Any info on how long the cables are?
Can we get them to build the Alps ten feet higher and get Cherry to pay for it?

Definitely this. I would love a 7ft cable.

And I have just realised the connector on my would be connect-ee is different to your standard Mini-USB, would it be possible to get one with a connector to fit a WASD V2?

There are plenty of people you can order a custom cable from, to keep prices down we have to keep this uniform and simple

Welcome to Geekhack!

You're in good hand with BunnyLake for your first group buy :)
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

we are looking at altering the mods at the moment, either to cherry lettered ones or to what the OG raindrop was

Just to express my preference, I think these legends from i3oilermaker's Cherry Replice GB would look best for this set:




Speaking of legends, which legends did you choose for your Nostalgia GB? I mean you switched to Cherry legends last minute, but you never revealed how the final set will look like. Or did I miss something?

This would look great also. Just please use the old school WIN keys instead of the windows 8 logo.

imo if you are going for minimalistic don't use big cherry font. if you're going to use big font then make it 100% cherry, follow the format cherry does their caps ie capslock on capslock and whatever style windows key they use

Yeah personally I love the new Windows 8 logo, get with the times people!
It's a good width!  If it's half-width it's too narrow, and full-width is too wide.

if you can 100% assure me that the DCS profile stabbed keys will not grind on the costar stab wires on a filco, i'm in :)

also
the deluxe edition comes with a full tenkeyless set, in a nice cap box, with matching inserts, hand packed and with a nice little surprise, i have some of the boxes on hand as i got some prototypes, and i will get some nice pics up either late tonight or friday for everyone as i have family visiting

do i understand this right when i think that this will save me the hustle of "plastic bag modding" the stabbed keys?

This will be the first 'lowest' amount you will ever buy for any type of key-set.  Maybe this time next year, when the amount climbs on average to around $600 or $700USD, you shall feel the pain of Geekhack  :thumb: .

bunny, the winkey, is the windows logo the classic type or win8 type?

also, is there 1x 0 and 00 for numpad?

is the caps lock the padlock logo or just a down arrow? @.@ i like the padlock logo!
just in case this got lost in the rain of comments here.

we are looking at altering the mods at the moment, either to cherry lettered ones or to what the OG raindrop was

yes the numpad will be complete sir, we are working on adding keys to the mockups at the moment, as for the windows logos, there will be alternate options, and "rain" and "drop" keys

i will add stuff as we go, there will certainly be more keys in kits no matter what levels we reach, and we will be adjusting the mockups over the next few days to a week, what you see is just the bare minimum right now, anything obvious thats missing is just an oversite, and there will be some niceties added also

Well ****, I was so close to talking myself out of this one but now I want it again! Steam Winter Sale starts tomorrow too - I really hope I can scrounge enough from the charred remains of my wallet to buy something... thank you so much for running the GB until Jan so I can at least agonize over it until then!  :p  :))

I'll have a mockup with this style shortly. But I'd love to hear more opinions on this!

(I'll also be creating new mockups for nostalgia later this week hopefully :D)

Thanks for replying!

I think it might be worth it to create a separate poll on the legends so you guys can figure out what to use for this and future GBs.

In my opinion you should settle for a certain style and keep it consistent for all the sets you run. Otherwise people will get confused and might be dissappointed if they get something they actually didn't want...

Personally I can live with any Windows logo.

I think what we need in the first place is a decision between pure symbols for the mods (as shown in the OP) or symbols + text (as shown in the above post).

I clearly am in favor of symbols + text!

Thanks for replying!

I think it might be worth it to create a separate poll on the legends so you guys can figure out what to use for this and future GBs.

In my opinion you should settle for a certain style and keep it consistent for all the sets you run. Otherwise people will get confused and might be dissappointed if they get something they actually didn't want...


Since R1 did not have text + symbol legends and the cherry replica did, I came up these based on the gmk purple modifiers and classic cherry sets.
We are not trying to change up the style, just make it authentic as possible and keep the look of R1.



edit: pic with right shift, symbol only. Down arrow symbol caps lock, symbol scroll lock.

this is correct, we wanna marry the aesthetic of round one whilst remaining true and authentic with cherry

we will make the decision that is right for the set, as with anything, there will be split opinions, but im sure the vast majority will be happy

As this is my first cap GB, can someone tell me if its normal to drop $162 on a full set of keys no duplicates?

What exactly did you order? And what keyboard are you trying to fill out?
