This is really good. High fives for the Huge base kit.
goshdarn, that base (shell) kitting is bae. I use arch btw
Thick milk
do you have color codes? with the render thing i think it'd be easier to visualize what we're looking atI was going to put them into the IC, but didn't want clones to be made, if you personally think that doesn't matter I have codes I can add in.
( also makes it so if renders aren't accurate it's gucci we know what we're getting )
Any void linux edition avail?smh my head Arch is the only distro
i mean there's no real downside, if your colors specifically are known that means people will know they're the colors you're using, and personally i find i can make a more informed buying decision with pantones or rals availdo you have color codes? with the render thing i think it'd be easier to visualize what we're looking atI was going to put them into the IC, but didn't want clones to be made, if you personally think that doesn't matter I have codes I can add in.

Wait its all arch? Never has been.Any void linux edition avail?smh my head Arch is the only distro
True, I'll add it ini mean there's no real downside, if your colors specifically are known that means people will know they're the colors you're using, and personally i find i can make a more informed buying decision with pantones or rals availdo you have color codes? with the render thing i think it'd be easier to visualize what we're looking atI was going to put them into the IC, but didn't want clones to be made, if you personally think that doesn't matter I have codes I can add in.

Good luck! I switched between Arch and Ubuntu a lot when I was in my "**** Windows" phase.
such a clean look :cool: any chance for f13 in the base kit?Will definitely consider adding it
RIP CentOS.Stream can't keep up to the glory of GMK Arch
Long live GMK Arch
So happy to finally see this up on GH! Excellent job and best of luck with IC and GB :thumb:Thanks Man!
RIP CentOS.Wait CentOS is gone? Such good memories.
Long live GMK Arch
Hello, do you want to collab on the second deskmat?Hey yeah sure I'd be down, dm me on my discord if it's possible.
GMK install gentoomust compile keycaps from source
I would like to see an F13 in base. Otherwise, I like it.Will be added in, and for anyone else reading just to make sure I'm not overloaded I'll make changes every few days so I can do a few all at once
Where is the Arch blue?
Arch set without that iconic blue logo anywhere? :(
The 'A' logo doesn't look much like the Arch "A"
Love the idea of -SYU, will be chronically annoyed that it's not "-Syu"
Love the Pacman key.
Overall I like the colors but imo it definitely needs the Arch blue *somewhere* as an accent.
Is this https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/DeveloperWiki:TrademarkPolicyHey like I said in the post, I have explicit permission from the trademark team to run the set so all is good on that end
an issue at all?
Edit: I'm actually asking btw.
Am I even allowed to use this, even though I useI'll make an exception for the shell kit, the rest you need to use vanilla arch for smharch for noobsmanjaro?
I feel like text mods would be more fitting for an Arch based/inspired set
I feel like text mods would be more fitting for an Arch based/inspired set
Same, I feel like this would look 110% better with just text mods and maybe a separate icon mod kit.
no "btw" novelty? disappointed.Look at the aur kit, there's one there haha
Look at the aur kit, there's one there hahaAhhh dumb me was looking for a 1U key!
Hey, so I personally thought it would be nicer to mute the blue a bit into a teal so it would fit with the minimalism more, and the same reasoning goes for the simplified Arch Logo. You don't know how mad I am at myself for not noticing what was wrong on Syu and that will be changed for the final product. Thanks for the feedback!Are there other sets that explicitly cop the name of a beloved property/theme and then go out of the way to change its logo and core colors?
Also in the spirit of open source, lets see those color codes.Never thought abt it like that, I'll add it in once I'm back on my pc

Arch is only minimal if that's what the user wants, btw.
I guess it's your set and you have permission but it sucks this with become "the" arch kit and have the wrong logo and colors.
That's not to say the colors aren't great, I like them but it doesn't make sense to call it arch while changing both the logo and the base color.
It would be like all the eva01 stuff softening the green or something...
Redhat is dropping support in 2021 and focusing support on CentOS stream, which is a rolling release with scheduling between RHEL and fedora. The reason it's 'gone' is because anyone who was using CentOS was using it for hyper stability, even with super-legacy, and even deprecated packages. Rolling release, regardless of actual up/downstream scheduling, is very against that methodology.RIP CentOS.Wait CentOS is gone? Such good memories.

I've been commenting about how the kits are sold, and I have a question.I don't know yet as I haven't recieved quotes from gmk yet, so I can answer that then, but the thing is that the spacebar can add cost that will make people who don't want it shy away due to not being able to afford it,
I realize that not everyone wants a spacebar in contrasting color, but then others do. I'm one.
But I honestly don't want to spend $30 - $40 for a spacebar in a contrasting color since I'm only going to use one.
I've asked this question elsewhere and they commented that spacebars are expensive to make.
But my question is it really that much more expensive to include ONE more in the base set?
Or is this a tactic used by designers to make more profit?
yes, please and thank you. numpab, annnnnnddd extra b in base?? I might not see this till 2022 but i'll take ittrust, it'll be here much much sooner ;)

Sure, someone else *could* come along and do it 'right' but I anticipate their IC thread will be overrun with people talking about how confusing it is there is another "arch" kit and "you should use a different name" and so on...Maybe even GMK going, hey we already have this very different product line. Pick another name.(?)QuoteI guess it's your set and you have permission but it sucks this with become "the" arch kit and have the wrong logo and colors.

There is no reason this has to become "the" Arch Linux kit, anyone could redo it in the future to be more true to the overall Arch theme as long as permission was granted from the people overseeing Arch.
The more I consider this with the colors and off novelties the more I'm leaning towards skipping it.

If this is the first kit that comes out bearing the name, it likely will be "the" kit because anyone who wants to come do something that really is Arch-like would be fighting the existing idioms.
I do understand what you're saying though.
At first this didn't bother me much, but as a 10+ years arch user the more I think about it the less I like it. Taken in a vacuum the colors are great. The arch'iness is there in the quirky keys (-Syu) - great! VIM KEYS - I LOVE! <3
But I don't think it's right to use the Arch name and then make your own logo and color scheme. IMHO that's wrong and will set a precedence while simultaneously being inauthentic. Anyways, not my thread. I don't own arch either... but i will be hard-pass on it now.

I fully understand what you mean and won't try to change your opinion, but I will explain my pov for a few things, when I contacted one of the vendors I was going with, they made it obvious that this would be an expensive set as is, and I had to remove some icons(there were going to be true arch logos in the gui kit for super) so since I had a logo with the simplified style I had decided to stick with that novelty since it was already there and I didn't think people would care that much, obviously I was wrong. Especially since your a long time Arch user your feedback means more than most other since technically you're what the set should be appealing to. I will try to find a way to fit those back in once the quotes come back and I know if it will work or not, and I'll see what I can do about making it right and getting this set closer to what it was meant to be, because originally I really wanted to stick to the true arch colors but both personal preference and the fact that anything with those colors always resemble Umbra or another set to the point that I can't run it at all, so my hope was that I could get close and use the novs and mat as a way of maintaining the theme. So I hope you understand, and even if you don't your opinion is still valid and I'm going to use it for guidance from now till gb(if that happens) and for future sets.

Being too close to Umbra with that sort of aquamarine blue makes sense. I don't see why you couldn't just replace all the R1/R4 Arch logos with the official logos keeping the option 1 and option 2 kitting the same, where would be the price increase in doing that?

Man you made a killer looking IC, amazing presentation -- I'm super proud to see this come to full fruition since you initially first posted that concept render in the discord.Thanks! Though it wouldn't be the same without your killer renders!

Got it, I see what you mean. Having both logos would definitely be way over kill. I think another reason you should use the official logo is you're in the uncommon circumstance where the people that are responsible for the original IP have given you the go ahead, so many sets have to try and work around this by creating an "inspired by" set. Also the deskpad uses the real logo.
Just saw your comment on one of the proxies saying it's going to be an expensive kit. The base could be cheaper if numpad and ISO were removed and made into their own kit like is pretty common to do. Especially since there are 2 different ISO enters in the base that will drive the price up a decent amount.
That base kit will cost around 135usd/euros in general. The majority of current sets also go with the big base kit. I have no problem with the current base kit. Remove numpad will only reduce the cost around 10usd/euros based on gmk pricing, remove ISO wont do much either but will lose a lot more interest for people who use ISO (European buyers). If runner are to remove some keys to keep the cost down, remove R1 end and R1 Pgdn and those accent arrows and all Numpad together but the ISO has to be in base kit. Just look at GMK ThinkCaps or GMK Norse, they go with a TKL base and received positive feedbacks about the kitting. The removed keys from base may go to another kits or become a separated kit of its own.My mistake, I mean I had both, if people end up wanting the normal arch logos over the simplified ones I will replace them as a whole.Sure, someone else *could* come along and do it 'right' but I anticipate their IC thread will be overrun with people talking about how confusing it is there is another "arch" kit and "you should use a different name" and so on...Maybe even GMK going, hey we already have this very different product line.

The more I consider this with the colors and off novelties the more I'm leaning towards skipping it.
If this is the first kit that comes out bearing the name, it likely will be "the" kit because anyone who wants to come do something that really is Arch-like would be fighting the existing idioms.
I do understand what you're saying though.
At first this didn't bother me much, but as a 10+ years arch user the more I think about it the less I like it. Taken in a vacuum the colors are great. The arch'iness is there in the quirky keys (-Syu) - great! VIM KEYS - I LOVE! <3
But I don't think it's right to use the Arch name and then make your own logo and color scheme. IMHO that's wrong and will set a precedence while simultaneously being inauthentic. Anyways, not my thread. I don't own arch either... but i will be hard-pass on it now.
arch logos: https://www.archlinux.org/art/
ok, i will bow (disappointedly) out of this thread now.
I fully understand what you mean and won't try to change your opinion, but I will explain my pov for a few things, when I contacted one of the vendors I was going with, they made it obvious that this would be an expensive set as is, and I had to remove some icons(there were going to be true arch logos in the gui kit for super) so since I had a logo with the simplified style I had decided to stick with that novelty since it was already there and I didn't think people would care that much, obviously I was wrong. Especially since your a long time Arch user your feedback means more than most other since technically you're what the set should be appealing to. I will try to find a way to fit those back in once the quotes come back and I know if it will work or not, and I'll see what I can do about making it right and getting this set closer to what it was meant to be, because originally I really wanted to stick to the true arch colors but both personal preference and the fact that anything with those colors always resemble Umbra or another set to the point that I can't run it at all, so my hope was that I could get close and use the novs and mat as a way of maintaining the theme. So I hope you understand, and even if you don't your opinion is still valid and I'm going to use it for guidance from now till gb(if that happens) and for future sets.
Thanks,

Being too close to Umbra with that sort of aquamarine blue makes sense. I don't see why you couldn't just replace all the R1/R4 Arch logos with the official logos keeping the option 1 and option 2 kitting the same, where would be the price increase in doing that?
Got it, I see what you mean. Having both logos would definitely be way over kill. I think another reason you should use the official logo is you're in the uncommon circumstance where the people that are responsible for the original IP have given you the go ahead, so many sets have to try and work around this by creating an "inspired by" set. Also the deskpad uses the real logo.
Just saw your comment on one of the proxies saying it's going to be an expensive kit. The base could be cheaper if numpad and ISO were removed and made into their own kit like is pretty common to do. Especially since there are 2 different ISO enters in the base that will drive the price up a decent amount.
That base kit will cost around 135usd/euros in general. The majority of current sets also go with the big base kit. I have no problem with the current base kit. Remove numpad will only reduce the cost around 10usd/euros based on gmk pricing, remove ISO wont do much either but will lose a lot more interest for people who use ISO (European buyers). If runner are to remove some keys to keep the cost down, remove R1 end and R1 Pgdn and those accent arrows and all Numpad together but the ISO has to be in base kit. Just look at GMK ThinkCaps or GMK Norse, they go with a TKL base and received positive feedbacks about the kitting. The removed keys from base may go to another kits or become a separated kit of its own.
I saw this happen in the Keycap Designer Discord! Congrats -- super nice looking set. And love the attention to detail in the whole IC post.Thanks! Excited to see the other sets that are coming out of KCD
Well I have nothing against the current base kit, it's just a suggestion about which key is more vital to keep in the base. I actually prefer big base kit than some of the new terrible kittings.That base kit will cost around 135usd/euros in general. The majority of current sets also go with the big base kit. I have no problem with the current base kit. Remove numpad will only reduce the cost around 10usd/euros based on gmk pricing, remove ISO wont do much either but will lose a lot more interest for people who use ISO (European buyers).

Just look at GMK ThinkCaps or GMK Norse, they go with a TKL base and received positive feedbacks about the kitting. The removed keys from base may go to another kits or become a separated kit of its own.
I wouldn't exactly consider ThinkCaps to be a shining beacon of how to Kit GMK though. I had to pass on it because it was just too much to get what I wanted out of it.
Anywho, splitting numpad out of a $130 kit is a good way to turn it into a $150 kit for those that actually want the numpad.
Not saying that's a bad thing, TKL's are certainly popular.
But removing a key here or a key there really won't do much to help the overall cost of the base kit. However, adding a key or two will marginally increase the cost but definitely up your numbers. One good example is including minibars and second B in base for Alice users. That way they're not forced to buy a $50"degenerates" kit for like 3 keys.
What doesn't work so well with GMK is separating out the 40's keys (minivan, ortho, etc) into lots of little kits. Having a comprehensive 40's kit might be expensive but it usually works out pretty well.
I think the kitting looks pretty great as it is. Big base kit is best base kit. I would like to see some love for minivan 1.75u backspace and row 3 1.5u enter though.
This or the GMK Stealth... Ughhhhh why y'all do this.
please include a render of the TTY kit on a board so we can see what that looks like!If you hit more on the iron180 renders the 2nd one is with the TTY and GUI kit!

Thats true, I'll probably hagve to ocmission another render for that which I don't currently have the cash for, worst case is the scene render is the only tty render until the GB which would have a tty board render.please include a render of the TTY kit on a board so we can see what that looks like!If you hit more on the iron180 renders the 2nd one is with the TTY and GUI kit!
That's a great render but I wouldn't say that it really highlights the TTY and GUI kits very well because of the shaded lighting. Something like your other renders would really help with seeing what this is supposed to look like.
who is riftkeys?A friend of mine who is a vendor for OCE, and also the OCE proxy for ashkeebs and mechs and co,
Will this set be difficult to install? Or should I wait for GMK Ubuntu instead?Will be much harder to install, but I recommend giving it a shot ;)

Swapped out the simplified logo for the true one, though based on what I'm seeing teh cuts in the logo won't show in the final caps,
Guys, can we stop making kilometer-long chain quotes? ;D You're making them almost as long as the Arch installation process.Gotta stay true to the theme
Would it be possible to move the vim arrows to another kit? Or make them their own kit? I want those but I don't really care about the icon buttons.someone else asked for it so it's definitely a consideration, just where it would fit best is the question, since I don't want to make the base kit too large.
Wow, really happy to see how this set developed!!!Thanks! Excited to see how the KAM 80s gb goes
Really enjoying the set. Reminds me of the "Arc Dark" theme with teal instead of blue more then Arch though.A bit too late for a full rename haha, though in retrospect would have been a better idea.
Maybe a rename to include teal as in "GMK Arch Teal" or going with Arc.
Either way I'm in.
Shouldn't F13 be mod colored?yep will fix
bump for updatreI don't think adding 40s keys to base kit is a good idea. People who use 40s keyboard need a lot more specific keys, hence it's better to put all the 40s keys to a separated kit.
That's definitely true, and I'll be 100% on that when I have quotes from GMK, because I'll have enough responses to gauge the demand for a 40s kit and pricing for the base, a LOT of people want nothing to change in the base kit bc of the 40s keys, and if the price for the base is decent, and demand for a dedicated 40s kit low, I'll keep it as is, if the price is high and the demand is high, I'll make a dedicated kit.bump for updatreI don't think adding 40s keys to base kit is a good idea.

At this point I think the base kit will be around 145 150 retail price, but you get everything so it's actually not bad. The colorway and the theme are just too good.

Ram might have found a niche here...Thanks haha, yeah this could very well become a set series with the many options, though your forgetting GMK Windows, where I use some obscure color chip that only I have access to.
GMK Gentoo
GMK Buntu (I would guess copyright infringement on this one would be hard to get around hence the name)
GMK MicrosoftEdgeIsTrash
Just saying. Gorgeous set.
I say NorDe aswell! looks good!
Will give it a shot: NorDE please!

arch dolch so lit*facepalm*
I love how all four of the renders show the colors differently
No Ubuntu hate. This is weird.Arch users are superior. They don't piddle with things like concerning themelves with the shortcomings of lesser OS'
Demand is showing so I'm considering a dedicated 40s kit, but for now I'm waiting on quotes before making any major decisions, tho physical 40s compat will be on the base kit, I just need to update it.No Ubuntu hate. This is weird.Arch users are superior. They don't piddle with things like concerning themelves with the shortcomings of lesser OS'
That's what Gentoo is for.
Oh yeah what's going on with 40's support? Have you considered making any changes?
The following keys can be removed from the kits since they either serve no practical purpose or are not commonly used. Sorted top to bottom from “totally useless” to “somewhat useful but may not be worth including”.In place of these, keys to consider adding are F13 to base (as previously mentioned in the thread) and 2× 1.5u Super to base and GUI (in which case you would keep the second 1u Alt keys).
- 1.75c keys in spacebars — not used outside of a small number of 40s boards (which this set doesn't support);
- second 1c and second 1.25c in spacebars — not used outside of a small number of ortho boards (which this set doesn't support);
- second R4 1u Alt in base and GUI — only useful if there are 1.5u Super keys;
- R1 1u Backspace in base — not commonly used;
- R4 1u 00 — only useful for standalone numpads;
- R4 2u Shift — popular in East Asia for GK64 and similar 60% layouts w/ arrows, but not commonly used elsewhere.
I feel like text mods would be more fitting for an Arch based/inspired set
Same, I feel like this would look 110% better with just text mods and maybe a separate icon mod kit.
I'm inclined to say that text mods would be a good idea. It would probably give the set a bit more character and tie in a bit better with the theme. On the other hand, I think that keeping the current look and adding the GUI kit mods on top is also a nice prospect.
Edit: correction
Holy ****, the real logo is in?! <3Dang haha, thanks
I am buying everything. Hell, whatever kits you make I'll buy two of each.
I will buy this kit to fit on a keyboard of choice to use with my Ubuntu server, then some things will be complete. Is there any possibility of adding UK ISO to a kit or maybe a NordeUK kit?
Looks great! :DThere actually used to be 2 1.25us in that kit, so adding one back can definitely be done.
Would it be possible to add a blank 1.25u in spacebar-profile for the common 6.25-split space (2.25 - 1.25 - 2.75) to the Powerline-kit?
EDIT: Found the missing B
Hoping for a NorDE/UK Kit as well. These are very nice keycaps, but I will not buy it without a NorDE kit.At this point I'm waiting on quotes before drafting a full nordeuk kit, but most likely it will happen based on the responses I saw
I know there's a pretty long earlier thread on Arch's original icon and colors, but just wanted to double-check. Is it a foregone conclusion that the original Arch blue won't be in the set, not even as part of an add-on kit?No, if you want to get as close to the arch blue in a set, you'd have to get GMK Umbra, because my set would too close to it if I used it.

The reason this set uses a different color than the original Arch blue is because some other set previously used a similar colorscheme? This does not make much sense. This design is obviously not a copy of GMK Umbra, but instead inspired by something completely different; that something of course being Arch Linux, where there is an obvious choice for the colorscheme. Any Linux user knows, at least roughly, what "Arch blue" looks like.
I do not understand why, in this hobby, some people think select colorschemes are reserved. There are people that jump into new threads and say, "The colorscheme of this set of keycaps is too similar to that of set x, which ran once y years ago, so you cannot make this."
We are talking here about blue and dark grey/black, a common combination all over the world.
We should let people have what they want and vote with their money. If there can be a bunch of cyberpunk keysets, many run at the same time and which all use relatively similar colors, then there can be more than one blue and dark grey keyset.

(Posting the same update I put on the discord)I recommend this kitting for base kit: https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=109588.0 with/without a few minor tweaks, like adding that accent 6.25 space bar to base ;D
Kitting overhaul is likely, and will be confirmed once I have quotes for current kitting,
any major changes to lower cost(if it ends up being needed) will be left up to a poll of Kit Ver 1 vs Kit Ver 2, with a "price tag" for each to show the difference in overall value. For new kits, 40s and NorDeUK will happen based on the IC form responses, Ortho/Ergo is a hard maybe and if I do add it they'll be one kit. Numpad kit is possible if costs do need to be cut down for shell, along with moving all 40s compat and iso compat to respective kits(this is what the poll will decide). I'll keep you guys updated on this.
Btw If you wanna be able to vote on any of hte polls I put up or be up to date on any small updates, join the discord, will make mnaging things way easier on my end

Ah, very good! I read over the thread but must have missed that. :-X
I believe as long as you got approval then it should be fine, I was simply going off of what the Wiki was stating! Seems like you have it all covered and did your homework, I'll send you a DM just to make sure we get any information needed so there are no surprises or delays regarding this from our end down the line and go ahead and let the team know that this logo should be fine for production.
Great efforts and design :thumb:
I have all the information needed for logo use on the GMK side - this won't be a problem to manufacture. Giving this set a huge thumbs up on my end :thumb:Ofc Ofc, also forgot to ask, I'm pretty sure the cuts in the arch logo would need to be removed(I swapped the arch logo from a simplified one to the real one a few days after sending the original kits for quotes) do you know yourself if they need to be or not? I'll dm you the svg if you need it.
To fit the theme you should make a keyboard that requires the firmware to be programmed before each use :p

I am injecting my excitement for this kit. There have been a lot of ICs out there - and after looking at stuff for months this one really stands out. WTG mai dood. <3Thanks haha, glad to hear that the set's really standing out this much compared to other ones.

Is adding the couple of additional UK ISO caps to the base set out of the question? The accents and the AUR kit are really nice.Considering that I'm adding a NorDeUK kit it wouldn't really make sense to include those in base
Mechfashion sleeve samples just came in! The teal will need to be brighter, along with changes to the terminal legends for legibility, and size will probably be changed from 65 to TKL for sake of making it more universal but other than that I personally think they came out great!
amazing vision and amazing work! i would grab a 65 sleeve but not a TKL in case that makes a difference to anyone.Makes sense, I'll definitely need to find a middle ground that pleases everyone.Mechfashion sleeve samples just came in!

If you include an ENTER and ESC key in RAL210-70-35 keycap color with black legend symbols in the GUI kit, you will sell sooooo much with just two extra keycaps! Or maybe even just the ENTER key. I would literally buy double the number of complete sets. Please do it!
When can we expect to see collab protos?I don't have an estimate on any of the resin Artisans as of yet, but I expect the Asero Artisan proto to be done by Early April at the latest(I could end up being wrong though so don't take my word for it.

Yeah, if that mountain is by itself, this is a full matching set autobuy for me. The case looks great with the terminal though.
Beautiful work.
Looking forward to this one! But shouldn't the accent colors be closer to blue rather than white? It still looks great thoughI tried teal accents in the set but honestly the look of the set wasn't as great imo, so I decided to stick with white accents.
Man, why did you have to add that GCC kit, that is such nice kitting, I am so impressed, it’ll be hard to pass up!
I love this set. I have GMK terminal, penumbra, solarized dark. I am in the GB for ePBT Be the one, and KAM super user. I am a big fan of sets that are inspired by IDE themes.Hey prob not at this point because I'm pushing it alr price wise atm, I think while it isn't perfect you can use basically any key for the 1u shift, and for the 2u, the numpad 0 key
Is it possible to add 1u shift and 2u shift on the base set? I need it for my 60% with arrow cluster.
gmk debian whenWhen the when the
I have a couple of questions about the GCC kit.
1, Was there a reason a 3 bar was included but not a 2.75? 2.25 + 2.75 is a very common spacebar option for 40s.
2, Is the fact that the 2.25 and 3 spacebar are mod colored instead of alpha colored something you feel strongly about? If not I would like to suggest these be alpha colored instead.
This is so beautiful on first sight. I think you either love or hate the real mod legends. For me I stared at the renders for a while then realized the set I actually want is GMK ApolloYeah the teal def won't be for everyone
That deskmat is just wow :thumb: :thumb:
i see gcc kit, i buy.
I like this a lot! :thumb:Yea its a mistake on my end, I'll fix it tonight thanks!
I assume row labels are messed up on GUI kit?
hjkl is row 3, and are the 1u GUI mods row 4?
Hi Ram, norwegian :p :p :p. Can we have some of the R2 novelty 1u keys moved to R3 and R4 to cover the column of (end, pgdn, pgup, home, etc). You have 4 R2 1u novelty keys and I don't know which popular layout uses these (even full size and TKL use 3 R2 1u keys: delete, end and PgDn). I think changing key row won't affect the price, right? Since you don't add new keys nor modify their size.I'll take a look and see since originally it was for boards that have an extra row above the numpad and just for the f-row(, pricing wise it won't affect it yeah, just gotta see which ones would be best to move down and if other people want it moved down too or not
Just wanted to say I still dig this set! Looking forward to the final outcome :thumb:
On a side note, this may be the simplest comment I've ever made on a forum in regards to Arch haha
I'm going to join GB - just wondering how much it is gonna cost me. ;) Still pumped - pretty sure this set is going to do very well.Thanks Haha!
I believe the Localization Kit needs a R4 1u pipe key for ISO UK layout.Noted, Makign the update once I get the chance
So..... When's this going to drop? Excited to build another keebAnnouncement coming before the end of the month :)
that tilde in the renders looks quite big compared to other keycap sets. Is that intended? It looks awkward a bit.Hmm, it looks about the same to the gmk sets I've seen in person/the ones I see in GH on renders. It'll use a standard mold so if it seems big to you, it'll be a normal tilde key.

New IC Form posted, please fill this out even if you've already filled out the original IC form, Thanks!
responded. fyi, my issue isn't how interested -- or not -- i am in purchasing this set. my issues are (1) $ available, as quite a few sets have my interest; and, (2) how many sets can i really use*. making decisions in next week or so.
*hint: there are more sets that i really like than i can possibly use, and i feel some responsibility not to be a consumer just because i like something.
That GCC set is impressive, what the set might need is a 1u r3 ctrl. Has anyone mentioned a colevrak kit yet, because I always wonder when it's okay to ask for it considering very few use it, but I hope that may be different for a "niche" set like this (Arch and 2(?) orthos). This set is a winnerIt's going to be a pricey kit so I won't be putting any more keys than there already is in it currently sadly. Colevrak won't happen sadly because just not enough people asked nor would raising the kit count to 8 be a good idea for a first run imo
It's going to be a pricey kit
Omg, I have never been so psyched for a keycap set before! I'm so happy that more people are focusing on programming and distro-themed sets. While I'm a POP OS user myself, I've always loved the Arch aesthetic. I Will definitely join in on the GB :)Thanks :) Glad to see that there's so many linux users in the hobby!
Near avg base kit pricing, just on the higher end,It's going to be a pricey kit
We talking over $300USD or under?
Any chance you could offer Trimat-deskmat without the Arch logo aswell? Its a great dark grey design that could work with other combos/keysets :)Hey personally for the Trimat I feel like the Arch logo is one of the things that keep it thematically on point, though if I end up not liking the proto I get I could always make the change haha
I like this set and not just because it's based off my bistro :). Definitely in for the Shell and AUR kits. And maybe the GCC for my work board.
Thanks!
:thumb: I'd been meaning to change it for a bit!
Thanks for applying what I believe to be the correct casing to the enter novelty :thumb:
Now I just have to wait for the GB - I am very excited about the ortho/ergo kit, many sets run recently have been missing 2x2u spacebars in even their ortho extension kits.
Hello, a bit off topic. I plan to get the GMMK pro and I would like these keycaps. Would the base set be enough for me? Also, can you recommend a good switch? I already have 2 sets of Cherry mx and wanted to try another brand but I've read that Kailh and Gateron are both clones of Cherry? So maybe I should stick with Cherry? Thanks a lot for making this btw!

As it says in the description, "The Shell Kit is where it all starts, containing everything you need for the most common layouts", and that includes the Pro's 75% layout.
With regard to switches, that's a highly subjective topic. I recommend consulting a few of the mechanical keyboard channels on YouTube to learn more about your options. Among other things, you'll hear Chewie advise you to buy a switch tester.

Thank you, should have mentionned that I am not looking for recommendation on which switch since I understand it is subject to personal taste, but was wondering what are good quality switches that would fit both the keyboard and these particular keycaps. I am a noob at building a full keyboard.
Thanks a lot!
What profile are these?GMK only does cherry so cherry
Hope it's not too late but is there any possibility to see it rendered on a lighter colored board please? Like any silver or e.white, no fancy colorsAlready had a render with a light colored board but hadn't added it since it was a krk render, I'll put it in just as a reference later today
Ty!
Great keyset !From what I've seen the demand for it just isn't enough to be worth the risk of having another kit or increasing the cost sadly
I would love to back this and get my hands on when the GB opens, but there's no ISO support of the french layout...
May I have a chance of seeing an addition to the Intl kit, or even a separate one ?
I use Arch btw.

As someone who made a few contributions to the first incarnation of the AUI script, I am definitely going in on this set. And the Trimat. Who knows what else once the novelties are shown off.
I use(d) Arch, btw.
Mainly since i work in a Windows shop, but if I had the opportunity to do it, I would.
Thanks haha! Honestly amazing to know that some of the major community devs like the set!

Are there 1.5u Supers in base or GUI kit at all for the HHKB/Mac types?
I may just be blind.
Is there any option to add ISO ES keys in the Location kit? It would be an insta buy for me :-[

Anyway to add stepped control and also matching vim keys to the match the mod colored alphas?

Might be a tad late, but why are there 4 R3 1u blanks yet no 1u convex bars in the ergo/ortho/40s kit?Hey, 2 of those 1us are supposed to act as spacebars, and the other two mod colored ones for weirder ergos or full sized ergos
I assume the blanks are for ortho/innermost columns for ergo users, but there are existing legend-ed 1u keys, so it seems extraneous?
