[CTRL]ALT has been working very closely in collaboration with JTKeycaps to produce an alternative to the current keycap manufacturers, looking to match both the quality and flexibility of others in the marketplace

these are just a few teaser shots for now, and i will be showing more over the coming days
these are currently double shot abs in cherry profile and thickness as well as the capability to include custom legends
we wont be revealing the price just yet, but it will be considerably cheaper than other alternatives on the market
slowly over the coming weeks i will release info on the initial colorways we will offer

Way to shake up the industry, guys :D
Beyond awesome, I hope if goes really well for you :)
I use to REALLY HATE 60% keyboards because they don't offer any ability to fully customize them with custom legends so some keys are simply covered with excess GMK's or SP key-sets.
Now it looks like it's going to be 60% hording on my side of the planet. Looking forward to seeing a full set showing these custom legends showing original operability of the Poker or V60 setup (at least that's my understanding of Bunny's new key-set line for small keyboard lay outs).

sets arent 60% sir, thats just the boards i run, full set includes winkey and winkeyless support, numpad and extras for compatibility with most boards, the initial runs wont have 1800 support but that will follow shortly when some of the initial investment is made back to invest in more tooling

Bunnylake, just out of personal interest, with GMK supposedly entering direct to consumer keycap sales with their Uniqey board, do you think they will be more reluctant to do Group Buys?
Also, what do you plan to do with this new manufacturing capabilities if I may ask? Are you thinking retail or GBs or both? Is this move to do with the pricing and availability of GMK keycaps and making high quality thick ABS move available to the community or is it to do more with custom legends and manufacturing keycaps that GMK don't offer?
I know these are a lot of questions but I'm keen to learn more about this exciting new development

* Spacebars - can the community fund molds for unusual space bar sizes and stem positions? Would love a FC660 compatible set, always wanted one of those boards but the spacebar is a deal breaker.
* Are the pictured legends Cherry? They look pretty damned close from what I can tell.
* Will the colors be a limited pool like GMK or is there a possibility for custom colors?
Super excited guys, these look like they could really shake things up.

- anything can happen with the right amount of money sir
- the set is largely cherry, with a few slight alterations and extras not normally available
- any colours are possible, however this will be launching with some rpe set colours shortly, but after that community driven custom colour set gbs will be available with incredibly short lead times compared to what you are used to

The FC660M has an standard size 6.25u space bar, but its stems / stabs are oddly spaced. The best way to go with it is to desolder the switches, and take the plate to shop to get notches for the stabilizers at the standard positions being laser cutted. The, you will have a pretty much standard layout, but the 2.25u right shift, and the 1u fourth row windows key; that, could use any standard size space bar. I think, the problem is this design decision Leopold made.
Post by: njbair on Sun, 12 April 2015, 14:40:33
It seems like it would be an easy mistake to correct, though. Just change the design for future boards. That is, if Leopold pays enough attention to the modding community to notice it's a common issue.So in case anyone's interested, I looked into this. The Leopold has a 6.25U spacebar, not a 6U.

The board has been out for around 2 years, so I doubt it will be getting changed. Leopold seems to like it the way it is now.

I realize that this is still a ways off, and topre caps are just a dream at this point, but it made me think about how a topre keycap GB would work. Would there be 3 different variants for RF, HHKB, and FC600C? The Leopold with 55g domes and doubleshots would be my dream come true.Do rf,hhkb,fc600c use the same keycaps?
Post by: VanGhost on Thu, 16 April 2015, 20:03:38
AFAIK they all use the same alphas, I'm not sure about the mods. The FC600C does have a unique bottom row though.I realize that this is still a ways off, and topre caps are just a dream at this point, but it made me think about how a topre keycap GB would work.

Pretty sure it'd just be a mega pack including the necessary mods for all those keyboards. It's like 3 extra keys for HHKB and 7 for the FC660C. Unlike MX, there are few enough Topre layouts that it's reasonable to include everything.

2, We will do IC to decide whether will other color options join the first group buy.
3, We hope we can find out a reasonable price for everyone who is interested in our new set.

This is exciting news. I can't wait to see the mockups. I will be sitting it out, only because I have more MX sets than boards, but look forward to seeing the set finalized.

So wait, will the sets of sliders have the necessary stabs as well?
nope
really the only stab issue topre users face is the spacebar
but for that you just need to do a little modding work yourself which is pretty easy

Most topre boards use 6u spacebars anyway so even using a donor Novatouch wouldn't let you convert the spacebar.
Situation? Good.

I don't understand the stabilizers part. You need Novatouch stabilizers to make a proper Topre to MX mod, or just can't put MX caps on Shift, Enter, etc, don't you?
tope boards dont use stabs on those keys
Post by: ramnes on Mon, 04 May 2015, 10:50:26
Also, I'm not really sure that MX caps are designed to be as stable as Topre caps on a single mount.
Post by: BunnyLake on Mon, 04 May 2015, 10:53:47
Well, it's not stabilized as in the Novatouch with a stem on each side, but the slider is still different than 1u sliders.

they work fine for me

Are JTKeycaps unable to doubleshot windowed keys or was that a design decision?

Well the windows key are still doubleshot just that they are doing a clear shot.
You would need triple shot to have legends unless you did pad printing.

Yes, that's what I meant. Now that I think about it, it makes sense that windowed keycaps need a third shot unless you pad print it. I guess it's pretty obvious but the thought never occurred to me, could also be this cold I've recently gotten.

I'm assuming the chances of this happening are pretty low but would it be possible to add stepped and non-stepped R3 Control keys?Seconded, I like my keyboards to be free of Caps Lock funk, as I map Caps Lock to Control *and* Control to Control.
Bonus points for keys to replace the Windows and Menu keys with anything else: Plain Purple, Plain White, White Stars, Anchors, Icebergs -- this is the Unshine-able Titanic set right?, Meta, Super, Hyper, MacOS Spirography looking Command Icon (ala Toxic mods) or any UNIXy icons -- Gentoo works nice for purple colorways.
Any chance of Iconics for the mod keys, Left arrow for Backspace, right arrow for Delete, Caret for Control, Diamond for Super, Split Pathway for Alt and so on.
Bunny, you did say there was a mod pack in the works, right?

I'd probably get some extra spacebars.

That purple and black is what I would have wanted the Bro set to be.

Would it be possible in the future to add a HHKB/Realforce (I'm not sure if it's the same on the realforce) MX spacebar that's compatible with the topre stabs? Seeings as this set will be sold along with Topre-mx compatible sliders? And the right 6u size?
depending on these buys success, anything is "possible"
its really in everyones hands as to how justifiable things are in the future

we can add additional spacebars to the gb
they come in a pack of 2, so a 6.25 and a 7x
a 2 pack of white would be $2.50
a 2 pack of black would be $2.50
a 2 pack of purple would be $3.50

Blank Cherry-profile spacebars? I am buying white and black.

depending on these buys success, anything is "possible"i'll probably buy one of the first sets just to support the effort (very nice job with the quality and the pricing), but i agree in that some mx-to-topre compatible spacebars would be a real plus for the future. you'd be able to enter your own market space there as well, as now the only accessible replacement option is the black spacebar. every other color currently requires the purchase of an additional set/keyboard once the spacebar starts to develop shine, which is a real terrible position to be put in for topre owners.
its really in everyones hands as to how justifiable things are in the future
i am curious though, do you know if topre/cm has a patent on the mx-style slider? i didn't see anything on the usa patent page, but with ya'll pricing the sliders so aggressively, you're actually likely to hurt cm's novatouch business. and i know they paid for a part of the tooling at topre's plant for them, so with all that money invested they'd be very likely to protect their patent, should they hold one.

getting close
jsut adding the description on the site
i have the gb thread ready
will be any time now
also to note
we have a bit of an issue with the validation settings on the site for the spacebars, so they are gonna be 50 cents more than i mentioned above for a 2 pack, because the site is auto rounding the prices up, and we dont have time to fix it prior to the buy going live

but until they do
here it is
hey guys
delighted to be able to finally open up this gb
i have been working closely with JT Keycaps for some time now, collaborating on this
this will be our initial offering
double shot abs cherry profile
$58 or $73 with mx compatible topre pom sliders
(http://i.imgur.com/fKS45Id.png)
$30
(http://i.imgur.com/CoOkzxr.png)
$53 or $68 with mx compatible topre pom sliders
(http://i.imgur.com/8uELs19.png)
JT Keycaps is completely new, and these are the debut sets, as with anything new, it needs a starting point, we have put a huge amount of time in to testing these, but they will only get better over time, however please be aware, as this is the first large scale production run, there can be some slight errors, or things we may change at a later date, but every cap will have very strict quality control
here are some pictures of the actual caps offered in both sets
(http://i.imgur.com/CChf4JE.jpg)
(http://i.imgur.com/0OeVdLH.jpg)
i will post a lot more pictures in this post shortly once i have time to get things set up here
additionally, the first order will get a [CTRL]ALT tshirt
the first 100 orders will also get one of these
(http://i.imgur.com/ZeadePP.jpg)
this gb will be open for 4 weeks from today, once the gb is complete, the turnaround time will be fairly short compared to a normal gb, approximately 3-4 weeks, for future buys, this time will get much shorter, however as this is the first one, itll have very strict QC and a bit of a learning curve that will be streamlined later
shipping will be
$7.50 US
$18 international
if you would like to make a large order, please contact me before ordering via the site
please keep this thread on topic, and if you have any queries please feel free to pm me
you can place your order here:
https://ctrlalt.io/buys/jtk-debut
payments are taken via stripe (debit or credit card)
if you are unable to pay via stripe, please place an order on the site, leave the order as unpaid, and either pm me or use the contact form on the site, giving me the order number and a paypal email (please note, if you pay via paypal, additional paypal fees will be added)

When is kit 6 going live? I will probably wait for that to go up before I place my order
i dont know that it is now, we chose to include them with the kits for now, as a nod to people supporting the keysets (the reason for the sliders existing at all is to give topre users a chance to enjoy these keys)
so im not sure if we will add them separately just yet, but may do

No worries! I'd probably grab 2-3 sets for future topre boards if they were made avaiable. I just placed my order =]

Topre sliders would change my life. I can't even use these caps given my HHKB, but I am considering $68 that I don't have just for the sliders.
Welcome to Geekhack!
Maybe you could find someone who wanted only the keycaps and split an order?

Bunny already confirmed they will be sold separately in the near future, and at a cheaper price as well
Thanks, I thought the question had to have been asked, and answered (knowing bunny).

i tried that :). no one seems to be interested so far. guess i'm going to wait for the sliders to be available as a separate gb.
