I've just thought of.... I wonder how many of you have KBDs related to me.
Any Keyboard related to me(What I designed, What I tuned, What I assembled, and whatever related to me.) welcome.
I just want to see how many. ;)
I will pick up 5 members at 11:00 PM on Sep 10th(Time in Korea), and send an Aikon 2.7b Controller to each of the winner.
(I will send this via general mail without tracking and slow. So... it will take some time for you to get it. ;))
You can apply Aikon to modify old KBDs so that you can connect it via USB and re-map keys as you want.
[attach=1]
I applied Aikon to DK Saver, an old Korean Custom KBD.
[attach=2]
Magnified view on the controller
[attach=3]
If you need to connect CapL LED, do as this.
[attach=4]
Have closed the upper case. Looks fine. ;)
MKULTRA - 4
Xenderwind - 2
keyit - 9
Glod - 6
PointyFox - 1
codyeatworld - 7
Meiosis - 5
Sifo - 8
ItsBc - 10
Turkishrambo - 3
I chose numbers for PointyFox, Cody, and ItsBC ,for they didn't make their choice. ;)
[attach=5]
The Final Outcome
[attach=6]
Winners are who chose 4,5,7,1,2.
Guys who chose those numbers send me your name/address/phone number through PM.
(Even though the item doesn't arrive, I won't send it again. So... plz give me exact info. I hope you have good luck with your post. ;))

But mine is really difficult to photograph. I lack any equipment and the lighting in my house is complete ****. My phone wanted to keep making all my klaxon keys pink instead of red so this is the best I can do. The original owner has much better pics than me http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=46496.msg982342#msg982342
But here is what I have:

I really wanted the red housings since Asuka is one of my favorite characters (better than Mari, sorry Sifo). So I felt this is probably the best I could do, and this is the only tsangan kit I have. But I could also go with standard red alert/klaxon colors. Cant wait for my cable from raccoon :D.

My Kitty Pad that i messed the LEDs/PCB after trying to mess with a broken trace and now no LEDs :(:(:(:( I may get a new Kitty Pad PCB if i order a GON GH60 Housing (if possible to do so)

It'd be better if you had succeeded to apply LEDs.
But it still look sexy. ;)
P.S. Of course you can order extra PCB. ;)

I assume its like pipe maze in mario party. instead it drops 5 and goes to certain ones. If you read the bottom it says which ones won. I originally was going to pick 7 because squirtle was awesome and I always pick seven. But I felt I had to pick 02 this time, and it failed.

But then the answers would be predetermined. He posted a picture of the board before hand and the Win/Lose is alternating and never changed, only the position of hte people above :O

Yup, because it's true for both threads. They offer services/sales in the forum and both are pretty much vendors (though only Gon is officially) and both only offer Korean custom keyboards, either their own (Gon) or ones they buy and make for people. To me this is just marketing their stuff to get people to buy it when they should be either in their own vendor- sub-forum in the case of Gon or in the Korean Keyboards post in the case of ListKoi. If they want to have people show off their boards in the media section, it should be in the Korean Keyboard post that has been up for some time.

I'm confused, shouldn't this just be a part of the Korean customs thread? This just seems like marketing your cases in the media section.
I'm confused, did you just copy pasted this to listokei too?

Hmm. I get your point but I don't see any harm done in doing this. I have to admit sometimes I do search korean custom thread just to see GONs, now I have 1 thread to go to :)

With that logic we could also get rid of the girldc keycap thread and any other thread and just simplify all threads into "post your keyboard" because post your qfr or post your ducky is still marketing, whether it is done by someone else or the company themselves.
Honestly, I think the GirlDC and Clacks thread should probably just be a post your custom keycaps thread, but they're so established and a part of the community that changing anything is unlikely to happen. They've long been cornerstones in here. Not only that, but they were started by people other than those providing the service. Mkawa, moderator supreme, created those threads.
Unlike the Clack and GirlDC threads, these were created by the people providing the service to explicitly market their specific services (ListKoi) and cases (Gon). Unlike the Ducky example you gave, they do not even make their own PCBs. There's a reason that all the Korean Keyboards are kind of lumped together, they were small production runs or used a PCB from a group buy for a custom case. So you'll have Phantoms, GH60s, and so on in here that all already have their own thread.

its a forum sir, i want my information to be easy to find and access, i dont wanna look through pages and pages of korean keyboards to find one made by this person or that person, if i wanna look at a collection of someones work, this seems a great way of doing it, im not getting at you nubbs, but i really think these threads are a good thing, i cant see them doing any harm whatsoever, but i can certainly see a benefit

Only CapsL and NumL LEDs are placed in the switches.
To make a beautifully glowing defusion, most of the current that USB can supply should be assigned to Side LEDs.

Can't decide whether to go with a short right shift and locking FN button to the right of it, or whether I should go with an ESC or a ~ on the upper left.Show Image(http://www.fototime.com/C1F596A15DC20A4/medium800.jpg)Show Image(http://www.fototime.com/3B2EA978D8C0158/medium800.jpg)Show Image(http://www.fototime.com/B7C3F600085FCFE/medium800.jpg)
Thank you for posting these photos. I have a 38GT, but it's does not have the the controller or resistors installed. This helps a lot!

I had forgotten that 38GT doesn't support winkeyless bottom row with 7x spacebar so I used it with my custom plate instead.

I assembled it last night, wasn't too bad. By default if you use a 1.75x right shift, then the key to the right of it is Fn by default. Fn + Esc is "~`". I just typed it on the keyboard actually :p

That looks awesome!! What case is that?
I like the Winkey bottom row. SOOOOO much easier to find capsets and no more Tsangan hassles?? No one wants to sell their modifier kits.
Where is that spacebar from? What is that? A 10.5x? Looks like the spacebar from my WYSE set?

I like the idea of side lighting with no backlighting so I don't have bright LEDs in my eyes, but lightens up my desk space with sort of ambient lighting.

How do GONs stack up to other custom keyboards like the KMAC? At first glance they seem like nothing more than 2 plates, and a pcb. How do they compare to the keyboard with solid cases, any why do they cost just as much as a board with a solid case?

They are indeed sturdy and feel great. They will be a bit lighter than a KMAC, as they are made of less material, but I'm with dustin here. Couldn't wait to get mine, and I'm glad I did get one. :thumb:

I don't think GONs cost as much as KMAC. GON's unassembled kit costs ~$250 while KMAC costs $400+. The assembled GONs cost about the same as unassembled KMAC. Personally, I prefer the heaviness of boards like KMAC. And I find Gon's design looks better with 60% and 75% boards, where the top plate is completely covered with caps, than TKL.

Oh cool! I'd be very interested to see pics of yours when you get it. I am about to order a non-glare pink board from GON, but I want ideally a light pink vs. hot pink, I'm just interested to see how different your non-glare green will be compared to mine as a gauge of how different the same colors end up sort of thing!

I could have sworn I saw 2 or 3 pink GONs on classifieds recently. You might want to look into those before you commit to buying a new one. Might be able to save yourself some.

My goodness... I think that a GON will be my next purchase. These boards look like a cherry mx endgame, screw everything else!
So true, you won't be disappointed. Don't forget to pay for the whole lot up front so GON can piece it together for you, his skill set is far higher than any of us mere mortals here on GH.
He has built nearly all of my keyboards and each one gets used regularly on every PC that has been set up. I am hoping in the near future I will have all of his keyboards connected to every computer in my house :thumb: .

Customer board is done! Also a little blurb I posted about his new GUI software that was released (you can find over here: http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=50577.msg1105404#msg1105404 in the attachments)
I think GON has just created the most easy to use and intuitive GUI software for a custom keyboard. Well translated unlike many other Korean mapping softwares, no weird menus and everything just makes sense. If you were debating before about getting a NerD after seeing the keymapping software, I 100% recommend buying one (I even know someone who could assemble it for you :O)
I know he's been working on it for a very long time and he should be proud of his work. It's too bad he wasn't the program designer for other brands ;(
Great stuff :thumb:
Highly considering picking up one of my own + a few additional PCBs to replace the outdated A.87s inside of mine.

so i got a red unbuilt GON Nerd60 HHKB and GONpad, both are in RED semi-glare
originally i was going to put red in the center and white leds on top but im wondering if maybe i have the wrong idea, im wondering if i should do a different color scheme. I'm thinking red in the center/bottom is still a good idea and already have the leds and resistors for it, just maybe the white on the top is a bad idea. maybe orange, blue or something else would be better. maybe i should just stick to doing red in the center and no leds on top. DSA Dolch or GMK dolch is going to be going on it btw
anyone want to give suggestions?

Go with SIP pins. That way you could opt for any color LED you want given the resistance range.

Sip pins not a bad idea. You guys (xender) think I should do a different color in the center?
I'd consider white in the center and orange on top. Not sure how orange LEDs with the red case and Dolch will look, but I think it's worth a consideration.

Sip pins not a bad idea. You guys (xender) think I should do a different color in the center?Definitely think a different color would be a better idea. I think the ability to make it an essential two-toned case is part of the appeal of it. hrinfinity and me both have white led's in the middle of our red gons.

Or how orange in center would look. But I'm also weird in my color schemes since I'm using WoO alphas from round 3 and WoR mods/function keys. Though white is the safer option as it will probably look good with most keycap sets.

Now I'm curious to see how your caps look. Orange alphas and red mods? They don't clash at all? I want this color combination to work, but I would need to see it. :D
Also, agreeing that white is the safer option. Especially with a flashy color for the board itself. But I'd still give orange a try. :P
I'm not entirely convinced that blue LEDs with the red case would be great, but I would still try it. Not too hard to power up the LED and hold it by the case to see how they look together. :)

I got a couple pics but they're pretty bad quality from my potato phone. Doesn't help that I have a glass desk so it's kinda hard to get it to look good.

Okay, I totally did not mean to attack the color scheme and make you feel bad, I was just genuinely curious! :) I promise.
And now that makes so much sense. I like it. :thumb: It's hard to visualize, but it does look really good in practice.
Post by: Glod on Wed, 30 July 2014, 17:55:20
i think the decision will be white in the center, and sip sockets on the top allowing me to switch out and mix Orange, Red, and Yellow LEDs (i have sqare top orange and round top red LEDs on hand.
i just need to get some white SMD LEDs and matching resistors for the spots for them on the Nerd60 and GonPad. damn would have been easier to get it from GON before he shipped but i guess ill go hunting on a components site.
feel free to add opinions anyone lol

Okay, I totally did not mean to attack the color scheme and make you feel bad, I was just genuinely curious! :) I promise.Haha don't worry, I didn't take it that way. I just knew some people wouldn't be open to the idea of a such a silly themed board. I wish I had the function row orange keys as well but I don't think I'll ever find someone selling those.
And now that makes so much sense. I like it. :thumb: It's hard to visualize, but it does look really good in practice.
Another reason I'm open to the color scheme is I attended VT for a couple years before switching majors and maroon+orange grew on me.

I have vintage lubed clears in there from circa '93. I built an orion for someone and used vintage clears in that from a skidata (those were '95), and I liked them so much that I decided to chop up my skidata :DSolid. I need to give clears another go. I tried them once, but preferred browns over them. I should try some Ergo Clears though.

Ergo Clears are really what browns should have been. The tactile bump in browns is too insignificant for me to the point where they just feel like dirty reds. I do rock Ergo Clears on my daily driver (GON MX Mini) and I also game on it without any issues.

So much left to do but one step closer to finishing my Nerd60, by getting the side SMD LEDs and diodes in and board programmed and tested
So bright....So Awesome

decided on stock clears, no mods except sip sockets which i have
Looking good Glod! Can't wait to see it finished up.

His pcbs are pretty forgiving, just take your time and you'll be fine. :D A gon 38gt was my first build. (I ended up putting way to many leds on it though)
Zeal, what is that red underneath the spacebar?
It's the 38gt pcb, the leds are making it glow.

Actually the PCB is just like other boards where it is attached to the top plate of the case. You can see the PCB causing a shadow within the glowing part of the keyboard in the pictures. ;)

i love it, the NerdyGUI is fantastic and i love the feel of these stock clears on here, its actually makes a unique "thock" sound, not the same as topre but its really unique and ping free
though i can complain that the rear LEDs shine through the green Nerd60 PCB. almost forcing my hand to do white in switch LEDs.
layout is loyal to the HHKBpro2 layout except for the \|, Backspace, ESC, and ~ for better keycap compatibility but i didn't put in a stabilizer for the backspace so if i wanted to go 100% to HHKB layout i could just desolder one switch and solder in two in place, which is probably what i am going to do because i keep typing in \ when i want to backspace, which is odd because i don't do that on any other keyboard, my mind actually sees this as a real HHKB
bottom layout is 1.25, 1.5, 7, 1.5. 1.25. problem?
damn-it, as im typing im noticing my 1 key is skipping keys and is totally not working somewhat., i probably have a bad joint but that sucks, now i have to take it apart again.....

Wow that is bright! Looks amazing though.
I'm not sure if it supports 1.25 + 1.5 + 7. Check the switch positioning on the pcb.
I think it does 1.5 + 1 + 7 on both sides.
If it is skipping keys or a key stop registering make sure you install all the diodes, I forgot one and a key stopped working after a remap.
The one I forgot was just beneath the 2X backspace, there should be a diode in horizontal direction. Between ]} and ANSI \

Thankfully there is a brightness setting in nerdy ui for the leds, i was just taking a photo of the side ones on full blast.
no 1.25, 1.5, 7, 1.5., 1.25 works and in my opinion looks better due to the light bleed. i said "problem" like i was trolling some diehards. when i posted this thing last night i had everything soldered in
the skipping keys was a bad solder joint on the switch, its fixed and tested now
What color LED are you using under the WASD and Caps Lock?
i put sip sockets in esc,q,w,e,a,s,d,f,and space and currently there is orange LEDs in there.

Whoa, Glod that is an awesome board, much brighter than my NS 38GT. Did not know the SMD LED + Brightness control made such a huge difference. Looks amazing!
What color LEDs are those? White or teal?
They are white, but they are reflecting off the inside of the sky-blue casing so that may have some effect on the result color. LED's are done through the cherry holes, so they aren't right up against the edge like the SMD's are, so that might also increase the effect of the case color.
is that an icemat in the background? O_O
It's a Maxtill G2-PAD (http://www.ebay.com/itm/MAXTILL-G2-PAD-glass-pad-BLACK-approved-by-professional-gamers-/111303849865?pt=US_Mouse_Pads_Wrist_Rests&hash=item19ea39f789) :] I may write a review of it on Geekhack, I really enjoy it a lot so far.
Oh, that's right. I was confused because of the perceived thinness of the case. How thin is it actually, by the way?I'm afraid I don't know the actual dimensions of it, sorry. It must be posted somewhere, but I couldn't find them on the website.

You can never go wrong with white LEDs. Color changers lessen the brightness, which makes the backlight uneven, so using sockets is a better choice if changing LED colors is important, but they're a bigger hassle. Your GON looks perfect as-is, though!

Really nice, Bull. Super simple and clean. Lovin' it. It's great to see a board that doesn't have crazy colors or several different LED colors (not that there's something wrong with that) but sometimes less really is more. :thumb:
Thanks. Besides personal preference I wanted to go conservative on my first fancy keyboard so that it's compatible with various different key cap sets.
Post by: absyrd on Sat, 30 August 2014, 05:10:38
And, yeah, the color choices of case, too, make it very compatible with any and every keyset you might get.
Nice build, bull!

That's a fantastic question, actually. I'm trying to locate something that would look right with the blue. I have a few sets that would look okay... but I really need something to pop! Such is the life. I'm a big fan of the Cherry profile and thick PBT, so something in that realm.
What color is the anodized plate? Also does it have in switch LEDs? Maybe the GMK hyperfuse that Bunnylake is going to run?
BTW I am loving the HHKB. Probably going to purchase a GON with the HHKB layout because of it.

The plate is a baby blue, which isn't too apparent in this photo. I'll take another at a different angle so it's easier to see. If you flip back a few pages, I think Lastpilot had some photos with a better white balance that show the plate more clearly.

The product page on GON's website states that the NerD NS 60 Crystal will be compatible with Wireless... which suggests that a 60% NerD NS Crystal is in the works????
Sent a message to GON to confirm, and if this turns out to be true, the Crystal 60 will be my first GON!

what a magnificent board. i can't decide if the crystal or acrylic housing looks better, but Crystal is the only housing that supports wireless so it's an easy choice to make when you're considering a purchase
Doesn't the acrylic housing support wireless? The module is just attached onto the PCB. I thought it just wouldn't work on the NS housing.

I don't think that's true... unless you are referring to his assembly options.
Acrylic housing should work with wireless, since I'm pretty sure the bluetooth signal can get through acrylic as opposed to the aluminum from the NS housing.

Did you really just ignore what I said about the acrylic case? Do you really think that GON has a special wireless module that will ONLY work with his Crystal housing? You're really deluded, and need to use your head a bit.

Perhaps they're not talking about the housing blocking transmission, but the case not fitting the PCB and wireless module.

Well in that case I'm an idiot and misunderstood. I'm not 100% sure about the clearance size of the wireless module.
Anyone know if GON has addressed that acrylic case with wireless anywhere?

I'm just going to ignore what happened because this is something that I am sure many others would like to know.
The NerD 60 PCB v2.0 and TKL PCB v2.0 product pages specifically state that the acrylic cases are NOT COMPATIBLE with the wireless controllers he offers. At the moment the ONLY cases available from GON that support his wireless controllers are his polycarbonate Crystal cases.
TKL:

60:
http://www.gonskeyboardworks.com/pcbs-and-controllers/113-nerd-60-ver20-pcb.html
Feel free to draw your own conclusions with regard to why they aren't supported.
Here are my top two theories:
1. GON sprinkles translucent powdered unicorn horns in the acrylic plastics he uses for his acrylic cases to improve the feel of the case and to increase exclusivity. Unfortunately, as we all know, unicorn horns are slightly metallic and cause the GON acrylic housings to act like Faraday cages, thus blocking Bluetooth signal completely and lending to the incompatibility of the acrylic cases with GON's wireless controller.
2. The acrylic case was engineered to super tight tolerances before the 2.0 PCBs were designed and thus can not physically accommodate the wireless versions of the new PCBs without serious modifications.
Good day.
TLDR:
GON's current Acrylic cases are incompatible with the wireless versions of the NerD 2.0 PCBs.

Indeed they are a nice match!
Did you end up rebuilding the entire thing or did you manage to slip the stab back in the way it came out? It's a pretty ****ty feeling, its all coming back to me now as this happened a while ago while changing from hyperfuse dsa to the bro set.

Indeed they are a nice match!Trying to "slip" that stab wire back in was like playing Operation on hell mode. I just couldn't get enough leverage to give enough force for the wire to snap back in place. I became frustrated and stayed up late to rebuild the entire thing and ended up scratching the plate in a few places (removing switches with screwdrivers, wow bad idea). oh yeah good times, lololol.

It sucked because the board had just arrived to me earlier that day already built exactly how I wanted it. XD

Do you mean the wire or the plastic part? It wasn't the stab wire that came out of mine, but the little black part that mounts to the stem of the keycap.

Just noticed that as well. GON only has 1x-1.5x-7x-1.5x-1x and 1.25x-1.25x-6.25x-1.25x-1.25x-1.25x listed on his site.

thanks guys, im using blue switches with 78g korean springs from Sprit's group buy, they are essentially clear springs but are made a little bit softer when bottoming out, i think the closest it feels like is mx white/milk switches but more "classic" mechanical feeling and sounding
also every switch has sip sockets so i can hot swap different color leds

No idea m8, when I hit him up on Skype when I was enquiring like middle of last year he replied pretty quickly. Though I hear that there is like a 5 month waiting time atm for GON's as he is super busy so maybe that's why he's not on GH so much atm??

What all do I need to buy from GONs if I just want to put this in a compatible PokerX case (I really like the TEX cases)? Do I need a plate? I know I need the PCB, do I need diodes?
Thanks for the help!

That's dark grey w purplish blue?? I thought it was black w blue LEDs . Do you have any more pics of the board, perhaps in a more neutral/everyday light? I'm thinking of ordering parts for my own Gon board soon and trying to decide on colors.
Gorgeous board!

Yeah unfortunately the LEDs always come out as blue in my photos. They actually look like a soft purple with some blue to them. And the dark grey does look like dark grey, but my pics are pretty dark. :)
I don't have any sunlight photos of the bare board right now, but here are some previous photos that should give a better idea of the dark grey. Just a note that GON told me that dark grey was discontinued and that mine was the last one in that color.

ah thanks man, i will try that out next time i take photos. :) hopefully it does the trick, since all my purple things end up looking like blue.

I'd really like a GON 60% keyboard in an aluminum case (with no LEDs).Diodes are a must. Resistors are necessary if you intend on putting in LEDs. Plate is optional but recommended.

haha, it's pretty dark, and i guess it looks close to a matte black in low lighting. anyways, i picked grey to serve as a neutral color so that i could use the board with both light and dark colored caps. i love the looks of bright colored boards, but then i would be mostly stuck with keycaps that matched that color.
looking forward to seeing what you get! it'll take a few months though...! :p

Well, I actually got this one by trading my old Listerine, so I shall pass. :)
Just got my order today. More pictures to come once I get some proper ones.
That looks beautiful. Love the blue plate with blue bolts, and they are such pretty shades of blue. What color LEDs did you get? Looking forward to more pics. :)

Beautiful, just beautiful..... I wish the acrylic case had the NerD engraving on it.
kind of a bummer that this case doesn't allow for switch opening but it makes sense too since it's a "floating switch" design so it'd probably be visible even with the caps on and slightly ugly. At the same time he also took the care to get the switch notches done so i guess that's the tradeoff.

I am referring to side LEDs. I am not sure if there are locations for front LEDs though; however, based on the pictures posted recently for a 40% with a front one, I wonder if the Nerd60 has a location for a LED at the front.

GONs website does mention Side LED support for the Nerd60 PCB so I would guess it support Side LEDs all around like the tkl PCB for example. :)
However I couldn't find a pic of the bottom of the Nerd60 PCB atm to confirm that it does.
Didn't you just receive yours ideus, did you post pics by any chance?
For the tkl version (http://www.gonskeyboardworks.com/pcbs-and-controllers/150-nerd-tkl-ver20-pcb-w-full-smt.html) there is a pictures of the bottom on GONs website and you can see the soldering spots for Side LEDs going all the way around.

I just found some pictures from seedvd's Nerd60 Build Log (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=63507.0) which shows pictures of the PCB bottom.
It doesn't seem to be a V2.0 PCB but I quickly marked the Side LED spots incase it might help you out ideus! :)

It would be pretty awesome if you could share some pics of your PCB tho since I haven't seen many of the V2 PCB!
The Side LED spots should also be marked on the PCB so you can always refer to GONs tutorial on soldering Side LEDs (http://www.gonskeyboardworks.com/manuals/129-nerd-side-ledsmd-led-soldering.html) as well!

Thank you very much for the pictures. Problem is I just ordered resistors for LEDs inside the switches, and the side ones take less ohms. Eitherway.
Sure, welcome Ideus!
I just tried to figure out my order for a Nerd60 with Crystal case and posted a few questions I had regarding LED resistors and more (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=43915.600) aswell... xD

you can basically go buy the resistors in your local electric shop. Gon has recommendations on the site.

I can't wait to get an HHKB style board like the Viper or GON. Gotta save up and sell some things :)
I would configure my Nerd60 ala SpaceFN with ISO Enter key; thus, it will take standard keys only, and the TouchCursor takes care of the keys in the central 9 keys cluster.

yessir. :) i got a set of blanks and printed. they are super thick and solid and feel great. my GON's clears feel quite different with these caps compared to the GMK and OG Cherry doubleshots i was using earlier. smoother and with more thock?

Its true, its description at the GON's site explain that the case takes a Nerd 60 PCB and it only blocks one and two key positions at the bottom, which is exactly this.

+1 Im also wondering how long it usually takes to order from GON these days? =)
I believe Ideus got his Nerd60 PCB crazy quick not to long ago. (like within 10 days if I remeber correctly)
I ordered a Nerd60 and Crystal case roughly around the same same time (like about a month ago without assembly), but I also expected it to take longer when ordering a case since things might not be in stock and need to be produced first I guess.
Also since the shipping its international shipping, for all I know it could even have made its way to Germany yet and be stuck in customs over here...

I can confirm I got my PCB, diodes and resistors pretty quick; as you said, everything was in stock then. I hope your order will reach you soon.
Post by: FoC_Tow on Mon, 04 May 2015, 17:53:29
I wasn't really concerned at all and sorta expected it to take longer then yours since I'm not sure if the case was in stock honestly plus its international.
Just the general talk of orders taking some time now (and the increased anticipation due to my Gateron GB order being shipped a few days ago) has sparked some worries I guess... xD
GON also send me few mails regarding my questions for polycarb screws (and screw dimensions). But I shot him a mail regarding an idea I had semi related to my order a while back and haven't gotten an answer yet.
Of course I do understand GON is a busy man tho and am generally patiently waiting, so no rush at all just wondering! =)

ill take some proper pictures with flash lightning some day soon, for now there's a few ****ty ones here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/wr0m/sets/72157648631857464/
as for the lead time on my order i have to say way longer than expected.
i talked to GON before placing the order and he assured me he would be able to send it within max 3 days, that wasnt the case and it took around 3 months and a few calls from my side before he finally got it sent, not that i dont understand he might have gotten a crazy workflow suddenly, but when you pay around 380USD in advance with the assurance there would not be any waiting involved it would've been nice with a email/pm explaining the situation.

Im honestly confused now tho if I should try to contact GON or just have some more patience and wait tho...
I guess I could shoot him another mail (since I haven't mailed him for weeks now) but then again I really don't want to bother GON more then necessary.
On the other hand, I'm already considering to order a secondary nerd60 pcb for another project, so If I contact him I could ask if its still possible to add one to my original order and save on shipping... xD

It's true that you can't anodize aluminum white, but besides painting there would still be the option to powder coat.
Depending on the kind of powder coating, this might also even be stronger in terms of scratch resistance compared with anodizing afaik.
However, Powder Coating adds quite a bit of thickness to the parts (while anodizing just changes color of the aluminum instead of adding a layer on top)
so you couldn't powder coat hole screws for example like you would with anodizing since it most likely would ruin the threads.

Correct and the exact grey color is determined by the type of alu being anodized.

Is it possible to program a LED to turn on when FN1, or FN2 is locked?You can have it so the in switch leds or the side leds light up when you activate a function layer. But not a single led.
Post by: FoC_Tow on Sun, 10 May 2015, 10:36:04
Is it possible to program a LED to turn on when FN1, or FN2 is locked?
Did you check out GONs video on Nerdy GUI LED config (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NnI6sH-aJOA#t=35) Ideus? =)
Im slightly confused what exactly you meant by FN 'locked' tbh, but from what it looks like you can definitely Link the Backlight LEDs and/or Side LEDs to FN1 or FN2. (which I guess would mean LEDs coming on whenever you access the assigned function layer.)
However you don't get this option for the indicator LED so that one can not be linked to FN from what it looks like.
I kinda have a question regarding LEDs on a Nerd60 pcb as well.
Is it possible to program Num-lock on one of the function layers and link the Indicator LED to it to get manual control with a designated button?
(so basically since there is no num keys on 60% its hole purpose would be controlling the indicator LED)
Im planning to make use of (might say abuse) the third LED channel for a project and just want manual LED on/off control... =)

Is it possible to program a LED to turn on when FN1, or FN2 is locked?You can have it so the in switch leds or the side leds light up when you activate a function layer. But not a single led.
It is what I think, you can define all of them to light up at once; but, not individually.

If you double tap the FN keys they will stay on/locked to the FN layer till you double tap it again.

Now I'm not 100% sure what you're asking but you can program any button anywhere on any layer you like so it sounds possible if I'm understanding what you're asking.
But I would imagine that the NerD60 doesn't have a indicator socket for num lock unless you were using a different source for that indicator light.

Damnit.. I am going to need to buy another GON..
ALWAYS get more GON in your life :thumb: .
His keyboards are to die for and you can have it customized to what ever you like, I always get him to make it for me because I'm a moron when it comes to making anything small and complicated and his keyboards are just that.
Going to get his full sized (104) keyboard which is absolute hard-core porn, for the very keen in Korean Keyboards.
GON is what represents the very BEST in Korean one-man manufacturing, like what Rolex was in 1905. So if you want the absolute best of the best in keyboards today, you can't go past a GON 8) .

THX Evo! =)
I was referring to the indicator LED next to Caps lock.
Its used as Caps Lock indicator by default (and to show macro/programming mode etc) but it looks like Nerdy gui can also Link this Indicator LED to Num-Lock or Scroll-Lock.
So if I where to use this LED Channel for a mod, I could most likely link to num-lock to have a dedicated button to toggle the LED on/off, right?
I kinda think it should work as long as you can program num-lock on the Nerd60 with Nerdy gui. :)

The LEDs are "Peach Red" in Chinese. It's closer to pink not red. ;D
And yeah, my top layer is frosted/matte like finish. :)

Sorry, I got shaky hands :(
If you see the led in the Esc position it cycles to red at one point, so the others are definitely not red :p

That looks great!
About the bleed, I've had success using aluminum foil tape, cutting tiny squares and placing them on top of the LEDs, redirecting the light downwards. It's reversible and less work than paint.

Same! Now I want to get a green GON HHKB, but the price tag is killer.
It's the waiting time that's put me off, kinda waiting to see what Bunny has cooked up for [Ctrl]Alt's relaunch and follow up to the GH60 thing

OK so the switches are soldered but I still need to finish the LEDs and SIP sockets. I ended up going with 78g gateron clears with black cherry switch tops.

Cost depends on the size of the piece you want coated and the thickness of the coating. Powder coating can be very inexpensive from what I know though.

This is why you have a GON and then pick up a a KMAC/LZ/OTD/Duck board all the same. Gotta cover all your bases. :-* I also find that I tend to like my artisan caps on an enclosed case for some reason. It might be because something like a GON or Kaliet board makes them appear even larger than they are and it already bothers me slightly that they aren't the same profile as all my other keys. :-\

You would actually be surprised at how light the OTD 356cl is.. When I first picked up the box it came in I thought it was empty. However Ducks on the other hand, are fantastically heavy and it gives them a nice premium feel to them. Gon boards in my opinion are absolutely gorgeous but actually feel quite fragile. I am always afraid I am going to scratch my beautiful blue anodizing.

Yeah GONs are crazy light, my 40% with an SS plate weighs almost twice as much as the GON. I thought the weight would bug me because I loved the weight of my lightsaver (which would've been functional as a boat anchor :)) ) but I've just decided that the GON will be my "take to class" board.
I love the look of the anod on the board but it is really soft.

Eh, I buy boards to use them not frame them and talk about how good they feel. Also a sharpie used properly can correct small damage. If the board ever gets really messed up I have no problem redoing the anod.agree ^^^^^^ the gon I just picked up has no in switch LEDs . I was thinking of adding some but im kind of on the fence. When I first got into mechanical keyboards LEDs were important to me. As time has gone im finding my preferences changing a bit. Gons keyboards big appeal to me was the massive amount of LED configurability and of course his build and component quality. Now I'm almost wishing I had gotten a board that was more enclosed/weighted casing/frame something like a KMAC/OTD Duck etc all though now that I have the board in hand there is no doubt in my mind that these are the smoothest ergo clears I have ever typed on. The board has an amazing feel and i don't regret the purchase at all just my tastes are changing !I'm starting to agree... I just wish those top plates came in white
I never actually use any LED's in the top; well, very rarely. Side glow is a different story, though. That nice ambient lighting from the sides and/or bottom is kind of soothing. :))
You would actually be surprised at how light the OTD 356cl is.. When I first picked up the box it came in I thought it was empty. However Ducks on the other hand, are fantastically heavy and it gives them a nice premium feel to them. Gon boards in my opinion are absolutely gorgeous but actually feel quite fragile. I am always afraid I am going to scratch my beautiful blue anodizing.
Yeah GONs are crazy light, my 40% with an SS plate weighs almost twice as much as the GON. I thought the weight would bug me because I loved the weight of my lightsaver (which would've been functional as a boat anchor :)) ) but I've just decided that the GON will be my "take to class" board.

Maybe i'm just not as sensitive to it as some other people but i personally don't feel any flex with my acrylic case GON. That said it will flex if i push in the middle section of the board, possibly with less force than i'd prefer but what's most important to me is the feeling when i'm typing so i haven't noticed it in the slightest.

Heh. Of course there is. :P
Look around you at all the plastics/polymers you interact with daily. They all serve slightly different purposes and have different physical properties. Some are harder, some are more brittle, different wear-resistance, etc. Plastics aren't just "plastic".
Now, I don't work with acrylics and polycarbonates, so I'm not intimately familiar with their properties, but I can assure you they are quite different. :P

Yeah the "thocking" sound might also be due to the keycaps.
Oh wells, might mod the switches back to tactile or clicky. or get a new 60% ;D decisions..

I just cannot use that small 1.25u shift key in commercial ISO keyboards. I even gave it a try, but no; I just, do not like it.

a little bit of Gaterons up on the Mobik and Nerd60 :)Show Image(https://c1.staticflickr.com/1/739/21612810475_97d0c6d798_b.jpg)Show Image(https://c1.staticflickr.com/1/742/21612803185_a0d2bd7548_b.jpg)
that mobik is sexy!
wonder how it would look with gmk hyperfuse...
that, we'll probably never know until someone else gets a build like that, such keysets are way to pricey for my priorities :P

feng's GMK cyan GB set on my GON. :)That is a beautiful GON combing Cyan set!Show Image(http://i.imgur.com/zALq4G4.jpg)

Looks like Triumph Adler to me.
my pics are dark and colors don't come out well with my poopy camera, but these are a light cyan. triumph adler is darker with two different shades of blue, and the mods have a lot more green and blue to them.
personally, i like this cyan set much more than triumph adler.

With some luck GON may tell you if he can sell the top place as a stand alone item. I suppose his manufacturer can produce one, with no bottom.

i´ve talked to him about a hhkb poker style plate option recently, nothing he's able to do with the current orderflow, you'll probably be better off getting one cut and anodized on your own, most likely ending up at around the $100 mark.

Has anyone here seen any GON boards where people have mixed and matched different coloured tops and lowers?

I would do orange. I had an orange plated GON and chose purple LEDs; I loved the way it looked.

I felt like the purple plate was limiting my options enough to settle for orange. But yeah, I like the idea of sip sockets myself and would probably use them in a future build.
Yep. I never thought of that option of LED. Now I need to re-think my build. :thumb:

All I have is a cell phone camera so it'd be garbage. I hate to say it but I think the GMK ABS sounds better than the pitch black Ivan PBT set that used to be on here (also scoops not bars which is always nice :p). Sounds way softer than with pbt caps. I only bottom out a bit so most of the sound is upstroke noise.
Also lubed 78g gateron clears so no click.

Hah, I can relate to ABS sounding better than PBT. I think it also has kind of a "warmer" feel compared to PBT because it's a softer material and more malleable, I guess. It sounds a little ridiculous to say, but I always get that feeling when I compare the two types. PBT is nice though, still. I still need to try POM sometime.
Ahh, HHKB layouts are so sick. :D

How does a GON case like that differ to the WKL.kr HHKB case? (Which costs ~$40)The middle layer is Polycarb, that can be only be CNC machined. Top and bottom are anodised alu, also CNC machined. This is why the price is higher than a winkeyless.kr one. It's just something else, even if from the outside they look the same they are not.

Yeah, the kind of machining that goes into it is what raises the price, and also the thicker plate that's used for the switches which requires more machining to set notches for the retaining tabs, then the countersunk screw-mounting positions and the aluminum feet mounting holes.
Poly is apparently hard to machine as well. I've taken a dremel to PC to make inserts for my Duck Lightpad, though. :P And that turned out nice! (http://imgur.com/a/Zubqq) Nah, I know it can't be compared. It was also hell to do by hand, haha.
You can certainly see the quality in GON's machine work, but for it to rival the price of heavy aluminum cases is still kind of crazy to me.

It's weird I know, but the amount of machining is almost the same and I think Polycarbonate is almost as expensive as alu. But I think it's the psychological factor, one is "plastic" the other one is "heavy metal" :cool:
Hmm, I have no idea on the prices! I got my tinted 1/4" polycarbonate sheets for a pretty cheap price (each were wide enough to cover a 60% size, since I originally planned on making my own middle layer for hwood's sandwich-style carbon fiber cases). I think around $4 or so? It was from a quality manufacturer of lexan. :)
But I dunno! I definitely agree that there's a psychological component with the weight and solidity of a heavy aluminum case vs "plastic," though I do think highly of the acrylic 60% cases I've seen (like the one run in a GB by Dulphin), but they are usually pretty cheap! I'm not sure what a full poly case would cost in comparison. :-X

I like that case a lot, but one hundred and eighty dollars for a case? that is what a full set of the fox costs.
Not gonna lie, GON's cases are really, really overpriced for what they are.
They look very cool, but, still, a couple of aluminum plates with a poly-carbonate separator should be better priced.

The design and thought that goes into GON's cases is what makes them worth it, IMO. Similar plate-cases don't seem to have the same attention to detail that GON has (switch notches cut into plate, etc). Sure, they don't weigh a ton, but they're really well designed and built.

Def true. GON definitely outclasses all other contenders when it comes sandwich style cases in terms of quality and attention to detail, no doubt.

thanks, hoff. :) haha i change caps for both my home and work boards pretty regularly, since it's like getting a brand new board every time! my coworkers think i'm a bit odd with this stuff. i nudged a couple of them into getting mech boards, but they bought their QFRs and were pretty much done after that. oh well. :)

Now I have realized that the Irish set has US International Legends, damn that's sweet :o I'm a big time user of this layout.
Exactly, it does have the US International character set. I use it every day, and I can tell there is not actual need for the alternate legends to be actually printed; I know exactly where they are, at least the ones I use more frequently, but they look cool. In the other hand, as I prefer double shot Cherry caps I would never get a set like this, unfortunately.

Post above yours indicates that the shipping time was pretty fast. Also he probably has contact info for you.

Just assume 5 months if unassembled or longer if assembled and minimal communication. If those are your expectations you won't be disappointed.x-post :-[Show Image(https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1444/24343798360_80d9c946ec_k.jpg)

Finally after what seems like for ever I bit the bullet and ordered parts to build my own, Gon was easy to talk to and helped me me out with what LEDs to buy
was super fast shipping as wellShow Image(http://i.imgur.com/F3vR45N.jpg)
Purple is my favorite color and this doesn't disappoint.

I was deciding whether or not to get a GON NS or just settle for the acrylic cheaper one but after seeing yours I know I'm going to get the NS. I'm gonna do pretty much the same color scheme as YongJK did because I got the EVA Notilucous keyset a while back.

Thanks to E3E for swapping the silver GON feet with me and HoffmanMyster for explaining the possible layouts I can do with GON's plate.
This board was originally in a standard 87 winkey layout and I reassembled it to a 86 winkey layout.

Not my board but I own a GON as well.
I used the standard 87 layout but I feel the 86 is nice aesthetically but since GON's NerD UI is so flexible you can literally assign anything to any keys.
The extra key at the bottom row for the 87 layout by default just toggles it to the 2nd layer.
I might change mine to the 86 layout as well but not anytime soon. :)

Wooden table belongs to a local antique shop and shop owner was quite surprised when I asked them if I could take some photos of it with my keyboard. :))

Thanks! Most of it was for the appearance since not having that extra FN key does not really bother me. :p It is just visually more pleasant to me.
But it did take a lot of work for getting rid of that one key as I have to desolder everything and assemable them again. :-X
That looks SO good, man!

Have you received your space bar yet? I was going to ask you about it just in case it gets lost on the way.

Yes! I thought I mentioned that, but it was probably another case of me "writing something in my mind" as opposed to actually having written it down, haha.
Yep, it came in! I still have yet to do a stem conversion to make it ready for my Alps board, but when I do, then I'll have a full set of PBT caps just waiting for it. I'm excited!
Haha thats sort of hilarious. I bought a GON, had 1 set of blue feet and 1 silver. I sold the silver ones to E3E and then the GON with the blue feet to Icyskyz.
The keyboard looks wonderful Icyskyz, hope you are enjoying it.
Haha, yep! I thought it was really funny how we all ended up crossing paths like that and, at least for icy and I, ended up with our original choice in color for the aluminum feet.
Too perfect. :))

thanks, guys! :) to be fair, this set seems to be pretty difficult to take pics of. i had to do some editing to make it so that the bright cyan didn't look too terribly saturated and washed out. the set looks great in person though.
Nice put the white on black on too :) !!
haha i will do those soon too. thanks man for helping me out with those. :-*

I ordered the purplish pink ones and they came out more towards magenta. But it's nice though, although I don't switch them on a daily basis. Too pinkish/bright. @_@

i love pink though. :) i can see what you mean about bright though. I have my side LEDs and caps lock tied to scroll lock and toggle them based on my mood.
I never turn on the rest of the switch LEDs anymore because of the brightness, and also because it's harder to see the color of the keyset.

Yup! I should explore the NerD UI more.. Seems like they're more features that might be useful.

Is GON vendor forum has no longer exist? I buy some spring but almost a month still preparation in progress while he promised to deliver it immediately after my payment received.
GON has an artisan subforum. (https://geekhack.org/index.php?board=148.0) He is not a vendor.
