So, this is an idea I played around with.  If there's interest, I'm going to try and do it through Massdrop.  I also plan on seeing if there can be proper cardboard boxes for storage if it's part of a buy.

Ideally this would be a kit that builds basic coverage into it for basic ISO, Winkeyless, 1800, Pure, symmetry, and swapped Caps/Control.  AFAIK the 6 unit space bar is only off-centered, so I don't think I can build in true HHKB, but maybe some of the MX boards would work with that?

GMK colors:

Purple - UN5046
Cyan - UN6037
Yellow - CV
Green - AE

Anything else people can think needs to be added?

Also, if a mod could add a poll to the top, that would be awesome.  I'd love to see if people want it split into kits or if they want to do a universal kit.

Great color combo  :thumb:. 

What windows logo do you plan on going with?

I'm thinking W8, but I forget which ones they have available.  My preferred are W7 and W8 or, if I go retro, Windows 1.0 (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/bb/Windows_logo_-_1985.svg/1280px-Windows_logo_-_1985.svg.png) (GOAT Windows logo).  I also think the newer logos go better with that out there coloring.  If this was the 3B/L9 set I love, W95 would be perfect.

I really hate the W95 logo, but I know some people get all crazy for it.  If that's the case, I could probably have a pair of 1.25 W95 caps in the everything pack.  Alternatively, since most the people I've heard who go crazy for it also use 1u Winkeys, I could do the 1u winkeys with the pad printed W95 logo.

If you could have some alternative to the win8 logo that would be fantastic. Whether it be blanks, win95, or win7. 

Also, if possible it would be nice to have alternatives in both 1u & 1.25

Anyone have any tweaks that should be made?  I'm pretty ignorant when it comes to a lot of the different layouts, so let me know if there's anything essential missing or anything that you might want to see added.  Also let me know if there's anything non-essential in the kit.

With the way it is now, I believe it should cover G80-1800, winkeyless and 1u winkey Koreans, HHKB (with off-center spacebar), and Pure layout.  It also should cover the White Fox, but without row matched profiles on the far right.  Ergodox and Planck just add too many keys that no one else can use, so I'm not including them (though if I go MD, I suppose I could make them optional kits).

Not bad. Almost manly unicorn :P

Yeah, it's just a little more subtle ;)



It really says something when this is subtle compared to another set.

It's a minor gripe, but the only thing I didn't see was a 1.5u Backspace, however I saw the 1.5u Delete, so that should work fine.

As long as the numbers aren't unreasonable, if people outside of the US want the set and it does run on Massdrop I am willing to proxy any international orders.  We'd just have to figure out the best way to do it so that we don't have issues.

Not sure what you mean by that unless you're asking for the Enter and Esc keys to be separate.  I'd prefer to make everything a universal pack to help everyone out, but, if necessary, I'd split it into child deals (assuming there's a promise that they get made).

Not gonna lie, it's partially me wanting to help people out and partially me being selfish.  Proxied international orders means more sets hit and closer to MOQ.  I do like to try and help people, but it's not 100% altruistic, even if I wish I could say it is.

I'll be hitting GMK up for one and I'm seeing about getting a render (but they're pricey for me).  I've been playing around with an alternate idea for a BS fully MX compatible switch (trying to improve this so the spring is not part of the mechanism (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=79219.0)) or I'd be trying to figure out how to do a proper render myself.

Well you are still helping people get the set and it helps MOQ. I don't see it as selfish but a win-win situation.

Alright, did some editing based on feedback so far (and in some cases, lack of comment)

(http://imageham.com/images/2016/02/05/SkeletorEditedandNumbered2.png)


Keys added:
- R1 - nothing
- R2 - nothing
- R3 - nothing
- R4 - 6u spacebar, 2x blank 1u, 2x blank 1.25u, 1x 1u Code


Keys nixed:
- Alpha matched F5-F8
- Stepped Control

I'd really like to be able to get rid of about 5 more keys, but I'm not sure what I could drop.  The ones I'm thinking might be able to drop are the following:
 - 00 Key
- 2x 1u Win keys
- Sub 1u Menu key with a blank

Without giving ISO users blanks, I can't really see it getting more streamlined.

Why get rid of the stepped Ctrl key?
Title: Re: [IC] GMK Skeletor
Post by: nubbinator on Thu, 04 February 2016, 23:53:22
Why get rid of the stepped Ctrl key?

Control for Caps is already a minority group and even fewer boards have the offset stem that the stepped caps has.   A majority of those boards that support a stepped caps also support the full-touch position. 

In other words, it makes very little sense to include an expensive cap that adds nothing except for a minority of a minority.

Missed that, thanks.  Went ahead and fixed it on my link I'm working off. 

Right now I'm waiting on GMK mock ups and quotes and a render from another user on here.

I'm going to say to use one of the 1.25u blanks for that.  I'm at the point where I'll only add essential caps I'm missing and would, ideally, cut down on the number of caps if possible.  A Caps for Control is a small minority segment and I'm already acquiescing a bit with the Control for Caps key.

Got a render, but I'm waiting to pay for it before I pop it up.  I'm still waiting to hear back from GMK, hopefully early next week.

If it's thesis, he's got to be making a killing from all these ICs and GBs.

Will the ISO enter have an icon or text? Your KBLE mockup just has text, but I know its hard to do icons on there.

I always think that icon and text look the best on GMK key caps, classic and elegant.

He deserves it. It's some of the best rendering work I've seen out there.

Case in point, I wasn't all that interested in this colorway yesterday when I first saw the IC thread, but coming back to it today and seeing the 3D render has got me HYPED.

I don't know how many you would have to sacrifice to win, but probably at least a dozen while saying your hail Topres.  I'll probably make some matched Dolly, HKW, and Dolly V2s, split them up, and randomly toss them in (or get MD to randomly toss them in if I go that route).  If it goes MD, my plan is to recoup my investment costs ($50 for the render, maybe something for the caps I'd make and shipping to MD) and reinvest any profits I would earn into getting extra caps (yellow on magenta Esc anyone?).


And, yes, I'm aware that I abuse commas and parenthetical asides.

Any chance to add a R4 1.25 caps lock key? (without incresing the price of course)
I'm going to say to use one of the 1.25u blanks for that.  I'm at the point where I'll only add essential caps I'm missing and would, ideally, cut down on the number of caps if possible.  A Caps for Control is a small minority segment and I'm already acquiescing a bit with the Control for Caps key.

Yay,  blank 1.25's  :)

Why get rid of the stepped Ctrl key?

Control for Caps is already a minority group and even fewer boards have the offset stem that the stepped caps has.   A majority of those boards that support a stepped caps also support the full-touch position. 

In other words, it makes very little sense to include an expensive cap that adds nothing except for a minority of a minority.

do a lot of people actually use a "control for caps" keycap?  i always use the capslock position key for control mod behavior, but i don't actually use control for caps keycaps, because i think it looks odd to have the control legends in both the capslock and lower left control positions.

They're both going to be included so that people can choose their preference.  I think either looks good, it's just not the original plan for the set to have that order.  I feel a little bad asking you to swap them, but if it's not a lot of work, it would be appreciated.  I got caught up in how awesome of a job you did that I didn't notice.

Check out the Keyboard Layout Editor mockup in the OP.  That should cover the G80-1800 layout.  There's a 6u and 7u spacebar, 1u 0/Ins, 1u +, 1u -, 1.75u Shift, and then 1.5u Ctrl and Alt or 1u Ctrl, Alt, Win, Menu.


I still need confirmation that I have ISO covered (I went for basic UK ISO) and that the kit covers a bunch of other layouts like winkeyless, HHKB (aside from the spacebar), Pure, and so on.

Another question, should I keep the 1.5u Delete for HHKB, or do I add a pad printed backward delete symbol on the two \| keys?

Post by: nubbinator on Sat, 06 February 2016, 23:38:44
Hey nub any chance to get some blank modifiers as well.

Probably not unless I did a separate kit.  I'm trying to make a mostly universal set (except the damn ergodox that takes a million odd caps) that's affordable.  I'm not really looking to add any caps unless they're essential.

Keep in mind that each larger key added is about $1-2.50.  To make blanks for an Ergodox, you'd be looking at an additional $15-20 on the base price most likely.  As you add more, that cost barrier becomes harder to overcome.


I'd build a new keyboard just for this set. Would I have everything I need for a HHKB layout? 7u spacebar also?

HHKB has a 6u space bar.  It's planned for the kit, but for G80-1800 compatibility since the spacebar is off-centered.  I don't know if any keyboards that support that layout will also support the off-centered space.  The Viper looks like it uses a 7u space bar (that's also included), but, again, I'm not sure what keyboards that support that layout use on the bottom row since I haven't kept up on that.

Hey nub any chance to get some blank modifiers as well.

Probably not unless I did a separate kit.  I'm trying to make a mostly universal set (except the damn ergodox that takes a million odd caps) that's affordable.  I'm not really looking to add any caps unless they're essential.

Keep in mind that each larger key added is about $1-2.50.  To make blanks for an Ergodox, you'd be looking at an additional $15-20 on the base price most likely.  As you add more, that cost barrier becomes harder to overcome.


I'd build a new keyboard just for this set. Would I have everything I need for a HHKB layout? 7u spacebar also?

Thanks for letting me know I'll probably still get the set and make it work as I need :)

Cheers

grey goes well with everything, though.  i can throw anything on my dark grey GON and it looks good. :)

i love the brightly colored boards, but then i would be limited to certain keysets.

Oops, that \| cap was meant to be for HHKB layout.  Looks like I had a brain fart and messed up the color.  Thanks for catching that. 

Edited because I'm retarded.

I was thinking the same thing. I'll sell it to the wife as a keyset for my daughter and then secretly use it myself. This is pretty rad.

Now I'm thinking of modding my HHKB to MX and putting this on.

That's a tricky game to play.  The little one might latch on to that set and fight you for it ;)

I'm lucky in that I've got the only keyboard Cherry MX compatible keyboard in the house.  That and the kids are pretty much used to laptops and just using the built-in keyboard.

Yup, I'm thinking there's going to either be some parents buying double or parents wishing they'd bought double from this set.

For the parents with daughters, perhaps getting Hana moving might work as well.

I like the original images with the purp and cyan text. Or what about Lime green text?

Double shots with additional legends pad printed on the front.  I think that the Backspace arrow on the front of \| was thrown around as such an option.  And the front printing on PrtScn/Pause as well, in the OP mockup.

Yes, but it's very rare to see it done.  I believe there have  even been quad shots.  I don't know if GMK has the capability or is willing to do triple shots though.

As nubbinator knows it's hard to do.

The way that you cast keys makes it hard to do a split like that. Even when you try to do that for artisan it ends up looking like cheesecake swirl.

But it doesn't seem like something that is very many people would buy. It would be a big investment to reevaluate how keys are shot.

Good question though.

EDIT we probably shouldn't discuss this here.

You'll have to find someone willing to break up their set.  Unless there's a consensus to run those separately, it makes no sense to break up the set like that.  If I was going to run just those caps, I'd buy them and sell them on my own.

2.25u caps are not cheap.  Honest question, how many FC660 users are there and how many of them plan on buying this set?  Everything I've seen puts them as a tiny minority and I'm trying to keep the set as slim as possible.  If I can get 25 people with the FC600 or FC660 layout to commit right now to buying the set at $125 (I have no clue what the set will actually cost, just throwing out something consistent with others), I will consider adding it. 

I'm still waiting to hear back from GMK with an update, hopefully it's soon.

I'm still trying to figure out if I can nuke the 00 key.  I think I had it for discrete numpad support, but I'm not sure how big of a group that is that would need it.

What's GMK's policy on one-offs? By that I mean, SP will make you one single key if you're willing to pay for it. If it's, say, $30 for a one-off 2.25 cap, maybe the FC660 users would be willing to pay that for compatibility so the rest of us don't have to foot the bill.

Just an idea, not sure if anyone has looked into this option.

AFAIK it's MOQ or bust.  I can ask about a limited run of blanks to see if it's feasible without mold changes on one of the doubleshot caps.  Again, this isn't something I'd commit to doing though unless I have a guaranteed 25 commits to the buy for people with that layout.

On the adding caps front, I'm sorry if I come off as an ass at all, it's not intended.  I'm just trying to keep the set as lean as possible while appealing to as many people as possible. 

Keep in mind that GMK has a higher MOQ than SP and there are definite psychological hurdles to buying for people once a set goes over $100.  The difference between the set costing $115 and $120 can be enough to cause a significant drop off in people committing.

They haven't gotten back to me on it yet.  I believe Cherry still has some boards that use it, so it would be odd for it to be out of the picture.

That said, GMK has been very very slow to get back to me, so that could be the case.

They haven't gotten back to me on it yet.  I believe Cherry still has some boards that use it, so it would be odd for it to be out of the picture.

That said, GMK has been very very slow to get back to me, so that could be the case.

that doesn't sound like good news for anybody...

That's the likely route.  I still have to get pricing and see if there's any more tweaks that need to be made. If it is MD, I have to see if they're willing to keep it as a complete set or if they are going to want to break it into a set and a pack.


Additionally, based on the renders, it looks like GMK no longer has the 6u space bar.  While, not ideal, I can always look into seeing if we can get a color matched SP spacebar in that length.  If that's not preferred, I might drop some more caps that were included for that specific layout.

They should be able to keep it as a complete set.  Didn't they do that with some of the other GMK sets?  Their ordering system would be able to handle that easily, at least.

Correct.  The colors were taken from a scan of the caps and viewed on an IPS monitor to try and ensure color match.  The green is GMK green on Elitekeyboards and the same green in the Royal Typewriter buy.

No on both.  Alt Gr isn't a necessary cap and there's little difference in looks between Alt and Alt Gr.   R5 causes a ton of problems, especially since it forces you to have mixed profiles, and very few people seem to like it.

There's a yellow and purple enter, you don't have to use the green.  I know not everyone likes accent keys, so it was designed with that in mind.

I could probably do a pack that has to hit MOQ to run, but I have no plans to add a second shorter shift unless there's a significant number of people who request it or people are fine with dripping the yellow enter key.  The FC660 layout is used by a pretty small minority of people.

If it turns out that the 6u space bar mold is broken, I'll have to look at 1800 again and see which caps are specific to that permutation and probably yank them.  If it's broken, I'll also be looking at a short shift for the FC660.

That's bad news about the 6U spacebar. But the older winkeyless 1800s use a standard 6.25U spacebar, IIRC.

The render didn't have it, so I asked for confirmation about the status of it.  I have no solid news on that front.

Like I said earlier though, if people absolutely need that, speak up now.  The other option is trying to get a colormatched 6u SP spacebar (even though it's not ideal) unless we could get a JTK run of the spacebar.
Title: Re: [IC] GMK Skeletor
Post by: yinzer on Fri, 11 March 2016, 18:28:12
Hey nub any chance to get some blank modifiers as well.

Probably not unless I did a separate kit.  I'm trying to make a mostly universal set (except the damn ergodox that takes a million odd caps) that's affordable.  I'm not really looking to add any caps unless they're essential.

Keep in mind that each larger key added is about $1-2.50.  To make blanks for an Ergodox, you'd be looking at an additional $15-20 on the base price most likely.  As you add more, that cost barrier becomes harder to overcome.


I'd build a new keyboard just for this set. Would I have everything I need for a HHKB layout? 7u spacebar also?

HHKB has a 6u space bar.  It's planned for the kit, but for G80-1800 compatibility since the spacebar is off-centered.  I don't know if any keyboards that support that layout will also support the off-centered space.  The Viper looks like it uses a 7u space bar (that's also included), but, again, I'm not sure what keyboards that support that layout use on the bottom row since I haven't kept up on that.

It seems like the wind is strongly blowing towards a universal kit, but if it ends up going the other way, would you consider trying a half-a-dox kit?
Title: Re: [IC] GMK Skeletor
Post by: effectiveduck on Fri, 11 March 2016, 18:38:33
Sucks about the 6u, since GMK is doing custom molding now would it be feesible (I doubt it financially) to have them make a 6u mold? It could also be made with new stems to accommodate the center stemmed 6u boards and topre boards.
Title: Re: [IC] GMK Skeletor
Post by: nubbinator on Fri, 11 March 2016, 18:40:12
The problem with the Ergodox kits are that they're very expensive and hard to hit MOQ.  They also use a lot of caps that cannot be used with other common layouts.  The best option is to see if there's any way to do blanks to get the necessary caps, but it's really a huge PITA.

At this point I'm not even sure there are 6u spacebars available.  They didn't include it on the mockup and some have said the mold is broken.

They are, but realforce boards (for example) are center stemmed, so if the mold was remade it could include a new stem to accommodate these boards, plus other 6u boards (razer and CM have some I believe).

Can confirm that the 6U spacebar is not available anymore, confirmed by GMK.

I haven't asked them about a new mold, but making new legends vs a new key mold, is a different matter altogether and I doubt it would be possible, given the low popularity of the 6U spacebar.

I have no clue.  I know someone was on vacation about a month ago and that impacted the renders, but, yeah, they're really not communicating well.  I'm hoping that this next e-mail receives a response.  If it doesn't, well, I may start shopping around the set and see if someone who has worked with them more can help.  There's been a pretty substantial amount of interest in the set, so I may just need someone with more pull.

Mostly this. Not that I don't like them but it makes an already expensive item 30-50% more expensive.
Insane shipping for larger items and almost a certainty that you will be hit by customs because they cannot undervalue.

True but we still get hit with that if it is shipped back from the US + much more expensive shipping after the latest price hike by US postal services.

Remember, VAT is price of the item + shipping + customs handling fee. And Massdrop rarely offers cheap shipping to Europe.

Edit: I remember it being much worse in the past. The various TKL boards have a $19 shipping attached to them. That's doable.

It's actually not as bad, because I did research this for my own GB quite a bit. Things to keep in mind:
1. At least for keycaps, US govt doesn't impose any duties when importing from GMK
2. When GMK ships within EU, they impose 20% VAT
3. MassDrop get volume discount on shipping and when I compared the costs with shipping within EU, it was about the same (~16 for a full set)
4. If GMK ships to two different locations, they will charge more for shipping.

Pending changes, nipple on numpad 5 and bastard shift for FC660.  Also requesting text and icon legends (text only on caps if they don't have both) and text only legend on numlock

Once again, if there's any way to slim this down, please, please, please make a comment.  I want to make this as affordable as possible, but right now I expect it to be at the $140 price point some of the other bigger sets are at unless I can find some ways to cut costs and/or trim it down.

Some possible ideas for trimming:

Remove 1u winkeys and turn them into Code or only give blanks as an option.

what layout requires two 1u ctrl and two 1u alt keys? can blanks just be used on those layouts? same goes for 1u winkey, i'm down to see 'code' keys instead.
looks like we have three 1u R4 blanks, do we need 1.25u blanks also?

imho, i like the all-in-one set. hope this doesnt get broken into child sets due to price...

Winkey G80-1800, but with the 6u spacebar gone, I have to see if people want those still as they may cover other layouts I'm not 100% on.  Again, this is a place where I need people to chime in or I'll make an executive decision on it.
Title: Re: [IC] GMK Skeletor
Post by: digi on Thu, 24 March 2016, 23:29:52
My vote would be to yank all the 1x mod caps, you could still fill up a g80-1800 layout with the 1.5x mod's, and get the price down. :)

In terms of cutting the set down I'd suggest:
- R2 - , R3 + , R4 0 and 00
- R4 1u Ctrl and Alt keys
- There's 6 windows key replacements, maybe bring it down to 4 (two 1u and two 1.25u) either CODE or blanks.

You could also bring down the number of ISO keys but maybe consult ISO users.
Title: Re: [IC] GMK Skeletor
Post by: nubbinator on Fri, 25 March 2016, 01:26:14
R4 0 and 00 are for numpads.

ISO is at the bare minimum.  I'm waiting to hear if there's anything else that uses the 1u Ctrl and Alt.

Here are my comments:

  • 1u ctrl and alt should be removed along with blanks, maybe throw in an extra code 1u there.
  • 0 and the 00 for the numpad also to be removed.
  • Please keep the HHKB as is.
  • +1 on text legends.
I think that 0 and 00 should be kept in the kit. I actually use them, as do those with 1800 layouts.

For good 1800 support the set is missing R1 End, R1 Del and R1 Pg Dn. For that reason I would totally remove the 1u ctrl and 1u alt keys as well as one of the 1u blanks. The 1800 style numpad keys are still used in a few of non-1800 boards, but those would be the next things I would cut if needs be.

Im slightly confused by is the change in color, but I think I much prefer the colors in the new mockup.

Definitely need one of those, and 140$ seems very reasonable for set like that.
I could personally live without the green esc & enter since they don't go with the new colors as well as da yellows imo tho.

I'd personally be okay with just 1u blanks as an option. I think the only thing to cut costs at this point would be to get the amount of orders to the needed number for extra keys/price drop. Maybe to get orders up there talk to a vendor or two?

Wow didn't know gmk mockups looked like dat.
I like both tbh so Im fine with either way  ;D

For dropping things I would prefer to keep one 1u ctrl and alt each for 75% layouts.
(This way you'll at least get full coverage with correct legends.)
On the other hand using blanks for this scenario wouldn't be to bad either I guess...

Would personally also be totally fine with dropping 1u win for code, so you'll end up with two code instead of just one.

How about:
drop one of each 1u ctrl & alt
drop 1u win keys
(eventually drop one 1u blank)

add one more code key

just my 2 cents

Alright, looking for input on these three:

1. ISO users, would you also like a yellow and green enter key or is that too much with the set?  I didn't include them because I thought it took it from an accent to a slap in the face.

2.  Are people okay with swapping the Windows key for Code and dropping the blanks?

3.  I plan on changing the 1.5u keys to Control, but is there a preference for Ctrl or Control on 1.25u keys?  I know this can be an oddly contentious point.  My inclination is to only have 1u keys read Ctrl.

2. That works.  Each time my Win key changes off the Win logo, it's slightly odd at first and I get used to it.

3. Hmmm, either one works though I'm probably most familiar with seeing Ctrl on Cherry/OEM caps.

2.  Are people okay with swapping the Windows key for Code and dropping the blanks?

3.  I plan on changing the 1.5u keys to Control, but is there a preference for Ctrl or Control on 1.25u keys?  I know this can be an oddly contentious point.  My inclination is to only have 1u keys read Ctrl.

1. N/A
2. code is better.
3. I'm more used to see Ctrl on 1.5 as shown on my realforce and Control for the 1.75 R3, but I guess it might be fine.

1) I'm a red-blooded American

2) I'd prefer a Windows key, but I appear to be in the minority.

3) I prefer 'Control' for 1.25 keys. Ctrl should only be used if the full word doesn't fit IMO

2. Yes, ditch windows and blanks.

3. I don't mind. Go with your personal preference.

1. Yep, not a huge fan on very contrasty esc/return/enters, so just 1 ISO enter is fine, usually I consider it lucky to even get 1...

2. Yep

3. No strong leaning, but 'control' always feels a little odd. I'd vote for 'ctrl', but I'd rather see either/or than both together.

I've had one request for more ISO enter, more for no chance.  Since ISO enters are expensive, I'll keep ISO as is.

Still undecided on Control v Ctrl on 1.25u, but Control on 1.5u is set.

I may just drop the blanks and swap for Code.  I'm undecided on Win key since I like the Windows logo.  Do I need to keep one blank for odd layouts?

I vote for having the win key as well. Most sets have them for a reason right? Because they're used on lots of keyboards. Can someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Okay, making an executive decision.

No ISO enters will be added.

1u Winkeys will be Code keys instead, 2 blanks will be removed and one will remain.

R3 PgUp and R4 PgDn are being added.

In the end, it should cover almost every layout while still being pretty affordable.  I'm asking for a quote on it and working with a vendor on a timeline.  If the quote from GMK comes back too high, I may have to cut a little from the less common layouts, but, hopefully, it will have a good coverage.

1. ISO users, would you also like a yellow and green enter key or is that too much with the set?  I didn't include them because I thought it took it from an accent to a slap in the face.

2.  Are people okay with swapping the Windows key for Code and dropping the blanks?

3.  I plan on changing the 1.5u keys to Control, but is there a preference for Ctrl or Control on 1.25u keys?  I know this can be an oddly contentious point.  My inclination is to only have 1u keys read Ctrl.

1. Not bothered.  I'm just happy there is ISO support and the UK neededkeys :)

2. As long as there is an option for no windows I'm ok.  Would prefer blanks but Code is ok

3. I prefer Ctrl but it's no going to stop me buying a set

Alright, received the final render and it looks correct to me.  I'm hoping to hear back from the vendor helping out in short order so that I can get things launched.

As you said in a few pages back, the cyan colour is inaccurate.
Will the real colour be brighter or dull compared to this mockup?  :)

The I'm working with is at in Asia right now, so response is slow.  They are acting interested and want to help me keep it at a lower price than some other similar sized sets.  Unfortunately, that means a little patience to do so.

The vendor is in a place they can communicate more readily.  We're working some details out and hopefully it will be going soon.  I'll be making up some new pretty pics and trying to hype it up on Reddit.

Unfortunately, it looks like this will probably be a limited run and we're trying to figure out if it will be 150 or 250.  This is a good and bad thing since the numbers will be limited, but it should make things quicker.

Well, I'm hoping to have it launched early next month at $115.  I'm working on coming up with a cap that's a freebie for a select number.  Also, if someone can make a skeletor themed svg for a novelty cap, that would be awesome.  Apparently GMK is becoming more open to novelty caps.

Did no one complain already about the "handbag" icon on caps lock? I thought loads of people hate that. Personally, I prefer text only on caps lock.

I wish it had the complete 1800 layout (it's missing R1 Del, End, PgDn) but I'll be buying it regardless.

This set is likely to take out Miami and 1976 as the most demanded keycap set ever made, timeless as the masters of the universe themselves... Nubs please make sure you pick a stable manufacturer in Asia because it is likely there will be demand for a second run and you wont need to re-source in future if you select the right manufacturer.   I think I recall the Tox drop running into long term difficulty.. Let us not have all your hard work run to ruin by slap dash production promises from OS.

Not sure if this was already discussed but is there a particular reason Caps Lock is the only icon modifier?

Caps is either icon or text, there is no icon + text.


And I just realized that I made two small mistakes in my mockup.  They should now be fixed

Right. Why not make Caps Lock a text modifier so that it's consistent with all the others?

That's unfortunate. The non-GMK renders show a text Caps Lock which is why I never spoke up. I apologize.

I did.

Did no one complain already about the "handbag" icon on caps lock? I thought loads of people hate that. Personally, I prefer text only on caps lock.
Title: Re: [IC] GMK Skeletor
Post by: CommonCurt on Thu, 09 June 2016, 19:22:45
So only the Caps Lock is going to be icon or text while the rest of the mods will be icon+text?

You did well after I had asked for input.  The design had been finalized when you finally brought it up.

Sorry for being annoyed, is just frustrating when you actively seek input and no one says a thing until you're dry to go.
Title: Re: [IC] GMK Skeletor
Post by: Wilba on Thu, 09 June 2016, 19:26:29
All your keyboard-layout-editor mockups and the 3D renders didn't show the Caps Lock icon at all... it wasn't until the GMK render that it was visible.
And I was the only one that spotted it then, and mentioned it.

Post by: honeynugget on Thu, 09 June 2016, 19:34:13
I think most people didn't speak up because some renders did not have the icon legend. Myself being one of those people, I did not notice until the GMK renders.

It's unfortunate it cannot be changed but it's not a huge deal to me.

I asked for preferences many times.  I got silence.

I sent an email to the vendor I've been working with, but, like I said, it may be too late at this time.  This is why it's essential that people voice concerns early.
Title: Re: [IC] GMK Skeletor
Post by: Gengarfan on Thu, 09 June 2016, 19:35:09
Wait, the renders that were most recently posted have text for caps lock. Is the set actually going to run with the symbol instead? I never noticed before but text for all modifiers would probably be best. Just wondering, how come it is too late to change now if the set hasn't even been made or paid for?

Wait for the GB to start, and then you'll understand annoyance, when people would say, is it too late to ask for this and that, or I wish there were this keycap as well.

No.  It only covers more standard layouts.  I wouldn't expect VE.A support with any group buy.  You might be able to cannibalize other caps to make it work.

I'd highly recommend working with MD or whoever for a GMK VE.A multi-color "spacebar" buy for those with that layout.  It's such a bizarre and minority layout and an expensive cap to add, so I highly doubt any buys will add it.

It's far far cheaper to do something like that with a thin SP set.  SP also has much lower MOQs that facilitate mod packs.

SP has far more accommodations for different layouts than GMK does. GMK restricts their caps mainly to standard keyboards, whereas the more non-standard keyboards they accommodate still are far more mass-produced than custom kits.

If we go with trays, the cost will increase by $6-7. The shipping to US buyers will increase a bit, but International shipping will increase by a significant amount. This is why I think we should avoid trays. If everyone is okay with trays, then I wouldn't mind :)

Bags it is.

I am okay with bags if that is what people want, but I am highly against it. You are almost guaranteed scratched keys if we don't use the trays (they are updated by the way). I had 8-10 very scratched keys from the skidata+ group buy and many more with less noticeable scratches. This will only creat more work for you Nubbs for when people ask for replacements. I am more than willing to pay a little bit more and avoid the hassle. It is truly a bummer when you open your new set to find ugly marks on them guys. Just my two cents.

I don't plan on trays.  And based on experience with the TA buy, trays are much worse than bags.

As for when, I'm not 100% sure, but it should be soon.

Didn't they update the trays? Thought I just saw a gmk set from Originative in a pretty good looking tray.

as i know, GMK has modified the trays for keys to avoiding keys scattering in transition and the new tray is more sturdy and erect than old ones for TA. if this is true ,i prefer to trays , if not , i would rather  choose bags and adding some foam wrap to avoid scratches .

I believe the updated tray uses sturdy pins throughout the tray to make sure the tray doesn't move around and allow the caps to move freely. There should be no chance of scratches with that. This is what my Sky dolch came in. I can update the thread with a picture of the tray so people can see what I mean as well as show pictures of what kind of scratches I have experienced. If there is interest for that just let me know.

To echo what others have said, the GMK trays are vastly improved since the TA fiasco.  They learned.  An added benefit: the trays give GMK a 2nd level of sorting for every set.  This means fewer missing and duplicate keys and fewer headaches at the final stages of the GB.  Well worth the cost increase.  $6-7 for a meticulously-sorted set with no scratches?  Yes please.

If people are willing to pay the difference, then I guess trays are the way to go.  I just know the psychological barriers $5-10 can make can be huge.

I'm fine with either. Don't suppose we can pick during checkout if we want bags or trays? I'm guessing we have to choose one for all the orders, but just seeing if we have options.

Sounds great then. Trays it is! We have keycap trays in stock on our store, and they are really well made.

So the increase with the trays will be $6, but there will be a little added costs due to shipping from Germany -> California with trays.

The weight will be approximately 1 lb 8 oz (2 lbs according to USPS). The shipping will be from 90601.

Here's a calculator if anyone wants to check the approximate shipping, https://postcalc.usps.com/. Please select package for #5.

The MOQ is 100, and we will limit it mostly to 150~200 sets. There will be no tiers. The reason for the limitation is to proceed with it as quick as possible!

We will give it the go when it reaches 100 sets.

Side note: Should we send a message about local pickup, or just worry about that closer to the ship date?

Will those impatient few who ordered before the group buy truly started be accounted for, or should I send in another order?

Hoff is swamped apparently and it seems like no other mods ever approve anything.  Until they do, I'll just keep posting the link: http://www.kbdist.com/skeletor

I need some desperate advice. I want this keyset so bad but have never had an mx board(only have had an hhkb). Was thinking about a 660m but curious if anyone had any suggestions!

Good **** nubb! This set is freaking amazing!

No!  As much as I want this buy to sell out, I need to collect a little more $$ to get in before that happens.

If you guys read our site, there's a new Purple. I'm not sure of the color codes, but it is more saturated!
