Just ordered the TKL set with red number row. Wonder how that would look..
I wish we had renders of various kit combos together on a keyboard. This is some expensive stuff.
wow if you try to get red/black combo for 104 board you'll end up paying $200 or more yikes!!!

If I get the TKL kit, can I also use it for Poker? It looks to be compatible. Doesn't make sense for me to also get a SIXTY.

Oddly enough, my several honeywell keyboards have a different colour scheme. Fortunately it's already been done on one (coffee/cream is a lot like retro dsa) and the other's ugly. Then again, my honeywell keyboards are at least 8 years older than the one this is modeled after.
This looks very well organized: I hope it'll take less time than R4 did, and I'm glad Dvorak is again an option. I'll have to decide what keyboard I want these on: a normal TKL or a lightsaver.
Really like this set, and I've yet to try DSA... just can't got back to ABS.
This buy is SA profile, not DSA. SA caps are very thick.

Would you actually believe some idiot clowns here on Geekhack were saying that the SA Profile was thin-walled.......really ::) .
They themselves seem to like stating those ignorant comments on this forum as facts, yet have never produced any pics proving their ridiculous claims.
YES, SA profile produced by SP is the only profile worth getting due to their larger than life wall thickness compared to all of their DCS and DSA profiles.

I wasn't part of R4. What happened?
R4 = R2 upside down
well, but they've nearly convinced me, Qaz. Except for how it is that I'm broke. A Dvorak kit, a brilliant red enter all by itself ... I'm deeply tempted.
Damn... This is so close to being exactly what I need: http://deskthority.net/wiki/File:HONEY_TKL_BLANK.pngI am sure you can order one from SP, but halvar is right: this will likely be added if there is a need
Unfortunately I need two 1.75 center mount grey mods and this only has one. I can't even buy a single blank one... :(
I am really interested by this one, but I am leary because of how long R4 took.
Keep in mind though that, unlike in the picture, the new kbdrunner key will be SA profile.

I like that "Leary" but don't worry. 7bit has learned from R4 in what NOT to do. That is why he's going to finish this GB towards the end of this month. Then Early next year SP will make it.
Because this GB doesn't have hundreds of choices/colours like what R4 had, hence it'll get made sooner.

By my understanding it may extend if he doesn't hit MOQ (25000 keys)
Oh so this might take a while then.....

They would probably have to improve the thickness of their caps to be able to compete if they did that. Especially since the GMK/BSP group buys have a lot of interest now days...

Not sure if you have seen an SA-profile spherical cap from SP, but they are every bit as thick as caps from GMK/BSP, if not thicker.
That's what those Round 5 caps are, SA. Not DSA or DCS. I don't think you're the only one confused about that.

For anyone who's confused about the caps, this is a shot of the thicknesses. The caps from left to right? SP DCS (It's a R2 420 Smiley so yes it's DCS, I bought it from TechKeys), GMK Cherry (Olivetti Replica), SP DSA (DSA Retro GeekHack cap), SP SA (R4 Home, from a crap bag). Note how the SA cap is stepped so it's *really* thick.Show Image(http://i.imgur.com/Uz0Tp1M.jpg)Show Image(http://i.imgur.com/VJ1Tf7O.jpg)
Great picture, thanks for posting.The radius of curvature looks larger for these SA and DSA keycaps than filco OEM and DCS, more importantly, they are spherical rather than cylindrical, so they'll feel different no matter what.
From it, it seems that DSA and SA are the least concave (more flat than the others). Is that what you feel when you type on them?
It seems like there is no option for red mods :(
How much is shipping usually for a standard kit and a few space bars?
There's already a red TKL and a black TKL. Red return and red cursor kit. Isn't that enough mod kit then?It seems like there is no option for red mods :(
I've been asking for them. 7bit is reluctant, because he never meant to have two competing colorways for full sets. He'd trying to keep from making it as complicated and looooooong as Round 4.

Waiting for the GB！
I also thought that the GB will run till end of the month. It's just that if you ordered by today, which is the birthday of 7bit, you get a 5% rebate.So, not so much of a savings. I only want about $29 worth, and could trim that, too. A red shift, a blue backspace, and the Dvorak kit.
7bit said tomorrow he will close GB for R5, and spend 2 weeks for collecting payment. But i hope he can change his mind >.<Erhem:
So, anybody want to order please join quickly
I lost 408$ for R5 :(
We're at 75% of MOQ now. 8)

Haha yeah nothing terribly original about my layout. Steal away Elrick! :D
it looks good, but i have heard that makingt the set will last a long long time
Simply Amazing! It's going to take me a week just to figure out which options I want (gotta hurry EOM deadline).
This will prolly be my first GB.
I know it will not work with HHKB for sure because it's a different switch.
commando looks to be SA done right from the pictures
"The set will have the row profile like this
Esc row - ROW1
~ 1 2 3 row - ROW2
Tab row - ROW3
Caps row - ROW3
Shift row - ROW3
Ctrl row - ROW4"
If that's true, it's disappointing that Round5 doesn't follow the improved more ergonomic layout Jil_jil did and that I think Penumbra will follow.
We had a poll about the F1-F12 function row and most wanted it row 1 instead of row 3:Thanks very much for the reply! It makes sense how you did it, and I am again impressed with your tendency to include many options. Perhaps I'll get some row three function keys as well.Show Image(http://deskthority.net/w/images/f/f1/HONEY_rows.png)
If there are enough orders overall, I might add F1-F24 all in row 3, plus numpad in all row 3.
There are 2 function kits (HONEY/FUNCTION/R3 and HONEY/FUNCTION7) which consist of row 3 function keys.
BTW: The Standard kit of the 23 Command group buy was $68.40, while HONEY/TKL+HONEY/SPACE625 is only $69.68 including shipping worldwide and PayPal fees!
Heh yeah my first order was > $300. Cut it down to $150 or so. :D

If I knew the wife wouldn't kill me I'd get everything :eek:
I can't take that too serious. There's quite a bit of DT mocking on GH, too. With 7bit, there's probably some history behind that from way before my time, I couldn't care less about that.
To pick a side in any of this because I like one of the forums better would be silly.I really like your attitude though. If only more users thought the same!
Does the Sixty pack come with a 1.75 unit shift? I think it does, but I'm worrying because orders are closing D:
I did the math and instead of getting a 60% kit, I got the $59 TKL kit and added the 1.75 shift and a lotus for the Fn key as well as a couple other single keys. Unless you are buying the 60% for additional keys, it is probably cheaper to just get the cheapest TKL kit and add a few keys...This is the layout I'm wanting:
I think I kept it realistic. In the ballpark of $150 I think. I got one set which will work for any config of 60%, 75% or TKL and I also got a 40% set because, well, it was there and is so perty... Now I just need to get a 40% board. Haha...
Suddenly I realize that I am spending $250 on a single keyset. That's the same amount I spent on my Typenow Solid. I don't need them that badly.
CLEARALL
I was ordering the basic Honeywell color scheme with enough keys to cover most any ANSI keyboard layout.
40% WAY too small. I'm a TKL man, as evidenced by my collection. :p
I put them in both Poker (60%) and TKL and I liked them in TKL more.
I put them in both Poker (60%) and TKL and I liked them in TKL more.
Umm the SA Profile is meant for the larger layouts, 87 and 104 keyboards. Try stuffing them into a 40% or 60% is like stuffing an elephant into a négligé, just not sexy at all.
I am also not sure if SPH will work for me and I gambled by getting the R4, R5 and Penumbra.
The R4 came just a couple of days ago and they are beautiful.

Something about high profile and packing them into a 60% board that just doesn't look good.Show Image(http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/12/04/6uja4agu.jpg)Show Image(http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/12/04/mu6eqa9u.jpg)
I wish too.. and so I bought it off someone else. I think there are bound to be people wanting to sell them, so watch out for the classifieds.
I asked in the Simple Questions Simple Answers thread, but perhaps it wasn't so simple as I got no reply. Are SA caps sufficiently different from OEM/DCS/Cherry that they require a learning curve in terms of typing accuracy/comfort? I imagine they won't be as different as DSA, which was dramatically different, and I had a very difficult time with it (to the point where I sold my DSA Retro kit after a week of owning it). But like, other than the height, would it be more or less straightforward to type on SA caps after a day or two? In the standard SA layout that is--I imagine the 23 Commando layout will be a bit more like DSA with the flat profile in the center.

I replied (http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=40501.msg1143060#msg1143060) but it was a bit delayed since I was AFK for Thanksgiving. Seems like people who has tried/used SA are limited though since SA wasn't as popular as it seems to be now.
SA keycaps are definitely tall, but I actually like the tall profile better than DSA short profile. DSA just seems flat to me, and like you described, my fingers reach for a key and it's not there, until I reach more.
I tried my SA set on my Filco with blacks on TypeRacer, and my speed was about the same as with DCS profile caps (~55WPM).

They are really dark brown. But you can tell they aren't black, depending on lighting, of course. :)
Question:HONEY/BLACK/TKL is the same as the new Filco SPH, right? Looks like it.
7bit:No it is not. They use row 3 for most of the keys and row 2 for Function and number row. Also, they glue their stabiliser inserts into the keys, so they are not useful on keyboard that do not have Filco stablisers.I found the post actually.. Here's what 7bit posted.
:mad:
There is one more thing: Their text placement is off-center.
:shock:
In other words: Just forget about them!
I've yet to see anything that says I have credit, even though I paid a few dollars more than what the current total is. It's confusing, because there are reports of people saying that they have some "credit". Makes me wonder if my payment was registered at all, because I just get invoices with the total. Up to five now (though I did swap 1 cap yesterday, so that'd be where the 5th one came from).

Aaaand there goes all my money.
I find that it is just taking too long and am wondering if I could cancel, get the refund, and channel the money to get a Silver Brobot instead. As it is, I already have too many key caps set as well. Have anyone got the refund? Is it in days after cancellation?

New deadline is 28 February 2014.
...but I have no idea what the new 50% in the titles represents now.
Is he expecting us to double our current orders?!? :o
Quote from: Belfong50%???Nobody. I've lowered the prices, so the percentage went down, because the costs stay the same.
Who the hell CLEARALL-ed?
:-)
Maybe I'm just not used to such long group buy but I've given up waiting. I wish I could clearall myself, get a refund and buy silver Brobot! Ha ha!
the new % is related to the new white kits (when it reaches 100% you can hope in a price drop for those kits)
Feb 28 deadline is based on SP schedule and it's not 7bit's fault.
7bit GBs seem always to take some time, but there's no problem with updates and communication, so it's fine by me.
Changed deadline again, time to file paypal dispute. Fool me twice...

Will these caps work well with a ergodox? Different row profiles make me unsure.
That's true. I admit I enjoyed the initial phase of configuring the caps, tweaking and making requests. It's really fun and I'm glad that I'm in. But then it gets bigger and bigger and bigger and I'm totally lost. There's like 4-5 sets in there at this moment. This must be the biggest GB ever!
Just want to remind everybody that the deadline is in about 8 days (28th February).
I intend to send the order on the following Monday. So, please send your orders and money in time. There will be some additional kits ordered, but some might be sold out shortly after the deadline.

*maybeExactly.
Is anyone else getting the tracking and insurance options? Can someone with more experience with 7bits GB's let me know if they would recommend it? For me, it's an additional $58 for insurance and tracking. Worth it? We're talking about two pounds worth of keycaps.

For me, it's an additional $58 for insurance and tracking. Worth it? We're talking about two pounds worth of keycaps.Even if you leave 7-bit out of the equation: You got an order of probably about $200-$250 and you think about spending $58 for insurance? If I calculate right, there would have to be a probability of about 1/4 of your parcel getting lost for that to be worth it. I don't think the risk is anywhere near that.
i am not getting it. i have a set of his Round 4 SA/SPH Space Cadet keycaps too. I am getting quite a few caps on this buy too and skipping all that extra expense.
We collect PayPal money again!
:o
7 days to go!
:-)
tomorrow (2014-03-07) will be the last day when you can change your paid order!
If you want to jump off, send CLEARALL to 7bot.
If you want a refund, send REFUND to 7bot.
If you paid, but your money is still on its way, please let 7bit know!
Totally unpaid orders will be cleared, half-ways paid orders are cut down!
Your order is safe if
you paid at least 90%, or
only up to $5 are missing,
you only ordered less than 7 days before the deadline, or
you tell me that your money is on the way!

I'm actually freaking excited to get my hands on these. Love this colorway, and interested to try SA profile. :thumb:

Me too! I love the fact that we could mix n match everything and create our own setups. Must be an organizational nightmare, haha.
And yes, I've never tried SA profile and am looking forward to it. In the worst case that I don't like SA, I'm gonna just put a keyboard on a shelf or wall for display since the keys will still look beautiful!
These are the layouts I planned out. So much fun!Show Image(http://i.imgur.com/4S5a8z0.png)Show Image(http://i.imgur.com/6Sd4Iei.png)

Those are going to look great!
i just went full plain ole HONEY (white/grey) Ten key configuration with HHKB and ErgoDox add on kits. I was tempted to try different combinations with red and black and grey but i'd just be further putting myself into debt.
I posted my layout couple of pages back, but since it's come up again I'll repost. :DShow Image(http://i.imgur.com/KorTdHn.png)

Can't wait to get all mine coming through, I think I'll need some extra keyboards here, which is getting harder to find any spare willing to take these beauties.
Haha, yes I've been collecting too many keysets. I'll need to get more boards just to host them... what a crazy hobby.
That's gonna look good! I think these colorways will probably look best with white cases. Be sure to post pics of the real thing when you get them. :)

Orders are locked, key caps are ordered, production will soon begin!
But:
There are still some kits availbale:
R5 leftovers (http://deskthority.net/wiki/R5_leftovers).
:o
@7-bit: Has production started on this yet?This is Round 5 left overs actually.
Orders are locked, key caps are ordered, production will soon begin!
ahhh. i figured he just ordered a bunch of extra kits to meet MOQ and hopes to sell the pieces as the sets are shipped out. i guess i was wrong. wouldnt be the first time.Orders are locked, key caps are ordered, production will soon begin!
My interpretation of this is that the order has been placed with SP and that it is on their production schedule. So it should just be a matter of weeks now before the finished keys are shipped to 7bit.
The "leftovers" listing is just 7bit getting a jump on the normal post-GB extras sale.
ahhh. i figured he just ordered a bunch of extra kits to meet MOQ and hopes to sell the pieces as the sets are shipped out. i guess i was wrong. wouldnt be the first time.This is what I thought too actually. Sorry if I made someone else confused... :blank:

No, I think you are exactly right. The order has been placed, and the numbers of each kit that will be produced are fixed. But he is preselling the extras that he added to round up to MOQ and whatever other balancing he has done.
SP got the orderlist and I'm waiting for their final invoice. Hopefully their production starts within the next 2 weeks.@7-bit: Has production started on this yet?This is Round 5 left overs actually.
7bit wrote on dt that he had to order at least 25 of each single key. That's where the "leftovers" come from.I just enter the figures from SP and a little script does the rest. If Melissa would send them as plain ASCII instead of a PDF-file, I could just feed the text list into it and had an even easier job.
7bit's price calculations must be an huge exercise in sophomore stochastics.
regardless we all have to admit that 7-bit is the man.

Either way he is awesome for organizing this epic gb.

IS it too late to get in on some of these leftovers? I know the deadline is earlier, but the Wikki was just updated today.
I guess it doesn't hurt to ask?

The order has been placed with SP though, right? That means that they are being or will shortly be produced and en route to 7bit. So there is now a real limit on what you can order and when.
We paid enough for production and I've asked her twice when they will start, but did not get an answer.

I now know that I love the SA profile, so I am pretty excited that I got 3 full sets of these. :)

Once you get bitten with SA you can't leave it alone ever :thumb: . Going back to DCS or even DSA is a crime in itself, because the absolute BEST profile ever made by SP is this. I know I've made a few DCS fanatics sad and alone with their anguish for ever buying that profile but I'm afraid that's how the ball bounces here on Geekhack.
SA is simply the BEST available from SP, enough said ^-^ .

If anyone is willing to part with enough keys to make a 40% or a 40% kit I've got $100 plus shipping get with your name on it! I bought the Smallfry kit and would need the keys for that, including the space bar just to be clear.
.
You mother trucker, don't you have enough of my money already? now you had to go and post this. :p
Is it possible to include(/save money on shipping) some keycaps from leftovers in Round 5a order (I need several small spacebars from previous round)Yes, it is the same group buy. To block shipping of your Round 5 order (kits that start with "HONEY/" or "SPH/") just order the HONEYB kit (for free!!!)
As someone who missed out on Round 5, Round 5a's looking good! But as someone who'd like to deck out an ErgoDox, am I out of options when it comes to modifiers?Just an ErgoDox kit with blanks, or with text?

I have been seriously out of touch with this GB. Can someone enlighten me please on the status? Why do I still see orders being taken, discount given, etc? I thought it's already in production? This must be the longest GB evar!Key caps are indeed still in production. SP is not that fast and it seems they stop production whenever there is a new small group buy started.
Because the Ergodox comes wiuth the ability to mount the switches ad 1 unit keys instead of 1.5, there should be no urgent need to add expensive 1.5 units keys of things like ?/ {[ and }].
I will make an ERGOMOD/RED kit that contains these keys:
vertical 2 units:
SHIFT
DEL
BACK,SPACE
FN or FUN
ENTER
vertical 1.5 units keys:
FN
FN
maybe something else?
I will add a kit with 1.5 units square, triangle, circle and diamond keys, that might be useful.

I've been trying to find an answer for this without having much luck. Since ErgoDox kits are a niche kit for an already niche product, they aren't exactly a huge volume seller. What happens if we build a complete set around one of these kits and the kit doesn't reach MOQ? Are we able to back out? Or are we committed to buying an incomplete set?The blank Ergo kits are no problem, as they require only 2 or 3 orders of each color to reach the 25 keys MOQ.
This worries me because Pulse, which is fairly popular, has fewer than 13 Halfadox kits committed with only the one color choice. If there's a MOQ on the ErgoDox sets in Round 5a, I'm not sure there's going to be enough demand since it looks like there are going to be legended/non-legended choices spread out among 6 different color choices.
Any chance of a vertical 2u Alt in that kit? Yes, I'm a weirdo. :-[Yes, ENTER is from the numpad.
We've already got lots of options for Shift as a single key. Maybe swap the Shift with Alt?
Is the vertical Enter you referenced earlier the one from the numpad operators kits?

The Ergo keys with legends on them (ie the vertical keys, except for ENTER) are only useful on trhe ErgoDox, so might not reach the MOQ in every color.
However, I will not lock down HONEYB orders right now, so you can always take something else if your color-scheme will not work out, or get a refund.
I added ALT for now.
Don't expect such a kit to be cheap.

AFAIK you gotta pay within 7 days. Rolling deadline though so it's up to you to risk it. :)
As far as I know all prices are final, there is no partial refund option for the bot. If it's not mentioned on the wiki page it does not exist.For the round 5a buy, do I have to pay the full amount right away? Or can I wait to see what the final price will be before sending payment?

hmm alright i'll pay it then. You know the 7bot command to get a refund of the difference of the final price, if it goes down?
This GB is almost a year old! Kinda ridiculous already but I'm surprised everyone is still so patient.
I've already considered this as a write off but I'm just amaze how supportive people have been. I'm not doubting 7bit's ability to deliver. Just finding it ridiculous that his Gb took so damn long and no end in sight!
Really? You really think so? All other GB - Penumbra, Bro set, Galaxy set, etc etc etc are all by Signature Plastics too.Yeah. With Penumbra, they keys are made. Just need time to sort.
(Disclosure: I've already received Penumbra months ago!)
With 7bit's Round 5, the keys are not even made after a year!
To be fair, this was mostly Signature Plastic's fault.
I suppose they would love to produce for 7bit because hey, he has TONS of orders right, compare to these smaller GBs. I am not buying it. But anyway, we should take this discussion over to Honey thread and not in this thread.
According to what 7bit has posted on DT, SP would stop production on R5 and do all the other smaller group buys in between.

I'm sorry to have to be the bearer of bad news but I don't expect us to
complete Round 5 until the end of January. We still have approximately 25%
(300 of 1200 items) left to produce. Unfortunately we have had other
requirements on this tooling and have had to continually interrupt your
order. Right now January's production schedule has no SA requirements so we
will be able to run uninterrupted through the month. Again, I apologize for
the ongoing delays.

If I ever order anything again, I want a fixed delivery date!
BTW: What he wants to tell us: If no mini-SA-family group buy starts right now, we might be lucky to get them by end of January (ie mid-February).

For those that don't go over to DT, I'm guessing pulse was the latest set to bump R5. :-\Quote from: 7bitQuote from: Bob@singatureplasticsHi 7bit,>:(

I've long forgotten about this GB.:))
Also: first photos! ;DWow. Now I am kicking myself for not getting a set of red mods. That red color is SO much better than I was expecting.

I was hoping for a brighter red, hrm. I'll wait until I see them in person though.
Haha, well there might be a bit of an aftermarket then for me to pick up some red mods. :) Sorry they are not what you were hoping for. :/

Me too, and 7bit just confirmed that they are a brighter red in fact. He's got some grab bags already with Round 5 stuff. It's just a badly balanced iPhone photo.

Round 5 / HONEY
Production has finished!
As soon as the remaining keys are here
I will sort them and ship the orders!
Sorting and shipping will take one month each!
Good lord is that a light I see down there? It's very faint.
I'm bequeathing my R5 order to my grandchildren, just in case.
Since this thread hasn't been updated for a long time: 7bit got the caps and is sorting at the moment.

do i remember correctly that he is going to start shipping around the middle of may?
i really hope 7bit is a real robot, since there must be a crap ton (or several) of R5 caps to sort and ship out.tee heee.. add another 2 years for sorting and shipping :eek:
7bit buys always take forever. This one was supposed to be different, because they were going to stick to a schedule. I should have known better. I cancelled my order, like, a year ago.
That's a good way for SP to send 7bit to GMK7bit buys always take forever. This one was supposed to be different, because they were going to stick to a schedule. I should have known better. I cancelled my order, like, a year ago.
I went in hoping for the best but not believing the hype. With 7bit you gotta assume a lengthy buy, but this one is a record. Also, there were quite a few production delays as the R5 order was repeatedly bumped behind smaller PMK orders. :mad:

7bit's announced he's completed sorting and packing of all the individual kits, so he can now put together and ship the orders!

R5 has been my biggest group buy purchase ever. Can't wait to sort through the mountain of caps.

Anyone else get a tracking number?

Nope. Mine should have shipped by now (order 0031), but I haven't seen anything yet.
Well last week he had 250 orders packed to be shipped and your order was in that list (as was mine) (http://deskthority.net/group-buys-f50/doubleshot-replacements-round-5-honey-sphericals-t6732-7890.html#p242432). :) It probably takes him a little while to get through them all.
I received mine in the post this week :thumb:Gorgeous! Can't wait for mine.Show Image(http://i.imgur.com/tHE3qMW.jpg)
I am enjoying this set more than I thought I would. Pretty nice... :)
I bought a few different sets from this buy, so I am going to have to see which one I like best and sell the other.

Has anyone noticed differences in the red colored caps?
I know lighting, bad photos etc, but I'm sitting here with them side by side and to my eyes they are not the same color red.
Anyone have a black Row3 "Q" that they don't need? Looks like my order has one missing cap, and if there's someone in the US with a spare, that's probably the cheapest/quickest replacement option.Ha! Yes I have an extra black Q. I think it's row 2, though.
I am enjoying this set more than I thought I would. Pretty nice... :)If you don't mind me asking, where did you get that case?
