So happy to see this, Hopefully I can get a set.
Already ordered my kits! Hope they all hit MOQ!
Asking again, sorry if it’s obvious. What kit(s) are pictured with the prime_e? I know it’s not in existence yet but I wanted to check if I’d have it covered lol.

Exciting, this might be my first custom keycap set and first GB. Also waiting for the EU website.
Is there a fixed stock count on these, or will whatever gets ordered until May 10th get produced and shipped? (provided it meets MOQ, I assume?)

It is the latter. Whatever is ordered is what is produced so long as it reaches MOQ. So it’s not a rush but the earlier you get your order in the easier it is to determine what will reach MOQ.
You’ve picked a damn fine GB to join for your first one!

Thanks, I'm really pumped! First time trying DSA as well :)
The only other 2.25 is in the Ortho kit, correct? Just want to make sure I’m not missing something.

Thanks! Not sure how I missed them in the TLK. Wish the M0110 didn’t have such odd sized mods but I think I can make this work. Will just have two enters instead of two shifts.

Yeah... wanted to include it but those big pieces are super expensive. :eek:
Hopefully this is still possible: Could the dark 1u "|\" from the ISO kit be added to ortho/40% as well?

@voodoo6k I was wondering if you had seen my question? I understand if it's too late, but wanted to check.

There's no dark '|\' key because it's not part of the default Planck layout (on which the ortho kit is based). That's just where I drew the line.
Proud to announce that Colevrak has hit MOQ :cool:
Just bought my kits, looks awesome. Actually still my calculator that goes with this set :)
Hi! I'd really like to get my hands on this keyset but being based in Asia should I wait for the Asia proxy to go up or order it from the key dot co?

Thanks voodoo! Can't wait to receive the sets!
Any news on when the EU proxy will be up?

And mykeyboard.eu is about 30-40% more expensive than US... again :(
Right, I did the calculation and it would come about the same price ordering from the US and paying import fees and tax.
It just makes me wonder what the advantage of a proxy is in that case.

Probably reduces and simplifies customs fees. I’m definitely more comfortable buying from a EU proxy, especially if the price is essentially the same.

I would wait a bit. When zFrontier is up, you can compare. I will update as soon as I have more info.

Very nice, and it seems orders actually jumped up after you posted the graphs last time :thumb:
I hope zFrontier could be more punctual honestly, quite disappointed as it is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooo late

Hey!
For the Prime_E (as pictured) you need the following kits:
- Alphas
- Ortho + 40%
- Novelties

Thanks so much for answering my question! Wasn’t sure just going off the picture lol.
I’m definitely in for alphas and ortho, I’m just deciding now if I should go in for novelties. Really excited for this!

No problem!
Keep in mind, if you want to cover the Prime_E then you actually need the novelties (or TKL...) for the extra 1.25u modifiers on the bottom row. Prime_E (with this particular layout) has more 1.25u's than usual for a 40.
Novelties are a must for all keyboards, imo. ;D
How will a Planck with two space bars be covered?
I hope zFrontier could be more punctual honestly, quite disappointed as it is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooo late
and there's still one more vendor to come online!
How will a Planck with two space bars be covered?
Can you please provide a picture of the layout?

It's a very uncommon layout, you can't even find it on Google images, but it's supported. Not many kits cover it tbqh. Guess the cheapest way to do it would be Numpad, if not that then TKL backspace or another 40s kit.

How often will you post updated graphs of MOQ progress?
How often will you post updated graphs of MOQ progress?
I keep a spreadsheet but it's difficult to synchronize all the proxies. They realistically cannot provide daily updates (imagine for all the group buys). I try to send reminders often, thru TKC.

Yeah, of course. Once a week would be more than enough I think, if that's not too much.
That's the curse of making those pretty graphs, now we're all junkies for progress and updates, we want to see those bars grow! :D

I wonder if you could somehow drum up some interest from a tech news site. It’s not often that keyboards are relatable outside of our niche little realm but I think a lot of people could relate to this set because so many people have had experience with the Ti calculators. I dunno how that happens but just a thought.

Ah, yes this makes more sense.Kind of surprised the TKL kit numbers are so low, that means it won't work on any 60/65/75/TKL/1800 boards.
I bet TKL will reach MOQ. zFrontier numbers aren't even included yet.

Thought Id chime in! Voodoo6k is doing a wonderful job administrating this GB! My hats off to him!
Several kits have hit MOQ as of now. We are very close on the others. Close enough that I will buy the extras. So rest assured, if you join, this IS going to happen.
Ok, back to letting Voodoo6k handle this. Everyone, give this guy a pat on the back if you catch him at a meetup!

My bad, just fixed it.
I have sat on the edge with this set from the start. I just ordered the Numpad kit and I plan on using it on a (also just ordered) Mistel MD200 Freeboard. Part of the plan is to make a colour matching acrilic replacement for the orange one that comes with the MD200.
I think the yellow would suit or maybe the green. What do you all think?

What's different? Can't really tell.
If we're talking graph tweaks, it would be nice to be able to see where the MOQ limit was, even after it was surpassed. Would better show how much above MOQ it is when it's done.
I was also really surprised when 40% reached MOQ even before TKL did, even if TKL still wins on pure numbers at this point. Not that I have a 40% board, but for me, the kits were just really well designed and thought through. I was able to get just what I needed and very little else.

I didn't see that this was asked before; will there be extras after the GB?
Oh man, this can't come fast enough now. I bought some cheap PBT caps in Cherry profile, and it turns out they're too shallow for my keyboard (most keyboards, I would assume). They hit the side of the switch top, causing my Gateron Silent switches to be almost clicky ones. Very annoying. Can't wait to have me some deep, rich, thick, DSA bois instead :)

Awesome! Perfect with the 1u fn for my TADA68 :D
Where will they be used and how?
Alpha colored caps => match numericals. Go with option 2.
Mod colored caps => match mods. Go with regular Gorton Modified font @ 0.100"?
I realize it might be overkill to go with both, but I suspect they'll be used both for numericals and mods so going with just one of those heights would make them mismatch the other, I guess. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Last option should be something like 0.225 for phi & h-bar (respecting the 1.5x ratio with pi & e), but that's much larger than any legend on the set. (I think) the alphas are 0.187. There are many other possibilities as well...
Personally, I still prefer Option 2. Keep in mind that, even on the reference calculator, the legends are all different sizes.
They don't have to be consistent in size-- they just have to look consistent.
I think the optimal height is something in the range 0.133~0.143 for pi & e, but I'd rather keep it simple and similar to the regular DSA legends.

Hey... it's me, the DSA Scientific guy...
Update
✓ Order placed
✓ Graphics
✓ Payment
☐ Production (started)
The order was placed shortly after the group buy ended. About ~1 week to compile the proxies' numbers and evaluate how many extras we would each get. Well over 100 in total.
The vectors graphics were finalized and approved a while back. We re-confirmed various details about the legends (eg. equal size Numpad symbols, scale of novelties, etc.)
All our proxies (ahem) have finally paid, just last week. There was an error in the invoice SP sent, and it took an extra week to get the updated invoices. The good news is, detecting the error now means less delays in the future.
We were quoted at 10 weeks (~end August) for production end/shipping. However, that included several weeks for in-house custom colour matching, which was already done (last year!) when I ordered the samples. So, there's potential for cutting down production time quite a bit, depending on whether they need to redo the colour matching. I haven't got a newer time estimate (other than 10 weeks). For now, they have started to work on various molds. Therefore, we can say that, for all practical purposes, production has started!
I will update when I have further information.
Cheers!
Nice! Do you know if the teal color will get a SP color code assigned? Would love to get some colored spacebars, but all that's currently available is the GB (dark gray)...

I doubt it.
You could ask SP to make some while the group buy is in production, but it will be very expensive. If you can gather 10 people, then it could be around $15 each (that's my guess from a previous quote).

I asked and the price is $50 for a single teal 6.25u spacebar! :eek:

wait, almost 200 sets sold in the last 2 days? Is this a vendor purchasing extras? :eek:

Yeah... it did boom on the last day, but many extras were added after the buy ended.
Basically, that's the final order we sent to the manufacturer. It accounts for all buys, errors and extras.
It wasn't really necessary to publish it, but TKC posted these numbers on their website, so might as well... for historical purposes.
Does anyone know if there will be sets to buy through the vendors after the GB is finished?
Is this set still expected to ship on August 12, as it states on TheKey.Company?

I haven't got any news from SP about DSA Scientific (even though I'm in contact with them for another project).
Not sure where TKC got August 12 from... August is still the expected ship date, derived from the 10 weeks ETA (after order).
I will update as soon as I have more info!

Following up on this. Aug 12 is only 4 days from now. Is that when it will ship from the vendor, or is that when it'll ship from vendor to customers?

No no no... August 12 on TKC's website is wrong. I looked at GMK Skiidata and the date is the same, so it must be a placeholder date from when they overhauled the website. (no idea...)
I still have no date from SP on shipping. The "August" shipping date is calculated from the normal DSA doubleshot production time estimate, which is 10 weeks from payment.
As far as I am concerned, production should finish and ship to the vendors in August, assuming there are no delays.
As mentioned in the previous post, I will update as soon as I have further info.

Updated our page. Spoke to Melissa yesterday. We are on track for delivery before the end of August. I set the ESTIMATED fulfillment date as 9/01 and will update again when we get more info.
Me too ^^
What case are you guys planning to use with it?

Any word on US shipments?
As some of you may know, SP sent off Scientific to the wrong address, despite me providing my new warehouse info as well as my own UPS account number to use.
The package was supposed to be redirected and held at the local UPS hub for us to pick up.
Well, UPS only held 1/7 of the packages :-(
TL;DR DSA Scientific wont ship until next week. Sorry for the bad news.
Got my tracking information from mykeyboard.eu :thumb:

My sets just arrived, they look lovely. One problem, though: The ISO enter keys don't fit my Vortex Race 3 :(
The stabilizers are in the wrong place, see attached picture. The grey key in the middle is the original Race 3 key, the other two are the DSA scientific keys. Was there another ISO enter key for the Race 3?
The ISO enter key was actually just brought to our attention yesterday afternoon. We are working on re-running these but likely won’t be ready to ship them out until Monday.
Oh crap...
Let me look into this.
Edit: Response from SP:QuoteThe ISO enter key was actually just brought to our attention yesterday afternoon. We are working on re-running these but likely won’t be ready to ship them out until Monday.
Sorry about that! You will get replacements. Keep those as novelty items! :cool:

Thanks for the quick reaction! I ordered mine via mykeyboard.eu, do I have to notify them or will all that be taken care of?
It's already been addressed earlier in the topic

Ah, right, my bad. I missed the reply to that convo.
Guess I'll send an e-mail to mykeyboard just to let them know and wait. Thankfully I just bought my first ANSI keyboard, so maybe the kit won't go to waste in the meantime either way :D
I ordered with mykeyboard.eu but I do not have any shipping info yet. Is anyone else waiting on them?

I recieved mine week ago, but seeing €100+ product shipped in seal bags was a surprise. Not mykeyboard fault but manufacturer.

Best looking combo I have seen in a while. Great choice for that board.
My order has shipped, delay was due to the ISO key issue. They wanted to make sure all orders were ok before shipping them out :thumb:I ordered with mykeyboard.eu but I do not have any shipping info yet.

No rush, just wanting to double check if it was still something being sorted out.

Update 23 Sept 2019 Signature plastics sent back 6/7 boxes. Waiting on the last box, it was to be dispatched today. They are also sending the fixed ISO kits, so we can ship it all once it arrives. I expect these to be out the door by Wednesday, 9/25 barring no further delays from SP.

That's one thing. Another is how bad the sprues are on all the caps, and the fact that they seem to be putting the on the front of the caps. I honestly would expect more quality for the money they charge.
I have my first GMK set coming up soon as well, will be interesting to see the difference between the two.
did extras of this already go up?

yakk's are sold out but the other vendors should have theirs available anytime now...
I would contact them directly depending on your region.
I have not received any caps or had an email from mykeyboard.eu. Is anyone else here still waiting?me too. (I can't even be upset with them, so I had written one E-Mail only.) I got switches from mykeyboard.eu yesterday. So they still working. I'dont know whats going on.
For those who haven't noticed... the ISO Enters are in actual DSA profile and not DCS like it was in the past.

Wait what? Really? I got mine shipped before, but didn't notice (haven't dressed a keyboard with them yet though). Have SP made any statements about the DSA ISO Enters finally being in the correct profile?
Has anyone heard anything about the ISO Enters or received a replacement?

NecromanX Today at 9:46 AM
not yet
they were stuck in customs
and they ended sending them back ...
SP didnt ship it with proper documents since it was not a commercial transaction so it needed proof for those things
we have to wait till SP reships it
I ll query them and see if they got them back already
Is there any chance for an R2 of this?
SA SNES... Tell me more?Is there any chance for an R2 of this?
Yes, but I'm focusing on SA SNES at this time...
