Q&A
Where is the LED indicators?
A: I have changed it to invisible micro holes, details: https://imgur.com/a/J7XYOFg

What Gasket we can use?
A: We will provide a set of gaskets for you, but you also can buy whatever gasket, silicon, rubber stripes with the same size we provided. It is not hard to find from the market. (Considered the gasket aging problem in, we have chosen the popular types of gasket instead of customized gasket)

How can I get the PC or brass during the google form GB?
Updates:edit on 7th March
A:many ppl are confusing about the previous solution. I have discussed with many users in my discord server, and here is the new solution: GB will be 2 different timing, same day(9th March)but 1 hour difference. First one will be PC/brass version, second one will be alum version). I will announce the PC/Brass winner few minutes after PC/Brass GB has finished, so all the participants will know whether you get in or out. Good Luck for everyone!

More
(Here is my solution: FSFC is the baseline, 75+10+5 is 90 pieces, if you are in first 90 orders, you can get the ticket(at least a set of alum kit, because I have alum MOQ and I can't give all of your PC or Brass, if I don't hit Alum MOQ, I am in trouble and I can't answer to factory, hope you can understand). So after choosing your first alum set, you can move to section 2 which is  PC or Brass or None.
At here, at least, you get an alum set.
Second, you can pick PC/Brass/None. It will be a multiple choice.
if you are fast enough(at first 10 PC picker or 5 Brass picker), You can buy (alum + PC, 2 sets) or (alum + brass,  2 sets) or give up your alum kit(Kit will give to No.91 buyer) and just take PC/brass.)





Working hard during this half a year for a project, now I am ready! Are you?
Thanks

(The reason why I canceled this convex design/craft, it is toooo time-consuming and CNC fee is sky high, and the main reason is: it is very very very very hard to polish, maintain and etc, you can check this link for my one-off prototype: https://imgur.com/a/ia93PvO)

Personal, I want the thing to be unique, creative and perfect. But from this half a year project, it taught me that things cannot be THAT perfect. I just did my best!
So there is my solution for the weight:

I have made a hard decision, same design but from convex type to concave type.

Is the PCB a custom by Clueboard or the same/similar to the one sold on their site? It would be nice to know if something happens down the road and I needed a new PCB, it would be more readily available than waiting for an R2 or being SOL.

hi, this is a good question and let me explain:
The Volcano PCB is customized by clueboard team, we did some adjustments for USB port, added 3 led slots and etc. But I have talked with skully from clueboard. They will change their 660 PCB design to V660's type in the future. (Confirmed with skully few mins ago)

Update: GB timing has changed.
Because many ppl are confusing about the previous solution. I have discussed with many users in my discord server, and here is the new solution: GB will be 2 different timing, same day(9th March)but 1 hour difference. First one will be PC/brass version, second one will be alum version). I will announce the PC/Brass winner few minutes after PC/Brass GB has finished, so all the participants will know whether you get in or out. Good Luck for everyone!

9th March 8am EST /9PM SGT for PC/Brass Kits.
PC/Brass GB link:(TBD)

9th March 9AM EST/10PM SGT for Alum Kits.(one hour after than PC/Brass GB)
Alum GB link:(TBD)

Well, I guess I'm going to be setting an alarm to get up even earlier.

Looking forward to the GB! Hope I get at least one board.

Update: GB timing has changed.
Because many ppl are confusing about the previous solution. I have discussed with many users in my discord server, and here is the new solution: GB will be 2 different timing, same day(9th March)but 1 hour difference. First one will be PC/brass version, second one will be alum version). I will announce the PC/Brass winner few minutes after PC/Brass GB has finished, so all the participants will know whether you get in or out. Good Luck for everyone!

9th March 8am EST /9PM SGT for PC/Brass Kits.
PC/Brass GB link:(TBD)

9th March 9AM EST/10PM SGT for Alum Kits.(one hour after than PC/Brass GB)
Alum GB link:(TBD)

Man this is getting more complicated!
hmmm this is the best solution I had so far. It may take buyer 1 hour plus timing to focus on GB, from 9pm -10pm SGT/ 8am - 9am EST. I think it’s totally fair:)

Is the PCB a custom by Clueboard or the same/similar to the one sold on their site? It would be nice to know if something happens down the road and I needed a new PCB, it would be more readily available than waiting for an R2 or being SOL.
hi, this is a good question and let me explain:
The Volcano PCB is customized by clueboard team, we did some adjustments for USB port, added 3 led slots and etc. But I have talked with skully from clueboard. They will change their 660 PCB design to V660's type in the future. (Confirmed with skully few mins ago)

Will extra PCBs and/or plates be available during the GB as extras? And if so, how much?
Yes it has the extra PCB option during the GB.

Yep! Trying to find out what the default UV coating is vs copper coating vs PVD. Copper would be cool but don't know much about how it holds up.

Thanks for the visual! Does the copper have a coating on it to keep it from dulling? Also, what is the UV anti-tarnish coating on the default brass?

Ha, I’m not very against it. I just want to be fair to everyone. I don’t allow ppl just random filled in and get the spot first, then later come to me and ask to modify everything.

I don't think so. Said no edits so people don't fill in forms fake and go back later. If the color you selected didn't get enough you'll get to change

so.. when can we edit our orders if we messed up?

I'm sure you can appeal to Louis, but the last time he mentioned editing forms, he seemed very against it. So...
Ha, I’m not very against it. I just want to be fair to everyone. I don’t allow ppl just random filled in and get the spot first, then later come to me and ask to modify everything.

What caps are people planning to pair with the quantum blue? I'm hoping it matches GMK Bento well, if not then I might try GMK Laser or a BoW set.

Hey Louis, how tall is the case regarding the front bezel?
I am curious how much height does the gasket add to the case.

pp states that international fee will be 4.4% + fixed rate, but I checked many of my previous payments, it is between 5% - 5.6%. I don't know why and all the seller or GB runner are complaining about PP, so I am thinking that maybe we can use Stripe which is suggested by many of discord users.

PC is a little less than half the density of Aluminum (1.20g/cm3 to 2.7 g/cm3). So if the weight is 800g that means the aluminum case itself is 1300g (ignoring plate and rest of build).

So if Auminum case is 1300g, PC case would be about 577g.

So 577g + 800g= 1377g total, as a ballpark weight

But hopefully Louis has an exact number

PC case is lighter than aluminum, so you need the brass weight to increase the weight. I think volcano's brass is quite large

WOW!!! Yeah the PC version is mighty impressive! These pics made me even sadder I had to pass on this GB. I had already got a spot for a E6.5 a few days before the GB date was announced & decide to keep the guaranteed spot vs possibly not getting one here. Oh well there's always the second hand market in the future.

Buys like this are usually the product of one person producing them in their free time. Manufacturing dozens of keyboards, coordinating manufacturers, interacting with customers, shipping around the world... is a BIG job with lots of effort required. They have to limit their runs in order to help keep it manageable and successful. Just the way it goes.

Heh, the Volcano is one heavy board. It clocks in at about 2400g for the Alum, about 5-6kg is expected for the brass one. The PC one will likely be between 1-2kg if I had to guess.

Not sure if your are in the discord or not (but you should be! :) ) but Louis posted a few days ago that the CNC process is completed for all of the brass and aluminum boards! PC had a receheck with all of the PC buyers due to the color of the PC when it’s as thick as it needs to be for volcano, and that was approved by all buyers quick.

Next up is Anno and QC, then the much anticipated shipping! Last word was that all is on track or ahead of estimates :)

Are there any plans on doing another group buy for this board, possibly a larger run? I'm guessing after the first GB is completed, this'll give you a better gauge on your decision.

Bummed I missed out on this but then again, looks like you had to be lightning quick with the order form. This board ticks all my boxes in terms of aesthetics, features, and layout. Looking forward to seeing the builds in here.

Hi guys posting on behalf of Louis's behalf. There has been a slight delay in production due to pcb issues. It was recently discovered that due to some issues the current layout that is supported is (https://images-ext-2.discordapp.net/external/640oyhS2VO0enSKh8O4dDQvKxigTPPloFQ7TgtGCeD0/https/cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/517238750967889921/610532699324547090/unknown.png).

If you are sure that you want ONLY this bottom layout. Then fill out this form https://forms.gle/JoijmzZ5J4xpPzJCA

AGAIN ONLY FILL OUT THE FORM IF YOU WANT ONLY THAT LAYOUT SHOWN ABOVE.

Otherwise, you have the choice to wait as louis is making the corrected pcb which has the eta of around 3-4 weeks currently. Everyone who fills out the form listed above because they ONLY want the listed layout will receive their volcanoes earlier.

To stay more up to date with the project make sure you join the tyl discord for quick updates.

Praying there will be some extras available when the PCB issue has been resolved!

Updates for volcano(Sep 25th)
As we know, we had some of the anodising issue. It affects some of the blue, green and some grey kits.
Today, I just received some pics and vidoes from factory, factory says due to the raw material problem(6063 series alum), the final product is still not idea(This is 3rd rounds we failed).
As the pic shows, there is a white stripe on the side surface, it is not that visible but I don't accept that. This is normal appearance on all the alum keyboard kits even for TGR boards, some raw material doesn't have this problem, but some does.

I already put 1 year on this project and I don't want to give up. As designer but also keyboard enthusiast like you guys, I want to deliver a really high end keyboard to all the buyers, from inside to outside, all the detail parts I cared, Volcano is my faith. I will try my best.

Sorry for the things we screwed it up T.T
 
I will ask factory to use Kobe 5052 or 7075 to redo those kits, they promised it is good but I need to let all the buyers know first before we process the work, should be 10 more days to redo those kits.
