IT'S HERE - Cherry Replica Set GB (DONE!)

[Thechemist]

In for the Base set, if Mods become available in polycarbonate than i will be in for those too. The imperfection under the legends is what gives it that kewl look imo.

[i3oilermaker]

This was the Lily ISO

[SpAmRaY]

Big question:

Win 8 Winkey or Win 7 Winkey?

Poll time?

[hashbaz]

TBH the Win8 style is growing on me.

[Signature]

Can we haz white mods aswell?

Incoming firestorm in (checks watch)....

[Thechemist]

Is the GH key going to be orange with white legend or white with poly legend

[Glod]

damn, the font does look better, too bad you couldn't also get SCOOPS, i still like it though

[i3oilermaker]

Is the GH key going to be orange with white legend or white with poly legend

White on Orange to match the Esc Key

[danielucf]

Order placed. Can you auction off the poly mods to donate to geekhack? 

Or just sell them to me

[hashbaz]

I've actually considered it.  But the set is not complete (missing some of the nav cluster and tenkey).

[TheFlyingRaccoon]

I've actually considered it.  But the set is not complete (missing some of the nav cluster and tenkey).

Would it work on a 60% though? I'll start the bidding at $50. 

[hashbaz]

I believe it is also missing a second Win key.

[jdcarpe]

In for a set. I would also be interested in the matching Orange polycarb on White ABS mods for this. To me, it would just look so much better than having the polycarb legends for the alphanums, and solid ABS legends for the mods.

[oluf]

Any chance of a NON-microsoft super key? Or blank maybe?

Big question:

Win 8 Winkey or Win 7 Winkey?

[Toad1677]

Just order. This set looks amazing can't wait to get it.   

[Puddsy]

Probably gonna order soon. Love this set.

[MOZ]

Two things:

1. Shouldn't this set be called, "Nathan's set"?

2. If it is infact "Nathan's Set", I would like to propose the below addon kit for SmallFry KB, the use of the FnF logo depends on inlikeflynn's discretion I think.

[LechnerDE]

The ISO short left shift already exists.  1x backslash can be paid for easily enough, and SP can't do ISO Enter legends at all right?  What else is there in an ISO kit?

Well, the Klaxon ISO Enter key had a legend. It may not have been in the perfect place, but a legend at all is better than none



For ISO you need these 3 keys plus the enter key:



But keep in mind that there are different ISO versions. Above are the German legends. Other ISO boards have different legends for the alphas. To me it actually doesn't matter which legends are on the keys as long as there is anything on it.

Blank ISO keys would be a dealbreaker for me, because it just looks odd. Imagine an ANSI board with proper legends except for one key. This key will always stand out and look weird.

So please consider offering proper ISO legends on all keys 

[CommonCurt]

Big question:

Win 8 Winkey or Win 7 Winkey?

Windows 7 please.

[rowdy]

Ordered!

Plus I noticed on the order form under "Numpad" it says "How many 17 key Modifier Sets do you want?"

Thanks.

[GeeNDL82]

lol, why mock up and sample have different color

[skuko]

ordering when i get home from work, YAY!

[vorn]

Order placed! Excited! 

[placebo guy]

Order sent.  Lovin' it.

[i3oilermaker]

I think the Pics Hashbaz took have a redish hue...See http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=45743.msg960375#msg960375

Yes, if there is any way possible to get this add-on set (like a tsangan kit, etc), we really need this for the upcoming 40% SmallFry keyboard. 7bit even included the layout in his Round 5 "Honey" group buy on Deskthority.

[Krogenar]

ON is the ABS Orange Code.

Which white are we using?

Also, what are we going to call this? Is it "Nathan's Set"? I think that would be pretty cool.

[i3oilermaker]

WFK is the white.

Maybe Hashbaz can chime in, but that "smallfry" set may require a handfull of new legends.

[jdcarpe]

The 1.75 and 1.25 Shifts you should be doing already, for the tsangan and ISO kits, respectively, right? Row 2 GH (Esc) key and Backspace arrow, and Row 3 1.25 Tab and 1.75 Enter should be the only 4 new legends required, right? How much are we talking for those? I can probably raise the money for them, if needed.

[stoic-lemon]

I'd be much more inclined to jump in on this if caps for the SmallFry board are included. I may even chip in for legends depending on how much we are talking.

[codyeatworld]

ISO keys cherry rep double shot too?

Yes, these are all doubleshot.

Hash correct me if I am wrong, but we did not create ISO specific legends.  I believe these sets will be blank.

I was thinking these had the cherry ISO legends. If I ordered an ISO kit you can remove it. :/

Removed - Please PM all future order changes to be sure they are addressed

[bazh]

the mod saved my wallet...

[sicaine]

Why is internation shipping only 13$ instead of the 26$ as in the other gbs?

Is there any chance of no windows symbol on the 'mod key'? : (

$13 is about what it costs to to ship a small box USPS First class.

If this GB is popular enough, I might be able to sneak some extra keys in, but these prices are just cost.

Just eyeballing this thing, looks like it has a short Tab, short left Shift, even shorter right Shift, short Enter, and short Backspace.

The right Shift looks like the standard ISO left Shift (though note that it just has the arrow without "Shift").  The Fn key exists from the tsangan kit GB I did last year.  I believe the Cherry replica "geek hack" key exists as well.

So we would need to pay for the left Shift, Tab, Backspace, and Enter keys?  i3oiler correct me if I'm wrong but 1x legends can be placed on any profile key at no extra charge right?

[i3oilermaker]

I'm not sure - we would need to check with Mel

[danielucf]

I would think a right 1.75x shift would also function on the left side, unless there are more stems on it or something weird. I thought some of the Cherry replica RGB sets had 1.75x shift so the legend should already be good.

[hashbaz]

Ah yes Dan is right.  If that short left Shift is a 1.75 then it should be covered already.

[jdcarpe]

Yes, it's 1.75. The only keycap sizes used for it are 1.00, 1.25, 1.75, and a 6.25 spacebar.

[Infallible]

I'd be in for a set if the orange poly on white mods were confirmed for a later groupbuy.

[gh_pp]

This is a Group Buy for the GeekHack Cherry Legend Set

Hi, what is the thickness of the caps?
If there is a picture of it that'll be great, thanks!

[metalliqaz]

there is a picture in the OP.  They are standard SP DCS profile.  We would call them "thin" compared to other keys such as "thick" PBT or SA profile.

[jinhan108]

Just put in my order. Looks good!

thanks for the reply. good to know.

i didn't say explicitly but i was asking a picture of the back side of the cap so i can gauge the thickness.

[strafe]

+1.

Also, does this set include a stepped center stemmed caps lock?

See any picture of any DCS SP keycap.

Wrong link?
Or there is a keycap pic in one of the pages among the Dieting, Gym, and Training thread?
