[IC] GMK Stonks

GMK Stonks



Interest Check Form



Inspiration

The inspiration for this set comes from the current iteration of the Bloomberg Terminal Keyboard, the Starboard.
Intended to bring the terminal's interface up to modern standards, the Starboard combined the classic color-coded keys of the financial world with the form factor that users were accustomed to at home.
If it reminds you of GMK White on Black but with accents, front print, and new numpad legends, that's because it's GMK White on Black with accents, front print, and new numpad legends.





Kit Breakdown

I own a Bloomberg keyboard and would be willing to help you do some color-matching.  You might not want custom colors for everything, but there are a few of those that aren't great matches for the GMK stock colors.

AWESOME SET. I was thinking about this after looking at 9009 a long time ago. I really think you should just make this an accent kit though. This will probably be sold for say 130-140$. When you could make this an accent kit to pair with wob and it really wouldn't cost much more plus people would get wob at the same time.

Add me in to the accent kit camp.

I like it and it looks good, but I really think it would do better as a standalone accent kit. WoB is regularly available on it's own, and at a much better price than this full kit would be. making this a smaller accent kit would make it far more enticing price wise.

I'd be far more willing to buy it as an accent kit. as it stands, even though I really like it, I wouldn't buy it as a full set. but if it were an accent kit, I'd be in 100%.

GMK kinda cooked rn... would this be possible to do with a PBT vendor? Love the concept, and like other's would be hesitant of using Bloomberg.... maybe use some derivative of Terminal.

WoB has sold…nearly 10K base kits? across Drop and the variants w sublegends/icons/micons.

Make an accent kit and you leverage existing sets. Make this a base kit and you compete w Drop who sold WoB base at 100$ in stock late last year and you’ll lose on price, compatibility, and turnaround since Drop’s getting their GMK sets months ahead of other vendors rn.

Some legal advisors might still consider that too close considering the product. In any case, I'm sure the vendors and GMK will bring up the subject.

Is this based on a Wey keyboard layout?  I have the original set from a Wey board.  It is similar but you are missing lots of additional accents.

Everyone and their mom has a WoB set, would really make more sense to run this as an accent kit imho since the price will be easier to digest for everyone.

Also, colors in your set look 100x than whatever kit mito is trying to make - hope this runs!

I have been following Mito's IC for GMK Trader and it looks like his IC is at least a month older than yours, May 5th by mito and June 3rd by you...



We have several terminals in the office and and my colleagues are hype, I'm pretty sure I filled his form and made a couple suggestions after discovering it on Instagram







As a financial advisor (and owner of WOB) I am thrilled for the chance of owning GMK Trader and a replica of Bloomberg keys but this is not an original idea by any means. Most likely an unfortunate coincidence of having two similar ideas. Mito seems to be actively working on the set of keys based on input people provided on IG and Discord for the novelties (crypto vs traditional) for longer than you

Mito seems to be actively working on the set of keys based on input people provided on IG and Discord for the novelties (crypto vs traditional) for longer than you




Even if he started working on this earlier than early February, it doesn't change the fact that he changed his legends to front print after my IC, which you can see on IG.

I'm sure at least one person asked about front prints on his design GMK Trader because I did (I wasn't aware about your IC until today while looking for Swiss), so I'm not surprised his design evolved based on feedback. There is also other people on his Discord channel asking for Bloomberg references and offering help.

Not here to accuse anyone so no need to get defensive, all I am saying is that this is not an original idea to begin with as you are both replicating the Bloomberg terminal in one way or the other. Maybe you can reach out and make both coexist because I like Trader and I'm sure I'm not alone, it doesn't need to be one or the other

I think the best outcome for you is to offer this as an accent kit, as many people have already requested. MiTo is...well...MiTo. He has a lot of reach with Drop and therefore a significant advantage with pricing. If you go head-to-head against him with a traditional base kit, it's probably not going to end well for you. On his Discord, he's listed the price of his base kit at $120. That's got to be a very high MOQ to achieve that price for a complete base kit with numpad. Offer this as a cheaper accent kit and you'll have a more compelling reason for people to buy.

I have no idea if MiTo saw this IC or not, but there's a high likelihood you just came to a similar conclusion from different routes.  Recreating a vintage / commercial colorway in MX form always comes with that risk.

Approximately a week two weeks before this IC was posted, I was also starting to develop a Bloomberg-themed keyset.  I had bought a Bloomberg keyboard specifically for that purpose in order to do color-matching.

I won't add a third competitor to this race, but an offer to provide more accurate color standards for the keys stands for both you and MiTo.  I am happy to help you both find RAL or Pantones that are closer to the actual keys (from at least one of the Bloomberg models, as there are probably differences from board to board).

The GMK stock colors just aren't good matches for some of these.

I have been following Mito's IC for GMK Trader and it looks like his IC is at least a month older than yours, May 5th by mito and June 3rd by you...

We have several terminals in the office and and my colleagues are hype, I'm pretty sure I filled his form and made a couple suggestions after discovering it on Instagram

Guaranteed MiTo won't have the good grace or self awareness to not go ahead with his set. It's not like pancake has the rights to a terminal inspired colourway, but it's unfair of MiTo to run it at the same time.

I don't know about that. That set is...how should I put this nicely...uninspiring. The base kit color scheme is just wrong, for example.

I would definitely prefer this set, especially if pancake does an accent kit.

Accent kit will cost $45 on trader and one can also get gmk wob for $110 right now with insane coverage, to be delivered in september.

Some tasteless slander going on here I thought it was supposed to be an ic or is gh toxic like this? The argument is pathetic as if OP created proprietary work, he just copied wob, the Bloomberg keys and made a render, you're all parroting as if nobody else could do the same. How about him copying gmk wob which is already for sale and made by drop? And the 1:1 Bloomberg Starboard, did he get approval from someone on Bloomberg in the first place? Keys related to economy exist and were made by different people (i own gmk 9009 from mykeyboard.eu and also the epbt version which comes from cherry G80 9009 from Reuters which I also have). What a toxic thread

This set looks great.
I have a few sets of Bloomberg keys which I've salvaged off old Mighter and Wey trader keyboards, but it would be great to get a set of non-SA-profile Bloomberg function keys.

One thing - before they went super-customized with their keyboards, Bloomberg did a standard 104 key keyboard, and you can choose to use its mappings from the terminal.
This 1994 keyboard used shift+tenkey-zero as its 'Panel' key, so it would be great to have that key for this set too (since switching Panels is a really common action):-

If I may offer a different perspective: the set running on Drop is, well, already running. While Stonks is in IC. GMK lead times being what they are, if you want to get your keycaps as soon as possible (and cheap at that) MiTo's set is the sensible choice here. I feel sorry for OP investing time and energy and money into this project only to be undercut by a different designer but that's the way it is.

I don't personally care for MiTo but to reiterate this set is not a deeply personal lightning strike of inspiration but rather a safe, tried-and-tested design, and as such was up for grabs. MiTo has sway so they got there first, simple as that.

On a sidenote, this entire discussion is weirdly apropos the set's theme.
