Title: [GB] ORI CLS-1 by ORI-CLUB // Complete
Post by: BruceDinh on Tue, 28 July 2020, 12:54:20
Hi everybody,
I'm Bruce Dinh, a mechanical keyboard designer. Owned by ORI-CLUB, my personal studio.
I was the former designer of the Makeaboard team (MAB). Team MAB has a bad past when the team disbanded and was unable to complete the GB 60S keyboard - 2018. And yes, MAB team would have said it was scam.
Emphasize that I am only a designer and not allowed to make decisions about production and finance on team MAB.
 This is link my IC POST (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=106031.msg2910595#msg2910595), which has detailed everything my story. There are also protests, some agree. Make sure if you decide to participate in GB ORI, you understand me and my story.

Money is in your hands, decide on your own. But I really want to go back to the cleanest.
 This time, ORI-CLUB is a very personal thing of my own, designed by me and I take all responsibilities. And also forever only one person belongs to ORI-CLUB, it's me.

ORI CLS-1 inside isolate isolate custom gasket + leafspring plate switch, Infinity 87 PCB + daughter pcb by Mechlovin '.
The logo of the sun and the paper crane reach out to the sun, which means good luck and always want to reach for better and more perfect things.
The extra weight will have a combination of 3 materials to create a contrast and emphasize the sunrise.

20 slots worldwide
05 slots local market.
ORI-CLUB is my own studio and is very new so if you have any questions please join the Ori-club Discord sever. Sever is the only manager, so you can text me directly.

Group Buy will be hosted on my website: www.ori-club.comMy website is still in the process of completion so please be aware of some minor errors (even the website is self-edited!)

* Limited 25 slots because my financial capacity is limited, and I want to have 05 slots opened at Local market to prove that I am clean in GB this time.
* To me Raffle is a fair rule, and I believe that limited-times-raffles will be a rule that fits in a small number (25 slots) like this GB.

GB is approved with the understanding that OP will disclaim their history (done so above - I added the glow effect since you couldn't read the white text on Austere theme), for all potential buyers to be made aware and decide to proceed with all relevant information available.

can you clarify the aluminum weight in the base kit and the default weight in the add on option?

is the aluminum weight the same as the default just all pieces made out of alu?

or is the default weight add on  the only weight option?

Sorry for the delay, but here it is, Soundtest ORI CLS-1 with Gateron Yellow standard
This gasket I use is thinner than the offical gasket.
Offical Gasket I ordered in China, so I couldn't produce it in time for the prototype, so I had to use the thinner one

I will create a discord group for the winners to know each other, but that's when ORI is ready to ship.
At least 3/20 people do not want to show off.

I'm collecting money now

The groupbuy was a giant sh**show. No recaptcha. Anyone who ordered in the last 15 min was cut out. Apparently the people who won needed to respond ASAP to emails to prove they weren't a bot. Someone on the discord said: "For a GB from a group who's trying to clear their name, there's ton of red flags with transparency already."  This eloquently sums up how the GB went.

I believe the reason all the entries from the last 15 min were cut out was the amount of bots who entered the raffle. I believe at the 45 min mark the number of entries was sitting at 1k but in the last 15 min 3000 entries were made. These were assumed to be from mostly bots so they were cut out.

So everything is almost done, I'm sorting and waiting for the PCB to finish QC. Hope next weekend everyone can get their hands on my product.

I only took a few photos because the arrangements were made, so I was very lazy to take pictures again because I was afraid of the mistake

Man, the QC (based off the photos) combined with the speed that these came out puts a lot of GB runners to shame. Ironic too, given how much flak he was being given though the warning was warranted. At any rate, if there is anyone out there who is unhappy with their board for whatever reason, I am more than willing to buy it off ya.
