[GB] GMK HONEYWELL (In Production)

[handcraftedbits]

Yeah if you were in the GB you should get all the red accent keys.  I did.  Ping Oco, I'm guessing they just made a mistake.

[sherryton]

Just got my set. Only got one red accent key (iso enter) with the base set. I was under the impression that the original group buy participants would get the whole red accent kit as shown in the pictures.....

It's a great set but those red accent keys really set it off and it's not the same without them. It's odd because the GMK box lists the base as having the full 155 pieces and Originative doesn't have the accent kit listed as a separate item.

If I can't get the red accent kit then I may off load my order.

Responded to you in the email!

Thanks for getting back to me Sherryton. It was probably the add on items (stabs, tactile sampler) I recently bundled in that shipment that caused the order date confusion.

The grey is spot on! BUT, i should have looked sooner, a second 1.5u ALT (ignore, there is a second 1.5u ALT GR)and possible another 1u R4 FN or blank key would have been nice.

[frostylove]

Just got mine. RO2 red is waaaaaaay much better than classic RO1, it's so VIBRANT!

It was my opinion that users could use the CODE keys for that if needed, there was an extra at one point, but we def had to trim the fat on this to reach a good price for the GB! Those BOOPs are amazing!!

Yeah, and honestly i'm not sure i'll need them when I put this set on my next board. You have it covered. Thanks again for making an awesome set.

Honeywell HHKB:



First Cherry/GMK set and I have to say I'm very pleased.  I now understand what the hype is about;'; besides the profile being nice, the extra thickness of the caps seems to give a bit weightier feeling which I'm fond of.  Also Honeywell looks great, as others have said it even looks better in person.

I'm glad you are enjoying it! There's another key in there for the backspace, "Delete". It looks much better.

[a_ak57]

I went with the Backspace since that's what I use it for but you're right about the Delete, just looks cleaner.

Yeah, "Delete" is the standard GMK key for that simply because they can't fit "backspace" onto a single line. I also prefer the "Delete" as well though  :thumb:

At the end of the day, without a nav cluster like on a TKL you don't have multiple deletes. That would be the only thing that would really drive me nuts, if I had duplicate keys haha.

Sheraton gave people who bought the set a chance to buy one. He did the same with Sky Dolch.  I hope this become a pattern; I want that Miami Nights fugu!

Thanks for letting us know! I'll definitely follow up with the manufacturer.

[roostrc0gburn]

after comparing honeywell against penumbra and originative cryllic, i see that honeywell and penumbra both have issues with stem supports, and a couple stems look like they have been burned or something. just a wild guess that this has something to do with the custom colors, because cryllic has no issues. i will look at a couple more sets this weekend when i move everything to trays

Love the all grey! Love how versatile this set is, with the three options for Esc and the options for arrows and enter.

[Endeavour1934]

Got my set, it's great!. The gray keycaps are really beautiful. I'd love to have that shade of gray on Hyperfuse instead of CC. It matches better the cold tones of Hyperfuse.

On my clueboard I just built.

On another not my top two rows have the same issue as most other with the broken cross supports. Also Sherry what should we do about scratched caps?

Didn't even notice all the broken cross supports... is that normal with GMK?

Pretty much all of mine have at least one missing, roughly half of them have all 4 parts of the cross broken

This is really disappointing and I believe it affects the resale value substantially. Sheraton,  is GMK planning to do anything to make this right?

Some of us posted our findings here https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=89508.0

[kmba]

Another recent set had issues with the cross supports as well. GMK must be having production issues.. and QC issues.  This certainly falls solely on GMK.

[sherryton]

I'll be speaking more to GMK this week. I'll let you guys further know the issue when we discuss about it!
