Beige alpha's and dark grey mods.

Nice board! Is it a full acrylic case?

Thanks 

And yes, it's a milled acrylic case made by Tex.  I got it from Massdrop, but I believe you can order it straight from Tex.  You just have to contact them and ask for a pricing quote.  I took a couple more pictures of the case itself which you can see in this album

[Shadovved]

I currently have 10 sets of GHOST WHITE PBTs.

Due to circumstances from distributor side (enjoypbt) and manufacturer (Gateron), GB price will be $40/set with normal airmail.

However, for this 10 sets, I will upgrade it to registered shipping for free.

First 10 people to post interest here gets it for $40/set shipped via registered

One claimed. 9 to go.

How did I miss this... I'll grab a set

You have been PMed.

8 sets of ghostwhites up for grabs

Really cool pictures! So clean. You made me reconsider my stand on acrylic cases.

[cwils0n]

Thanks!  I was a bit hesitant because I was afraid that it would end up looking "cheap", but seeing and handling it person I can say that it's high quality.

Lastpilot's NerD Crystal is one of my favorite builds and I contemplated going a similar route with the Tex acrylic case and SPRiT's acrylic plate, but ended up getting a LeandreN plate and these wonderful Gateron keycaps.

Received the caps last Saturday ! Thanks Shadovved

I dremel'd the spacebar for my Novatouch and here goes :


Thanks again !

[Shadovved]

Extra's still available. Please take everything before I complete my Ghost White GB hopefully......

[trenzafeeds]

When it says white alphas in the OP, does it mean Milk or Ghost?

In this GB form, it's the normal white.

The ghost white promotion is if you specifically ask for one in the thread here, and I'll PM you about that separately.

Thanks for the set Shadovved, mine's nearly perfect (just have one R2 key that should be R3).

I just received my set today but I have to leave until the end of the week. I didn't have the time to check everything. Will I be able to report missing keys if any? Do we have to report color mismatch as well? It seems I had more beige than needed and not enough light grey on my light/beige combo set however I'm not sure about it as I have not checked everything.

Best to perform one run through with a keycap checkmat, because I will have to get from Gateron in batches...they cant be sending me a few keycaps every other day and the shipping will hurt.

So expect a longer wait if you submit after this weekend at least.

[Shadovved]

I still has these extras, PLEASE BUY EM

Fair enough. I'll try to do a checkup on Sunday.

[fatcupcakes]

I would like to get a Biege/Light Grey set if there are any extras! I sent an order form, but I also pm'ed you my paypal for an invoice!

[zarrx]

Update on missing keys?

Filled out the form twice, hope that hasn't messed things up.

I dremel'd the spacebar for my Novatouch and here goes :

Care to elaborate on this requirement please? I have a set in transit destined for a Novatouch, interested to know what needs to be done.
Thanks!

Shadovved, for those of us that ordered late in the game and still waiting on the caps, are we going to be able to report missing/extras?

[totallymonkey]

Thanks for the group buy!  Here is the set on my Planck!

[ithcy]

I'd like a ghost white set!

[Gurkanical]

Is it too late to get extras? I was recommended by the folks over at MechKB via Reddit. I sent in an order of Biege Alphas and Dark Grey Mods. I think I accidentally sent in two however.. Anyways, was just wondering if a whole set is still available.

Yeap you guys will get your missing/extras. I will only close the collation form formally after all PBT blank sets are sold.

[KHAANNN]

Hey Shadovved,

Is there a rough ETA for the missing keycaps form keycaps? :) (like 1 weeks, 2 weeks, 1 months, 3 months etc.)

Dying to get some blanks

Probably take 1 month to me posting out...hopefully less, all depends on Gateron.

[KHAANNN]

Sounds good, thanks for the update

Do you have the info you wanted regarding the novatouch? I don't know how to make the spacebar sit on my novatouch atm.


If any of you have more info on sitting the spacebar on a novatouch that'd be really nice if you could share your wisdom with me.


Btw Shadovved, I checked and it seems I have everything. Thank you for the GB. I like the keys a lot. Looks like a white HHKB, love it.

[hoz]

dark grey + light grey sure do fit the winkeyless hhkbish case in all matte black acrylic

Nice indeed. I just put mine on my daily driver. I should try to make some shots in the week as well so I can show it off. :D

[KHAANNN]

All my PBT keycaps have stem marks, DSA PBT's, Vortex PBT's, probably from the thermal properties of the PBT

It's less visible on Vortex's, yet they are visible on close inspection

These keycaps seem better molded / free from that issue, is this the case?

[nephiel]

I see no stem marks at all on mine.

No not yet, i just received my caps (Thanks Shadovved, hyped to put them on) so ill be messing around with the space and will definitely post back when i work it out

Edit: So i actually just looked and you will need to carve off some plastic on the outside edge of the two stems that are joined together to clear the mount. Ascii diagram, grind where red:


[  (+) (+ +)              (+)              (+ +) (+)  ]


I'll give it a go in the next couple days and will post pics. Luckily I ordered two sets so will practice on my least favourite

Can anyone hint at the best way to audit the caps? I was looking for a print out map but my googlefu is failing

I did it yesterday. Indeed you need to carve out the line of plastic that join the stem together but you need to remove the stem that are joined together on the edge because they hit the plate and you cannot insert the outer stem.

To check the keys, I just used the pictures in the OP personally.

[MichaelBluth]

for anyone else that's planning on installing on a novatouch, here's a quick potato i took last night, before and after

[fishcola]

Received my set in the mail today, and I couldn't be more satisfied. Thanks for the extra set Shadovved!

[radio_killah]

Any estimates on when replacement keys will go out?

[Shadovved]

Any estimates on when replacement keys will go out?

They should reach me by the end of the month hopefully...

I can't wait until i can use my grey set! 

hopefully it was only a few with missing keys

Also this is my first set with light keys and my beige are already dirty

[LechnerDE]

I got my Ghost White set today!

Unfortunately two Row 3 keys are missing I got an extra Row 2 and three extra Row 1 keys though. I tripple checked whether I made a mistake sorting the keys, but everything is correct.



Shadovved, do you  have 2 extra Ghost keys that you could send me?

[lolpes]

Still waiting for my set to come, been almost 2 months since it shipped (July 28)

Oh shucks....I'll have you fill out the form for missing keys, maybe I'll get your replacements when I do the ghost white GB :thumb:

There is no option for the Ghost White PBTs 

[potatowire]

There are many NovaTouchs, but this one is mine. I love it.



I'm missing a few keys in some of the colors and will fill out the form. Thank you for the GB, Shadovved!
