[IC] SP-SA Carbon Round 2

[simonyunhe]

Update.
...
Mod extension kit
New kit which includes all the alternate color keys, stepped keys, led windowed keys and WKL keys. I personaly think that this kit is also very interessting for round1 participants, ince its has all the alternate color keys.

Thanks for the updates!  ;D
Just notice the 1.75u Shift and 1u Fn is not included in this kit.

1.75u shift appears to be in the base modifiers kit but I can't find 1u fn anywhere either.

There is a 1u row 4 "Func" key included in the modifiers kit.

You are correct. I missed it there on the bottom. Small phone screens make it tough  :-\

1.75u shift is part of modifiers kit. And there is no way i will repeat that spcific kit from round1. So if you miss that spcific 1.75u key, than sell your round1 base kit (on mechmarket) and get the round 2 alphas with modifiers kit.
I also dont want to make to many specific kits. I want to make it easy and cheap for the buyers.

This is bad news for cops. BL82 needed R2 "page up" and R3 "page down". If possible could we please have those added to the exotic kit along with the R4 "`~" and R4 "end"? That way anyone else who still needs "page up" and "page down" in those rows can get them from the exotic kit.

This is not a problem i'll add these missing keys to exotic kit.

I think you're making a good choice.  I much prefer having larger kits offering more coverage compared to buying 5 little kits or so to cover a specific board, even if I have to spend a few more dollars.  Inevitably I will want to move the set to something else, and if I only bought a few little kits, there's a good chance I wouldn't have coverage!

Exactly. Its better to have "future safe" more layout covarages. Else by moving this set from one layout to another you will sell your kidney first and then aquire the spcific kit on mechmarket. Also most of the time people on mechmarket sell sets as complete packeage and never in kits.

Any chance for a 1u R4 "END" or did I miss seeing it?

Ok this is a lie :) I (slept a night over it ) did following update:

Modifiers kit
Just tkl with default colorway. Not less not more. Main point here is the affordability. Everybody should be able to afford it.


Modifiers extension kit
Contains all the keys which modifiers kit contained previously. If you consider getting some time later an non tkl layout keyboard then get this kit. I do not guaranty any compability between the rounds. Its just impossible. If you miss some kits its your problem. Nobody is to blame here except for yourself. Just that simple.
 - Added row 4 1.25u "CTRL" keys. (for those who appreciate short version)


Exotic kit
- Added row 2 1u "PAGE UP" key
- Added row 3 1u "PAGE DOWN" key

Any chance for a 1u R4 "END" or did I miss seeing it?

Its missing. I will add it with the next update to Modifiers extension kit.

[theillumedpanda]

Looks great, but please bring it to GB phase! Just kidding, take your time to improve and do what you want to do. In the meantime, I'm eagerly waiting for that keyset to drop.

[kawasaki161]

I would have preferred the big, all-in-one modkit (mainly because that would probably be cheaper for people that only need that 1.75u shift), but I can understand why you chose to split it. (Though a huge all-in-one pack like with GMK Carbon would still be something I'd prefer)

I've got a bad feeling that just the alphas and normal mods will be ~15-25 bucks more than the Dasher/Dancer TKL kit, mainly because they are split into two kits. I hope you can prove me wrong though!

[richard912]

Yay!! Am definitely in for a TKL set with mod extension kit but could I bother you to also include a R1 1u "DELETE" too?

[Oblotzky]

Hm yeah, I remember Del/End/PgDn being there as R1 in the old version of the modifier kit, would be dope to have for 96key and such.

I prefer that too. But i think most of the buyers will want just the tkl version for few bucks and being just happy. However i dont want to hesitate ergodox and 40% people buying tkl version they dont need. If they need that they'll get also the modifiers kit. Thats it. For people who are more deeply involved into keyboard hobby i will highly suggest getting mod extension. Getting it second hand will be very difficult.

In case of pricing you should not bother much. Here is moq and pricing list of amazing chocolatier, which took similar approach splitting alphas and mods:

I'll definitely look into that. Just give some time.

[midnight2903]

Just so I can save up enough for this buy, how much do you expect the set to cost?

[T0mb3ry]

Update.
Flex kit
Its different but it may attract bone modifiers buyers. And i think you will be able to make soem interessting combos with it. Anyway i am open to repeat the old flex kit. However i think its the numbers which makes this kit and in that case the new kit is superior.


Mac kit

Just so I can save up enough for this buy, how much do you expect the set to cost?

Looking at chocolatier i think around 70$ (without shipping, fees and taxes) for tkl (alphas + modifiers kit). Hoard some more money just in case... Keep in mind this is just my assumption and things might come different...

[dsaf]

...And i think you will be able to make some interesting combos with it...

That's true:

[EriG]

Just register this id to let you know i am in. Nice work!

[T0mb3ry]

Update.

Bone Modifiers
- Visualized front print on led windowed keys.
- Added stepped "CONTROL" key.

DC kit

Modifiers extension kit

Any chance of a space bar 6u?

Just made an account to say that an image of an SA Carbon keycaps got me too look into this community! Dankeschön!!

So I'm really looking forward to join into my first keycaps GB!

The mold does not exist, but there seems to be one in the works. Let's see how that plays out

[T0mb3ry]

*NEW*
Rolling bones
In case of naming: In my mother language dices (in a slang language) are called bones. Because they are usually beige like bones. So thats the naming comes from.
As you can see it has a dice theme but also can feature other luck or strategic based games. This kit is still in the works, so nothing is set in stone bone.

so ntohing is set in stone bone.

FTFY

btw also a spell in WoW http://www.wowhead.com/spell=193316/roll-the-bones I think it's quite common

[Terceler]

Yeah pretty common to refer to both dice and domino pieces (which 7-9 resemble) as "bones" I think.

Probably comes from the fact typically were carved from animal bones historically.

[ghostdeini]

Haven't popped by in a while, but thank you for changing to CTRL! The dice idea is pretty neat, so this set isn't necessarily strictly "science" themed. Sorta like how troubled minds could either be for Joker or EVA, just by switching the novelties!

[Bob]

Wow you've been busy! The kits are really looking close to done, and coming along very nicely. Thank you for all your efforts to accommodate so many different layouts in full sculpted profile; it's a lot of work and is very much appreciated!

There's just one key left to add to the exotic kit for full cop keyboard support (excluding the mythical 6U spacebar)
- Orange on grey 1 unit R4 `~

With that R4 tilde key added, I'll be in for mods, mods extension, exotic, orange alphas, and warning signs. It'll probably cost a pretty penny but I have a feeling another set to fit the BL82 will never come along, especially not one that looks this good!

For the R1 keys there, they could almost be used as number row... maybe include a single blank to act as 0 in that case?

[hoq]

Since the Planck/Atomic kit is gone,
I really hope R4 2u white novelty key can be found somewhere.

It's not gone - check the first post for the complete list of currently proposed kits.

[breusch91]

Noticed theres currently no way to run the same colored F1-F12 keys as there used to be.  Ol(R1) Flex kit used to include these to make that viable. Not sure if that was just overlooked, or youre just working on it (i understand its very early still so no rush), just dropping by to let you know in case that was something that was just forgotten.

Take a closer look at the modifiers extension kit, you'll find orange on grey F5 to F8 there

[T0mb3ry]

Update.

Rolling bones
- Added "domino" keys
- Added scooped 5 as its supposed to be placed on numblock.
- Added 1.25u and 1.5u modifiers.
- Added 1.75u row 3 tab "777" key.
- Added Ansi Enter with a skull. This key is subject to change. I want seven skulls just need to figure out how to realize it. And i will probably.
- Added ISO Enter tripple seven skull. Top dices are 7, the skull has seven mark and bottom dices have seven too. ISO makes more sense now
- Added Ø keys as NULL keys. Hope nordic speaking people dont get angry about that.

rip another 40 bucks

[SakeJams]

Definitely in

[Jhors2]

I'm in for this as well.

[ChitownM2]

I'm going to end up dropping a fortune on this. Going to end up with one of everything....

[johnthedong]

RIP my wallet, I hate you. 

[dead_pixel_design]

Any chance for 2 and 2.75 blanks, maybe on the exotic kit?

[daijizai]

Any chance for an orange Dvorak/Colemak kit?

Heavily considering it. However i need to think about moq. It may not tip since the buyers will be splitted. Thus you need to understand why i dont introduce too many choices. With too many choices, kits will not tip and you are left with nothing.

Hell, if the drop points are near the chocolatier I'll take us a quarter way there ;-). Probably will need about 6 sets of orange alphas personally, and If I need to in order to make sure it pops I'd probably be willing to commit to twice that (and hope to make it back on secondary market). That means it might just take one more weirdo like me!

[Oblotzky]

It does help the creator field community buy in and get feedback though, and help inform demand to an extent

NORDEUK kit

- Changed "ALT GR" to "ALT GRAPH"


Rolling bones
- Added dice to Ansi enter

Maybe I'm missing something, but why is there an R3 1.25u caps lock?  The common scenario is to swap caps lock with left control, which is an R4 key on normal keyboards.  Shouldn't there (or could there ) be an R4 caps lock?

There is no r3 1.25 u caps lock. The same counts for r4....

Btw. check the name of the kit.
