Form submitted.  I'd rather have original WYSE colours but this is still pretty nice looking.  You know you could do this right at keycapsdirect right?  They have an order form for base and mods and you can choose colours for legends and caps.  You'd probably have to talk to Melissa about doing yellow legends for the arrow keys if you went that route.

The "SP" mentioned in the OP means Signature Plastics, which is keycapsdirect. It is mostly referred to SP on GH :)

I am aware of that, I was just wondering if he was using the new custom doubleshots ordering on keycapsdirect.

They pulled that specific site down recently, too.

There was another page linked off of that page for customizing a base set, modifier set, 17 key numpad set, 13 key "tsangan" set, and an iso set. A full 87 key set consists of a base set in conjunction with a modifier set. They are going to tweak that page and put it up again since if you had the old link in your browser the page turned into "under construction"

Oh I didn't even realised that got removed.  Hmm that sucks I guess.  Still would be highly interested in a set of these, but would still prefer original blue used on WYSE!

I think when WYSE keyboards are not regularly available any more a real WYSE replica set group buy will take place. I've had a WYSE set available in my FS/FT post for probably over a month if not longer with no interest noted.

I actually saw that yesterday.  I was actually thinking of buying those, but then i realise I would never find modifiers for it hahaha.

I've been on this forum way too much over the past two weeks, and didn't even see this thread until now. I'd love to see a SkyWyRe GB :)

The idea was to do a limited run of probably 100 so one per person.

I see, was thinking to make sure it'll fill 100, but I'm fine with that.

Toxic is taking awhile so not sure if I should try and rush this in before, or push it to afterwards. Unless someone else wants to take over. There is also a small chance I'll just buy 100 and take the risk and start a web site selling keys :p

Take your time.  Besides there are already a few good Group Buy key-sets currently going.  Plus you need to take care of each one you start because if you decide to take this one on and have a half progressed Toxic running as well..........it might be over-whelming for you, unless you get some of the other 'older geekhackers' involved here to help you out.

Having some one else to lend you a hand will make it all more manageable especially when running a Group Buy to it's successful conclusion.

I would take over but it seems like there is a certain degree of trust needed and i am not sure if i can fulfill that role since I am a fairly new member.. (like half a year)

I'd be fine with waiting till Toxic is over.  Since I am also buying that :P  Don't wanna kill my wallet!  I also may decide not to order depending on how that other WYSE group buy goes.

Its most likely not going to go through until he is done with the Toxic set.
