Both would fit. STDSYM125DE is cheaper because it doesn't have the 1.5u modifiers etc.
Don't forget that you will need to order a Spacebar separately ;-) RETRO/SPACE

No. I still get them even though he cancelled all the products I ordered.

And about those messed up keys.

Melissa's or your fault?

Her online honor is at stake here.

Someone at SP messed it up. Not Melissa's fault, not my fault.

Also, I've already removed you from the list, so you can't get spam from me.

Ar3s · « **Reply #3907 on:** Sun, 18 March 2012, 18:31:24 »

The latest email is showing the quantities only ? Cause you started it off talking about better prices for successful kits.

Looking at the quantities it's highest orders are spacebars.

irjoe · « **Reply #3908 on:** Sun, 18 March 2012, 18:33:37 »

So it seems the email that got sent out shows that Standard sets have a LOT more orders than say 125 or 150's. I have a Leopold, so I logically went with the 125's but now I'm wondering if it's cheaper to just choose the standard and have a lower price.

From what i understand, the STANDARD (without any numbers) will have all the keys that STANDARD125 will have plus additional modifiers with different sizes to cover various types of keyboards... am I correct?

Oh ok my bad. I was told thats what they look like. There is a pic linked in the wiki as well and it does look different than that one.

No, those are Cherry doubleshots. They have thicker walls and a different font than SP keys.

Make a WTB thread in the classifieds. You will need a moogle to go with it, group buy is coming soon for them.Also ascaii is going to have a doubleshot group buy on DT fairly soon.

Sorry 7bit;)

captain · « **Reply #3923 on:** Mon, 19 March 2012, 12:00:12 »

Why Moogle Cherrys when you can get a matched set here? I understand Moggling Wyse, since they are basically from the same SP molds, but Cherry plus SP is just frankenstein.

So, does the dropping of all the individual keys mean that reprints for bad round3 keys are not happening?? If they ARE happening, then why can't we tack on new orders for those too, and count SP's reprint "orders" toward the quantity discount? That seems like win-win to me.

Because none of these look near as good as cherrys. And when the moogle kit is on the board they look great with a cheery set. (I prefer the round 1 moogle but this current one should be excellent)

grik · « **Reply #3925 on:** Mon, 19 March 2012, 12:41:30 »

Iv ordered a STANDARD ROUND3 Set, and a Language KIT PT for them. I was thinking on adding a Retro keyset the problem is the Language Kit to go with it.
The styles are diferent from both, is this possible?

Thanks

So it looks better to have HALF one, half the other, than to have a matching set that isn't quite as fine as the other half?

I would like to see both sets in person.

I love cherry doubleshots. You may prefer these its all good. Once the moogle is on imo you don't notice it unless you really look for it. I'm not knocking these keys here. I had a blood set on the way.

CLEARALL

I found it in the wiki.
http://deskthority.net/wiki/Round4#Step_5:_Clear_Order

on the ''How to order'' section.

You have my thanks.

Autolyze · « **Reply #3931 on:** Tue, 20 March 2012, 06:34:00 »

Are we going to have dedicated threads for SPH and ROUND3 in hopes of drumming up a few more orders?

I see that the NOIR set now has the PHANTOM keys included in the STANDARD kit. Will that also be the case for any of the other STANDARD kits?

All that does is clear your order. 7bit told me to send a message with just my email if you want to stop receiving them. I haven't gotten one since.

curious how the clear keycaps look like. are they made from ABS? completely clear? I'm willing to get more than just 16x R4 clear keys, but I have no idea if it's the clear keycaps that I'm looking for.

Thion · « **Reply #3935 on:** Wed, 21 March 2012, 03:22:48 »

Does the "All space bars are available in any color!" still apply and if so, does it also apply to SPACETIPRO, since it is SA-Fam only?

nntnam · « **Reply #3936 on:** Wed, 21 March 2012, 05:32:26 »

Have just updated my order, the price is more reasonable now

.

By the way, how long it takes for SP to finish all the keycaps?

AKIMbO · « **Reply #3937 on:** Wed, 21 March 2012, 09:07:02 »

Can someone please confirm that this order would be correct for the Round 3 Dolch look that will be compatible with Filcos? I want the light gray spacebar like Dolch KBs have.

ROUND3/TKL

yes, that's correct.

palindrome · « **Reply #3939 on:** Wed, 21 March 2012, 14:36:48 »

I believe the syntax for the grey space bar is ROUND3/SPACE/GREY.

rindorbrot · « **Reply #3940 on:** Wed, 21 March 2012, 17:41:27 »

ROUND3/SPACE and ROUND3/SPACE/GREY are the same as this is the "standard" space bar color for Round3 style.
but there's also ROUND3/SPACE/BLACK (dark grey like the modifiers) and ROUND3/SPACE/ORANGE (obviously orange) available

morgofborg · « **Reply #3941 on:** Wed, 21 March 2012, 19:00:56 »

First post here. I noticed the ROUND3/COLEMAK is missing the left backspace key. I already tried to order ROUND3/BACKSPACE175 but it doesn't appear to exist. There are RETRO/BACKSPACE175 and NOIR/BACKSPACE175 though. Is there any way to get a BACKSPACE175 in ROUND3 style?

I think I remember reading many pages ago that the weird spacing issues in the Round3 set modifier keys will be fixed for R4. 7bit (or whoever), can you confirm that?

...and is there a process for getting replacements for sub-par keys delivered in Round3? My round 3 "SHIF T", "RE T URN" and "B A C K SP A C E" keys still catch my attention sometimes

Ideally, I think most of the modifiers should be redone in consistent size and space fonts - it would make the final result look much better.
