« Last post by cartersrush on Mon, 27 July 2026, 11:55:46 »


Inspired by the Grass Valley VPE series keyboards made by Cherry from the 80s/90 for video editing.My design combines the best elements from three keyboards the  VPE 151, 141 and Sabre Edit making it more cohesive. Stock GMK colours are used and features side print!

Thank you all for the diggin, it was interesting !

Sorry for you @LightningXI, Blue Alert is my only set with 1.25 centered ISO keycaps so I gave the impression of a technical issue.

 

No worries at all. I learned something new. I will have to make sure that any future sets I run are consistent with these conventions and accurate to however they are rendered.

Keyboards / Re: Help/opinions building my mechanical keyboard
« Last post by nextleveloutreach on Mon, 27 July 2026, 09:05:08 »
Building a custom mechanical keyboard is all about finding the right balance between switches, stabilizers, keycaps, and your typing preferences. I'd recommend deciding whether you want a smooth linear feel, tactile feedback, or clicky switches before buying parts, as changing them later can get expensive. As someone interested in tech projects, I also enjoy reading about startup ideas and recently came across some useful information on free llc formation for anyone thinking about turning a hobby into a business someday.

Building a business around mechanical keyboards is a great idea, especially with the growing demand for custom switches, keycaps, and accessories. Success often comes from offering quality products, good customer support, and staying active within the keyboard community. I also enjoy reading about technology and business trends on TechBizInsider, which regularly shares useful insights on innovation and the tech industry.

Please give us a regular mod colored ISO Enter and move r1 PgDn and End keys from base to numpad kit since those are used for 1800 layouts.
What Fraaaan said makes sense; I'd also prefer a mod-colored ISO Enter over an accent one (and if I wanted it, I could pick up the novelties kit). The R1 PgDn, End suggestion also tracks. Otherwise, the kitting looks pretty good to me, though I do have one suggestion:

Consider adding a R3 1u cherry key to the novelties kit. Since there are already 1u cherries on R1, R2, R4, you'd be able to fill out a whole right column on 65%/75% boards with cherries, which would look pretty cool in my opinion.

+1 for GMK

Have you considered pbt, like pbt voir. That was a really good set with sparkles
