[IC] JTK YOLCH [GB MAY 1]

[iNViSiBiLiTi]

I'm a sucker for dolch sets, this looks really good. Can JTK do icon only mods?

not unless i want to pay for new legend molds, no

no balls

do it

they can be used with red riot too

icon mods with red riot lmao

[keylabskeycaps]

This is tempting ...

i knew you'd like this one

I've been wanting a decent Dolsh/Yolch for a while, without paying the GMK premium.

I have a couple of Tai Hao sets, but, you know, Tai Hao.

Any thoughts on a black on yellow Enter and Esc?

Adds too much cost to the set because of how JTK does their molding. Weird batch thing. I've decided not to do it this time around.

I can understand that, with my little knowledge of how these are cast.

There is always:

Which would probably be similar enough for anyone wanting one.

Black on yellow enter and esc would be awesome. Shame the cost would be too great, I think it'd really compliment the set. Looks awesome though, very interested.

i asked again today to see if i could do it with a custom mold for what may end up being a reduced cost, since i think this would be really good for this set

but i'm not optimistic, i think it might work out about the same

partly, i'm just not well versed in how they do things, so i'm trying to work with them to get more interesting things done

if yolch and RR do well, expect to see many more JTK GBs from me, i really like working with them so far

Thank god a R1 1U backspace. All keysets should have this as standard.

alright so i don't know if i said it anywhere, but this set and red riot** will both have jtk trays

someone asked me about it so i wasn't sure if i mentioned it

[Krelbit]

alright so i don't know if i said it anywhere, but this set and red riot** will both have jtk trays

someone asked me about it so i wasn't sure if i mentioned it

You forgot to mention that they can opt out of buying a tray to save $5

That's a really good deal.  I never use the trays anyway.

Have seen JTK's cases though? I think they are well worth the $5 TBH. Here is the trays my JTK Toxic kit came in.


I mean I get it if the trays were like Maxkey's, ePBT/Gateron's, or even GMK's. Although these things can be used for storing all kinds of stuff other than the caps. They remind of some tackle boxes that came packaged in with the last fishing backpack I got. They are nice, thick, & sturdy. I was actually kinda blown away by the packing compared to any other high quality key cap sets I got.

Oh, those are nicer than I realized.  I thought they were just like the maxkey ones.  GMK are the worst.  Those damn tabs always screw up.

But these look nice for $5

before launch ideally

it'll be good stuff

Info on artisan collabs coming soon

Wooooohoooooo! Let's get this **** funded to 500k boys!

Need them artisan molds.

[Puddsy]

EU and China proxies are confirmed. Caps-Unlocked.com for the Europeans, and zFrontier for China.

Product pages coming soon.

Still finalizing info on artisan collab. More info in the coming days.

[Puddsy]

Was supposed to get info on artisans today, but there's been a slight delay.

Once I have pics, I'll be able to tell you exactly what we've got.

I think you guys will love it.

Did the pantone colors ever get sorted out? Curious since this is now the closest set to what I'm looking for after the sudden change with Serika. I'm hoping to possibly mix in some other sets that I have, but I'd just like to know ahead of time if the colors will match close enough or not. :]

i've opted not to colormatch this set, since it'll bring the cost over 100 at the lowest MOQ, and will delay the set at least one month

i think JTK will send me color samples before final production, though, so it's not a major worry at this point

Is there any way to know what these colors will be in comparison to some kind of standard, then? I don't know much about JTK. But do they have, heck, even hex values or something for the colors they'll be using?

Hoping to get a sort of Dolch-Gabbana look but with the yellow you've got here. It's much more vibrant and appealing!

supposedly the JTK render (the one showing all the keys) is pretty much color accurate

it'll be a more vibrant yellow than D&G, since that's my preference over gold

i'll see if i can get pantones or hexes for their colors ahead of time

i can say that it won't be color accurate other dolch sets, the mods will be fully black as opposed to dark grey, so no mix/match

[TerryMathews]

If the mods are supposed to be black, your JTK render is off. JTK's black is super black, see the JTK WoB run for reference.

Fantastic, thank you!

Yeah, this was going to be my next question. So is the render (relatively) color-accurate for the other colors, the modifiers aside? Since they appear dark grey in it.

they told me it would be their standard black, but communicating with them is a little hard since their rep doesn't speak the greatest english

i sent an email yesterday asking for confirmation

it's possible we just have to wait until the samples show up, which isn't ideal in terms of timing, but seems like a good solution to me in terms of getting the colors right

[yinzer]

Looking forward to seeing samples. Bummer I won't be able to mix some of the mods in with my N9 ergodox kit. That said, still very excited for this set. I may have to break out the key dyeing pot and put together something that matches .. or just pretend that I don't see the difference.
