[IC] Doubleshot 87 Key Red on Black Keyset

[Ragnorock]

After much hinting, I figured I might as well throw up a real interest check for this.

Basically I like the look of the red on black contrast in the Terran doubleshot keycap so much that I want to do an entire keyboard to match it.

Will be basically standard legends except for the enter key I'm replacing the "Enter" with "Execute"

Placement in the top left "modern style" with the standard SP "Arial" font or w/e to save on costs.

It won't have as much contrast as white keys but everyone here should be pretty adept at touch typing so any complaints that they aren't as visible as white on black and black on white will be laughed at. Don't get me wrong though, they will be very readable- thats why I'm choosing the same Terran red instead of a darker one.

I'll have some artwork from SP soon enough, but its pretty easy to imagine. Black ABS keys that fit everything on your tenkeyless, with red doubleshot legends. Also for those looking to get all keys of the same profile as some of the ones bought from myself or other group buys, here is an excellent chance to get good looking keys that all have the same profile as the keys you have. For example, if you are buying just Nyancat, you won't have to deal with it being shorter than the Row 1/4 keys next to it.

Its not in Round 4, so I'm doing it myself instead of bothering 7bit with it. If he wants to include it then go for it man.

Here's a picture of the Terran keycap for reference. The red is darker than that as many will vouch for. The flash from my camera messed with all the colors but you get the idea. Too lazy to get my other pics.

Price List:
25 sets          $65.06 / set
50 sets          $47.74 / set
75 sets          $41.96 / set
100 sets        $39.07 / set

I'd like to do at least 50 sets.

[slueth]

how come your pricing is so cheap, oh thats for 100 sets.. nvm why so expensive!

[Amr0d]

I would buy a set when it comes to atleast 50 orders.

//edit

Can't buy because I forgot that its US layout only (need German)

[Nighted]

They can do side printed double shots?

[jpm804]

I'd be interested in a set for my cm storm...

[HWI]

I'd be interested in a set for my cm storm...

Same. I think it would look dope on a CM Storm.

[Ragnorock]

I'm honestly not sure whether they can do side printing or not, but that isn't what this is for.

Yeah they fit the Storm's color scheme perfectly. Would look sick.

Btw, if we're short of 50 by a reasonable margin, I will be covering the cost to get to 50 so that we all get the price break.

[RColinTaylor]

The magic number for the price break would be 37 sets, otherwise known as the bubble where the 50ct price becomes equal to the price of kits purchased at the 25ct price.

[Mike Rowe]

I'd be interested in a set

[peda]

I would like a set as well even though i am not too fond of the 'execute' on enter.

but meh, whatever the masses like more in this case. :peep:

[HWI]

I'd prefer enter over execute also, but I can settle for execute if that's what it takes to get a set of red on black keycaps.

Yes, they can do front printing.

In Round 3 the Terran key was RA red on NN black, BTW.

[NeverDie]

I'd be interested in a set if this gains momentum. If this can be done say around next month or two, then most probably I'd be in regardless of how many other people join the group buy.

[bavman]

I'd be in for a set at a good price, but can we get some thick sexy legends like those from cherry doubleshots?

[dorkvader]

Yes, they can do front printing.

In Round 3 the Terran key was RA red on NN black, BTW.

Front printed doubleshots! Why has nobody done this yet‽

I think this'd look excellent with the CMstorm, especially with how the red plate is visible, I'll watch this. Depending on timeframe, I'd be interested at the 50 set cost.

Maybe adding it to R4 is the best idea, though.

[WorldExclusive]

I'm interested. I've been waiting for a red on black DS set for a while.

[TheSoulhunter]

Finally! Red on black will look awesome, terminal/matrix green on black as well btw...
I'm in for 2 sets, if we hit 50 perhaps 3, also Id prefer a standard "enter" (but why cant we have both!?)

[feng]

I'll be interested in a set. They should look awesome on my filco.

[Jophess]

I'm interested.

[Ragnorock]

Ninja keycaps would be legit, but its not exactly what I had in mind for this. I have ninjas currently on my Leo if that says how much I like them. If anyone feels like contributing some pictures of anything similar, it would be appreciated.

I'll ask how much it is to get an extra enter key. If the cost isn't significant then we can throw that in too.

Geekhack Y U NO LIEK EXECUTE?

[TheSoulhunter]

How about "AFFIRMATIVE"?

[csm725]

Pm'd you, Ragno.

[DanGWanG]

Trying to jack my style?! ...  This style too.

I'm in for a set.  Hopefully it reaches at least 50!

[dorkvader]

How about "AFFIRMATIVE"?

"return" is always nice, and has appeared on keyboards in the past.

[WorldExclusive]

Need moar people.

[Ragnorock]

Alright, well I'm just going to make the order thread and leave it open till we get close enough to 50. If we don't, we just won't do it. I don't think anyone wants it at 25 sets.

[HWI]

Have you made that order thread yet? I didn't see it, but wasn't sure if I was just missing it. I really want some red on black double shots. If there was a possibility for side printed that would be even better, but if not I will take normal ones.

[Ragnorock]

Got busy with school and everything else on here, and then I had to travel the last couple of days... I'll get one up soon.

[jinhan108]

I'm definitely in for a set!

[HWI]

Sounds good.

[dimoniy]

Is there a way to get full-size set for this one? C'mon show numpad some love!

I'd like to do at least 50 sets.

I've counted 15 so far.

If you promise to take 10 (until they are sold, which will only take a week), I can add these to Round 4 with TKL, TENKLESS and maybe STANDARD kits.

If you are interested, I'll make a layout graphic including that Execute return key.

[NormaJean]

I am interested as well at the price quoted for 50 sets

[7bit]

[tsangan]

7 bit just wants those wants those 2175 keycaps to round4 :rofl:

[Ragnorock]

Eeeeh if I'm going to fund $715 worth of keycaps I'd rather run it myself... I mean with all of 9 days to collect all the orders and such its likely that I'd have to fund more than that to get them to 25.

1. I've counted 16 people who want the TKL (or TENKLESS) version of this!
2. We need only 25 instead of 50 to get a price around $50 and maybe less!
3. (25-16)*50 == 450 < 715.
4. #SPH>=50
5. Just give it a try. If it fails, you can still run this alone.
6. Who told you there will be only 9 days left?
7bit. If at all I will throw out some of the crap and when on the last day before I submit the order someone comes with an entirely new kit in a new style in an acceptable quantity, I will include it. Deadlines are for wimps!

[dimoniy]

7bit, could you do the 104-keys version of the thing?

[7bit]

Sure!

[tsangan]

I'm a wimp :pout:

[Tarkoon]

Need blood red on bright white - that's cool on black cases!

[hazeluff]

I'm interested, but the price of sets of keys always makes me cringe.

[jpm804]

I would be fine with both the 25 and 50 pricing rag has listed but not sure if anyone else... =(

[7bit]

Do you want

BLOOD/TKL
or
ROUGE/TKL
?

(or STANDARD, TERMINAL, TENKLESS).

Someone must decide which name it should have.

NOW!

[HWI]

blood

[7bit]

blood

OK!

Send a message to 7bit_R4 :

BLOOD/TKL
BLOOD/SPACE
your email address

... and all the other stuff is now available!

BLOOD/GAMER
BLOOD/GAMER/RED (reverse-video version; black on red)
...

[infamouskid]

interested.
in BLOOD/TKL & BLOOD/GAMER/RED


so are you final on that font set in the previous art pic?

Yes.

You can order now ...

[Ragnorock]

We're doing RA for the red right? Same as the Terran keys. Do I get my Execute key? ¬.¬

Like to be honest if you're just going to take this over without my consent you better be willing to at least do what I want with it. Many don't like dealing with the Round 4 ordering process including myself, and if I have you do it that means the keycaps get sent to Germany and back before I get them. In addition I don't get any control, say, or anything for that matter. All I end up doing is shelling out $450– $500+ including my order to get it run.

[Jophess]

My biggest concern with R4 is the absence of an estimated time frame. I'd really prefer not having to wait 6+ months if it's possible to do this GB separately.
