GMK 'Miami Nights' + CMYKv2 + spacebars: In Limbo/Unfulfillment

[swimmingbird]

Hmm massdrop has some CMYK GMK modifiers up https://www.massdrop.com/buy/gmk-modifier-keys

Maybe we can convince people on there to get some Nights to go along with their modifiers? Or is that a big nono?

Massdrop generally do their own thing
+ they usually want a cut so it ends up being more expensive

I think he meant as a small promotion through the discussions, anyway, I've shared a link to this set after I read that

Yep, this is what I meant. Some subtle hints dropped on that MD thread may push us over MOQ

Great,  now I've ordered one each of those,  as well! 

I have never had any GMK keysets,  and now have orders for 3 full sets,  and 4 modifiers. I hope they are as good as everyone says

After I tried gmk sets I've found three people selling gmk dolch and i bought all three... Over two weeks time

No wonder there is no Dolch GMK's in circulation, you bought all of them :)

It would be great if this Uniqey would at least sell some GMK blanks, I also came across 4-5 Dolch opportunities but passed them as I can't seem to fill my special keycap slots with something satisfying

I ended up getting both sets on this MD buy as well, I also posted a link to this thread in the discussion area. I'm just going to keep posting the link every couple of days until the buy is over.

Thanks for the advertising.
If nothing else, we are good to go on all spacebars. CMYKv2 is very close. Still need quite a few orders on the full set but we are making progress.

Does this also include Taobao orders?

On the last day of orders, if we haven't hit the MOQ would you be willing to update with specific numbers needed for any parts?

good point... if the full set doesn't make it I'm doubling up on the mod set.

[stillgray]

First timer here. I hope the full set order goes through.

[db268]

I only wanted one of those caps lock keys. If anyone is interested in selling one feel free to PM me 

[NorrisB]

what the point of buying the modifiers without the full set, can someone explain the logic?

[E3E]

I'd imagine it's to mix and match with other sets. 

[wlhlm]

You can use it as moogle kit for your WoB 1800 set (at least that's what I'm doing).

d*mn straight!  ;)Same here!

There's a ton of WoB sets out there, incomplete because they have incompatible modifiers!

[KHAANNN]

I will probably have to skip the main set, even if I manage to look past the side prints, or commit to erase them: https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=73551
There is still the "E euro_icon" keycap that messes things up, for me :) - there is also the R4+R5 mix, a bit challenging considering non-standard layouts

On the other hand the CMYKV2 + spacebars are hard to miss - I'm also considering the main set just in case

Does the keycap color match the Dolch GMK modifiers? I couldn't find the color codes for the Dolch GMK

Yup. For me, I have a German WoB set with G81 modifiers (off-center stems).

[geniekid]

No.  They match the black on *normal* WoB caps which are darker than Dolch modifiers.

[KHAANNN]

Good to know, I'm probably going to join too, might as well embrace the spanish side prints and double-shots of the keyboard as a theme, instead of regrets and watching others enjoy the set from the sides

Joining all GMK GB's makes some sense too

[rsadek]

Whaaaaat no posts for 24hours?!!! Buuuuuump!


I'm still extremely excited about this set! It's going to amazing * amazing. Onward to MOQ!!!

Any chance to get an ISO enter included in the modifiers set? I know this question belongs to the interest check phase that is closed; but considering that some are buying that set alone, it makes sense to get one included.

I think it will not be hard to find someone that won't be using his ISO enter and is willing to let it go.

true :)

worst case scenario, the icon-less modifiers are impressive

I wonder the reasoning behind the spanish prints, I'm guessing there was a demand for such a set, this should be a dream come true for some people I guess

From IC thread: https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=70463.msg1702217#msg1702217

Yes, of course Spanish fits the Miami theme as it is probably almost as widely spoken there as English. Spanish is also one of the largest spoken languages on the planet. It's also part of my larger plan of working through major languages. It's been very clear that there isn't enough support for dedicated doubleshot keys for various other language layouts on a cost to demand basis. Adding side pad printing however does not dramatically raise the price, while still offering legends besides US ANSI which I hope will further gain additional interest from those who use the respective layout daily. Eventually I would like to offer sets that have side printed German, Italian, French, Russian, and so on.

[KHAANNN]

That's very enlightening thank you

[wlhlm]

That's very enlightening thank you

I like the additional pad prints. It adds a some flavor to the sets and Ivan said that it's pretty cheap. Also, side-prints don't wear out.

Right, if the main set makes it, it would not be that hard to get one; but, if it does not?

Are we there yet?

CMYKv2 is good, still need about 50 more full sets.

[wlhlm]

CMYKv2 is good, still need about 50 more full sets.

Considering you said we were about 80% MOQ at the end of June:

Since we are still about 80% of MOQ, I am going to go ahead and extend the ordering period another month.

This leaves me very pessimistic, because it means basically zero new orders for the main set until now.

There are probably last minute stalkers like me too

I just shipped my first GMK set, going to inspect them before committing for a new one

I think we have to step up our mockup game here. The GMK render looks really lame, especially the cyan.

Everyone with decent Photoshop-skills, please help me out!

Screw the GMK render, here's a better version:

Wow these look great! If I'm able to sell a board in the next week I'll be placing an order for a second set. Or more...

Would these legends and the elecric blue go? I hope so, I have an order of both!

You mean cyan and blue? Not sure. It might work?
I could try shooting some keys in both colors side by side when I get home.

[lolpes]

Maybe, no reason why it shouldn't the only issue would be white legends on electric bluegaloo vs black caps on this :/

I totally missed the hmm cmyk mods gb earlier this year. Meh.

God no. Not only do the legends clash but the blue/cyan would too.
Nonono. This is like CMYK with dolch. Please spare my eyes.

[taylordcraig]

I'm not trying to be nitpicky but it was CMYW.
WHITE not KEY.
CMYW is running on massdrop right now if you want it
https://www.massdrop.com/buy/gmk-modifier-keys

CMYK hasnt been run since ivan did it two years ago.

I'm only posting this because EVERYONE is calling them the wrong thing, and we really need to differentiate the two sets.
