Just released on Originative. What do you guys think? I'm tempted to buy a set but the exchange rate for me would mean this set would cost me around $265 which is quite ridiculous.

I believe these were for dropped on Massdrop around 6 months ago and they just got delivered this week as well.Show Image(https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0267/1905/products/skydolch1_1024x1024.jpg?v=1455918836.jpg)
No scoops :(
no its not... bars are for non touch typers those scrubsNo scoops :(
Isn't that a good thing? ;)
The blue is too loud against the other colors. Strikes the eye too strongly than any other extravagant colorway.
Holy shiiiiit, do u see that sexy tray it comes with!? I want a cpl of those!! :eek:
i could probably hold out if i had my hyperfuse.

For the price of one tiny keycap you could have a full set of keycaps :D

Yeah it's pretty painful, poor'ol Canadians suffering the same fate.
And yet I'm still considering it :'(

Don't forget that tray doesn't hold well during shipping - cue the other GMK set, which I can't recall the name of - which caused scratches!

Sheraton told me that GMK had re-engineered the trays for shipping and these ones don't have the issues of those seen in TA

This is true, I have been in contact with GMK as I was thinking of starting a GB for them, but they are more expensive and have mechanical latches (whatever that means).

I think those trays are pretty cool. If I had multiple keysets I'd probably want a few. Luckily I don't have multiple keysets =p

There are 6 latches or nubs. They hold the top and bottom tray tight together. You can release the latches to open the tray up. I wouldn't say the quality of the plastic is the best, but it's perfect for storing keysets
I like mine. I find that adding any sort of mod kit (CMYW, Dolch Colour Pack) makes it very visually crowded.Show Image(http://i.imgur.com/k7WZIkQ.jpg)

Looks nice! What about just the cyan modifiers? And maybe a matching artisan on esc?

Here's an album of CMYW and Colour Pack. http://imgur.com/a/hwARl
I pulled out a KatzenKinder blank that matches pretty well. Might shop around for something else to match it.

I feel like the white legends add just too many colours, especially when they're a main focus. Overall it's a great set, but I think that mod packs will have to be made specifically for this set.
The texture on those look great. Maybe more than the Ducky PBT it seems. Any nice pictures of the thickness of the caps?Best I could get before my cat needed attention.
Are the hyperfuse mods the same color as the sky dolch alphas?
The tray does a fine job when properly packed. But with Triumph Adler, Massdrop's famous fulfillment center basically threw some loose crumpled up packing paper on top in an oversized box and then shipped them around the country.Holy shiiiiit, do u see that sexy tray it comes with!? I want a cpl of those!! :eek:
It's the terrible GMK tray that does nothing.
Yeah, the tray may be great and all, but how about when you open it? Won't you spill your caps all over the place? Even when opening it carefully, there's going to be some Jack-in-the-Box going on.I ordered two sets of TA, which I think actually helped them arrive safely (thanks to the extra weight against one another). And I didn't experience any problems while opening the trays. In fact I still use them to store the sets.

Hmm, okay. May order one from Originative to see what they're like.

And around the world.
My tray was actually upside down inside the Massdrop box.
I wonder how the new trays would fare if shipped upside down.

I think the key is the little bubble-clips in the center of the shell. Between H and J, and to the left of the up arrow key. If those are squished and not properly clipped, you're gonna have a bad time. In my case they are working fine.The tray does a fine job when properly packed.

You and I have different experiences. If I so much as twist the tray a little or tilt it slightly, caps go flying out of place. A tiny jostle and stuff is flipped.

for anyone that actually has the set, do the cyan legends blend with the green dolch caps? In pictures it just looks a bit too close for my liking.
Bars instead of scoops? **** this trend

So my order arrived from Originative, I love this set, but I wanted to talk about the key cap tray.
This version of the tray is far better than the older version. The locks are still a pain, clunky, but the trays are solid, way more solid than the others, the keyset stayed I place on shipping.
So I think for storage purposes, this tray is great.

Here's a gmk cyan and sky dolch combo.
I need a decent cam. My phone cam sucks :(Here's a gmk cyan and sky dolch combo.
contrast is too rough
Here's a gmk cyan and sky dolch combo.
i picked up one of these sets. it's actually quite nice, despite the bars. note that it's a pretty dark colorway, and it really has a totally different feeling than dolch. the cyan legends almost look like they glow.

Does anyone have a chance to put some rgb modifiers on the sky dolchie? I really can't decide if it's a yes or a no no...
Can't really get my hands on a classic dolch set with ISO, so wondering if "sky" in sky dolch would play nice with rgb.:)
It does look amazing with ordinary dolch though, so sky symbol colors instead of the white ones should't really stand out...if someone has a chance to try it, please let me know. :thumb:Does anyone have a chance to put some rgb modifiers on the sky dolchie?

I don't think it would look good with RGB, but I think it would look good with CMY[K|W]
Been debating picking up this set.
How well do these resell/trade in case I decide it's not for me?
Got the cyan accent pack!
I really love these, but I cannot justify spending more on the keycaps then the board.
but damn, these look sooooooooooo good...

1u Alt, 1.5u Meta, 6u space bar
Any suggestion :-[?

Where did you get those cyan blanks? Those did not come from the accent pack right?
