is what the plate looked like after I ground the 4 nubs off. You can be pretty flexible about it, as the PCB will be holding the switches in place even if you grind off a little too much. My advice is to insert some switches in to the plate of the same row, then add your split BS switches after grinding a little, seeing if it lines up, take em out, grind a little more, stick em back in, see if it lines up, and so on until it looks right.
Hope this helps!

That's exactly what I did to mine, and it works great. Can't even see the parts that had to be shaved once the switches are on. They had a little bit of play to them, so I soldered one leg first, melted and adjusted until the switch lined up with the others, then soldered the other.

Has anyone received their SS plates from the separate group buy that gnmar2723 is running? I've had my R.J for while now and I'm looking to build it over the holidays.
You should have received a couple of update emails from AlexAtPanc. Manufacturer produced the wrong plates and they are being remade. Just drop me (or Alex (https://geekhack.org/index.php?action=profile;u=54829)) a pm if you have any questions.

October - Week 4 Update - REVO HHKB kits should be shipped now.
November - Week 1 Update - Revo has arrived! We will ship these out as soon as tomorrow or Friday. We still have to undergo some slight quality check. **they fail to mention that they only received 1/3 of their orders**
November 2017 - Thanksgiving Week! - The remaining REVO shipments has been sent to us. They are en route and should be here post Thanksgiving.

Thank you, Revo, for the beautiful board.
The rounded edges match the SA keycaps very well. Cherry-profile matches angular cases better. Fascinating.

Has anyone been able to contact Oco regarding their order(s)? They are unresponsive to email and paypal messages. I'm clueless about the status of my Revo HHKB's and the updates on kbdist are not that helpful.. (see below) At this point I know that they might have received the remaining orders (maybe?..) and that they will maybe ship after Thanksgiving (so sometime in the future... great).

I finally got a response from them earlier today, and said that 2/3 of the revos have already been shipped out. 1/3 is still in transit to them, as it was the shipping scheme used by their agent/supplier.

I was under the impression that Revo‘s QC is always top notch, especially because he mentioned that the RJ is his baby and it‘ll be taken care of that there are no blemishes.

The frustrating thing to me is that the ones that are messed up are coming out of the O.co batches. Nothing has been wrong with Raymond's thus far. I'm not trying to create a conspiracy or anything but my blemishes are from the factory because it's under the anode. These were hand polished So I'm not sure how it could have been missed.
Regardless, this is a beautiful board and I do really like it. I would just like some acknowledgment/correction in some form.
Post by: ArchDill on Sat, 09 December 2017, 10:49:11
I have some major issues. These are all on the bottom side of the case but still :eek:.........Really disappointing to see this many defects, especially when it seems my kbd fans 5 degree case had better quality control.

Yes all the imperfections are on the bottom. I believe I have at least one edge defect similar to the one ArchDill posted, however, it's not visible once the case is assembled.

I sent a message to Raymond notifying him of the complaints on GH, and asking if the others were checked before shipping, I didn’t receive a reply..and it’s been a few days..It seems he’s checking Geekhack but hasn’t decided to say anything yet. (Maybe he’s trying to come up with a solution?) :(
I’m crossing my fingers and hoping I’m not affected, since I ordered two boards. I hope I don’t end up regretting it because now for $350 (RJ was $370+shipping for tray mount, mind you) , you can get so much more from Kin (flawless board, brass plate, PCB, Bag, etc.)
Please make things right for the other buyers, Raymond! :(
I’ll notify everyone how my boards are whenever I get them...from what I read above my goods are probably in the very last box going to OriginativeCo.
Post by: Puddsy on Sun, 10 December 2017, 12:23:44
In these cases, do the group buy organizes replace the item, or are the buyers supposed to just suck it up and still be grateful for paying $400 and waiting months for a scratched up product?
generally, you're boned if you get a case like this
it's chalked up to aesthetic damage
a few of the chinese buyers got theirs with issues like these, is just that they're minor (or you can't see them when its on your desk) so they don't really give a ****

As for people in the SS Plate mini group buy: You should have received an update email from him -- all plates have been shipped! Let me or him know if you have any questions!
Sorry to all folks in my mini-GB who were waiting with no update from me. I offer my most sincere apologies, and I hope that I can make it up to you in the future. Everyone should have/be receiving their plates; if you haven't received either the package or tracking info, please let me know, as PayPal has been unreliable with tracking emails of late. Thank you for your patience, and if anyone has any questions please let me know.

Here is the right corner (blocker area) blemish on mine. I know to some it might not be a big deal, but I see it every time I look at/use the board. :(
That sucks. That is the same location as one of mine. Mine is gray so it does not show up as much. Still not sure why only the last few have had the damage.
Post by: regionfree on Tue, 12 December 2017, 22:35:55
For those still waiting to get their sets, I suggest if you see unacceptable marks/scratches/dents on the kits you receive, don't proceed with the build. Take photos, and immediately send it to them via email. That way, it will help build a case to be raised to the supplier.
Post by: ArchDill on Wed, 13 December 2017, 00:14:12
I sent an email to Oco a few days back, asking about how the scratches being reported by some customers will be handled. They said they're trying to get in touch with the supplier on how it could be handled, but right now, they don't have any extras they could use for replacements. You might want to check or follow up with them via email if the set you got really has problematic blemishes.

I've had my board for about 3 months now. Didn't order it through O. Co. My case has a small knick on the front of it. I told Raymond about it, he offered to have it reanodized. Told me that it was possible that it could come out worse than before. I decided not to go with it. I'm not sure there is much you or anyone that has scratches can do.

I thought Oco received the rest of the boards?
Also, I had a question - has anyone had any issues with electric shock? Every time I touch the board and a static discharge occurs, my computer reboots. Any idea what might be causing this?

Haven't been able to think about them much because of college, but now that finals are out of the way...

Post by: mintyfruits on Sun, 17 December 2017, 15:15:11
In case anyone else runs into this problem, here is how I fixed it: I took a small wire terminal and placed it between the PCB and the metal standoff. I then soldered the other end of the wire to a GND point on my Zeal60 (far left row if you're looking at the top of the PCB; this row has VCC, GND, RST, etc.). This so far as resolved my issue (I built up some static charge several times and shocked the board with no disconnection issues or reboots). I'll update if I notice different results.
I hope this is helpful...

Anyone else have weird spacing issues with the diffuser? if i rest the USB port on top of the diffuser, then the plate rests crooked in the case; if i fit it in to the slot on the diffuser, then the port is too low for a usb cable to fit through the hole. below is an example of the former. as you can see, if i slotted it in, the port would sit below the opening in the case, preventing a usb from fitting in.Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/7OHmiST.jpg[img])https://i.imgur.com/mbJmmv1.jpg[/img]

There was some mention of having to use washers/shims under the PCB if you weren't using the acrylic diffusing panel, but apparently that turned out to not be necessary, at least for me. I think that's what the washers were included for.

It's such a shame really, as there is a lot of potential here. I don't understand how this went through a successful buy in China, like did none of the problems that people are experiencing happen with them? And if the problems arose because of the changes, why were they not fixed once a prototype was made? A little bit of patience to make sure everything is the way it should be goes a long way...

Currently have Lubed Tealios on a brass plate. Feels so good. Best linear I have used. IMO

I got mine from oco at the end of feb / early april. So my guess is his is from the replacement batch.

Mine is all the original stuff, got it a while ago. No defects from what I can see, the poly plate was slightly cracked on the right side but it doesn't really affect anything.

So my son was messing with my RJ and turned the LED under glow on... I have never used this. Paid someone to build my board. Any idea how to turn them off?
Thanks
EDIT: fn+R fixed it
Interesting....

Did the replacement boards ever go out for this? I forget.
SUPER LATE REPLY.
No, I was waiting on a top and Revo stopped communicating with me.

Just my yearly check-in to see if Raymond is still around to replace my top case. He stopped replying to my emailsover a yeartwo years ago.
Sadly a lot of gb runners take an apathetic approach to stuff like this. I've experienced this with CtrlAlt, the mech27, AL1, and CA66.

1. The bootmapper I have downloaded for programming the KB doesn't work anymore. Says it requires an old af version of Adobe air. I can't find the name of the PCB so can't redownload the new version. Anyone know what PCB this uses or even better, a bootmapping tool that works for the PCB?
2. Any update on improved acrylic diffusers? Still never installed mine due to the fact that it makes a USB port no longer fit :(
Edit:
Re: PCB — the thing that works is "bootmapperclient" which can be found on google.
Re acrylic diffuser — found this post by Revo deep in the thread. Will give it a try. https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=88750.msg2495477;topicseen#msg2495477

Thought that I had updated this...
Not long after this original message, I was sent a whole new board. it was one that did not pass his QC because the grey was darker than the grey that was sent out.
