[taking orders!] Double shot replacements ROUND FOUR!
« Reply #1170 on: Sat, 29 October 2011, 16:29:34 »
One last question:
I might as well order a space key with the same color of the original white/beige Cherry Corp keys, since I'm using the default white Filco right now and it's slightly different.

Do you happen to know the correct original color sample for the lighter Cherry keys? And if you do the corresponding order ID for the that color. Is it the same color which is in the RETRO style?

It's possible to put a stepped caps lock key on a Filco, say - I've done it - but it really doesn't work very well.  (come on Moogle kits!)

Alternately, I wonder if it would be possible to shift the switch over and use an unmodded G81 stepped caps lock...  hmm... getting an idea.  Do I really want to take the risk of completely horking up a Filco board and plate though?


I own 5 Cherry keyboards which have n-key rollover.

They did all cost less than a Filco!

4 of 5 are new or like new, only one is used.

I will never figure out why people try to use old Cherry keys on new keyboards.

Because the old Cherry keys are better than the keys that come with a new keyboard.  It's one of those "sum of the parts" things...  I took a Filco, a G81 board, and a G80 POS board; the first being good, the second being ****e, the third being OK but a little flexy and unaesthetically appealing, and combined them all.  The result is my favoritest keyboard ever, I think I like it even better than my previous gold standard, the venerable Model M.

If you didn't guess, the recipe was to take the Filco, and put the sliders and springs from a POS board with clears in it, and then top it off with some doubleshots harvested from the G81.  Feels better than any of the three boards did originally, and the sound is so nice, just a nice deep "thock" when the keys top out.
Filco Majestouch-2 with Cherry Corp. doubleshot keys - Leopold Tenkeyless Tactile Force with Wyse doubleshots - Silicon Graphics 9500900 - WASD V1 - IBM Model M 52G9658 - Noppoo Choc Pro with Cherry lasered PBT keycaps - Wyse 900866-01 - Cherry G80-8200LPBUS/07 - Dell AT101W - several Cherry G81s (future doubleshot donors) (order of current preference) (dang I have too many keyboards, I really only need two)

They even have a premade SVG:

Sorry just started investment more time trying to get caught up on this thread to put my order in...

@7bit - I remember in the beginning it was possible to order a ****e Cherry Style set with Red print on white for the main keys and Red on grey for the modifers... is that still possible?

I was also interested in a similar set with blue print instead of red, similat to the picture in your avatar with the color of the blue arrow keys.

mmmm... RETRO/GAMER/RED would be off-centered red characters over white background keycap?
and NOIR/GAMER/WHITE is black characters over white background right?

I've ordered my keys long ago and all the recent changes in the wiki are turning me crazy...

NOIR/KBDRUNNER/RED is WA (white) on NN (black)

I've got a hard time to figure this out for myself. I think, I must renew that color concept.

Hmm with NOIR/KBDRUNNER/RED giving white on black no wonder it's hard =)

No. That was the Bianco style.

RETRO/GAMER/RED is red on light grey
NOIR/GAMER/WHITE is black on white (reverse video)

I've started to make some color samples and descrition for the SVG-graphics keys and will continue that for the ather kits as well!

Is COMMAND125 part of APPLE? or is APPLE text only?
I think the wiki at one point stated text only but I can't find it now.

Edit:
Is there a inverted gamer kit for DARK/ORANGE? Like very dark grey text on orange.

APPLE is text-only (5 keys), you need the COMMAND125 keys.

Edit: No.

This should be obvious: GLIDER

You can have
RETRO/GLIDER
or
ROUND3/GLIDER
or
DARK/GLIDER
etc.

maybe I missed it somewhere but I did read the resources provided, I didn't see indented/engraved lettering, only lasered.

Would the indented letters be a possibility here?

The only true way to put labels on keys is to doubleshot them!

Sorry, just corrected the wiki:
*LOTUS 7 Lotus keys in one kit (1x Escape, 2x 1 unit mod., 2x 1.25 units mod. 2x 1.5 units mod.)
*LOTUSESC 1 unit Escape
*LOTUSPOS 2 units key to fit on 2 keystems
*LOTUS100  1 units modifier
*LOTUS125  1.25 units modifier
*LOTUS150  1.5 units modifier

NOIR/LOTUS125 should work.

NOIR/GLIDER
The best way to go.


Are we going with the glider with grid or without? I sort-of like the grid, but am cool either way.
