Does GMK have icons for control, alt and gui like 7bit does (http://www.7bit.info/algol/png/ALGOL_KITSYM_GREY.png) for some of his kits? I know the OG Cherry sets use text for control and alt but I was wondering if full icons have ever been done with GMK.I like seeing more icon only mods in sets, they look so much cleaner than text imo.

Same. Never been a big fan of text and even less so nowadays. Icon just looks so much cleaner.

So, is the win key pad print or double-shot?
Hmm. I would prefer a double shot legend or blank, even if it meant giving up the 95 logoSo, is the win key pad print or double-shot?

Is it possible to add in 1x 1u Ctrl and 1x 1u Alt to accommodate the growing popularity of 65% and 75% boards?
Quite a bit interested in this, I'll be keeping a lookout. Nice to see a timeless classic amongst all the crazy colourways coming out these days.

Why not use L9?
I'll buy this if u change your avatar forever

Damn I have the PBT version of this, and I love it, but those icon mods are killer.
Will probably join :D
Hell yeah, classic beige + icon mods.
Considerations on adding the modern windows keys as well?

Not sure...I am really not a fan of them nor the pad printing.

I vote for the W8 logo I think, it's simple, quite angular and inoffensive, I know a few here prefer blanks so that would be fine with me also, whichever you see fit (even though I'm not much of a fan of blanks)

I won't be changing win95. I may add blanks and I may add the top row R1 keys for the Cherry G80-3700 numpads.
Hello!
I know we are all overwhelmed with GMK right now...crazy colors, etc. I've decided on one of the oldies.
I personally despise text mods so I have chosen to use icon mods. It also seems like R5 is big so I have included that as well. Hope you enjoy!
Pricing: TBD
MOQ: TBD
I am looking to run this sometime in the beginning of 2017 (i.e. Jan/Feb) :thumb:
(Likely will get pricing/moq tomorrow 11/30/2016)

This set pretty much takes care of the more widely used layouts - full size, TKL, HHKB, 1800, 65%, 75%, etc.
As it stands right now: the extra 2.25 shift will be deleted (fk u leopold), the R5 numpad enter will be U9, the CP on V4 ESC + Enter combo will now be U9 on V4, and I will be adding a R5 1U "0".
I will disclose updates from GMK as I see fit. [I've also been told that GMK now handles shipment...so if this is true, the IC/GB could go potentially very smooth being that I would not need to handle reshipping the caps individually.] Feel free to post in the thread or click the link below to express your thoughts/concerns.

Pad print is evil.
I hate the diamond symbol, but I would like something like "Code".
The icon mods are really nice.
You can really understand how pleasant they are when there's a clean and nice keyboard in front of you.
Please use L9 than CP for a more classic look. I myself have a GMK blue on beige set, and the colour is too white for me, whiter than most of the OG cherry keyboards. Makes me want to sell it from time to time.

Do the stabs work with any Cherry compatible PCB or are they only functional with vintage cherry boards?
Do the stabs work with any Cherry compatible PCB or are they only functional with vintage cherry boards?
They are PCB mounted with the addition of the screw. So as far as I know they will work with any PCB that allows cherry pcb mounted stabs.
i.e. your stabs will not pop out any more because of the screw.

With all of the customs keys we see with gmk sets, it may be worth it to see what the extra cost would be for them to do win95 double shot. I agree it looks the greatest, but pad print is less desirable :(

Please don't forget about the support for 1800 layout. This can be obtained by adding:

2 1u ctrl
2 1u alt
The price for all these additional keys? Only $4. No more than that.
I don't know if the R5 has some real love here... personally I don't need it at all, I would prefer compatibility with some additional layouts.
Not really a fan of Olivetti, but I'd be down for some stabs

Please include an optional euro-kit!
I was hoping someone would bring back olovetti. I like the warm gray with the soft blue so much!
I already have the tai-hao clone but I don't really want to use it because it is very thin abs and overall the grays are too dark. I tried again to come close to the olivetti "theme" with the EnjoyPBT set with blue dyesubs - I like it, it's quite good.
Now I really hope you consider an optional euro kit. That would make the set appealing to a wider audience and might be your key to unlock the 150.
So I'm in with euro / ISO-DE compatibility.
Btw: A german-only GMK-DOLCH GB was just yesterday confirmed to be successful (I'm in). Only german ISO, no euro compatibility. So that should be a strong indicator for you, that a euro set would be worth the effort, right?
If you would decide to go for a euro option, you would most definitely find someone who would handle the european orders, so the wouldn't have to be exported just to get imported right after.
Can you guys explain what you mean by ISO essentials? We here live in Merica. There is a wall blocking me as I try to think of the cap.Please include an optional euro-kit!

Its a cheap add-on kit that gives compability for Nordic, german and UK users. Made by Wodan
In regards to modern 1800, I will not be adding those keys. I feel as if that layout is never used. I understand that it is not very much money, but money is money and I'd rather have the R5.
In regards to the windows logo choosing. Ghostjuggernaut brought up a very good point, I will ask Christoph about a double-shot version of this key. In regards to what Nick said...we may not be able to get a double-shot version of this because of the detail that is involved in the key cap. If it is the case that we cannot get a double-shot version and everyone does not want Win95, I will try and work something out with GMK and you guys (in the thread). Maybe I will need to run another vote for these...but I am keen on using win95 as it is right now and seems like the overwhelming majority wants it too.
So far, you guys voted for no blanks and to change the alpha base color to L9. I truly think this is the right move.
Still waiting on pricing and moq - for both products. Leandre is a homie and linked pictures in the thread of the GMK screw-in stabs. Please check them out as they show that they are compatible with newer PCBs (i.e. not just Cherry keyboards).

exactly! and YES, that's the guy I had in mind ;)
I'll give you some examples. take a look at this set (https://www.massdrop.com/buy/godspeed-custom-sa-keycap-set) from massdrop. among others it has a UK-kit and a nordic-kit. you already have the UK-kit as part of the main kit, so the addition of the nord-kit would make it interesting for many europeans:

this one is not just "nordic" but "international" - this would cover all european countries plus all spanish an portuguese speaking counties. so that would include mexico, central-america as well as the whole south-american continent, right? with portuguese you could not only reach to brazil but also to angola - OK, I think I'm drifting away with this.
for me as german, a norde kit would do it. I believe, the nord kit would include the countries of europe, that are financially stronger - so higher chance they actually buy a GMK kit at all.
would be interesting to get some visitor-statistics from geekhack. this way we could easily see from which countries the geekhack users are.

well, since most of the potential buyers are from the us: probably NO.
BUT, it would be an addon set so people from the US / ANSI-users just don't add it therefor won't have to pay more.
AND, YES - people from the EU would want it, they want ISO! you can read it in nearly every IC for a GMK set, where you can read something like "ISO please" - and not only the brits. I just think you would make this set appealing to more people, which translates to a higher possibility in reaching the 150. I think addon sets only have a MQ of 50.
I really hope you can be convinced. I'm sure there will be a person from germany who would handle all the european orders, happened with other GBs already.

Being honest here:
Don't mind ISO kit, but Norde and International seem like a lot of extra to me (personally).
In any case, so what's best for the group and not 1 voice :)
All GMK sets are subject to 150 MOQs, even child kits.
So do you think U9 is too light? Judging by the alpha base color, L9 is the correct color right?Unfortunately I take terrible pictures, but if you want more, I can try.

It looks to me like the proper combination is BJ + CB (mods and alphas respectively) but the V4 looks too bright anyway.
Honestly, the first replica (http://keypuller.com/gmk-olivetti-red-alert-by-team-hammer/) (with U9 and L9) looks too bright to me.

The form in the OP seems a little barebones.
For example, if you asked people for their country of residence you would know the percent of potential buyers from the US.
You should probably collect all the things you're considering about the set and put those in a form.
Do you have pictures in natural sunlight or is that hard to capture?Just taken, the blue caps are V4 from LifeZ's GB.

Voted. Looking forward to seeing this in the GB subforum
the only other way to go about getting the blue is doing a custom colorUnless you can get a proper render and compare, I'm afraid so.
Spiting sets from gmk at parts, very bad idea. Look for example gmk retro on massdrop(this is one of the reasons for his failure, because individually the sets were too expensive), but on the other hand to include all possible additives in the base set, very cruel towards those who do not need these extras, but forced them to overpay.Is this something people will want?

I guess people interested in ISO-NORDIC will have to speak up here. If no one else than me will express her/his desire, well then of course it should be just fine as it is right now.All GMK sets are subject to 150 MOQs, even child kits.
that was not the case with a german GMK GB which was just confirmed. an addon kit containing ESC+ENTER+SPACE with a different color than the base set only had an MOQ of 50. see here (https://www.computerbase.de/forum/showthread.php?t=1601148).

Honestly, the first replica (http://keypuller.com/gmk-olivetti-red-alert-by-team-hammer/) (with U9 and L9) looks too bright to me.
They used CP, no L9. I want to go towards L9. Hmmm BJ is way darker, not really a fan of it. Do you have pictures in natural sunlight or is that hard to capture?
Being honest here:
Don't mind ISO kit, but Norde and International seem like a lot of extra to me (personally).
In any case, so what's best for the group and not 1 voice :)

My OG Olivetti doubleshots. Blue is very dark. compared to OG Cherry beige PBT, the alpha are little darker and grey without the beige tint. The mods are noticeably darker. I never saw a replica that has this kind of blue.
Next to each other the alphas of the Olivetti is not quite but almost as dark as the OG Cherry dyesub modifiers!Show Image(https://c8.staticflickr.com/6/5687/30739641015_3bf5e19497_c.jpg)

This is a great small kit that I am sure will hit MOQ.
I used a scuadra true colors grey card, lightroom... In pure sunlight. No color saturation added, and final contrast compared with the keys in real sight.
OG dyesub with HADapter kit, they nailed the colors of the mods! It is PBT so zero yellowing.
OG Olivetti, they are doubleshots of course, and doesn't look yellow at all, along with the KBD2812 grey case. Pretty good state.
I can't find correspondance with modern GMK colors.
BJ seems the closest but looks too yellow
T9 looks less yellow than L9 but looks too bright.
Good luck with color matching those OG Olivetti!

Yeah I am not a fan of BJ at all. I think it is way too dark. I like L9 quite a lot, I think that is probably the best move so that all of the classic beige sets will end up matching.
9009 + Classic Beige both used L9.
I would also need to get a custom color to match the blue in Olivetti. V4 is the closest thing to it.

GMK told me that V4 is the closest without doing a custom color for it. Ya I don't like the more grey tinted alphas. It feels absolutely no room for the blue to pop out. I want this to have the classic beige colors.
Those keys are ISO-UK and they are close to the XT ANSI standard (Last image), but the last is uncommon in contemporary boards. The ISO UK layout is closer to the ANSI US, than the ISO German keys that you included in your set.Show Image(http://i.imgur.com/OeN2n7v.jpg)Show Image(http://i.imgur.com/M7LI8d3.jpg)Show Image(http://i.imgur.com/p8kbXJx.jpg)

Sorry to get back to 24 hours later. I will see what I can do but is this really necessary or is it like something on top you'd like to see?
Is the |\ key R1 on purpose?
Is the |\ key R1 on purpose? I use it next to the ISO Enter on R3, but R4 would be fine as well.

From the OP render on 13-Dec-2016
Is there a reason for this? If not, can it be changed to R3 or R4?
Lovely set, BTW. I vote for the Windows Me icon (that I won't use on my Linux desktops...)

An 1.5u Alt Gr key would be great; but, I think non of the Alt Gr keys are really essential. They can be replaced with the standard Alt keys with no issue. These keys provide full ISO UK compatibility to the set. The other European layouts require a lot more keys; that, it is not the intent of this essential ISO child set.

How's Arale?
****, gmk with intl kit.how much extra do you expect that to be?
WOW I SHOULD READ THE ****ING OP
Don't forget to add diamond modifiers.
@cmd "+/-" you mean "~" :)
Are the screw-in modifiers dangerous for your pcb?
With the usual stabs, when I remove a spacebar which has very tight stems, the stab may be accidentally removed without damaging the pcb (it has happened to me with an original cherry 6u spacebar). When using the screw-in ones, is there a possibility that they can damage the pcb?
I'm also curious if there's any real difference in stability from screw in to pcb mounted stabilizers...
The stabilizers would be pretty much identical to Zeal's, minus the gold wire and transparent plastic right? If so, I'd buy enough for all the boards I will ever build. I love Zeal's stabilizers but 30 bucks for a set, particularly when not all my boards require transparent stabilizers due to lack of RGB, oof.

Lol, alrighty
Are you getting oco to do both the keyset and the stabilizers? Was really hoping to get that olivetti set, but I would really prefer not to deal with oco GB's after the whole TADA gong-show
Yeah, the other problem is shipping internationally is crazy expensive it'd you don't have the option to lower declared value which I've heard they will not do anymore. Plus guessing through oco it'll be impossible to have the set sell at the prices you were quoting initially. I'll probably pass since it'll probably be too much to justify with all the other stuff that's coming out, good luck though, the sets really quite nice

Any chance of adding some keys to the international kit? I'm asking this because gmk has a strange threshold, and if you get past it, everything becomes cheaper, and 1u keys cost about $0.5.
For example in the alphas set I had 74 pieces for $50, and additional 1u keys cost 0.5$, while the space bar cost 1.5$ https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=85593.0
I'm suggesting to add a 6u space-bar and 5 1u keys for modern 1800 compatibility.

But but but... The classic win95 keys in your render are pad print!
Haha I knew someone was going to say that. I could go with Windows Vista or Windows 8 if you'd prefer -________-
Pad print is evil.
I hate the diamond symbol, but I would like something like "Code".
Please don't forget about the support for 1800 layout. This can be obtained by adding:
6 u spacebar
2 1u ctrl
2 1u alt
The price for all these additional keys? Only $4. No more than that.
I don't know if the R5 has some real love here... personally I don't need it at all, I would prefer compatibility with some additional layouts.

I'll probably pass since it'll probably be too much to justify with all the other stuff that's coming out, good luck though, the sets really quite nice
Yeah I've mentioned before that the price is not going to change...it will change when the set goes to retail...but not for the GB.
...We'll have to pay import taxes on this? I'm not going to pay 60 eur in taxes.Any chance of adding some keys to the international kit? I'm asking this because gmk has a strange threshold, and if you get past it, everything becomes cheaper, and 1u keys cost about $0.5.
For example in the alphas set I had 74 pieces for $50, and additional 1u keys cost 0.5$, while the space bar cost 1.5$ https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=85593.0
I'm suggesting to add a 6u space-bar and 5 1u keys for modern 1800 compatibility.Are the screw-in modifiers dangerous for your pcb?
With the usual stabs, when I remove a spacebar which has very tight stems, the stab may be accidentally removed without damaging the pcb (it has happened to me with an original cherry 6u spacebar). When using the screw-in ones, is there a possibility that they can damage the pcb?
I'm also curious if there's any real difference in stability from screw in to pcb mounted stabilizers...
But but but... The classic win95 keys in your render are pad print!
Haha I knew someone was going to say that. I could go with Windows Vista or Windows 8 if you'd prefer -________-
Pad print is evil.
I hate the diamond symbol, but I would like something like "Code".Please don't forget about the support for 1800 layout. This can be obtained by adding:
6 u spacebar
2 1u ctrl
2 1u alt
The price for all these additional keys? Only $4. No more than that.
I don't know if the R5 has some real love here... personally I don't need it at all, I would prefer compatibility with some additional layouts.Please don't forget about the support for 1800 layout. This can be obtained by adding:

I don't know if the R5 has some real love here... personally I don't need it at all, I would prefer compatibility with some additional layouts.would you be interested in selling also a 1800 addon pack?Why do you want everyone who buys this to pay 7$ so a few people can get keys they want? I'd rather buy lunch with that 7$. If you want them badly enough you could just buy 150 of those kits from GMK :thumb:
It should contain
2x 1u ctrl
2x 1u alt
2x 1u menu
6u spacebar
The cost should be very limited, less than $7.
If I were you, I would do it in olivetti and in classic beige color, since the last beige gb didn't have full compatibility.
Addon pack, it is something that you buy separately from the main pack. If you want it, you pay it, if you don't want it, eat your happy meal and be f̶a̶t̶ happy
LUL you should have seen the salt coming out of this dude on the Massdrop TA Royal Alpha discussion. Couldn't tell if he was trolling or being genuinely serious:

I really respect my fellow GHrs. Particularly when they have a different opinion than main group thinking. However, in this particular case, I should say that he tends to make interventions pretty much everywhere and most of the time without proper facts recollection and genuine interest on the topic. Again. I think all of us deserve our share of respect, but the OP made a point pulling together evidence of what appears to be a tendency of empty critic in this particular thread.
Probably you miss the fact, again, that when I buy directly from gmk I pay no VAT, because I have a VAT number. Furthermore I can detract my purchases from my income taxes. So I effectively pay half of the sum.
Great set anyway.

Maybe it's time for you to put together a groupbuy then? That way you can have bars on every key..

There was nothing for me to say since I was satisfied that set and ordered it on day 1. Couldn't give a **** about what you have to say, but I can see why people on these forums are annoyed with you.
Anyways, I have no intentions of engaging with a troll with any further on Massdrop, GH, or Reddit.
Have a nice day! :)
Hope to see this set on the GB subfourm soon, keep up the good work CMD!

Oh God, thanks. Bye troll :thumb:
I know it is probably far to late by now, but I wanted to ask anyways. Is it at all possible to change the hhkb backspace to be like the normal backspace icon mod? As someone who like hhkb layout, the big boxy arrow with the x in it always seems out of place - like it doesn't really fit in with the rest of the icon mods.
Agree with this ^^I know it is probably far to late by now, but I wanted to ask anyways. Is it at all possible to change the hhkb backspace to be like the normal backspace icon mod?

+1 for this. The simple left arrow makes an elegant icon for the backspace, it also matches better with the other modifierīs icons.

Hi guys...in hindsight I actually agree with this but I cannot make changes at this point.
I would like to announce Sherryton has been able to drop the price by $5 and will drop further if we get to 250 orders. I am drafting a piece right now and hope to get this up on his website this week. I appreciate everyone that came to this interest check. All of the criticism and/or advice has been welcomed.
Sorry if I was not able to please everyone.
Glad this set is coming to life <3

Do you know if Sherry will be offering the screw-ins with gold plated stab wires as well?
Anyone got photos of these installed?

Just so we are clear here this is not what my set looks like.
That is using CP. Mine will have L9.
