Yeah if these come in white I'll be in for a few of each design. Will look nice adding a splash of colour to my classic beige set.

Can you make a double sided bar so each side looks the same even after flip?

Perhaps we can use an ambigram so that it would read GeekHack right-side up or if the spacebar were flipped?

Wasn't there an older (much older) GEEK HACK keycap with kerning issues like "GEEK HA CK" - I thought this was in recognition of that.

In the long long ago times, SP had kerning issues on GH caps. Instead of being Geek Hack, it looked more like Geek Ha ck.
Alas at one point, the kerning issue was fixed and now we have GH caps as y'all noobs know :D

can't care less

Reason: probably not going to be PBT, and if PBT not going to be dyesub, and if dyesub not going to be priced at anything remotely affordable unless you're comparing to titanium spacebars, and if remotely affordable not going to be bought because there are dozens of other group buys going on...

there! Hope I have tempered everybody's enthusiasm a bit. Too many things going on wallethack.

We need more space bar art. When you think about it, it's kind of odd to have a 6.25x or 7x keycap that's blank. I noticed imsto sells some on his taobao page, but it would be cool to have some more, easily accessible options made by us.
Title: Re: Geekhackers Strikes Back: A cruel teaser
Post by: mkawa on Fri, 03 January 2014, 15:21:32
the 6th anni bars will available soon. however, there exist exactly 5. one is earmarked already. the rest will be auctioned off in the same style as the previous geekhackers auctions. they're something that lastpilot and then i and then imsto spent a lot of time on and i consider to be very special.

dyesubbing spacebars is extremely difficult. after the first time i dyesubbed SBs with imsto we actually swore never to do it again. these bars are dyesubbed by hand with a press in a situation in the operator has to be extremely careful not to warp the bar any further due to molded in stress or any other force while the bar is in glass transition. imsto literally could not dyesub the cherry logo bars for 6 months because it was 10-20C too hot in the factory.

yep, the larger the key, the more stresses are molded into the PBT. spacebars are as big as it gets, so they're an absolute PITA to do.

however, they look amazing, so imsto and i have been coordinating to dyesub a few SBs every month as super duper limited edition thing

That's a cool idea, especially considering how much effort it apparently takes to make one of these. Auctioning off a few of these every few months will keep people happier than a one time thing.
