Oh I have a horror story was about to tel everyone.
We are expecting some delay (about 1.5-2 more week compare to estimate 7-8weeks) due to acrylic blocks that I bought was not thick as spec said.
Our acrylic case thickness is 21.5mm from case bottom to a little bit higher than keycap bottoms. For that thickness, 25mm thick block would be sufficient, we think it will actually run from 24mm to 24.5mm. When they arrived, almost half of the blocks are only about 23 - 23.5mm, which is not good enough since we need to machine the surface for uniform thickness. After some unsuccessful to get the acrylic provider get them replace, we decide to order the replacement needed from someone else, with myself measure them with digital caliper before paying.
Surprisingly, most of them are close to 24mm or even 23.8. We can only measure the edge of the un-cut sheet so no way to know if they're all thick enough at areas far from the edge. After some calculations, we decide to go for 30mm thick acrylic so plenty of room for thickness error.
But that's come with a cost other than little higher material price. Most of them are true 30mm, not an block thinner than 29mm! I was expected them to be around 27 to 27.5mm (due to our experience with 25mm thick ones).
Now we have downtime due to halting for faulty ones, wait time for those new 30mm arrived, and 5mm more to shave down each block which is a lots since we run carefully so no chipping on acrylic - a hard but brittle material.
:(
Man. First VE.A and now this so soon. May is gonna be totes expens.
Edit:
Also, any way we can get some "real life" pictures of it with keycaps? The shots above are superb, but "normal" pics would give me a better idea of what it'll look like on my desk. :thumb:
Is there anyone else who wants to do Orange?
Questions:
1. Can I buy the base kit + B.face with controller and diodes pre-soldered? And how much would it be?
I want to solder switches myself because I haven't decided switch type yet. Plus I want to use a different plate. Basically, I don't want to buy B.face separately from winkeyless and pay another shipping fee.
2. Is it possible to use frost acrylic case instead of clear?
So the light could be diffused nicely.
3. Shipping fee to US?
Oh, I miss that part. Thanks! This is knida critical to any underglow keyboard ;)Questions:

Frosted is an option. It's included above as a sandblasted finish.

Something that goes with Sky dolch maybe? That would actually be the color I would go with if offered.

We will settle down to a common ground when all the orders are collected I guess. Definitely blueish color, haha.

... you'll get a secondary invoice for shipping when the order is ready to go.
I am with you in purple,and does anyone want pink?Is there anyone else who wants to do Orange?
I put in for purple, but if it doesn't make it, I would be interested in orange over the other choices given.

Just put in my order! I don't know if I put sandblasted or not but I definitely want that. I might be down to go with orange as well depending on how it looks!

Some how I forgot to include the option in the order form, worry not I'm fixing it and add that to your order too :D
//also I'll look if I can get the B.face for you, if there're people choosing the full kit then I can include your PCB in when I order from winkeyless :thumb:
Why must you run LUSTRO and Weaven R2 at the same time!? I can't afford both :-[

Can I get mine sandblasted as well please? Also, looking forward to seeing if you can manage some colored acrylic (that smokey looks awesome).
Urgh, three sexy 60% cases all out at the same time... I only have enough money for one :confused:
Would be really interested in getting an idea for EU shipping. I am in the UK, what kind of fee for shipping would it be?
Would also like to see a picture of some nice underglow lighting in one of these things too.
Will a KC60 fit the case? It is poker compatible
Now we have 3 kits with blueish color. 2 more to go? If only we can see some samples...
Nice. Let's pick some special blue, not those common ones on the market alreadyNow we have 3 kits with blueish color. 2 more to go? If only we can see some samples...
If the smoke acrylic is not an option, I will likely go with a blue color.
I just submitted my order form but I am not totally sure on the color yet.Just join our blue camp then :D
Would I be able to change the color later on once we have the "other" options figured out?
So you say that North America shipments will be handled by Zeal, does that mean hes going to try and use DHL overnight and charge us like $75 to ship from canada? Ive dealt with zeal in the past, and his shipping is handled pretty poorly (no options, overcharging, etc).
I want to get in on this but if Zeal is proxying, im expecting to see a $75 shipping invoice.

To offer a different perspective (in case this post deters you from ordering), Zeal's name is part of the reason I decided to join this buy. He charges ~15$ from Canada to the US and I have never felt he has 'overcharged.'
I have been in three other group buys regarding Zeal (proxy for SPRiT, 1st round Zealio, and now, 3rd round Zealio) and he has delivered everytime - even with the SPRiT stuff that I think some people STILL haven't received... and he replaced a plate for me during that buy when I told him he didn't have to.
I am sorry that you seem to have had issues with him in the past.

Theres no issue with reliability, i know Zeal is trustworthy. I am just a little worried about getting overcharged for DHL overnight shipping, because thats all he uses.
btw what is the estimated ship date for this?

I'm definitely a fan of the darker/grayish blue color. Not sure how interested other people are in that though.
So we can get some Zealio switches at same time with this GB?
Yea, I'd like to do the same if possible.So we can get some Zealio switches at same time with this GB?
I have a PM out to Zeal asking if he could ship this case (since he is NA proxy) and my round 3 Zealio together - you may want to try the same thing if you're not getting assembly.

You mean like the gray blue in Octagon V2 or something else? We better describe color with sample, but it's hard to find proper ones.

I'd appreciate if you would lessen the exaggeration...I offer DHL Express because the cost savings of items under 2lb is less than $2 vs Canada Post. Any heavier and it's faster and cheaper. I'm fairly certain anyone would take overnight delivery over 4-7 business day delivery.
For me to charge you $75 via DHL overnight to USA, the keyboard would have to be 45lbs+. Let's be reasonable, shall we? Depending on how the Lustros are packed, I expect DHL shipping to be in the $20 range.

Yes, I can offer to ship Zealios with your Lustro/Weaven. Please send me an email with your order # shortly after you've paid for your Lustro/Weaven kit.

So how this works? Place an order over your website? Or just include Zealios as parts on Lustro/Weaven order?
It would be nice to just make one combined payment and get correct shipping fee at once. Thanks for the help!
Really excited about this case, will probably be in for Round 2 once I see more pictures of fully built boards from this round. I was also super curious how purple anodized legs would look with the smokey acrylite body so I did a rough photoshop for those that were also interested. Will remove at bazh's request.

bazh, could we possibly order extra side pieces? People could support a custom colour (like purple) and get a stock colour (like silver or black) for when they use a different set of keycaps.
From my understanding, I'll be invoicing for shipping after bazh's GB is closed. Just send me an email if you've already got Zealios orders, I'll calculate the difference. If not, place an order for Zealios still, as I'll be using that order as a reference. The shipping invoice for the keyboard will be adjusted accordingly.

That might be a good idea. Plus you can do different colors on each side when you get a mad day, haha. If this supports Planck, you can even create a symmetric two-color layout for the keys. Just saying. :D

Hmm. Seems like I'm the only one that's looking for gunmetal :/
Thanks bazh for making extra side pieces available!
My preferred case is smokey acrylic with purple side pieces (like that unofficial mockup), but would like to get extra side pieces in gunmetal (or black if gunmetal doesn't make MOQ).
Should I wait until you confirm smokey acrylic is available, or should I order now and cancel if it's not available? I don't like the idea of cancelling and wasting your time, but also don't want to miss out on the group buy.

I have a question about the fully assembled option.
If I am going to pick that option, I am getting the case, the pcb from winkeyless.kr, and select the LED/switch that I'm looking for? And it will come assembled?
Can zealios be an option in the fully assembled? Is it being assembled in Vietnam prior to getting it to Zeal?
Thanks!

No you won't, we already have had 3 order for Gun Metal in Vietnam :3 It's really close!!!
Two questions1. Most likely the PCB will be purchased with controller components soldered, all other thing including diodes, resistor, LEDs (regular 2x3x4mm LED), RGB SMD LEDs will be ours to be done.
1) To estimate the cost of the PCB on winkeyless.kr, should we be adding all soldered components as well (diodes, resistors, controller, RGB, LED's, etc)?
2) Would it be possible to have sip sockets installed instead of LEDs? If not, since your plate supports switch top removal, would it be possible to add these after assemble is complete?

2. I don't have a source for sip sockets plus install those require extra efforts (removed switch tops, put in, then close switch tops) so it will be done by you if desired. Basically we don't provide custom switch work now. :D
Also, here's the color count, including order from Weaven Round 2 tooShow Image(http://i.imgur.com/jEW5z5M.png)
Note that this is just a visualized example using color fill from Google Sheets, it may not represent 100% accurate real color
There's also people with Dark Blue and Deep Sky Blue in the order sheet but I'm assuming that you all want a deep blue more like Navy blue so it will be basic option, no counts needed.
Will round 2 be a thing? I need some time to decide if I need another keyboard, as this is super tempting.

So the default blue is the blue in the pictures of Weaven OP, right?
Though I'm fine with that blue, I would prefer some special blue. Cyan is a little too bright to me. Maybe we can find a color between cyan and blue?
BTW, gunmetal is appealing too
Is it the time for the poll now?
Put my order in for 1 red stand set but I'll take 1 purple set alsoso that mean you're in for 2 set in total? :D
I'd like to add a Gunmetal stand if it makes the MOQ. I assume it'll be darker than your poll count right?

Sorry bazh I didn't make myself totally clear. I see you put that I wanted a clear case along with my sandblasted case, but I would only like the sandblasted.

In total: 1x Red Aluminum, 1x Purple Aluminum, 1x Sandblasted Case. Thanks!Put my order in for 1 red stand set but I'll take 1 purple set alsoso that mean you're in for 2 set in total? :D
Deep sky blue is a nice color.
I agree. I'd be down for that.
Would also be down for that!
Also Bazh, is there a difference between sandblasted and frost (sandblasted)?
I think it's just only wording, the goal is to have the finishing which create light diffusing effect :D
as long as it's blue, man

There is a difference between clear acrylic that's been actually sandblasted (has a rough finish), and a semi-translucent acrylic (which can have a smooth finish).
Clear acrylic that has a rough finish might become shiny/clear with oil from fingerprints, etc. and won't really diffuse the light as well as semi-translucent acrylic.

So my little promotion works I guess :D
Should I say "Deep Sky Blue" meets the MoQ? Cos' there are five here already including me~
Now here we go, a real sample~

hmm, let me take a look on that, for me in this buy I mean clear acrylic with rough finish, see if I can find supply for the other one and price stuff too :thumb:
Color count updated :PShow Image(http://i.imgur.com/Bibm5JH.png)
Still waiting on words about 60% case compatability of the 62/60, hopefully we get some info about it before this GB runs out.
Also sad that there is no green yet. No one has some love for green in this community -.-

bazh, could you also update the color of "sky blue" in this table so it would be similar to the "deep sky blue" in the color table I previously posted? I think people here sort of agree on that color I proposed. Thanks.
You can do that by selecting custom option under color and type in the hex code #00BFFFColor count updatedShow Image(http://i.imgur.com/Bibm5JH.png)

let me see if Google sheet have that color available, anyway I get the idea of the color so worry not, the table is not 100% the color will be made :thumb:

Once again, bazh, you're awesome :thumb:
Now that the sky blue is set. I want to promote some colors for the Teal/Cyan/Other blue (and potentially green?) camp.
How about "turquoise", "dark turquoise" and "medium turquoise" in the attached image?

just remember that each screen shows color differently due to calibrating and setting modes so comparing 1:1 screen light to real life object may not be accurate for everyone :PThat's very true. Hopefully we can a close enough result. I wonder if any sample would be made and shown here before "massive" production?
Love your devotion to this buy :)Thanks, buddy! I guess this is what it takes to make your ideal color meet the MoQ :p
I compared these colors to hyperfuse and sky dolch and it seems "dark turquoise" best fits from those samples
I initially wanted something to match the cyan legend geekkeys caps. On my computer they are almost identical to dark turquoise. Kinda hard to tell if that will match reality though... HmmSo tell me you're sold on it~

Yeah, if there are enough people on board (looks like ~3 atm?) and bazh is ok with me changing my order a second time, I'd switch to dark turquoise.

Dark turquoise hype! Bazh I would like my blue changed to this dark turquoise as well if possible ;D
I have a couple of questions,
1. Does this case only fit winkeyless' PCBs?

Why not just go for sky blue AND dark turquoise~ Forget about gold. Be a diehard blue fan :P

this should fit any standard 60% since wkl pcbs are standard fitting.
****ty pic but what would match this plateShow Image(http://i.imgur.com/jkMV1ZA.jpg)
cuz that's what i'm putting in it. I'm torn between the cyan and deep sky blue right now, leaning towards the cyan a little.
well the color appears to me look very much like a darker shade of cyan, no tone different, perharps we can compromise on that with 'Cyan' people ? A medium shade between the 2 is kind of work for me.Dark cyan works for me I guess. You can group us together, but the final color can be still open for discussion later. We have other teal people on the list. Wonder how their thoughts on this are~

Hey, welcome back! How many slots are left in the GB?
Also, do you happen to have any more pictures of an assembled Lustro? :thumb:
Yeah has there been a picture of an assembled one with underglow active? That's what I'd like to see :o

Well, that might not be updated. There are a lot more than 30 orders in the spreadsheet already. Don't know if there is an upper limit though.
Wew, the rumor said that the GB will be no limit in number of order, just make sure that you join it be4 the deadline :3

The OP states that there are a 30 orders cap. If we have already gone through it and it wouldn't be extended then ... :'( Perhaps there will be a 2nd round with HHKB style plate.
Order deadline is 2 weeks, or when 30 orders is up :thumb: Currently just keep in mind that deadline will be May 30th.

That's how I took it anyway. I guess we should wait for @bazh to confirm.

Just a heads up, I think a few people including myself voted for dark turquoise from that one color sample posted awhile back :)
Looking at the full kit that you offer, I guess you will be ordering b.faces from wkl.kr? Can we order b.faces from you without the assembly service and have them shipped along with our cases?

I think Just the dark turquoise with the frosted sandblasted case will be enough. We can cross off the other two. Thanks for changing my order so many times haha

Hi Bazh, just joined in for the GB. I'm still pretty new to all this, so I have a few questions.
1. Are the LEDs SMD or 1.8mm switch mounted?
2. Is there an option to have RGB LEDs? If so, SMD or switch mounted?
3. I want winkey, do I need to specify winkey or winkeyless in the order?
Thanks :)

The acrylic case looks fine to me. It's pretty much at the same quality as ones offered by winkeyless.kr.
The anodized aluminum looks kind of woody from the pictures. I'm expecting the same quality and silky metal as in 1st round Weaven GB.

Perhaps the proto is on lower quality because it is the proto therefore it was just to test feasibility and test the sketch. The cheapest the proto the better if you might have to do it multiple times, don't you think? I guess we'll just see what Bazh will say about it.

That's why it's a prototype :)That's why I can put my trust on you guys ;) Great work, appreciate that.
After the first Weaven groupbuy, we send out parts to multiple anodizing providers to test out difference media blasting. This really dark blue one (which this person's camera screw up with wrong light metering when taking picture) is not from the provider that got choose. But anyway, it look not even that bad in person, here's a picture of it next to Weaven, which do it (some) justice:Show Image(http://i.imgur.com/oJlMsRR.jpg)I know my place is open (a cafe for computer modding - mostly custom build and watercool) but for someone taking pictures a prototype piece that I keep in the cabinet (not actively showing), see it not good and not confront me about it right there at that moment is even weirder :eek: Not in the mood for conspiracy stuff right now, lolz.
UPDATE: so it's from my friend's facebook here (https://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=1369164743100595&id=100000212482513) who clearly state that's a prototype and he love it. He take bad pictures of a tattered prototype when I'm not there, but what's with "have on my hand" stuff here from you? :rolleyes:

To clarify:Are you in HCM :-o ? How can you know i was or not your cafe shop.
- I have not seen none order with 4 kit, if you have any, please state whom you order from so that I can happily cancel your order as your wish.
- There's a thing called "prototype", we're testing for more media blast and anodizing facilities, but it is our responsibility to assure final product will have quality from the level of Weaven round 1 (which I can happily inform you none of our customer has complain about ;) ) to better, finger cross. ;)
- Please state if it's true you took these photos, from our understand this is some impression pics (which taken by phone, so, potatoes) from a friend of ours when we first showed him this at our workshop, Facebook link was posted above, I can gladly confirm that this is not your final product nor belong to you so it's either you taken pic from other person without asking for permission or complain about something you don't buy or even don't "have on your hand" is really a premature move. :thumb:
I don't mind, everything I do in the group buys is 100% transparent, this is our 2nd and 3rd (taking Weaven 2 into account also) so you can check the old thread how we worked, we even inform our customers when faults happened beforehand and offer replacement when expectation not met. So we're confident in our product and service.
Every questions will be willingly answered :thumb:
//Judging from the name, I can't hardly remember if you actually drop by our workshop giving the place was small and I know pretty much enough people there, so don't tell story you don't have if it was the case man ;)

I don't take those pics but that's quite clear to see about the anodize
I just disappointed about it. If I biased or something like that, i never order 4 peices like that. Btw , i still wait for better demo or prototype of you.
I just see it and want people know about that. Just my comment and disappointed about that because I don't know the final product will be better than that or not.

Yep, Bazh currently in HCMC for summer break.
Also, if you're in my cafe and take it out of the cabinet without Mr.Ban, me or Bazh there then I have even more reasons to have problems with you.
Ngt said "I have never had neither anodized aluminium nor sandblasted acrylic at hand", to which nguyenkimtam replied "I have on my hand so i just give my comment about that". All nguyenkimtam means is that he has other Alu/Anodised boards.I was genuinely asking because I have never had neither anodized aluminium nor sandblasted acrylic at hand so I cannot say just by watching at the pictures otherwise I would not have asked the questions. I don't know what to expect from "good quality anodizing" or "good quality acrylic".I have on my hand so i just give my comment about that. That's not what I thought when i saw the render pics or any demo pics. I'm so disappointed so i don't want many people feel that when they received it
It simple :D you said that you saw that today, and you had it on your hands. Guess what, me and foggy were in the shop the whole day and we were taking pictures. ;D
It's cool that you bring it here, any questions about product quality will be answer as clear as possible. It's just that jumping into assumption based on a product we not deliver to end-users and "warning" everyone here seems not to do much with logic eh?
If you actually have been in the shop, and somehow got your hands onto these, I guess you're a friend close enough with the shop, either way if you really got a chance to touch these, why not freely express your concern right there then ;) There's no way we would hide anything from you if it's really the case.
Ok just skip it , i'm not an anti of you guys , i just disappointed and still wait the better prototype from you.
If i anti i never ordered a big quantities like that.

If you have it in hand without three people in charge, then I have a cafe's management problem.
If you have it in hand with me there, then you should ask me about the quality since you ordered four (and I don't even know you), we have communication problem.
If you not have it in hand and said you did then I have you as my problem.
Not like I can skip any of above ;)

Perhaps he referred to the pictures and not the case itself. There might have been a misunderstood at first.
I have another question about the fully assembled option.We're trying to provide you fully assembling so you don't have to pay separately at several places and wait for several shipping, that means we'll try to get all the Zealios here and assemble the board and you only have to pay us for the whole thing :thumb:
If I want zealio switches, should I order them separately from Zeal on his website? Or you'll add the additional cost of the switches from him (hopefully the GB price) and I'll just pay you all at once?

I don't think that have a good anodization and a good quality acrylic caseShow Image(http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160527/d5052a8511bf2a832f564b730200fcd9.jpg)
Just to be sure: this is compatible with the kc60 (https://www.massdrop.com/buy/kc60-mechanical-keyboard (https://www.massdrop.com/buy/kc60-mechanical-keyboard)), rigth?yeeeep. pretty much all 60% cases fit with a 60% pcb/plate since its much more standardized
1. We use 2x3x4 switch mount led like this (http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/61uc1oiE7qL._SX355_.jpg) one.
2. RGB led will require a pcb that supported it, wkl.kr doesn't have any pcb with it. If you know any board that do it currently in stock, we can buy and assem for you with that one.
3. Currently there's only winkey version for Lustro, so no need for any specification.
If I could make a suggestion, I think that the acrylic part could use some improvement. Right now, it's just essentially a plastic box with fancy legs on either side.
I think that this could be improved if you took the concept present in the legs, with the triangle, angled shapes and applied them to the acrylic part as well, to try and make the whole thing work together a lot better. For example, you could have it taper a bit, you could have it follow a similar shape, etc.
Just an idea to hopefully help you guys along :thumb:

Is that a GXS60RGB board? I ordered one off Aliexpress but couldn't find any info on it anywhere, any chance you know anything about it?
Edit: Disregard my question, I should haveread the last page before posting.
foggyflute since that was your friend: Any chance he has any info on that board or you perhaps.
Hey guys, are there any requests for a white anodization color at the moment? Would love a nice pure or even off-white :)

Yes it is, we ordered a lot kind of 60% to study more about the layout and what you can do with it, resulting in we have a lot laying around so we just randomly pick one to put in the prototype :P
I don't know what info you want about the board, for functional it is an interesting practice of getting use of the RGB SMD LEDs for the switches without the need of using Cherry MX RGB one, the LED is placed on PCB's back side and illuminate the switch through a hole cut on the PCB, by that way it can be used with any clear cased Cherry MX compatible switches such as Gateron for example.
So I wanted to make a few changes to my order, how should I do this?

I wanted to know if it was programmable? Both the led effects as well as its firmware, perhaps tmk compatible?
Thanks for any info you can provide

feel free to PM me ;)
We did try something else with the acrylic base, here is some thoughs and reasons why it look so basic:
Acrylic is a hard but brittle material so anything that weakening the structure are out of options, that led to part and feature need to be somewhat bulky to be reasonable sturdy. We tested out several design but too much bulkiness to four sides decrease the aesthetic too, and adding features to the back is not worth the effort since we not see them in use anyway. It not possible for the current 60, but I have something interesting for the up coming hhkb since I have more room to play on the front side.
And the side stands design are not fixed, there will be more option to choose in near future, it worth keeping the base low profile so it go well with many other bold stand design.
Finally, Lustro meant to be budget option of the line-up (Weaven cost more for snug-fit modular parts and excessive use of carbon and still nothing compare to some of our concepts). Any design that drive the cost up are carefully calculated before available for IC and GB.
I love talking about design so it maybe longer response than needed, haha.
PS we waiting for smokey prototype too.
just an idea, but what about a thin layer of diffusal at the bottom of the case for the clear/smoky acryic?
Polycarbonate diffuser?just an idea, but what about a thin layer of diffusal at the bottom of the case for the clear/smoky acryic?
The thick bottom did a great job already, but I will try some reflective sticker to keep the light bouncing, maybe?
You're using the WKL pcbs right? Those are programmable with their client keymapper but not through TMK afaik (I have a B.Face)I don't think that have a good anodization and a good quality acrylic caseShow Image(http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160527/d5052a8511bf2a832f564b730200fcd9.jpg)

Just submitted an order! Venturing into the custom KB world ;D To make sure, last mentioned was no need to order Zealios separately and send Zeal the order #s for the Lustro and Zealios...correct?

Gunmetal was a voted for color - more grey than silver - so you would probably need to specify it in the 'other' field...

That's the assumption I would make. Silver was one of the default choices and, as far as I know, they didn't actually get samples of any of the 'custom' colors yet - so I do believe that would be anodized silver (I suppose an untreated aluminum sample is possible however).
is this still alive? :pThink they're sorting out the orders and prepping. Bazh said we'll be getting emails for invoices a few days after GB closes when I PM'd him a few days back.

I remember reading something like that in the thread as well. As Fancymans said, this takes work to organize a GB even though we are not hundreds. Be patient a bit. ;)
It's nice to know people are starting to get invoices. Eager to get my own!
This is invoice for your order of Weaven keyboard case Round 2:
- Winkeyless version
- Purple-Gunmetal-Purple color
- ANSI plate
Estimating turn over time less than 8 weeks. You'll get a notification when the case is ready to ship.
Please check the order detail above and only pay if it's right.

Not going to lie, I have been waiting quite impatiently myself - I even thought about posting yesterday to ask if anyone else had been invoiced.
It came about 0130 (CST); the 'message from seller' was as follows in case anyone is curious (emphasis mine):QuoteThis is invoice for your order of Weaven keyboard case Round 2:

Looks like we may be looking at early August if not a little sooner. Hoping for mid-July myself - just in time for my birthday (it'll help my justify the expense to myself)!
Yeah, I was actually a little surprised by how fast this will seemingly be done - and they seemed to have been pretty good about scheduling for round 1.
My thing about group buys has always been the communication. Once that falters, it seems like everything is all doom and gloom.
I am going to throw a GH60 into mine - no need for lighting really, not on the Weaven, along with some R3 Zealio (so I am waiting on those anyways).
Really want to see what everyone's looks like once they're built.

Cool beans. I was thinking about switching to the Weaven too, but then I decided not to because the Lustro has those cool looking stands. I'm going for a Mirror's Edge theme on my keyboard, so all white/red with white LEDs. :) Too bad the Zealios are purple, but it's worth it for the feelios.
The best part about the Lustro (IMO) is that it is modular - I am looking forward to seeing what other stands come up in the future! To a lesser degree, it is the same with the Weaven (hoping for a brown/purple HHKB setup eventually).
Red/White is a nice color scheme - I am assuming red stands; what set of caps you trying to throw on there? The stems will be covered, so no one will see your purple secret - wish I could have them on display though! On a side note, grab a couple green blanks/artisans and you'll have a nice set up to run during Christmas too!

Was going to get blank DSA caps from Signature Plastics. Red modifiers, white for alphanumeric. I'll see what others profiles are available in terms of caps. Do you know if the stabilizers will be Cherry or Costar? Or does the CF plate support both? Costar doesn't play nice with some of my PBT caps. :(

Could always try to find some Linear Zeals if you want the quality that Zeal switches have but still fit the White/Red theme. Obviously won't be the same as the Tactiles, but hey.

We are working on orders shorting, invoice will be sent out to each group with same type of order in next week.
But as we usually do, production always started ahead ;)Show Image(http://i.imgur.com/oyDKxoz.jpg)
Hi guys, sorry for miscommunicate the last couple of days, my laptop's broken so things getting slow down a bit.
About invoicing progress: so far all of people who order winkeyless Weaven are the only to receive invoice. Next in plan is the rest of the Weaven and the Lustro order that does not come with assembling parts, people with assembling parts will be last since I have to calculate the total cost for parts too, sorry for that I hope you understand :(
Hope we can get the invoicing and payment done in next week ;)

Wow so cool! That must be quite an investment doing it without invoicing people beforehand! Correct me if I'm wrong but that's the stands as before anodizing, am I right?
Thanks for letting us know btw.

At first I thought it was the silver standing but then I noticed there are too many of them, that's why I asked. :) Thanks for answering.Any updates?

Hehe thanks. Do you know if you'll have pictures to show the difference between the frosted and smoky? Or is the difference about the touch of the acrylic itself? frosted = rubbed acrylic and smoky = smooth opaque acrylic?
Hi guys, everyone who wants their kit comes with part including PCB and switches but not assembled please check the order list again to make sure your requests are included in the list, if it's not shown please PM asap so I can start counting quantity of those components and ordering them.

If the list has it quoted at 150 but has the LED and Switch components listed correctly then all is good for not assembled but PCB and switches/LEDs included?

Yes if you chose assembled I would put 180 there, that's the base price I put there to keep track for invoicing, then part costs will be added later when I send the invoice :thumb:
Smokey coating acrylic base is back.
Good new: it smokey, just like real smokey acrylic which we not able to secure since the MoQ for it would be something north of 500 keyboards. Smooth edges.Show Image(http://i.imgur.com/sSMgTzT.jpg)
Bad new: led so faint that not even able to light up the bottom part of the case.Show Image(http://i.imgur.com/xr8YDqL.jpg)
We will pass on this option.
Does it mean smokey acrylic will not be possible at all or do you have other option for it? Thanks for the picture.
Oh alright. I guess we'll see if the opportunity arises.Does it mean smokey acrylic will not be possible at all or do you have other option for it? Thanks for the picture.
Yes, it not possible, we will continue looking for acrylic source that accept lower MoQ, if it possible then there will be a group buy for it.

Just to clarify: I'm still totally fine with it being normal layout though, so no biggies :D

Will the carbon fiber plate support switch opening? Because I'm afraid I'll not like the switch so I'd like the option to mod it myself too.Yes it can :thumb:

- PCB will be $68 kit from winkeyless
- 100 LEDs ($5)
- 70 switches ($0.75 each)

75¢ per switch, even for Gaterons? If this is the case, I don't think I'm going to do full assembly anymore.

Well, all of them are milky bottom with clear top but not have space for SMD rgb LED below like cherry RGB, they have a version with 4 pin rgb LED as I remember. I will need to check back if that's what you need.

Can you make sandblasted acrylic back plate for Weaven as an option instead of CF?
I will need to test the 1.5mm acrylic to see if it sturdy enough first, it really easy to crack and we also have to press the pcb down to the back plate with the anti-slip mat in between, that's how it was designed. Maybe an acrylic plate under skeletonized carbon/steel frame or cut out for led diffuse. I will working on that.Either bazh or pear_voz, pm me if you need help with technical stuff.

I'd be interested in adding a set of orange stands to my order also.
Did Orange make it for production? If so I would like to change my Order to Orange, I just ordered an Overcast keycap set from massdrop and would like the case to match.

Orange did make it into final. We will have some surplus for final QC, I will notice you guys about that after checking our inventory in a few next days.
If there's no surplus, we will order more raw materials and do an extended run right after current one finish CNC :)

We buying everyone cherry pcb mount stab also charge lower price than you buy them from wkl.kr since we buy them in bulk, our plate currently support only pcbmount, and i dont remember any 60% pcb doesnt include mount hole for those.
Personally I dislike the plate mount, but if anyone need those, we have them and plate that support them as well, as a company we aim to serve everyone taste :)

What's the difference between PCB mount and plate mount stabilizers? Do they feel different, or is it just a preference on how you build a board?

Just my experience that the plate mount stabs are louder, on metal plate of course (Corsair), never touch them since then except Alps builds.

Does the PCB/case support HHKB layout by any chance?
Hrm, my payment was sent 6/9. Sent you a PM with the PayPal transaction ID.
Couldn't find this anywhere. What is the length and height of the case? Top down dimensions I guess. Looking into wrist rests :PBazh or foggy or anyone else got these measurements?

How are things going?
Sorry, I will give you the exact measurement when I get home, the heigh is around 25mm from surface to keycap bottom but you probably not need the palm rest as thick as that, width is arround 300-305mm. Thick and soft palm rest is recommended, really good for me so far.Couldn't find this anywhere. What is the length and height of the case? Top down dimensions I guess.

You can say so, we're pretty much wrapping up the CNC process, as of today all the LUSTRO stands are done, Weaven is 80% and we only have LUSTRO acrylic base left, but that can be done in the time we move on to sandblasting and anodizing aluminum parts. :thumb:

For everyone with zelios and gateron (clear-top), aesthetically pleasing so no reason for not to (tested for sound, fitting and it's okay though).
It's unlucky for us that Zeal's clear stabs are not available yet, I believe Zeal's gonna be superior to these, but this will do for now.
That. Looks. Amazing. The bottom lighting is RGB? I thought only single color was available. Is it too late to request mine to also have RGB underglow?RGB underside LEDs is available as default on B.face X2 :thumb:
And any PCB will reflect to the bottom and side, cause it's Acrylic - Optical Fiber, or Glass like! :oThat. Looks. Amazing. The bottom lighting is RGB? I thought only single color was available.

Minor update:
Due to some people backing out of the GB, we have some spot available now in case anyone missed the GB still want the case, now is the time to shoot me a PM and I can sneak you in to the list ;)
Everyone who order the case fully assembled please send me your desired layout, best is to use www.keyboard-layout-editor.com and extract the JPG and send it to :D Also specify the switches position for keys such as capslock (centered/off-centered) and spacebars (middle/Cherry's old righty position)

Slightly off topic but getting ready to build! How useful is it to have a soldering station with controllable temperature versus a good single temp iron? Like an edsyn cl1481 vs a sx251 i believe it is.

That's alright foggyflute. I always expect delays with GBs. Thank you for such strict QA and attention to the details!
The upside is we will definitely have a slim case style (similar to tex) in near future, due to having alot of 23mm thick acrylic there... but we not gonna do something had been done to death so maybe 40% case with a little supprise ;)A bit low profile might better to the trend, IMO foggy! ;) Nice Job!
Beautiful ! Bazh ! ;)
How do You polish or finish the surface at Your factory? as it looks amazing !
Very Proper approach! IMO
The sandblasted surface may get dirt easily, but depends on the technique as You know :)
I am expecting a wonderful outcome! :thumb:

weaven will be fine i'm assuming?just curious but what are the shipping date estimates for this and weaven?
Oh I have a horror story was about to tel everyone.
We are expecting some delay (about 1.5-2 more week compare to estimate 7-8weeks) due to acrylic blocks that I bought was not thick as spec said.
Our acrylic case thickness is 21.5mm from case bottom to a little bit higher than keycap bottoms. For that thickness, 25mm thick block would be sufficient, we think it will actually run from 24mm to 24.5mm. When they arrived, almost half of the blocks are only about 23 - 23.5mm, which is not good enough since we need to machine the surface for uniform thickness. After some unsuccessful to get the acrylic provider get them replace, we decide to order the replacement needed from someone else, with myself measure them with digital caliper before paying.
Surprisingly, most of them are close to 24mm or even 23.8. We can only measure the edge of the un-cut sheet so no way to know if they're all thick enough at areas far from the edge. After some calculations, we decide to go for 30mm thick acrylic so plenty of room for thickness error.
But that's come with a cost other than little higher material price. Most of them are true 30mm, not an block thinner than 29mm! I was expected them to be around 27 to 27.5mm (due to our experience with 25mm thick ones).
Now we have downtime due to halting for faulty ones, wait time for those new 30mm arrived, and 5mm more to shave down each block which is a lots since we run carefully so no chipping on acrylic - a hard but brittle material.
:(
weaven will be fine i'm assuming?just curious but what are the shipping date estimates for this and weaven?
Oh I have a horror story was about to tel everyone.
We are expecting some delay (about 1.5-2 more week compare to estimate 7-8weeks) due to acrylic blocks that I bought was not thick as spec said.
Our acrylic case thickness is 21.5mm from case bottom to a little bit higher than keycap bottoms. For that thickness, 25mm thick block would be sufficient, we think it will actually run from 24mm to 24.5mm. When they arrived, almost half of the blocks are only about 23 - 23.5mm, which is not good enough since we need to machine the surface for uniform thickness. After some unsuccessful to get the acrylic provider get them replace, we decide to order the replacement needed from someone else, with myself measure them with digital caliper before paying.

Any updates on the acrylic you needed to reorder?
Do we know anything about around when the barebones kit should be arriving?
Any update? :D
So you say that North America shipments will be handled by Zeal, does that mean hes going to try and use DHL overnight and charge us like $75 to ship from canada? Ive dealt with zeal in the past, and his shipping is handled pretty poorly (no options, overcharging, etc).
I want to get in on this but if Zeal is proxying, im expecting to see a $75 shipping invoice.
To offer a different perspective (in case this post deters anyone from ordering - especially if they were going to order purple), Zeal's name is part of the reason I decided to join this buy. He charges ~15$ from Canada to the US and I have never felt he has 'overcharged.'
I have been in three other group buys regarding Zeal (proxy for SPRiT, 1st round Zealio, and now, 3rd round Zealio) and he has delivered everytime - even with the SPRiT stuff that I think some people STILL haven't received... and he replaced a plate for me during that buy when I told him he didn't have to.
I am sorry that you seem to have had issues with him in the past.
Longshot, but if there are any extras or orders that have been backed out of, I'd love to pick one up! Likewise if anyone wants to sell their spot ~
Great looking design! :-*

I picked up an extra set of sides which I could part with assuming you can get the rest.

Someone contacted me about a possible full/standard sized kit order transfer but thank you! I will keep in this in mind should it fall through / I want a different color side panel~

They're for sale right now on Zeal's site, if you're willing to wait for them and build when everything arrives. I bought some clear stabs for myself, but it's going to be for a different build. :)

my baord is being put together by bazh though so I'll probably have to take it apart and desolder everything, not really worth it at this time :(, maybe in the future though.

Hey just catch some time weekends.
Haven't talked to foggy much this week, just catch up with him this morning, he caught some allegy earlier the week so had to take some days off. Sorry for unable to inform you guys earlier.
Man so much bad luck even things are almost done :(
Any chance of an update? Considering it has been a while since an update here in comparison to the Weaven thread.

I don't mind delays, but good communication only becomes more important as a GB drags on past its estimated end date.

Yeah exactly. I just find it bizarre that a lot of group buys have poor communication. Delays happen and I am fine with that. But when they do happen it seems like most of the time the group buy runners communicate less and less. Like they are trying to avoid the situation. You just have to look at Ellipse's F62F77 group buy which has had a big delay. But his communication has been so frequent and simply fantastic that I am not bothered by the huge delay.
Hopefully we get an update soon.
I shouldn't laugh, but I did. :(Show Image(http://i.imgur.com/jzc9UkS.gif)
We're sr for the late shipping, but the estimate shipping date would be next week
From the Weaven thread earlier today:Quote from: pear_vozWe're sr for the late shipping, but the estimate shipping date would be next week
Assuming the plan is to still have both Weaven and Lustro shipped at the same time, I figured I would post that quote here as well (in case some of you don't check the Weaven thread).
Update and progress is still progress :) had zeal hold all my orders to ship together and save some cost. Will have a Lustro and Black Bird to build!

You guys are so lucky! Can't wait for mine. Hopefully US gets their tracking numbers soon.

I believe we still have to pay for shipping from Zeal though, as he is doing the final leg for NA orders. Basically, it won't be an unexpected tracking number.

Hi guys, I'd like to give you some update about current situation.
If you remember the update some times ago I have mention foggy had caught ill, turned out it was worse than a normal flu, it's been weeks that he's been in and out of the hospital. Currently dude still in the hospital, this explained the delay works.
I just learnt about his condition last week since I'm now not in Vietnam, the communication is somewhat limited. I have my friends contact him and he's alright, expect to get out soon.
Regardless of that, we can't just sit and wait, I also worry about finishing this buy. I have asked my friends for help and our friend pearvoz have agreed to lend a hand. He will travel to Ho Chi Minh City on 15th to help out with the shipping. In the meantime if foggy could recover sooner we continued it with no further reason to hold up.
This is an unfortunate news I would never want to give you. It is bad for both, because waiting sucks. On our ends we also don't to keep the stock for too long since it only costs us more on storage fee as time expand, and storing nearly 200 cases is really nervous for **** happen.
I'll keep you updated and communication with the buys, thank you for supporting us and hope you would understand. We're doing our best to finish this as soon as possible to move on with other project we have planned.

Where'd you hear that? Zeal is aware of this GB and his involvement in it. I actually spoke with him at the Massdrop Meetup in SF about it.

Hi everyone,
As you may well known from Bazh's last update, foggy has felt sick, so I'm here to help and take over the handling and shipping work.
About foggy, dude have been diagnosed with autoimmune disease, which is kind of serious health problem if you don't know yet. Poor guy got so bad luck that the disease kick in at the trachea, which cause him hard to breathe and have to go to the hospital like everyday. Even Bazh has not caught up with his condition for foggy has very little communicate with everyone, even friends here in Vietnam, even I didn't know about it till Bazh's recently update and asking. So there's that, the GB was delayed for this but let's hope the guy will be okay and hopefully the doctors were wrong.
Back to the GB, I've just arrived in HCMC yesterday, after a day visiting foggy now I has had access to the office, everything is still here hopefully. I'll start packing things and quoting price for you guys immediately. There's a lot of keyboard cases here and fortunately foggy has done all the prepare work so hopefully things will go smoothly. I'll do my best to help so bare with me if it's a bit slow or something I'm not sure. It's the first time I deal with this much product at once.
Cheers,
Pearvn.
These order from Asia/Australia will be deliver a little bit quicker cause I sent it directly, the tracking number will be send to you guys when I come back in Hanoi next week. Thank you for your patience. Hope to see you guys in the next group buy.

One of my friends spoke with Zeal on the shipment and apparently there was some issue with the initial shipment and it didn't even end up leaving Vietnam. Zeal said yesterday that he hasn't heard anything about the shipment after that which was about 1 week ago. Kinda worrying that there is no communication between us and the Lustro team and between Zeal and the Lustro team.
Yeah I am not sure what has happened. I kept asking to see whether they can ship mine before I go overseas. Finally I managed to get a reply on the 6th of December and they said it has been shipped.
I have asked can I have some sort of tracking or confirmation of it being shipped. I haven't got a reply. Usually I should have got it by now from Vietnam to Australia. Nothing yet so far. Communication has been so poor from this group buy.
I feel the current situation is due to Froggy's health problem which may have complicated the GB for the rest of the team as they seem not to be as available as he was.I bought in late, so I havent been waiting long and I'm not too worried about it. The thing is, there is never a good excuse for a lack of communication. It's simply neglect.
I don't think this GB could be compared to Ivan's as some have received their cases (including me). I could show pictures if some want proofs. Remember that even when facing real company like Massdrop etc. we still have to face delays so with a little structure like theirs (I'm not even sure they created a company) it's still possible. I feel they are doing their best to deliver but they have to deal with their own personal life too as it doesn't seem to be their main job. I know it is hard guys, I'm waiting on my CF-LX from more than a year now but keep faith. :)

I contacted Zeal on the status and this is what he said:
" No word from pear_voz yet, last I talked to him he said he was going to fly to the customs office before Christmas to work out the customs tax cause they weren't happy with the underdeclared value..."
While I understand that there have been complications due to health, I do not think it is acceptable to have to talk to the shipping proxy for a response. Zeal has received many questions about the status of the Lustro because the people who run the thread have neglected to do so. Can we see some better communication between those running the GB? Even if it isn't much of an update, I would like to know something about where my order is or what has happened to it.
Any news?
Hey guys, Good news! I just had a nice chat with bazh. I'm one of the participants in the group buy, and I have a quite an order. Bazh just came back from Holiday, and he should be shipping out NA orders to zeal soon. It's moving forward! A little more patience and we'll all get our 60% goodies :)
Bazh will be available on GH later today.

This is really disappointing that we had to get updates from Zeal and Sherry. I don't know about others, but I was pretty sure our money was gone.
Hi friends,There would be no issue if someone had simply posted an update.
Sorry I just come back from my holiday trip despite stuffs not getting done yet because the trip is planned months ahead.
As for the last time I post, pear_voz did come and help but he didn't get enough time and still have business with his own company so he had to leave soon.

Here's 2 large box, one of which will go straight to Zeal. Other is for Sherry order and non-CONUS order.
Since pear_voz has left for his hometown, we've been looking for some one to hire to complete the shipping stuff. You know it's not like I just hire some random guy since this is a large number of keyboard with (relatively) high value so. Anyway, we had one will do it. The boxes now currently sit at our friend's office, who also have been out of town because he's on an Intel's event for PC modding, which took places some days ago and now they're on special trip after-event. Expecting him to come back in the next couple of days then we can proceed. Also, pear_voz will continue to handling more directly than I will since he's closer thus the timezone would be more appropriate to work on the matter.
Please I know this is unacceptable that the buy is way too long now, but please believe in us. This is a very unfortunate situation we have and I, as some one who just start to get into the market, is very frustrated right now, kinda panic. We will deliver our products as promised since there's no reason the product won't come to you, it's just a matter of bad luck keep happening. I have to work out everything remotely so things just not going as smooth as I thought it would be.
We're definitely moving forward as we're still keyboard lovers and still have many more things we want to do up our sleeves. We'll sort this out at our best for the moment.
Again this is beyond embarrassing, I'm deeply sorry everyone affected by the delay for the inconvenience, hope you understand the situation I am currently in. Please have faith in us that we're doing everything to deliver these buys.

Totally I agree, I'm sorry the past weeks I was not on GH regular enough to give you updates.Hi friends,There would be no issue if someone had simply posted an update.
Sorry I just come back from my holiday trip despite stuffs not getting done yet because the trip is planned months ahead.
As for the last time I post, pear_voz did come and help but he didn't get enough time and still have business with his own company so he had to leave soon. Good thing all the boxes then have been moved to new place just waiting to be transfered to the post office.Show Image(https://scontent-arn2-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t35.0-12/15820879_1288893777798575_1319077632_o.jpg?oh=e9f78c6a178502d24cb21ec9584de5c2&oe=587B1F54)Show Image(https://scontent-arn2-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t35.0-12/15878038_1288893771131909_1298787786_o.jpg?oh=27473a1396a7c4d8d62cd1a93da4ef81&oe=587B2393)
Here's 2 large box, one of which will go straight to Zeal. Other is for Sherry order and non-CONUS order.
Since pear_voz has left for his hometown, we've been looking for some one to hire to complete the shipping stuff. You know it's not like I just hire some random guy since this is a large number of keyboard with (relatively) high value so. Anyway, we had one will do it. The boxes now currently sit at our friend's office, who also have been out of town because he's on an Intel's event for PC modding, which took places some days ago and now they're on special trip after-event. Expecting him to come back in the next couple of days then we can proceed. Also, pear_voz will continue to handling more directly than I will since he's closer thus the timezone would be more appropriate to work on the matter.
Please I know this is unacceptable that the buy is way too long now, but please believe in us. This is a very unfortunate situation we have and I, as some one who just start to get into the market, is very frustrated right now, kinda panic. We will deliver our products as promised since there's no reason the product won't come to you, it's just a matter of bad luck keep happening. I have to work out everything remotely so things just not going as smooth as I thought it would be.
We're definitely moving forward as we're still keyboard lovers and still have many more things we want to do up our sleeves. We'll sort this out at our best for the moment.
Again this is beyond embarrassing, I'm deeply sorry everyone affected by the delay for the inconvenience, hope you understand the situation I am currently in. Please have faith in us that we're doing everything to deliver these buys.

:( :( :(
"There was an issue, were working on it. Shipping will be delayed."
"Still working on the issue, no eta."
"Looks like another couple weeks to get them shipped out. Sorry guys, Ill keep you in the loop."
There's no reason at all that you or someone else couldn't have taken 2 minutes every couple days to let everyone know that there was a problem but it's being worked out.
I'm not angry, I'm just saying man.

Hi,
The last few days I've been reevaluating the options since I still didn't feel like hand over the process to some one who's not much familiar with the GB concept and this forum. So I think I would ask for help for sorting and handling from people on here (and in the US). The idea is to ship the whole parcel with all of your case to the proxy so he can help me double check on the sorting and then shipping.I already in talk with Sherraton (Originative) about this and he agreed to help. I haven't asked Zeal (as the original planned proxy for the GB) yet because I felt like the extra work is just too much to ask for, dude has been awesome supporting us from the start. :D
If you're all ok with the new solution then I'll proceed. Then the shipping scene is:
- NA orders will pay parts of VN-US and US domestic shipping fee as planned before.
- non-NA orders will only pay from-US shipping fee, the VN-US fee of these orders are on us.
Please tell me your opinion on the matter, would you be okay with this, and would you be okay if we go with this with Sherraton?

Would the shipping price be higher? I'd rather go with whoever has the cheaper price for within the U.S. Also, if this was going to be a possibility, it would have been better to alert us sooner. I've had Zeal hold onto one of my shipments for many many months at this point in hopes of combining it with my lustro. That being said, I really appreciate the update--although do you have an estimated date for this to be shipped out?
The other option available is to let pear_voz continue with the handling/shipping since he plan to come to our place next week and this time he'll be able to stay for a month (that's what I've been told). If we go this route then everything would proceed as first planned (Zeal NA proxy, non-NA order shipping from Vietnam)I'm also waiting on stuff from Zeal to save on shipping, but I'd rather just get it shipped to NA as soon as possible and eat the shipping costs. Since there isn't a dedicated person to handle things over there, better to just move it to avoid any further delays/issues.

Personally, I don't want to have pear_voz dealing with things again due to a lack of communication with us. Many of us sent him PMs regarding the status of this GB after he said they were shipped and still never got responses. Sherry has a lot of experience and at this point I feel better going with someone I trust. I have nothing against pear_voz as a person, but I want a trusted community member to deal with our orders.

Many of you were hoping to LUSTRO this ship along with an order from Zeal, but I feel like that shouldn't influence who we choose to be a proxy for this order. It would have been great if things worked out as they should have, but they haven't. I strongly feel that if we choose to have pear_voz handle shipment again, things will not change. We shouldn't let the success of this GB ride on the cost of shipping from another vendor's order.
If Zeal would agree to help organize the bulk shipment, then I too would like to have things ship from him. But the choices are (correct me if I'm wrong):
- Keep things as is, pear_voz will (again) double check on sorting and ship to Zeal as a proxy who will handle US orders. Other orders shipped directly from Vietnam.
- Ship to Sherry who will double check on sorting and ship to both US and orders outside US.

Yes this is the scenarios right now.
Please keep telling me what you think, I'm still listening to come up with the right solution for everyone, given how messy things are right now we might still have to compromise a little bit.
at this point i just kinda want a refund lol, got through my 60% phase quite fast

back to TKLs haha, i cant not have dedicated arrow keys
**** I forgot to update again. Sorry this week I has been working extra hours all week long so got not much time.
Hey from what I heard from both the GB thread looks like we will go ưith the Originative proxy route, I'm in talk with Sherry to finalize things and prepare to ship.
Expected to have the whole thing shipped to Sherry within 1-2 week.
If anyone has one for sale I'm willing to buy it off you + toss some extra cash your way. PM if you have one, thanks.
I'm also in the spreadsheet is wrong territory. I took over a spot and just talked to zeal directly...hopefully Sheraton can do the same because I don't have much hope it'll be handled on this end.
Participants,
I tried to get in touch with bazh the last couple of days. He said he would have it shipped this week on February 21st, but I have not gotten a reply from him since. I'll try to send an email to see what's up.

As long as it's just an address change and not someone buying your spot, I should be able handle it. Definitely PM me, but you may have to PM me again when I'm about to make shipment as I do not have a list of addresses yet.

If anyone decides to drop out, I'd be interested in picking up a spot :]

At this point, if you buy a spot into this GB, you would effectively be saving someone from being scammed and taking the burden for yourself. My advice would be to turn around, run away as fast as you can and never look back.
I contacted Bazh on reddit a couple weeks back and he responded, but he has since stopped contact. Bazh has no excuse this time. At least with the triC buy, lunaris was kind to give us some stuff in compensation for the long wait times. Bazh has 0 communication, flat out lied to us, and then disappears. I don't think we will get scammed as they already made the cases, and just have to ship them.Man I hope yall get the cases soon. I was really excited to see people's builds with these

except Sherryton hasn't received them yet, so it's moreso an issue with bazh not shipping out, or it being shipped by rowboat.
Hi,Hi,
How is it possible for Bazh to still be active on reddit, but ignore GH? Also, can you give us a firm estimate for shipping that you can be held accountable for? We've been deceived two times already and I'm sure you can understand the frustration. On another note, thank you for letting us know you are taking over the project. This gives me more assurance that we will eventually get our keyboards.

The estimate shipping date would be 31/3. I hope I can make it faster so we can move on :D About Bazh's lacking communication, I can not talk for him but maybe he's got some problems :( btw, I really understand that you guys, our customer, don't want to be pissed off this time. Cheers!

Would like some kind of proof that you are who you say you are, this GB has me quite jaded.
Hi everyone, from now i will be the man who response for everything. Bazh was out of town for a while and he still not comeback so it's the reason he's not answer. Foggy is getting better and catching up with the work. Pear was assigned to work on the upcoming project. So the new shipping schedule will be the last day of this month, every order will be checked again and the process was done halfway. I will update everyday and answer your question asap, just send me a message. Thank you.
Right now I'm in Hanoi with Pear to take over his previous work, then tomorrow night I will come to visit Foggy in HCMC and then you will have picture of Lustro, Weaven and timestamp and everything. As I said before, from now I will handle all of the shipping, packing, you guys can PM pear, bazh, foggy to discuss abt new products, technical problems or feedback abt what you like or what you don't like about the keyboard, what do you wanna change in the future...etc, but PM me if you want to know about tracking number, shipping or packing. Thank you!
Just arrived late night yesterday in HCMC, right now I'm in the office, will post a picture with timestamp and of course, the keyboard for you guys asap

Right, I agree that you shouldn't be responsible for any of the products until you get them.
However, what I meant to ask was if you can confirm whether or not Triviumtek has communicated with you directly about the shipping details, and whether or not you're still going to be the NA proxy if they arrive to you.

Hi there, I'm from non-NA (Malaysia), should I be expecting shipment soon as well? Haven't kept up with this thread for some time now.Yes, your keyboard will be sent directly via Kerry Express or VNPost, I will get the quotation and comeback later tomorrow. Every orders doesn't come from NA will be shipped directly like Mr.Nickysan92. Thank you.
By the way, today was a very busy day but I'm glad to inform you that I've finished packing every keyboards and everything include weaven, lustro, extra parts...etc will be sent tomorrow morning. Thank you for joining Triviumtek GroupBuy.

Hey guys, just a minor update.
I haven't gotten these in yet, but I am anticipating some delayed shipping times. Currently, we're working to push out the Sky Dolch and the TADA68's. We plan to ship out the lustro/weaven as soon as we fulfill all sky dolch and tada orders.

They are arriving tomorrow. I don't think bazh have collected shipment yet. I was going to make them do it, but it may be faster if I do it.
Do you guys know if you guys have made payment for shipping yet?
Either they send me the payments, or I can start collecting payments. I can start weighing items tomorrow.
If you want to add items from our store (for the cheaper/free shipping, let me know as well).

IIRC, shipping was not included in the original invoice. It needed to be calculated after the items were done and shipped to NA (so we still need invoices for them).
Maybe this has been asked before... But are there going to be any extras available? :rolleyes:
I'll try to confirm the list of emails, and I will send out a link to these emails for people to purchase the shipping!

Threw that ***** on rainbow mode immediately lol.
My assembled Lustro keyboard arrived today. There was only a single screw holding the PCB to the case. I'll try to post some pics once I scrounge up some screws and reassemble lol
My assembled board arrived today too. 2 screws were loose and fell out. I think the screw holes on the case are actually stripped... And I don't know what's wrong but it's definitely not working out of the box. Plugged it in and Windows says my device might be malfunctioning.
And that's not all, I'm also missing the extra stands I ordered. I'm going to PM Bazh and ask him about it. At this point I doubt it'll ever come, though. Think I'm gonna end up just selling this and cut my losses.

Damn, I'm sorry to hear that :(
I'm pretty sure it's a legit Winkeyless PCB so you might try posting on their forums (Hojin is incredibly responsive over there, and would probably be willing to help even though you didn't get it directly from him). And I'd try contacting Triviumtek Supporter as well about the missing stands, since Bazh has been MIA for quite some time.
got mine, no time to build it at all. didn't get any rubber feet with mine though, wondering if they weren't included or if DHL stole my accessories. I also got a carbon fibre plate which i didn't order

Hi man, I'm checking if we miss your extra stand and don't worry, if we missed sending it, we will send it for you, just don't be panic....
so did any one else not get rubber bumpons/feet for their lustro? I need some =\

My order didn't come with any either. I have spare rubber feet, so I didn't really care. Bought a pack of 100 on Amazon for a few dollars.
Any way to acquire one of these? Anyone not interested in theirs anymore?
>Sherry said they'll post up extras soon on their website I think.
ooh thank you friend!
Any guesstimates on soon? Or is it the infamous Soon(TM)?
Anyone still waiting for sherry to send them sending payments?
Hi there, I'm from non-NA (Malaysia), should I be expecting shipment soon as well? Haven't kept up with this thread for some time now.Yes, your keyboard will be sent directly via Kerry Express or VNPost, I will get the quotation and comeback later tomorrow. Every orders doesn't come from NA will be shipped directly like Mr.Nickysan92. Thank you.

Just an FYI, but the front lip on Lustro is HUGE. However, it's pretty... I have mine but I never use it, LOL!

Case feels pretty solid when assembled. Anode on the stands is pretty nice, however there are noticeable imperfections. On all 4 of my stands there is a visible line (to varying degrees) on the top side of the stand, which I assume is from the anode. One of my stands has some inconsistencies on the outside surface, very slight blemishes (tried a quick clean but no-go). All my stands had bumpons which are very nice, however, they should not have been attached to the stands. If I were to re-anode (which I am considering) I will now have to get new ones. Same for the screws, I don't know why they were assembled in the case. Both should have been packaged separately.
Case itself feels pretty good. Inside is rough but that is not really a concern. There are a couple spots with very small imperfections in the acrylic, clear bubbles where the frosting is not present. They are noticeable, but they should be a non-issue once lit up. Order was missing switches, but hopefully I can get refunded for those.
My board is already assembled but I need to do a bit of work on the switches/plate, will show the final product when I'm done.

Based on the pictures, those marks on the feet appear to be markings on the aluminum that were not polished off before anodizing, it wouldn't be from the anodizing process (assuming that's what you meant, since I think you're referring anodizing as 'anode') You would have to remove the ano, polish, and then refinish to get rid of it.
If you're planning to get it refinished, be prepared to pay a pretty penny..small batches are typically disproportionately expensive, especially for non-black/clear.
Wasn't exactly the color I was expecting when selecting "deep sky blue". If anyone with something a bit more blue want to trade stands, let me know.Show Image(http://i.imgur.com/wc1bG0v.jpg)

Yes bro, this is how u lustro, v nice :cool:
Ah damn, joined Geekhack a little bit late. This keyboard is super awesome.
Any chance for 2nd round or selling?
The chance of having 2nd round is quite low but not impossible. We'll need more feedback abt R1 so we can improve in the next round :D

Will it be invoicing in 2017, shipping in 2019? ;)
@Triviumtek Supporter Still waiting on a response to my PM's about my order. Please respond been over 2 weeks since your last message.
So do me a favor, wait for me and Sherry to finish (later next week) then you will get your money back or your stand back.

According to Triviumtek via PM
I assume this applies to other missing items as well. I also asked for weekly updates to be posted here so we don't get left in the dark like before in case it takes longer than "later next week".
Any remaining order from Australia, Asia pls confirm your paypal email and address so we can ship the keyboard :(
Are there extras? Or is anyone selling the standard kit?

I'd be in the number missing the initial groupbuy.
If there are extras/dropped orders, will there be a way to purchase those? I (and others I imagine) would definitely be interested.
Alternately/If there are no extras, put me down as interested in a rebuy!
Umm i don't really think you should show address, name, surname and mail in your form...So how can you re-check your information or order detail if you can't see it?
Like wtf?

Thanks to the person who reported the order check spreadsheet, the link has now been removed. PM'd the OP to link an edited version that does NOT contain everyone's personal info.
So did anyone get their order from sherry? Its been a while...

Try contacting Originative to see if they have the switches from your order. I contacted them and they said they don't have my extra stands.
anyone still have any contact with these people? I'm still without my order and they have gone silent on me....after promising sending a replacement if my order didn't arrive to Oco.
Hi there - I bought a Lustro from OC but the pcb I want to use is too deep for the short (3mm?) integrated standoffs, so I wanted to add my own standoffs. Do any of you folks know what size (M2? maybe) the screws that come with the case for attaching the pcb are?Yup PCB screws are usually M2.
Thanks!
