Beautiful set
-
Everything including the artisans are so good. I will be in for all the sets except for NordeUK.
-
Thank you so much for including core 40s support. in the base kit. This is exactly what we want to see in the 40s crowd, just those 3 keys will give us coverage for like 95% or more of popular 40s boards.
Row 2: 1.75u; Row 3: 1.5u; Row 3: 1.25u
Other designers: please take note! We don't need 50 different keys with every possible combination of legends to support every variety of Planck layout and every permutation of accents. We know these kits don't sell! 3 extra keys in a base kit that already supports ISO will make us very happy.
Amazing set, you have no idea how stoked I am to see such a nice colorway with good 40s support.

many designers are encouraging other designers to take this step! we hate burdening vendors with buying out 40s kits (or even worse having them miss moq). we will see what the long term move is. i'm pretty new into 40s, but with boards like the whimsy gaining popularity, maybe more keys will be required long term.

in. Should I buy 2 of those novelties? what other keysets have CP alphas?
-
Man this whole set gives me good vibes! Gonna have to make sure I go all in on this one! I love the complete aesthetic.
-
in. Should I buy 2 of those novelties? what other keysets have CP alphas?
CP is pretty close to WS1. Im sure any set with ws1 legends would look absolutely fine
-
Lets gooooo!!!
-
in. Should I buy 2 of those novelties? what other keysets have CP alphas?
To be pedantic-Honeywell, hagoromo oblivion, Olivia, Yuru. Maybe camping? I agree with the others; Im not sure I could pick out the white being different if it sat on minimal (WS1 white) without really staring at it in person.

Fyi, the link to the IC actually goes to the GMK Maestro GB thread.

Monokei listed only one variant of deskmat, is this deliberate?

In GMK Maestro the F13 key was included in the base kit. Is the inclusion of the relegendables kit the reason why GMK Foundation lacks an F13?

A part of it, yes. Using a relegendable for F13 spot will look nice!

Why cancel so early in the GB? This is running to August 1st.

Why cancel so early in the GB? This is running to August 1st.
Due to its' low sales (only 3 pcs sold, 1pc each from three vendors out of eight vendors), we (including lead vendor, and the artist himself (1stGarden)) have decided to cancel it as early as possible.
The first deskmat is halfway MoQ already (IIRC it's 15/30),
and the second (artist deskmat) already past MoQ (IIRC it's 43/30).
Again, I truly apologise for this decision.

what metal is the rama cap made of? Aluminum? Brass?

Alu. If it was brass that's a steal for the price.

Cool, that's what I figured but did not see it mentioned ANYWHERE, which prevented me from pulling the trigger. Do you know where it was mentioned? Or are we just guessing based on price?

This decision was made in September (last month) by us, sorry for announcing this quite late:
Metal Artisan is made by HIBI instead. The design and specification remain the same, and here goes the renders:

This decision was made in September (last month) by us, sorry for announcing this quite late:
Metal Artisan is made by HIBI instead. The design and specification remain the same, and here goes the renders:
The Metal Artisan made by HIBI is finished production and will be delivered to Cannonkeys. Apparently all other vendors are still going to wait for the metal artisan, made by RAMA, which hasn't update us yet or anything.
So, TLDR: Hibi made metal artisan only for Cannonkeys order,
while other vendors are still by RAMA.
I apologize for this lack of information previously as I have just learned about this recently.

Any chance of us seeing an R2 or at least a KKB version? Would love to see this in ABS instead of PBT+ABS.
