[REFER TO NEW THREAD] Doubleshot Cream Cheese & Green 89 Keyset

[tsangan]

Yes, like you are doing for the red on black set.  Fast and simple.  I love it.  Can you do a round3 GB like this, please!?!?!??  I missed out and I'm getting tired of waiting and the cost is astro-***ing-nomical.

If anything I think the next one is retro set depending if R4 every gets off the ordering phase since most people want that set.

Not sure how many people want round3 set again

That sounds great! Retro. I'd. love to see a red alert again Sometime. I guess those are finally going out.

If R4 collapses I'd really like to see a group buy of the space cadet sphericals.

Retro GB would be amazing!

Oh and I am definitely interested in this as well. So many GBs. Stop taking my money!

I think they may want the shift row \| key

Row 3 (CAPSLOCK) actually. And maybe row 4 ><|, but those legends already are on other keys. The idea is to create an ISO US layout which actually exists:
http://www.ebay.de/itm/Cherry-8113-G80-8113LRCUS-PS2-Keyboard-w-touchpad-white-keyswitches-/110748801790?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item19c9249afe
There's just one more row 4 key needed (the layout above still has a long left shift and hence just 104 keys!), but I think it should better have custom/novelty legends.

I'd like to see this 4 key kit become quite regular in Geekhack group buys, it's nice and cheap. I don't know if I (or rather my wallet) am interested in this group buy though, plus I'm more the 104 (105 ) guy.

Idea for tsangam how about a esc key that looks like a cheese for the logo of this gb?

[zirb]

^ Whoa green ESC with creamy cheese-symbol on it => awesome!

[Wildcard]

Granted we're in a holding pattern at the moment,

But if we stay around the $50 price point just for the full set.

I'm thinking of getting

x2 Base Set + 2 esc (shamrock and four leaf clover)
x2 11 key add-on
x2 10 key add-on (just in case)

I've always liked the cream cheese and kelly green look

I'll also need to pick up a few white Filcos with blue cherries before this goes live.

I think we should definitly consider a shamrock and four leaf clover esc keys to make the 11 key add-on a 13 key add-on set, or hold those as a seperate add-on, ie. St. Pat's set

Edit: added 2 possible esc keys to "base set"

[lightsout714]

I agree with the shamrock esc. This set really needs it. It would look so perfect on it.

Whats the 2 extra keys you want in the 11 key add-on set?

Yeah I'll be sure to add in the tenkeypad add-on kit also

Really everyone wants the shamrock esc?

Cheeeeese ESC!!!!!

[tsangan]

I have GeekHack pride and was going to make a Geek Hack esc

[elton5354]

A picture of a cheese on green cap?

[byFd]

how about cheese win keys instead of normal win flag xD
geek hack key in this style too?

[zirb]

First picture that came to my mind as hazeluff first said it:


Edit: something like that, ofc only one color + cutout holes

Normal base 87 keys will stay the way it is for simplicity sake and also not everyone wants cheese on their keyboard but the winflag/menu is basically standard.

As for a Cheese key we can look into that but there will be a legend fee and what not, I don't want 1 key to drive the price up even more.

Do you know how much a legend fee is? I'm just curious

Ranges from $35-$45 depending on the complexity of the image

Jeez!
However, I guess it makes sense when you consider the creation of the template.

I had a similar image in mind. I certainly dont mind the GH key. But i thought we were still trying to get permission from iMav.

[lightsout714]

I am fine with a geekhack esc. That would be cool.

[hashbaz]

Oof, please no custom cheese Esc key.  It will look lame despite Hazeluff's awesome SVG skills.  I think of this set as defined more by the green than the "cream cheese" white anyway.  I would be fine with the shamrock key, since SP already has the mold, or a GEEK HACK key, or even an ordinary Esc.

Was just an idea ; p, It just fit the name.

GEEK
HACK

Key would be very good and maybe a ESC star like the GH kit = p.

I don't agree with shamrock, as it just has nothing to do with this.

[jellowiggler]

I like the geek hack key as part of the base set as an extra key (not replacement for the esc). So it would be 88 key. As long as it doesn't add more than 1-2$ to the price.  It shouldn't. It's just text.

Adding things is a slippery slope. Beware the extra keys. I tend to think the cheese key is too cheese. But that's why it's an option.

But anything extra beyond the gh should be in the compatibility kit.  As per the original post.

88 keys, original idea had stepped caps in the main kit which isnt the case anymore

that reminds me ill go change title

[lightsout714]

Bummer about the stepped caps. Doesn't everyone prefer it?

Not a ton ton of people have off center stems caps lock so that's why and the 11 key add-on kit fits it perfectly since people that normally use 1.5x modifiers want the stepped caps too

[lightsout714]

Oh for some reason I thought the stepped caps would also have a centered stem. Thanks for clearing that up.

stepped caps is never centre stem from my knowledge
