[IC] Alps DCS Alpine Winter 65% Add-on Kit w/ Arrow Keys

[MandrewDavis]

Hello everyone,

I recently reached out to njbair for his endorsement on running a small GB for in order to fill out a 65% keyboard with Alps mount DCS Alpine Winter. Skully sold a small run with extended compatibility for the clueboard, but even that did not have a blue R3 key for a proper layout.

LFK Keyboards has a 65% Alps PCB which supports the Cherry PCB mount stabilizers and is compatible with RS68 and Tada68 cases.

This is what will be included in the kit:
Qty of 1 R1 BGA Blank
Qty of 1 R2 BGA Blank
Qty of 1 R3 BGA Blank
Qty of 1 R4 BGA (GTL legends) Up Arrow Key
Qty of 1 R4 BGA (GTL legends) Down Arrow Key
Qty of 1 R4 BGA (GTL legends) Left Arrow Key
Qty of 1 R4 BGA (GTL legends) Right Arrow Key


KLE link

I chose blanks to keep costs down and the arrow key legends will be the same as those used on DCS midnight.
Shipping and Paypal fees will right around $5 for users in the US and $16 for Europe.
Hopefully this will not cost me too much out of pocket.

Pricing:
25 sets      $12.62 per set
50 sets      $7.52 per set
75 sets      $5.82 per set
100 sets    $4.97 per set
150 sets    $4.13 per set
200 sets    $3.70 per set
250 sets    $3.45 per set

Oh, this is neat. I wish Alpine Winter ran again altogether.

I’d definitely be in for a kit or two. Any chance of being able to add a function row blanks kit? Would love to use these with a tkl at some point. Will be in regardless.

Interested!

Interested

I'd be into it if the entire set gets ran again.

Think you're looking at a small amount of people who have their set still.

[dario]

I'm interested in case whole Alpine set gets another run.

[MandrewDavis]

I was hoping for at least 15 kits and I would buy out the rest but it's not looking like there is sufficient interest.

might have to run the full set to get enough interest.

Yes, I would love to join if it's a full set either. Always want Alpine winter for HHKB layout, but either it's hard to get or were available when i were broke . I fortunate enough to have a DSA granite Alps though, even though i not a really fan of DSA.

[Vizir]

In for full set

[MandrewDavis]

Sorry everyone, it has been a long time since it originally ran but I'm not interested in being the person to re-run it. I'm just not that invested in the colorway and wanted an easy 65% Alps keyboard.

Interested in the whole DCS Alpine Winter set plus extension.

[waldorf120]

Necrobump - I am interested in some arrow keys, blanks, or really anything Alpine Winter related.
