I'd be in for a 12 set of DyeSubs! I want electrical danger

YUUUP! In for one set.

DanGWanG · « **Reply #52 on:** Sun, 30 September 2012, 13:42:35 »

In for 1 set

fl0w3n · « **Reply #53 on:** Sun, 30 September 2012, 13:56:26 »

Sorry if it's been mentioned, but what's our price estimate for the set? Depending on price, I'd be in...

Also, I think the keys look good in Yellow as you designed, with just the symbols on them. However, the one Lysol posted looks better in that Orange vs the Yellow.

RickyJ · « **Reply #54 on:** Sun, 30 September 2012, 13:56:33 »

Current pricing is looking to be around $2 per cap for production so that will make the total price $24US for the 12-key set.

I think that's quite reasonable. Let me know if you're in for a set!

Sorry I forgot to write a post here regarding updates.

I've spoken to i3oileramaker and he said he should have prototypes within the next 1-2 weeks.

However the set will be sold from techkeys.us as this will help manage orders because there will be no money collection then commission to have the keys made etc.

Sign up at techkeys.us so that you'll be notified of when the set is available.

mithinza · « **Reply #67 on:** Mon, 01 October 2012, 05:00:53 »

Interested. I'm in for 1 set.

TheSoulhunter · « **Reply #68 on:** Mon, 01 October 2012, 08:52:01 »

In for 1 or 2 sets...

Internetlad · « **Reply #69 on:** Mon, 01 October 2012, 14:25:17 »

$24 isn't a dealbreaker, if we could get it under 20 i'd be peachy.

Let me check my Paypal and i'm in for one.

EDIT: got plenty in PP, In for one, let me know when I need to pay.

IvanIvanovich · « **Reply #70 on:** Mon, 01 October 2012, 14:37:29 »

Ok, so qtan is making these, what profile? if it's OEM profile I am out.

i3oilermaker · « **Reply #71 on:** Mon, 01 October 2012, 14:49:56 »

They will be Thick PBT (SP/Cherry Profile)

IvanIvanovich · « **Reply #72 on:** Mon, 01 October 2012, 14:52:03 »

Perfect.

Computer-Lab in Basement · « **Reply #73 on:** Mon, 01 October 2012, 14:52:19 »

Oh what the hell, they look interesting enough... I'm in for a set!

Internauta · « **Reply #74 on:** Mon, 01 October 2012, 15:43:11 »

It would be awesome if you could maybe get it to $20. Although I know that mainly depends on quantity ordered.

Scirocco · « **Reply #75 on:** Mon, 01 October 2012, 20:13:52 »

I'd definitely buy a couple of sets. Bookmarked the site too.

mushupork · « **Reply #76 on:** Mon, 01 October 2012, 21:43:06 »

This idea rocks - count me in for a set!

mushupork · « **Reply #77 on:** Mon, 01 October 2012, 22:00:48 »

Here's a fun site that is sort of related because of the symbols ... http://www.warninglabelgenerator.com/

The gas mask symbol is funny, I like the image of the gears crushing fingers for a keycap especially. I like the slippery surface images too.

Internetlad · « **Reply #78 on:** Mon, 01 October 2012, 22:18:33 »

+1 for fingers in gears.

my least favorites are the ! (too generic) the X (ditto) and the magnet.

Even the magnet could stay if the ! or X got swapped. I'm sure there are better symbols. Maybe put the ! in a triangle, or swap em for fragile (the broken wine glass) or slipping hazard (always popular) or even non-ionising radiation ( http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/8a/Radio_waves_hazard_symbol.svg/220px-Radio_waves_hazard_symbol.svg.png )

agree/disagree?

Kaysa · « **Reply #79 on:** Mon, 01 October 2012, 22:54:17 »

any chance to make a Topre set?

danielucf · « **Reply #80 on:** Mon, 01 October 2012, 23:01:57 »

So you can get thick PBTs in almost any color through Qtan?

Lu_e · « **Reply #81 on:** Mon, 01 October 2012, 23:55:38 »

In for a set! kinda goes with the Breaking Bad theme.

Mayor Winters · « **Reply #82 on:** Tue, 02 October 2012, 01:30:48 »

In for a set for sure!!

tinlong117 · « **Reply #83 on:** Tue, 02 October 2012, 04:17:21 »

Nice one. Can't wait for it to happen soon.

dorkvader · « **Reply #85 on:** Tue, 02 October 2012, 23:11:50 »

Yeah, I've always been a fan of this one:

I do like the magnet, but if we dropped the bang and the X for something better, I wouldn't mind

Lol...... I love that one as well. It's usually on Manufacturing Machinery which I've seen. Some areas that will literally rip your arms out if your hands get caught.

That would be seriously cool if chosen.

GeorgeK · « **Reply #87 on:** Wed, 03 October 2012, 05:04:56 »

Apologies if this has been answered and I've missed this but are these going to be doubleshot? Also, from the 1st post update am I right in thinking that interest registered here is not really needed since they'll simply be listed on techkeys?

Yeah I did consider putting that one in but decided against it because of how detailed it is. I don't think the final cap would come out as nice looking.

These key caps will be dyesub-ed so it's still quite a good quality. Yes, the caps will be on techkeys so there's not whole lot of need for the expression of interest.

Awesome - I suppose dyesub will work well with black on yellow. Also awesome that they'll be on techkeys - will they be cheaper here though? (Poker mods were $5ish per set here and $12 per set there for example)

i3oilermaker · « **Reply #90 on:** Wed, 03 October 2012, 08:55:50 »

Dye subs are more expensive than double shots since you don't get much of a price break for bulk orders. I still think the set will be reasonable when all is said and done.

GeorgeK · « **Reply #91 on:** Wed, 03 October 2012, 09:09:01 »

Cool - I'm signed up to the 'new keys' email so I'll keep a look out

Cheers mate

Just had a thought.

What row/profile will these fit. I was planning on using them for F1-F12. Is that suitable?

They will be top row so they will fit on the Esc/F1-F12 row or the Number Row.

I'm pretty sure it's totally doable as dyesub. Can't hurt to run it by Melissa, anyway.
