First of all, I'm sorry about the plastic. Because of some special circumstances, we have to make part of kit again, because sometimes we have to choose between quality and time.But the good news is that the quality problem has been solved, and it's only a matter of time.
Earlier, I was invited by Hammerworks to do a new design for CRP.As we all know, CRP is a very good heat sublimation keycap.I really like its retro style, so I finally got inspiration from C64.The brand new font, as well as the logo of C64, is revived on CRP by using side engraving and color!
In addition, this package also includes the bbox60 case designed by me,Bbox60 is an open project. I believe many people have seen it in other series. I designed it because I hope to have such a case, which is interesting, fun, affordable and stable.
The following exploded view is updated, and the mold is currently being produced. The supported PCB includes all standard gh60 and gk-xs series.
There are screws in the package, which will be used to fix the positioning plate, while the assembly of the shell does not need screws.
In addition, hidden gate will be used, but may be seen on the supports.
PS: The stickers on the pictures are free of charge.
There are also two color mats(90*40) in the set meal. I will try my best to listen to all suggestions on keycaps. At present, group purchase is planned to start in September.
Thank you!!!

Well, I know that the color is not the original C64. First of all, it is because of the use of one-sided sublimation. In addition, I hope it is a re-creation rather than a copy. Hope you will like it after seeing the real sample.

- Modifier R1 1u pipe key does not have the same side print like the pipe key in the TKL kit, can we have that as well?
- Mac modifiers kit does not have control key "^", can we have those to be more standard?

I'd be super cool if that could bleed over into the Mac set also (though I understand that set is probably of limited appeal). Something like the open apple legend on the Apple II/Early Mac with a pseudo 4 color rainbow effect using the existing set colors.

These kits could use some work. Please take a look at KAT Refined (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=106725.0) and KAT Monochrome (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=106802.0) for examples of what a more approachable kit breakdown looks like. For example, the current split between the TKL and Modifier kits isn't very friendly to the majority of users.I don't see a big issue, will just need to purchase both kits. This is much better kitting than other CRP sets.

I agree with others there should be an option for no icons on the mods and the mods should be in all caps.Okay, I will seriously consider how to allocate this demand.

Thanks! BTW I feel like the colors are a bit off. Maybe its a regional thing? I think my 64 has darker keys with white/offwhite legends.Keys on the C64 came in multiple revisions throughout the years. This keyset is a mix, using a font inspired by early C64s but colour scheme and legend placement more inspired by the later C64C.
No legend is a perfect match to any original C64. On the original keyboards, only function keys have lower-case legends. And some examples of the C64 used the same keyboards as VIC-20's with a wide font reminiscent of Microgramma. (Then there's the SX-64 which is different altogether)
I like it! But I think that because the key set is so different from any actual C64, calling is "C64" would be misleading. It should have a new name.

May I ask if the beige matches previous CRP sets? I am a huge fan of CRP and this seems like a chance to upgrade my sets with the split spacebar kit (in addition to getting this set) :p
It's not the same, this is another kind of retro, ... also my original intention for the design.

What's wrong with Drop? I've ordered 1,000, give or take, worth or product just this year from them, and never had an issue. Yes, there were problems during the outbreak of Covid-19, but considering that they operate off one of smallest staffs in the official capacity, it's hard to blame them for lost packages when people neglected to stay on top of their complaint forms or don't inform them that have moved until after they have moved. I've had nothing but wonderful costumer service out of them.

I don't need to tell anyone how into this I am but damn the kitting sucks!
It’s more helpful if you express why the kitting sucks

Would recommend a second "B" for split/ergonomic layouts
Agree with this, would be good to put this (two different Bs) into the space kit

Very nice retro feels. Had a C64 too when i was a kid (the bread box, with dark keycaps). Makes a good excuse to grab a CRP set, never tried one before.
Thanks for your support！

(this would mean additional rows for F3-F10)

Would you consider adding a vertical F-row, which would emulate the layout of C64 and fit on boards like J-01 ?
(this would mean additional rows for F3-F10)
+1 for that.

Considering all the quality control issues with other key set manufacturers as of late, this has the potential to be one of the best key sets this year! great work! However is too much to ask for a standard base kit, ( ie alpha's and mods together at least)?Because of the particularity of the alpha area, I still think it is better to separate, but TKL will be adjusted, please pay attention to my updates.

This set on the newly announced U80-A in soya (off-white) would be a thing of beauty.
That is a neat idea if only RAMA would consider making an ISO board for once.

Will there be an Australian vendor? Dailyclack has run CRP sets multiple times now, I'd think they'd be a great choice.There must be.
Post by: BUGERWORK on Wed, 16 September 2020, 09:30:16
Any possibility for a 40's kit? Love the theme on this.
Sorry, I can't do it, I have communicated with the factory.

I even appreciate that it's a completely dissimilar profile than the original C64 keycaps.
What I don't understand is the kitting. I'm not familiar with how CRP MOQ works so I can't really give any suggestions as to how to improve it without understanding the goal, myself.
2 sets of Alphas separate from a TKL kit seems fine I suppose. It's a good way to cover a popular format.
The Modifiers + TKL kit together is where I get confused. It seems like there's a ton of overlap and you're going to double up on a lot of keys just to get support for a 65% or non-standard 60% / HHKB / Tsangan layout. Meanwhile, there's an entirely separate kit of MAC mods?
Again I don't know anything about CRP MOQ so I don't really know how to better kit this offhand especially since I don't know how you are trying to achieve this or what the limitations are, so sorry I can't be more helpful at the moment.
Also, no 40's it makes me sad, but I'm glad to see a 2u and 1.75u in the modifiers kit at least.

I don't know about CRP/Hammer kitting details, but it appears to me that the Modifiers kits is essentially what is included in a typical GMK base kit outside of this set's TKL kit.
I'm guessing the idea is that standard TKL/75%/60% users can get away with TKL + Alphas, which should be at a lower price point than a comparable GMK-equivalent CRP kit. Not entirely sure though; the CRP sets I've been able to find prices for don't have comparable kitting.

Any idea when this will drop on Drop? I’ve been holding off on several other drops on Drop waiting for this to drop. I hope this drops on Drop soon so I can join the drop.

Looks like the GB date is 11/11/2020, and the new GB post is up: https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=109469.0
really great communication from the maker secretly announcing the GB. This GB will suffer from a great deal of lack of communication just like the last GB they did
Post by: GeekLevelAsian on Mon, 09 November 2020, 18:52:05
Only Monstargear it says it will be compatible with the DZ60, which would be awesome.
Can't wait to pick this up.
