[GB] Double shot replacements ROUND FOUR! - PACKING!

[7bit]

Hi guys,
I've got G80-3000 LSCDE (iso layout) keyboard. If I want to replace my keys (I do not want the german ones) I should buy Standard kit and J-shape return plus 1.25 units shift, right? And what about the spacebar?
Will it fit?

Thanks for clarification!

 
Yes, there is a spacebar that fits (6.25 units).

[pederlol]

Forgive my incompetence!

If I would like a red on white set in danish layout (ISO) with RGB modifiers, the order should be:

BIANCO/STD/RED 1
BIANCO/DK/RED 1
BIANCO/RGBMOD 1
BIANCO/SHIFT125/WHITE/GREEN 1

Is it correct that shift is green in RGBMOD set? And will the green ISO-SHIFT be the same as in the RGBMOD set?

Thanks for the help

OK, I see the problem.

Here are the new order IDs for the RGB keys:
*RGB101 contains all the classic RGB modifiers with Escape key for 101 key ANSI layout
*RGB104 contains all the classic RGB modifiers with Escape key for 104 key ANSI layout
*RGB102 contains all the classic RGB modifiers with Escape key for 102 key ISO layout
*RGB105 contains all the classic RGB modifiers with Escape key for 105 key ISO layout

*RGB105 contains all the classic RGB modifiers with Escape key for 105 key ISO layout

That is fantastic, thanks!

Still, could you confirm that

BIANCO/STD/RED 1
BIANCO/DK/RED 1

will give me a red on white set in danish layout (ISO) that I can use for my Filco 105?

BIANCO/STD/RED 1
BIANCO/DK/RED 1
BIANCO/SPACE 1

Please notice that you don't need to specify the color here because the space bar comes in the kits defalt color by default.

So for my G80-3000 with ISO layout, the full order will be:

BIANCO/STD/RED 1
BIANCO/JRET/RED 1
BIANCO/SPACE 1

And could I order some key puller?

[Ekaros]

Somewhat I feel that you made it. It's more complicated than last time...

I'm waiting for round 5, one letter codes, each keycap unique base64 8-letter string

[nathanscribe]

Maybe I missed it, but is there an option with Control for the usual Caps Lock location, and Caps Lock relocated to either a single-size key (such as the F-row) or a 1.25 modifier location?  I still use Caps Lock relatively often and yet have seen the light regarding Row 2 CTRL.  Call me awkward...

[palindrome]

LOL I like it.

Ha - maybe we can coordinate something for Round 5.  

[noodles256]

wow, i can't belive i missed group buy 4. guess i have to wait for 5

[gimpster]

Queż Round 4 is just getting started...

[palindrome]

My attempt at humor has apparently failed.  

Sorry for the confusion.  I was being facetious about how long it'd take to get a "SHOUT" Caps Lock key made (if ever).

[7bit]

So for my G80-3000 with ISO layout, the full order will be:

BIANCO/STD/RED 1
BIANCO/JRET/RED 1
BIANCO/SPACE 1

And could I order some key puller?

Like in Round 4:
TOOL 1

There will be no TOY (Wanna Switch?) key puller becuase it scratches the keys and I want to concentrate on key caps.

ps: I will start to send out spam^wnotifications over the week-end.

Great idea!

artee's order would look like this:

BISTREWH 1
BIJRREWH 1
BIS6NAWH 1
TOOLNANN 1

1.75 units Control is available in the MODIFIER kit.
1 units Caps Lock is available in the FUNCTION kit
1.25 units Caps Lock might be available in the MODIFIER kit.
1.5 units Caps Lock is available in the ONEHALFMOD kit.

wow, i can't belive i missed group buy 4. guess i have to wait for 5

 
It's not too late!

As before, you can add new kits within the last seconds before they start production.

Wiki: Because there are some language kits left over, there will be an Round 3 Standard kit available in the GE/GX color scheme, with some additional add-on kits.

Which?

I'd like spacebars, CH1800, ONEHALFMOD, maybe an additional STD87, maybe MOD or MODIFIER.

[dux]

What about RGB for Spherical?

[Ekaros]

 
Great idea!

artee's order would look like this:

BISTREWH 1
BIJRREWH 1
BIS6NAWH 1
TOOLNANN 1

No no no, that's too easy. If I want c in profile 1 and 3 in profile 2? Each letter must have individual code for any combination of profiles or colors

[tsangan]

Will gamer kit's from Round 3 be available? Didn't see them in the Wiki yet but then again this just started, but thought I'll ask

If there is enough demand, all will be available!

Order-IDs:
ROUND3/STD87
ROUND3/ONEHALFMOD
etc.

What about RGB for Spherical?

 
No problem, except we need the molds made for some of the missing keys (esp. 6,25 and 7 units space bar)

[artee]

Another set of questions :-) I'm very indecisive. When will be the estimated end of orders? And if I wanted the color scheme from round3, i should order

ROUND3/STD/WHITE/GREY 1
ROUND3/SPACE/WHITE/GREY 1
ROUND3/JRET/WHITE/GREY 1

and it will look exactly the same as this picture from round3  http://i.imgur.com/Y9OSW.jpg (surprised ripster?) except for the layout. Will there be any pictures for BIANCO kit available?

[7bit]

No no no, that's too easy. If I want c in profile 1 and 3 in profile 2? Each letter must have individual code for any combination of profiles or colors

 
Ah, yes!

CDCSR4U100RAxWAxTLxc
(Cherry, DCS-family, row 4, 1 unit, red on white, top-left, label "c")

CSAR4U100BExWAxCCx3
(Cherry, SA-family, row 4, 1 unit, blue on white, centered, label "3")

Now a more complicated key:
ADCSR4U125WAxOASxBLx--tux--
(ALPS, DCS-family, row 4, 1.25 units, white on orange, bottom-left, graphic label "tux.svg")

This one you must guess:
CDCSR3U175sNNxGSCxCCx--handbag--


Is that better?

I see here a little problem.

STD and STD87 should consist of GE and GX colored keys, so the color-choice makes no sense.

It does not matter in the BIANCO or DARK kits, because these come in one color.

Might be a problem again with the RETRO kit.

I will try to find a soloution over the week-end...

From Deskthority Sphericals thread:
Important: Keys larger than 1 unit are only available for row 3!


So we are also missing Tab, Backspace and |\?

Not quite, because it is possible to use row 3 keys on them. But again, we are trying to find a solution for that.

[CeeSA]

i become heavy headache if i look R4 Wiki....

SPH (Spherical kit for Cherry MX)
what is in the kit?
and what the does this mean "...colored add-on kits..."

kits contain add-on kits with several colors - :boom:

i want keycaps but i am to dump to vote :redface:

On the bottom of the wiki there is a link to the discussion thread about sphericals.

[pederlol]

BIANCO/STD/RED 1
BIANCO/DK/RED 1
BIANCO/SPACE 1

Please notice that you don't need to specify the color here because the space bar comes in the kits defalt color by default.

Thanks again! One last question: If I would order the RETRO kit, only two arguements are nessecary, right? I.e.

RETRO/STD 1

would give me the default color "A-Z and punctuation keys in lightblue on gray, or light gray, maybe some cold white"?

When you want to (pre-)order something like the sperical kit:
SPH/STD 1

Add-on kits contain keys which might be useful to some people, but are not necessary to cover a 104 key standard keyboard.

I will clean up the wiki over the week-end.

[dux]

Now I have to ask one more thing: what about those narrow fonts on the Enter and Shift keys of the Round 3 kit? Will they be corrected, to the same size as Backspace, Meta, Control, Tab?

[keyboardlover]

No more doubleshots for me. I doubleshat my brains out on the last group buy.

[TexasFlood]

Butt-head: Huh huh huh huh. He said, "doubleshat."
Beavis: Oh, yeah.

[Lewserr]

Ok, so first post here goes nothing. Thought I'd attempt to jump on this group buy while it's just starting. Will be buying a Filco MJ2 TKL UK version (ISO?) in the next week or so when they come back in stock at The Keyboard Company. Having seen Ripsters guide on using double shot keycaps on his Filco (http://geekhack.org/showwiki.php?title=Island:6924) I've decided I'd like to do this on mine as well.

Having a look through the colours and styles it doesn't look like there is a black key with white text option other than the ROUND3 (the black there is listed as GX rather than NN, not sure on the difference there). Just wondering if it would be best trying to find an old Cherry Keyboard (seems like hard work and especially for a UK layout) mentioned in his thread or joining in on this group buy if it was possible to have black keys in white text. Would the UK language kit be in the same colour scheme too if I ordered it?

Them SC2 and star wars keys look awesome too .
