[IC] SP SA Carbon R3

[source]

Sad to see no umka mods. Any chance of having those in the Bone/Boneyard gb?

When Bone/Boneyard SP SA happens, i will look into it. From first sight that might be doable.

+1 for SA Umka
Will keep quiet about skull backspace nov until then. That's hard for me.

[WorldExclusive]

Interested. I have a cheap version of this set, so it would be good to get the real thing.

So exciting! Anyone know if SA Oblivion monochrome mods will work with Carbon bone? I wasn’t able to get the bone extra mods kit but Instead I’ve managed to get three kits of rolling bones from all the keycap recap throughout the years.  ) Still, it’s nice to know T0mb3ry is considering an SA Boneyard drop in the future so maybe in the end I’ll get to expand my bone TKL mods for other layouts someday. For now my only option is SA Oblivion, and I’ve heard the grey is the same as Carbon but not the white, not sure if it is noticeable if I take a few caps here and there and mix it with my TKL bone mods to be able to use it in say a tsangan layout.

I’ve seen the GMK equivalent and I think your ideas got legs. The bone vs white is noticeable if you look for it but the gestalt works.

That’s good to know. I just need a smaller shift key and some 1u fn keys and the rest I can cover with rolling bones clover and spade for the 1.5u mods. Sounds good. I’ll keep watch of this thread since I find T0mb3ry drops fascinating as usual.

[rowie]

I’ll just leave this here. The good old times. I need to use my Carbon in my new recent board.

I'd love an ErgoDox kit. I am still trying to collect a full set from SA Carbon R2 and I have a feeling it may be hard to find the ErgoDox kits so having it in the R3 would be great for me. I may end up making a mishmash of R2 and R3 for the kits that are the same.

P.S. Love the fact that this time you are going for 343211 as opposed to 443211.

P.P.S. SP SA forever!
P.P.P.S. SA Carbon forever! (I've tried to design the perfect keycap set for me and I just can't come up with anything I like more than SA Carbon)

So, the triangle arrows were cancelled?

[gnhuy91]

how about Carbonski dual alphas?

[T0mb3ry]

how about Carbonski dual alphas?

Too many options (there are already three alphas available) would lower the chance of hitting higher MOQs thus i'd like to keep amount of kits as low as possible.

[T0mb3ry]

Deskmat Update
I did not mentioned before probably. The deskmats will be available in November in following stores:

• EU: Oblotzky Industries
• NA: NovelKeys

- Added Toxic Skull deskmat

[IOVERCALLHISTIOCYTES]

awesome deskmat. Looking forward to GMK Toxic.

[desipalen]

No ergo kit?

So sad about the lack of ergo support.

Unfortunately the Ergo kits don't do well lately so i decided to skip it.

Throwing my hat in for the Ergo support.  Really wish they'd do better.  Been so many GBs that we just miss out on b/c of the lack of support. Had to switch to a 40% to get any love and still don't see a lot of love there.

[MdotMaxson]

Check out that patented grey this guy has going on.

[nasp]

Looking forward to SA Toxic... 


On a serious note, have you considered adding 3u bars to the spacebar kits? Please and thank you :pray:

[gaustin]

Any chance of a Mac mod kit for this run? Since the bottom row is a different profile, you can't just grab the R2 kit from mechmarket...

[rowie]

[mention]T0mb3ry [/mention] I dedicate this arrangement to you. I can never decide between regular Carbon and Bones so I pretty much combine it every time to do Carbon Bones.

[IOVERCALLHISTIOCYTES]

Nice setup rowie. Love those hammer skulls.

I bought the blacksimon iso 1 key macropad solely for rolling bones iso enter

[ifohancroft]

@rowie Nice!
I have this Hammer SA Carbon Artisan but in the Row 3 version.

[yqliang]

I have R2 but figured out I did not have enough child kit with the keyboard lineup expansion. Will definitely go all in for this round! 

[swyte]

The keycaps that got me interested in MK, definitely going to be picking up a set!

I THIRD support for Ergodox. especially after seeing that picture of Rowie's ergo with Carbon--it just looks so sweet.

[ChrisJoy]

Hi, will there be a GB access in China?

[darthcapn]

Can we have orange alphas as an option?

Hi T0mb3ry, is there a back story for the set? I've checked the GMK and R2 posts on GH and can't seem to see any. It's been such an iconic set, just quite curious about your inspiration / origin of the design

There is no real back story for Carbon theme. I used the color scheme back in the days in Need for Speed games from the point where NFS introduced matte paints. So the color scheme was first there. The inspiration for theme "Carbon" (chemical element) came from sets like Granite or Graphite which is in my opinion have an elegant theme instead of lifting a theme from existing franchise (movies, games or whatever). The set has nothing to do with Half Life game but I introduced the Lambda because there was a request by some users in the very first interest check for Half Life lambda.

Very interesting, love that it's more complex than just copying something existing

You don't need an origin story. It's not a superhero. It's keycaps.

How do you know? Maybe it's parents died and now this set has sworn to protect other innocent sets from aftermarket price gougers?!

No you don't need one, but it's a nice thought

Frankly you don't NEED most things in your life, what are we doing here based on needs??

[cijanzen]

I’m down for carbonski alphas at least. Would pair well with other sets and great with Oblivion.

[carebe]

Take my money, let's go!

[Gimbal]

Oh there is no hurry, the Norde kit is still is missing.

[mimalik]

I know it may be a moot point and there are already too many alpha kits, but without orange alphas Carbon is not complete for me. Please reconsider, atleast SP doesnt require high moq unlike GMK. I am pretty sure if offered it will meet the moq.

Seconded

[bluefacedbeast]

I love this set and am excited about the ability to get one. I might be in the minority but I much prefer the solid triangle arrow keys offered last time to the thinner arrows or the default text arrows. Thanks for offering this again.

I always thought this LLOYD'S calculator was the inspiration for this keycap, but it's interesting to note that it was NFS

[T0mb3ry]

I'll look how current SP SA Oblivion V2 will end and depending on that
i might introduce Bones kits (mods, numpad and Rolling Bones) and probably ergodox kit.

But again that is not set in stone and is not guaranteed to happen.

Well NFS was not the inspiration. You are allowed in NFS to paint your car as you like. It's like saying Gimp, Paint, Photoshop or any other graphics edit Software are inspiration of each artist who use them  )

[pcire]

Gotta put those oblivion orders in!

I need those bones kits!

[gaustin]

I’m all in for Bones. Honestly one of my all time favorite looks and I’d love to have it in SA.

[x_mister]

any chance to get those Double Modifiers Arrow Keys in the normal Modifiers Kit or as an extra kit?

[solomonshv]

ne rama or salvun novelty plans?

[ChrisJoy]

Hi T0mb3ry. Really hope the classic triangle arrow kit can return in R3 GB. Pleeeeeeeease consider this.

[ThuyPN]

Hi T0m, I have orange alphas and modifiers kit r2. I have plans to buy numpad kit r3
So, can I mix enter of numpad kit r3 with modifier r2 for a fullsize keyboard? It's differences is 112344 and 112343.

[jorgenslee]

From a buyer's perspective(and my wallet). Is there a chance you could add an extra TAB to the modifier kit? From the looks of it, it could definitely support two layout(HHKB and TKL) if the extra TAB is added. This way, people could split the kit with someone rather than have most of it lying around unused. This could also boost the sales for alphas.

[hiddensong]

This is finally going to happen! I despise MM and the price gouging. great to see T0mb3ry adding SA for R3. I've got a transparent orange acrylic case these are going in.
