Yo JC now that I think about it, have you considered potentially offering all colours of space bars in the accent kit? I loved the cyan ones from the first iteration and the pale pink would look great too - I get that the idea is mixing and matching but could still do that. If it wouldn't add too much to the cost that is, I guess hitting MOQ with a different space bar kit altogether would be problematic but if they were to be included in the kit that you already have then maybe it'd be worth the extra money. Wouldn't really know how much it'd cost considering custom colours etc.

why is there just one icon capslock with a window? can we get a window on the stepped caps? how about numlock and scroll?

either that, or maybe just remove that key?

Yes, please add a window to the stepped capslock. It's mandatory for any classic set. Numlock and scroll are unnecessary IMO.

Btw, why would anyone use a stepped Ctrl?

Coming from a HHKB Ctrl takes the place of Caps Lock and some people like having Ctrl in that location.

The purpose of the stepped design is to avoid accidental keypresses, and I don't see how the Ctrl key can benefit from this. Why would anyone want their Ctrl key being difficult to press?

This. No one really would use a stepped Ctrl there as the purpose to have it "full touch," so by having it stepped you sort of defeat the purpose.

I use full and step control keys replacing the Caps Lock key, I do not notice any difference. Maybe the stepped one is a bit more harder to press but nothing significantly. I would like to have them with the proper legend. By now, my step control key is a down arrow icon, while the full touch has the Control legend. Again, it is nothing of actual relevance; but, I would like to have it properly named.

Here's some pricing:

Base Kit
- $125.00 USD for 155 keys (added the LEDS)

Accents (custom cyan and purple)
- $28.00

Accents (3a/3c)

MoQ information
- Base will proceed with 150 MoQ
- Accents (c/p) will proceed with 150 MoQ
- Accents (3a/3c) will proceed with 100 MoQ

Uh, excuse me, but $125 for the whole base kit? That's a bargain!

JChan, keep up the great work, you're bringing a LOT to this community, and providing great prices too! I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one thinking that.

Any chance we could have a seperate pale pink Spacebar group buy? <3

Thanks mate. It all comes with continuous work. I hope people jump on this since the MoQ is lower and price is najs.

For the pink 3A spacebar, we'll have to avoid that this time around. MoQ is something we gotta meet, but I'm open for it in the future run :)

Anyways, we're live -

https://www.keyclack.com/product/group-buy-gmk-muted/

A proper GB thread will be opened, and I'll lock this IC up and link to the GB thread in a few hours when I can compile it all together.

Let's reach some MoQs.

The MoQ for 250 is the first point, so if we hit 500 sets (the 2nd drop point from GMK), then we'll offer it ;). It's about $8 drop for everyone.

I got some emails regarding this I'll reply to later.

For the fonts, they are standard Gmk cherry legends. Those are just renders that use the font that Thesiscamper has in his arsenal :).
