R0 and R5 :D
Is this the first set with both in the base kit?
Would you consider adding a windowed stepped caps lock? the windowed caps always makes a board seem more retro, so would fit well with the theme IMO.

This kit has 150 keys already. Just stepped windowed Shift Lock alone wouldn't make sense, I'd also have to add regular Shift Lock LED, Lock LED and Num Lock LED. So an additional 4 caps. Plus they'd be pad printed. Doubt I'll feel like adding those tbh.

Ah, oh well, no worries. Thanks for the fast reply! I also didn't know GMK's windowed caps were pad printed, more reason not to lol.
But how does the iso enter look like on a board :thinking:
Will you include the side-printed unit measurements?

Of course, what you see is what you get!
Any stepped shift avail?

is sub-legend double-shot?
When Zambumon posts a new interest check, do we start with NE cadet alphas? Or NE ASCII alphas? Or both at once?
Cool.
Has 2B been used on other sets? I can't seem to recall if so. Any idea how close it is to the custom color of gray used for Space Cadet?

Not that I can think of rn. I'll do some color chip photos in the coming days, though I suck with making color accurate pics sooooo
I'm not exactly sure why Micro Switch's keyboard does not feature ASCII sublegends on all alphas, I did complete it using the standard ASCII table
Definitely interested, though I haven't found R0 to my liking after trying it.
Please consider an R1 row kit as well as a different modifier (text+icon) kit for Backspace, Tab, Enter/Return, Shift

Oh. Uh, could you add the few control code sublegends that are missing? I find that I use ^[ and ^@ more than most of the ones on alphas (other than ^C, ^D, ^Z). I don't think it'll detract from the aesthetics either; in fact, I kind of like it better with the complete set of control codes present.Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/EpIvyha.png)
(missing sublegends highlighted in yellow)
Also, I see you went with HT instead of TAB for tab. Good choice, that's one that most ASCII table sites get wrong.
Edit: Forgot to add DEL.
A few more things: +1 for using Return, +2 for 1.75u Function, and would you consider using Scroll↲Lock instead of Lock so it matches the rest of lock key legends and Page↲Up, Page↲Down?
That's actually a pretty good idea to add the remaining sublegends with a 64 offset. I didn't want to add them as single keys like a novelty kit, I'll look into this approach instead!
I really dislike the asymmetry of Scroll Lock when placed between Print and Pause (making those also two-liners is even worse). I'll have to say no for now, but I understand the request.
Can I buy an Oblotzky season pass or will I have to order every set separately?"10/10 would bankrupt again." - Chyrosan22.

This is a neutral colored set. Does it make sense to split out numpad/iso into it's own kit to get cheaper base kit pricing like Minimal or 9009?
How about an addon kit of 2B relegendables?
Thoughts on adding a FACK kit à la Salty kit?
I know it won’t run on drop, but maybe there’s enough interest?
Can I just say that this keyset is full of shift? :)) :))
I'll ask out of abject, complete ignorance (and deal with the flack later).
Given that the bottom row is fully R5... do R5 molds for the split space bar keys already exist, or do those need to be created as well?

Spacekeys are Spacebar shaped (Convex). There is no 'R5' Spacebar.
I suspect this is one of those sets that looks boring in the renders but when you see a real set you’re like “where have you been all my life.”
Ortho? Ergo?
Y no ergo kit? (instantly regrets buying expensive "crimson" Sol 2 plate)
Space cadet colevrak was beautiful too.

Ergo is really hard to push to MOQ. I don't want to have vendors buy out MOQ and then have those kits sit in their warehouse forever (I still have 5 kits of GMK Calm Depths Assembly and MyKeyboard.eu still has some stock left as well). I'm staying away from odd layouts for GB's outside of Drop for the time being, sorry.
So excited to see 1.25c in the space bars kit!! ;DThat 1.25c mold was proposed for the GMK Blanks GB back in May & it didn't reach the MOQ, so it must be very, very new.
Is this the first gmk set for that mold? I've not seen it in any GB/ICs.
With This being such a simple and clean Colorway set... I would bet a substantial amount of money that an ortho kit Like GMK Minimal's Would get to MOQ...or even be worth throwing into a child set.Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/ILXvLtB.jpg)
The Ortho Community has grown so much in the past year!
I would buy 30 Ortho Kits structured like this to assist in the cause.

I’d buy if there was ortho. Prefer ergo but ortho support is minimum for me.

+4 for ortho.
Just need 1, 2u bar. 2, 1u bars would be nice, but not mandatory.
As for mods,
R2: Out
R3: Data or Read
R4: Shift and Enter
4, 1u keys. That's it. If you're worried about base price, you can stick them in spacebar kit.
Edit: forgot this was r5 bottom. But you'd just need to add an up arrow to r5, so that's 5, 1u keys now. Still quite reasonable.
Um.... Can you add in an N6 or CV yellow accent for esc and enter? Thanks. Will pay you for it, promise.+1
Seriously though, it would look tasty. And there are SOOOOO many nice sets out there that could use it (including space cadet :p)

Another vote for ortho support here. Just a few more keys in the base set and it would work. I'm not sure if it was Oblotzky in the past who was concerned about ortho layouts using R0 and R5 due to most ortho keyboards not having a tilt. Personally, I would love to have the opportunity to try out R0 and R5 on one of my ortho builds.

I too would like to see Ortho. Nerdy legends like these and nerdy ortho boards seem like a good match indeed.
Ortho users rise up!!

I plan to offer a 40%/Ortho kit with text-only legends, I'll update in a few weeks when I'm done grinding WoW.
I'm assuming this set is gonna quite expensive isn't it? Like, Close to $200 on the Base?
I know Drop will buy a lot of extras but I don't think this has the following that Oblivion had. Curious to see how all the new molds play out for pricing.

It won't be on Drop (see first page). It won't be 200$.

Hmmm now with GMK ashes. I only have room for 1 grey keyset in my deck of keys. Choices. Choices.Simple solution: get one more board.
After seeing GMK Lunar go for the same colors on the alphas, I can't help but wish for some accented mods.

This is based on a specific vintage keyboard. Which didn't have accent keys. :D

Accented keys wouldn't be hard to add from other keysets if you so desire. R2 Nautilus is dropping in spring 2020 if you need yellow bars.

40bit kit added. Requested pricing from GMK. Please let me know if I ****ed it up.
If everything goes smooth we're going live November 1st. Thank you for your interest!
40bit is looking really good.
• I agree that R2 "Back" is unnecessary, you can just use the R2 "Delete" from the base kit… unless people are digging the aesthetic of it saying "Back". I personally like it, but I'd much rather see the key requested in the next bullet if it makes a difference.
• An additional 2u Space would be the one key I would really hope to see added, it's gaining in popularity. There are a handful of boards that use a double 2u Space and would save from having to buy the Spacebar kit for one key (like I had to for the GMK Calm Depths Assembly). Planck rev6 & EOTW, Preonic rev3, Boardwalk Ortho, Eco, Iris, Levinson, Nyquist, and a handful of other split boards.
• A R4 1.5u Shift would be great, if possible. UT47/Gnap! and others use this. There are no R4 1.5u keys in any of the kits unfortunately.
Definitely in on this. Thx.
Stepped "Control" please? It'll be great with hhkb types.

Just out of curiosity... does a stepped vertical ("ISO") Enter key even exist in Cherry MX mount? In IBM Model M keyboards, ALL Caps Lock and vertical Enter keys are stepped, while in Cherry MX keycaps, both varieties of Caps Lock exist, but AFAIK, all vertical Enter keys are NON-stepped.
I was wondering what the color code for the grey used was. I haven’t seen it asked about or mentioned

You did mention you are a fan of correct legends, so I'd kindly request having the correct icons on the numpad ("/" and "*"), since those are the characters that are displayed on screen when pressing those.^ this

Appreciate the answer, but I think it's wrong. The keycode that is sent is / and *. By your logic nothing is an alpha since it can be interpreted by software differently. For instance, pressing the [ key on my keyboard displays Š.
Even ignoring that, having / and * is more "old school" and in line with the theme of the set.

Woosh man, stop pressuring the designer with your agenda. He gave you his reasoning.
Here to say great pricing also - just joined. Thanks!
