Agreed, I like the red/white colorway, but I would be much more likely to use a printed spacebar if it had a company I actually like on it.

Totally agree, [CTRL]ALT is like what The Berrics is for skateboarding ;D the more the better.

With a sufficient number of orders and recurring business they may well create such custom space bars.

You should do a "Geekhack" spacebar extravaganza set, so we'd have a matching "Geekhack" spacebar for every set out there :p

I don't understand why you'd have an R2 1.5u Backspace without an R1 1u Backslash.
because we need orders in order to add things to the set, so its constantly expanding, but it takes time
the more people support this, the bigger itll grow and more will be added each time

Same, with the exception of a couple legend irregularities the first run looked to be of stellar quality.

That orange set looks a lot like SkiData+, so much so that I'm worried for Karura's and Ctrl-Alt cannibalizing each other's orders.
That's what I thought as well.
I have to say that I really doubt Skidata+ can reach MOQ now, because all the new members will turn to the set that is considerably cheaper...

We will not have a problem, as long as we can retain the continuous support that the community has shown us :)
There are quite a lot of differences between SKIDATA+ and this one, such as more compatibility support for different layouts, charcoal grey base keys instead of black, and German quality for example.
Someone who finds orange mods jarring might also prefer the OG Skidata colourway.
With the continuous support, I'm confident that SKIDATA+ will meet MOQ :thumb:

Yep, you raise a very good point! I've been very aware of the problems (especially with the legends), and have been at the forefront of investigating, having conducted some keyboard science of my own to reveal the problems:
Keyboard Science: SKIDATA+ Edition (http://imgur.com/a/gsX65)
The problems discovered have been brought up with GMK in hopes of preventing such problems for SKIDATA+, and with some luck and perseverance, we expect to see a very good batch. :thumb:
Anyway, I digress... I'm really looking forward to the Orange/Black set as well, especially with those CS:GO keys! ;D
No doubt, with dat spacebar, I will finally beat Vesper and reach Global Elite. :p
Edit: I think the two sets would complement each other really well, if anyone wants to mix em.

Dunno about mixing them, as I would imagine that the shades of black/orange between the two sets would be different to some degree. Possibly not though.
Apart from that, I don't see much difference at all between the two sets, except for SKIDATA+ using symbols for mods and JTK using text. With the price of the JTK set to be likely around half of the cost of a GMK set, I can imagine that there will be people that were committed to SKIDATA who will now most likely be purchasing the JTK set.

Post by: Dernubenfrieken on Tue, 29 September 2015, 06:24:13
The whole point of mixing sets is that the shades have to be different. If you just make one set of orange mods and black alphas and the other the opposite way, the sets have no reason to exist individually!
Its about whether the orange colors match up across the sets. If you want to be colorblind, go ahead, but most people think it would look bad.

I absolutely ADORE that coke layout. And doubleshot spacebars are SORELY needed. A definite buy for me.The whole point of mixing sets is that the shades have to be different.

Not only that, the keys will feel completely different because DCS Profile is considerably thinner than those JT keycaps.
Post by: BunnyLake on Tue, 29 September 2015, 06:30:42
firstly, my only knowledge of the set at all was seeing the occasional forum avatar, whilst i do keep a good eye on the gb threads, i rarely if ever frequent the IC section of gh, whilst this timing may not be perfect, the road map for jtk is planned out a very long time in advance, and these colors and sets were planned before we ever let anyone know jtk was a thing, and ive been teasing parts of this set to friends including the spacebars for probably 6 + months at this point
so whilst these sets do look similar in mockups, i was not inspired in any way by that gb, and was simply looking to rerun nostalgia in a different and superior profile to before, and give it a new spin
now what may make this situation slightly worse, is much like the last jtk gb, we will also be offering reverse mods, so you can have a full orange and black set
all that being said, whilst i think the mockups may end up looking very similar, i think the end aesthetic results of the sets will be very different
i also dont think there will be any issues in numbers, gmk sells itself and both sets will be hitting the market at a considerably different pricepoint
there will always be a market for a premium product like gmk, and i have no doubt that if the set was going to hit MOQ before this, then it certainly will have no issue in doing so now this is revealed

edit: herp derp
so between my comment, this comment and a pm i got, i feel like i should elaborate a bit
i hope some people can read between the lines and work out what i can and cant say by how i say things
i do collaborate heavily with jtk
we speak and work at great lengths on the colour schemes and keys to be included etc, and what to add and when etc
we do all the art and mockups
i did not have input in the spacebars, aside from being asked for help with the designs
i do not agree with the use of copyright material, particularly for financial gain
however
at the end of the day, it is not my business, and this is what was wanted, its a very different culture
some of my feelings on what other users have done on this forum and in this community are very well documented, and whilst i agree legally there is little to no distinction to be made, i do think there is a big difference between someone making something using a logo for people to show there support or passion of a certain product or brand, in a field where they would otherwise not be able to, and stealing or copying something made and designed by somebody within our community
i do not make any money from these sets, and if i were to, i wouldnt be offering them, not that that makes a difference, but i do this work with jtk to help out a friend, and whilst i am facilitating the purchase of these sets, i only have so much control of the content, these are being offered and im extending that to the community
if this becomes a bigger issue, obviously i will take a look at what it happening here and the best course of action moving forward

im sure as it grows, there will be a lot more of that, but initially we have been working very closely together
Post by: swimmingbird on Tue, 29 September 2015, 11:50:32
Has the mystery buy been addressed already?
Also, just throwing this out there, but do you have licensing for these logos? It would be my thought that these companies may defend their brands and I don't want jtk to suffer. Just playing Devils advocate, I love the work being done.
its not my place to comment on the logos, they werent my choice, but i can say when running the gb, im not making any money at all from selling them, and they will remain completely seperate from being included in the keysets, and will be a separate pack in case any issues should arise
If you don't mind me asking Bunny, are the design choices a collaboration with JTK or do you tend to run your own respective designs? I'm guessing the orange and black is yours and maybe the red andorangewhite is JT's?
edit: herp derp
so between my comment, this comment and a pm i got, i feel like i should elaborate a bit
i hope some people can read between the lines and work out what i can and cant say by how i say things
i do collaborate heavily with jtk
we speak and work at great lengths on the colour schemes and keys to be included etc, and what to add and when etc
we do all the art and mockups
i did not have input in the spacebars, aside from being asked for help with the designs
i do not agree with the use of copyright material, particularly for financial gain
however
at the end of the day, it is not my business, and this is what was wanted, its a very different culture
some of my feelings on what other users have done on this forum and in this community are very well documented, and whilst i agree legally there is little to no distinction to be made, i do think there is a big difference between someone making something using a logo for people to show there support or passion of a certain product or brand, in a field where they would otherwise not be able to, and stealing or copying something made and designed by somebody within our community
i do not make any money from these sets, and if i were to, i wouldnt be offering them, not that that makes a difference, but i do this work with jtk to help out a friend, and whilst i am facilitating the purchase of these sets, i only have so much control of the content, these are being offered and im extending that to the community
if this becomes a bigger issue, obviously i will take a look at what it happening here and the best course of action moving forward

Absolutely! The more people who get in on this the more molds and investment into other awesome things can happen :thumb:

Also, you may want to be careful with the logos. It's unlikely, but if Coca Cola or Valve did decide to complain about the IP infringement, the legal costs would be catastrophic even though your infringement is trivial. I'm not saying it's right but just be careful. We want to see you guys producing caps for a long time to come!

This is true, while it might not be a big deal when someone does a small run of like Dota-related artisan caps for instance, this is like a full manufacturing process and is subject to enough orders that I would seriously worry about copyright. Plus, if JTK got hit with a suit halfway through the production, they most likely would not be able to refund everyone. I don't want to be "that guy" and I know that you can't do anything Bunny, but I don't personally really feel safe joining this buy to be honest.

ha didn't know that holyoops were not licensed to do that.... kind of funny that they risk it given that marvel/disney is probably very hawkish on the merchandise front
Post by: HoffmanMyster on Tue, 29 September 2015, 13:40:08
There's probably increased concern due to what happened with the Out Of the Vault GB, but that was SP (who is based in the US) being overly cautious and stopping the buy without explicit approval from Bethesda.
That was definitely due to them being based in the US. They're actually held accountable to these laws, so they can't mess around with that.

well jtk is in china, so they cant go after them, so that isnt a reasonable concernMy fears have been pretty much abated by the others in this thread, so I'm not worried about this actually happing, but just for future reference it's not true that being in China protects them. China is a member of WIPO and the Paris Convention for the Protection of Industrial Property, and they also have a specific Memorandum of Understanding with the U.S. regarding the protection of copyrights, so if Coke wanted to sue they technically could, although I agree that there's literally zero chance of that happening.

So yes, it should be possible :thumb:

With the black and orange CS:GO set, is there any chance to get a 6.5u or 6u spacebar? I know I have a few friends that would love to get the set (with the doubleshot spacebar) for their “Gaming” keyboards.
Also if JTK were to offer spacebars for those keyboards, he would be one of the only manufactures doing it and that could help sell even more sets.
On I side note, I really wish that ISO enter keys were part of the new sets.

Wouldn't really make sense for them to do it given how much all the molds would cost and that SP already offer custom legends

Yea, I understand that costs of new molds are quite high. However, seeing the amount of Carbon sets that were sold and how many Danger Zone is currently selling I'd say it might be worth considering.

Consider that hundreds of custom molds created by the community are kept with SP... to recreate those elsewhere would be tens if not hundreds of thousands of dollars

you arent even close
1 new mould costs thousands
unless you are talking about legends, in which case, a legend is relatively cheap with a company like sp, as they are tooled on a computer, whereas with jtk they are far more expensive, and made by hand

Once again, I understand that molds cost a butt-load of money. However, I personally have no idea what JTK's bank roll is like and I was just wondering if they were entertaining the idea of making different profile keysets. I wouldn't think they'd be interested in making anything new in the near future, but if they become extremely successful maybe they would consider expanding their product line somewhere in the distant future.
Just so we don't steer to far off topic, I love the orange/black set and will most likely be buying one.

The problem with a cool new super key is the cost of tooling. The cherries would even be OK IMO. We would just need them in a 1.25 unit key.

Thanks for the response, that is pretty exciting news that the plan is to reduce the cost even further! The price is already very competitive with GMK and it appears that the quality has surpassed them as well. I have nothing but high hopes for JTK caps, I can't wait to get my first of JTK caps.
Edit: Forgot to mention the doubleshot spacebars! Very excited to see these go into production as well.

The last JTK was about $60 tho so it may be around there.
This is accurate given what I know. BunnyLake is trying to get the first round of JTK caps out and that buy all wrapped up before opening this one. His wife is expecting any day now though, so in all likelihood he will drop off the face of the earth for at least a week once she goes into labor...

I mean... the group buy is for the two sets you see
I meant in the future... obviously

Bunny's got a lot on his plate at the moment, we just need to be patient. I'm surprised he's getting anything done when his wife should be expecting soon.

+1 getting anything done the first couple weeks after the little guy is born will be almost impossible, so everyone will have to just relax and take a deep breath (and maybe even go outside :confused:).

Sorry if this's been asked many times b4 but are you planning to add support for ISO?
I think Bunny said there will be more keys added as more orders come in so that'll probably include ISO.
Post by: SpAmRaY on Mon, 12 October 2015, 07:20:43
And F J with bars too? This shouldn't have gmk moq, I hope.From what I understand for everything you want added they have to fund it and create it. It isn't like GMK or SP where every cap is profit JTK have to recoup their initial costs.
If people want more selection then support the current group buys even if they don't have everything you want now so they can improve and do more in the future.

The advantage to have an easy re-configurable, programmable board is that I just changed my layout back again to ANSI. I learned the hard way that ISO people are a minority, and most vendors, JT included do not have enough potential market to offer the ISO option.

However, I am not a lawyer and depending on me for legal advice is foolish. ;)

For now there is nothing to worry about. JTK is in China so even if Coca-Cola sent a cease and desist there really isn't much that could be done. Group buys have been getting away with it for a long time.

yeah its been commented on a ton of times by myself already
the legends are being constantly improved, and there will be tons of changes made in time for this buy

TL;DR - this is basically a better quality nostalgia set which bunny has already run. Skidata supports more layouts like iso etc.
It is a little tricky when there are similar sets running, but these are both GH colors, so hopefully that keeps people interested in at least one.

Maybe its just me, but a set of orange on white alphas in true asiimov fashion would be really awesome imo!
Also how about changing up one of the custom legends (like the anchor) to match the set themes more?
(f.e. aperture science or asiimov style logo for the orange on black xD)
I know its far fetched, just my two cents...
Great work Bunny and JTK!

This is the biggest thing I'm after. Especially after picking up the Carbon Black set from Originative to (somewhat) match my HHKB's current keys...but I also totally don't have an alert set up on changedetection.org...

Is it confirmed CB? The last thing I remember seeing was that it was "in the ballpark". Could mean something like Olivetti, Granite, or Wyse. Maybe IBM Model M? (close to CB, but a little different) Any of those would be cool in my book.

Will a mini buy for the topre to mx sliders be included? Or do you plan on just releasing those through the store only?

does anyone here talking about school colours etc have access to getting things like letterman patches etc for there schools, being from somewhere as rubbish as the uk, im really fascinated by that kinda stuff
My school would only grant you permission to buy one if you ended up lettering the sport you played, I'm assuming most schools were similar. I never had any but I'm pretty sure my sister has a jacket or two back in the day from all the years she played soccer. Funny thing too is my high school colors were black and orange.

This is how it was at my school too. I think I have one set of letters in maroon and gray.

I wish my school actually had varsity fencing. Just having a club team (whilst competing with varsity teams) did not allow for the opportunity to letter =/ I did in high school however, but that doesn't really matter.

I think they were around $25, not sure if that's including the stabilized sliders though. Does anyone know if the spacebar slider allows the use of a 6.25 spacebar?

The spacebar sizing on most Topre boards is 6u rather than 6.25u so anyone who ordered the slider sets with their orders are going to be receiving topre spacebars with their order

The CC set showed the white and the red keys in the original post and you get that with the base set.
Did the CSGO set change in the IC to an all black set?
With so many GBs that opened in Oct and Nov, I'm now asking as I really want both a CSGO and a CC set.

Bit of a random question, if I place an order now on your site, do I pay now or when the GB is concluded? Sorry to be asking here but I'm guessing the GB thread hasn't been approved yet!
Pay right after placing order
You some time to pay ( I think 24 hours) before it auto cancels if you don't pay.
You can talk to bunny about payment of you can't pay until sometime after the buy ends.
Otherwise, just place an order when you can pay :)

yeah gonna do something slightly different with them, every current order for them will stand, amd there will be an opportunity for them later for anyone who didnt order
