[IC] Cherry dyesub full sets v4

[CommonCurt]

So for dual language sets I think
US/Arabic
US/Chinese
US/Japanese
US/Hebrew
US/Greek

But I think perhaps on some other fonts. Maybe give the Cherry style a rest for a change?

You can never have enough Cherry font.  It's the best.

[Candyflip]

can you also do korean?

Hangul is Korean...

[Rewind]

awww yiss arabic!

[keymaster]

Maybe Macedonian layout?  )

Maybe Serbian ;)

Sounds good only 2 extra keys and both parties would be happy

I wonder if this can actually happen. I don't know what the MOQ would be or if enough people would be interested. But, people on here do buy US/RU & US/Hangul despite an overwhelming majority not knowing either Russian or Hangul, so there is hope.

[IvanIvanovich]

This is true. I think as long as it looks exotic and cool anything has a chance. As far as design MOQ goes, I have historically set it at 20 of a design to make the set up effort worth it.

[sublime]

Glad you're considering Arabic and Chinese Ivan. I can practically guarantee you two buys if those get through

[SSIPAK]

Hangul is Korean...

yeah i know that but i don't see hangul on that list...

Oh yeah and Hangul. Sorry I forgot about it.

He did mention later that he forgot to include it, but he does have it in the list. I am interested in a set too, so I will be vigilant.

[Candyflip]

I'd say we stay away from Hangul, there are plenty out there already and it is getting boring. Arabic sounds and looks cool and would be a nice change.

The quickest and most simple google search lead me to this. I bet there are many more out there even from past group buys, but why search for something when you can ask someone to do it for you right?

Actually with a simple search I can find no other sets beside the one currently on imsto. But I want a white based set that imsto no longer carries (not in the store right now at least).
And I tried searching in Classified, most of them are already sold, or WTB instead. So I genuinely want to know where to buy them, and I think SSIPAK is just annoyed that you said they are easy to find. Let's not start trash talking in the thread please.

If you are in a dire need of pbt dyesubs, yes there aren't any stock ones other than imstos at the moment (I thought he still has the white one but he does not), but if you only want for the layout you can try from wasd maybe? Other than that in the classifieds, someone might not be using his from previous buys so you might get lucky..

please do your research next time before you claim other people are stupid. i already saw that blue keycaps from imstos even before you made your post with your link. I clearly knew that you can not find any new hangul keycaps at the moment and that is why i made a suggestion in this thread but you came along and question my knowledge not just once but twice. if you want to play smart, please be sure that you can back it up before you click that post button 

[Candyflip]

First of all Hangul was requested long before you even posted here so I would suggest reading before posting. Second, as I said in my previous post (since you are obviously in for the layout only) wasd are selling Hangul set any color you want and that will be way cheaper for you too. I didn't wanted to argue about this I simply suggested that there are other interesting (not already used) stuff that we can do, nothing more.

once again, i suggested hangul because I didn't see hangul in op's list of dual language keys that he is currently interested in. I already saw that it's been requested before but op didn't include it in his latest post. also it's hilarious because you think that insulting people are same as you giving simple suggestions. oh and of course you didn;'t want to argue. no way. and who said i want abs hangul keycaps?

[Candyflip]

Ok I am sorry for insulting you. If you have anything more to say on the matter feel free to PM me, we done thread crapping.

[Vintage]

....drama...

All I have to say is that if Hangul was offered, I bet a lot of people (including myself) would jump on it. The amount of Hangul sets that are available right now shouldn't matter IMO.

[justnits]

hangul as main legend and english as sublegend? why not?

[sth]

i've also wanted a set with Univers 57 Condensed - the old italic Apple keyboard font, bottom-left aligned with lowercase modifier text.

any love for this idea at all? it could mean new colors (if that's possible) close to apple's Platinum (or hell even snow white schemed):

[Kfactork]

Ha! Spoken like a true Jeanne d'Arc. If it's possible I'm all for it

[chongu]

something like this...i love this colour scheme...
sub legend can be chinese or russian or german or something...

^ My vote goes to this!

Double post - sorry.

Hmm isn't that too thin for dyesub?
Also, what about Futura of thinness isn't a problem?

I though keycaps on Apple's one are dye-sub? :/

[sth]

yeah.. those are dyesub PBT caps on the apple board.

futura looks good too but im specifically interested in replicating the apple dyesubs of old.

Neat, didn't know that!

I bet you can get some support from the Mac users on GH as they always want the command key and such

maybe... i don't know how many mac users today care that much about the history of apple/mac os but regardless, its a nice typeface that has never been replicated AFAIK

and we could have a clarus key!! moof!

[JaccoW]

It is a very cool font and one that I wouldn't mind having on a white keyboard. The font itself is Univers 57 Oblique.
The off-white with grey looks very distinguished.

I remember downloading the font and using it to do some mockups and 57 oblique looked wrong... but the condensed one looked a bit better. I can check again if there is interest in a set like this and i dont mind doing whatever graphical work is required for a set.

the question is do we want 'command' and 'option / alt' or do we want it windows-style.

[bazh]

I'm in for an Apple replicate set, well, if we have enough interest, a full white or full grey set would be great

[IvanIvanovich]

I'm not a huge fan of italics, but if enough people want something like an Apple nostalgia set it's a possibility. Also hopefully sideprinting dyesub will be an option by the time we are ready so could put alt, and any other necessary legends to make the sets multi os friendly and still clean looking.

is it too much to do extra keys? like, do they have a set 104-key set as a product, or could we create a set of keys with an arbitrary number? personally, i would rather have a faithful reproduction with additional keys for windows.

[IvanIvanovich]

Not really. The way they have molds set up in multi key arrangements makes it hard. I guess it would be better to just leave it Mac specific then. There will be plenty of other choices for Windows oriented sets anyway.

hmm okay, i figured it had to be something like that given how hard it is to get mods in sizes i usually need.

i guess the mac-specific set would be hard to market to windows users who might not like the mac-relation but enjoy the font... really, the only thing that would be different is the alt key would have Option on it and the command key would use a different symbol, but those can be placed in the right order for windows/linux users. also the backspace key would say delete and the enter key would have to have return, but when i think about it, none of these legends present a fundamentally different set of functions anyways... so my vote is for faithful replication, probably of the AEK or AEKII because it's the closest to a 104-key windows board.

Aside from the interesting look, there's the added "bonus" of getting the wrong/opposite color fulltouch caps lock. So for those who bought into the R2 sets and who would buy these too, you'd would think you'd have two bad sets, but in reality you'd have two good sets.

That, or just the actual correct color caps lock alone.

Ha Ha.  Good point.  Hopefully they would be an exact color match.

Any Ingress players around? I'd love some keys with Ingress logos.

I would really like to run a Commodore style set at some point, but it's more likely to be attempted with GMK. When I try that I think I may give the alphas and mods+nav break up a shot again and run it with 2 options. Have the black on darker beige alpha set, a black on white mods+nav, and a black on beige mods+nav.
That way people that have black on white set could get a black on white mods+nav for mono or a beige set with modern keys, or can go with the Commodore style, or go with an all black/beige mono set.

Would much rather have Commodore style in thick PBT, but GMK would be nice also.

[bazh]

I love PBT, but the fact that we can never have a full support keyset like we did with GMK ABS always bring me down

[IvanIvanovich]

Next round of sets might have 1.5 mods and 7x spacebar if they are ready as I have been informed molds for those are in the works. Of course the cost on these sets will be up to $15 higher than before. Still working on trying to convince produce molds for ISO enter and 1.75 shift and then it would at least have all the essentials.

lovely!
what colour sets u have in mind so far?

[IvanIvanovich]

Probably either all white or white/beige classic. Other custom order colors is too high MOQ with KBC, though it might be doable with PLUM. But I think certain color might not be doable as I think still at least 300 sets.
