Hey Folks, Looking to run an add-on for GMK WoB. Initially wanted to just rerun GMK Black Modi, but somehow completely veered off that path and ended up with this instead. The idea is to keep the kit as small as possible.
Firstly a Render:
(https://i.imgur.com/hKUra1a.png)
Here's a Mockup of the proposed Kit:
(https://i.imgur.com/jfvcVOB.png)
Vendors:
Oceania: DailyClack - https://dailyclack.com/
US: TBD
EU: TBD
Pricing: TBD (hoping for sub $50)
GB Date: Tentatively January 2020.
MOQ: 150
Please tell me what you think, any suggestions would be appreciated.
Google Form: https://forms.gle/vxZCDLTCPeR1dDq8A
Updates 1.0
- 1.25u Keys for Alt & Control
- Looking at different legends for the winkey
- Either adding the following for R3: Stepped Caps, Non-Stepped Caps
- Added winkeys (Super) & Menu key
Initial Kit Proposal:

We've already talked about suggestions I would make, but I'm sure someone else would mention it. I hope this comes to fruition!

1. 1.25u support
2. R5 bottom row for bottom-row modifiers (that'd also give full R5 support for any WoB owners! 2-in-1 bonus)
3. Non-windowed stepped Caps Lock -- pretty sure any windowed caps are pad-printed.
4. Changing "Win" to "Super" ("Super" is already available in R5 as well, in all 1u, 1.25u, and 1.5u forms).
5. Consider a R1 1u tilde key with magenta legend (for HHKB symmetry)

R5 doesnt make sense because on TKL arrows are R4 still.Admittedly, you're right. That's my blunder not thinking about that.

I'm one of those people who happens to own an R5 containing set.
If arrows cannot be added, I'll stick to R4 then. All good.

Regarding the 'Win' to 'Super' discussion. I prefer the mold introduced by Yugo called 'Sys' or 'System'.
Most people around here prefer anything over the windows legend. I'd take anything but the win one.

Feels bad. I must be the minority on liking win legends. Will definitely look into using a different icon for the winkey then! I was thinking of using the "#!", which solarised dark uses as well.
Regarding the Win-Key. There are a few options to choose from, Namely;
- #!
- super
- sys / System
- Windows logo
I'm open to any changes regarding this, just fill out the form and leave a response with this information or comment in the thread.
I'll outline the changes I came up with:
1. 1.25u support
2. R5 bottom row for bottom-row modifiers (that'd also give full R5 support for any WoB owners! 2-in-1 bonus)

5. Consider a R1 1u tilde key with magenta legend (for HHKB symmetry)
Regarding R5. I will ask for a quote for them, but R5 isn't a massive concern, nor high on the priority list for this set. There's already another IC going on at the moment that had was proposing an R5 kit already.
Regarding your other suggestions, I will be adding the 1.25u mods, but at this stage, I'd rather not add both a windowed and non-windowed caps lock key. I might at a later stage change the control key to a caps lock though, meaning the kit will have both Windowed and Non-windowed caps lock keys, but no Control key for R3.
The goal is to keep this kit as cheap as possible.
Ne Icon Mods avail.The one thing I won't add. :p

- Ideally I'd prefer 125 to be left out but I understand if the majority wants it in.
- No strong feelings about the 'Win' legends, anything but Windows icon please.
- As jani80k pointed out, R5 wouldn't really make sense here unless you were to also include accented arrows, which people might like for TKLs.
- I couldn't care less about HHKB layout but I don't think dropping the R3 Control in favor of a doubleshot stepped Capslock would be a good move. The latter should rather just be added.
- The icon vs text+icon discussion should be looked into but after all that's purely a matter of taste rather than actual compatibility. I do have to say that I prefer icons, especially on something that's rather sleek in the way that classic WoB is, and the 125 Shift and 150 Backspace would look better if this was icon mods.
Either way, I'm stoked for this and would join for the kit as is. Just, for the love of god, keep ISO in :)

Ignore the sketchy-ness of the pic.
Few things to note:
- I think it might be for the best that win-keys are left out.
- Added x1, 1.25u Alt & Control
- Added x1 Stepped Caps-Lock (window Free!)
- Will be adding a Tilde Key as well (matching ESC)
Will be getting a new kit picture made.

Worst case I add pipe as well, but I don't see a BS key being added there.
Regarding win-keys. I'm still open to suggestions but, the aim of this is to keep the kit pretty small, to keep pricing down and I don't really see them being a necessity.

I'm leaning towards the delete option myself. It doesn't feel cramped when compared to the 1.5u Backspace key to me and i think it just looks better.

Backspace please, also would love to see winkeys back with 'Super' legends. I know the kit would be getting quite big with those so I can see why you wouldn't though.
