Aren't you aware that most OG Cherry beige sets match these keys in color and font of the legends?


I'm not. I have a very limited knowledge of vintage boards and caps. How hard would it to be find OG Cherry beige and are they double-shot or dye-sub?
Many OG Cherry are double shots. A few are dyed but these are expensive.

Thanks. I'm still wondering how easy it would be find OG Cherry Beige alphas though.

To answer your question, OG Cherry doubleshots (normally in full-size 101-key or 1800-style layouts) are regularly sold on Ebay, and mm. And on websites such as ElecShopper (run by elecplus). There's a lot of Cherry G80 or G81 models with beige doubleshots.

Thanks for the help. Those all look like viable options.

Not precisely, but you can most certainly expect this kit to open for group-buy in a couple of weeks.

Proxies, pricing, and updated renders will be posted shortly (within a few days).

Hello everyone,

New renders have been posted to the OP. Much thanks to Janglad for his help! Check them out and let me know if you like it :thumb: I changed the sublegends on the Q to include the : (colon) tertiary legend to be consistent with the Greek layout.

This will be the finalized kit for group-buy. Pricing and proxies' information will be posted in the coming days.

Kit Design



This is an alphas-only kit..

Please note that the FJ barred show overlap between the bar and the sublegend. This is 100% intentional and we will be making sure that GMK produces these keys correctly, so that this does not happen.

To think that I'd be able to have the support off someone who (1) quit (2) whom I respect. Thanks!

Thanks, man =) Arabic and Hebrew are in my sights. They'll take a lot more planning.

Hello everybody!

Very exciting update to share with you all.

First of all, I have confirmed that the open date for the GB for Greek Beige Add-on will be on October 15, 2019 and last for 1 month.

Second, we have an update on vendors and pricing. Those will be:

 Novelkeys (North America):            $30
 MyKeyboard.EU (Europe):               30€
 zFrontier (China/Asia):                   ¥230 / $35
 IlumKB (Singapore/Asia):               45 SGD
 DailyClack (Australia):                     49 AUD


I hope you are all as excited as I am about this!


And if you were wondering, I am working on some new things to come after Greek Beige is produced. Fingers crossed!

Great to see the formalities arranged and publicised ahead of the GB post. Information makes me happy. As does beige.

Wow I'm boring.
