Double shot replacements ROUND THREE: Vote for Kits & Quantities!

[kidchunks]

So it will be all ABS.

Saw the post before reading my pm. Thanks for finding out! :biggrin:

[7bit]

Sorry for not sending out the invoices today. I will have finished at least the part where the amounts already paid get into the updated invoices by tomorrow.

[HungryPillow]

OK I am by no means a keyboard expert so after seeing the list on ordering blanks I am a bit overwhelmed.

How should my order look like if I just want every key in the main typing area in PBT white?

So that would be ~ to BACKSPACE, TAB to \, CAPSLOCK to ENTER, LEFT SHIFT to RIGHT SHIFT, and LEFT CTRL to RIGHT CTRL.

It may depend on what kind of keyboard you have, but for Filco/Ducky/Leopold (Maybe even Das, correct me if I am wrong)

~ to BACKSPACE = row 1
TAB to \ = row 2
CAPSLOCK to ENTER = row 3, (don't forget a pair of homing bar, or bump keys to replace your f and j if you want those)
LEFT SHIFT to RIGHT SHIFT = row 4

LEFT CTRL to RIGHT CTRL = row 4 (depending on what kind of keyboard you have)

see the posts on the previous two pages for listing of key sizes in "units".

To read the SP chart, 301657 DCS - 1.5X ROW 1 - YELLOW (YCJ)
That is part number, DCS is the form factor of the keys (for Filco/Ducky/Leopold and some others) - 1.5 is the unit length (This could be tab key) and it fits row 1, but your tab probably matches row 2).

Thanks 7-bit for the pics.  When do you want paid for my order?

[guilleguillaume]

I think I definetely will pass over the Blank Keycaps and instead get the POS and ONEHALFMOD for the Nopoo and a WHITEONBLUE set.

[Kacee]

I give up, don't know what do they do with their inventory, I tried several combination but can't come up with any matching set of PBT DCS for my Tenkeyless

It doesn't appear that any full single color set of keys can be produced from their stock, because that is what I was hoping for too.  It was nice of them to offer for those who just want a few off-color keys, though.

[Exoverture]

Does anyone know approximately when this is planned to get finished in production, and starting to get shipped out?

[JinDesu]

I'm gonna wait a little to see if the blank keys can be produced... otherwise I won't have anything to buy

[n12]

There will be blanks produced. See first page which colors. The blue will be a light blue.

To clear things up a bit!

[Kacee]

If they are going to produce new blank keys, will they be PBT or ABS?

[Twitchy]

ABS

[7bit]

ABS

ACK.

Otherwise, there would be color-matching issues with the space bars which are only available in ABS.

[Garry]

One of my keyboards I want to get some keycaps for is a Steelseries 7g.

It has a pretty strange enter key and a small backspace key. I've looked through all the options and I can't find a match for the enter key.

Are any of the kits compatible?

LRET is what you need.

[JinDesu]

I'm looking under the parts list for the ABS and do not see the row 4 1.25s at all. They only appear in the PBT list. If we are limited to ABS only, how do I order the 1.25 keycaps?

Also, for example, if I want row 1 size 1 orange keys, the part number is 300594. However, there is no available selection for row 2 size 1 orange keys. What do I write in the order so these will be produced? Or...

Am I completely silly and just confused and can leave my blank set votes?

Sorry for requiring so much help; I haven't been able to keep up with this thread because of work.

[7bit_vote]

There is a big-ass L-shape return key available. But currently there is only one
vote for it.

If anybody is interested, please vote

LRET 1

or more if you like!

Thanks!

I will update all invoices today.

[Twitchy]

I could be wrong but the I think that ABS limitation applies to complete sets because Signature Plastics do not have the tools to make PBT spacebars with the DCS profile. I guess if you order from the parts list you're free to order whichever material or profile they have in stock (with the caveat that PBT and ABS colours may not match exactly with each other, or anything else you have).

That's right isn't it 7bit?

That's right. The measures for the PBT tools must be off a bit to allow the shrinking material to have the correct measures afterwards.

I've got you in the list which I got from iMav.

It shows $19.75 USD.

I know that the in-stock blank keys are missing, because I did not yet finish the script for that.

You are the only one who has got that stuff on his list anyway...

Sorry for not including the shipping costs ...

edit: did you send a CLEARALL in the meantime, ie after payment?

[Broncosoozie]

I just got an invoice that includes blank keys in the list, should we be holding off until you finish the script that accounts for the in-stock keys, or should we just pay now and if it's cheaper/more expensive then sort that out when it comes to it?

If you want keys which SP has got in stock, just send me the part numbers followed by quantity. If you don't plan to order more stuff, just send iMav all your money. Brazil is more expansive these days ...

just reminding you to fix that negative balance, it might confuse the noobies even more now

I understand about the blanks, just waiting patiently in my house.

P.S. I did not CLEARALL or do anything to my vote list after sending in my payment, only added those blanks.

[Ekaros]

Added some blanks... More cost on this venture... I need more cherry boards...

Yep, I could pass the modifier caps and JRET for the crazy price, but not the others...

BTW, can these kind of caps be dye sublimated? Might be intresting idea in some time future

[Culinia]

Have not had an invoice yet today (but had 2 vote statistics) -- hope everything is ok as I already sent in my money.

[7bit_vote]

Those 2 where @ $18 and are now available @ $16. If you already paid, you have $2 to spend on something else.

Red kit ..................... $16 / 15 (RED)
White on Blue kit ........... $16 / 15 (WHITEONBLUE)

Awesome face was $6 now $5:
... white on red ............. $5 / 20 (AWESOMERED)


Keyboard key (support needed, 5 are too few!)
... black on red ............ $15 / 5 (KEYBOARDBLACKONRED)
... white on red ............. $6 / 15 (KEYBOARDRED)

You did not change your votes, so there was no reason to send an invoice

I received my invoice today but the price of the WHITEONBLUE says:

WHITEONBLUE  |Gamer kit                        |   18| 1| 27.00| 18.00 $


So be careful those ones who chose the kits with actual disccount.

You should look that everybody received the correct prices, or everybody should look careful at them ( this second choice it's easier).

Finally to be sure the TROLLFACES keycaps were impossible to do by SP? I removed them from the vote because I ended thinking that.

Just updated the prices. I will send out new invoices to everybody who is involved in the price-drop, today.

Sorry for that. I should have looked up the number of votes for those kits before sending the invoices.

ps: Yes, the trollface is officially dead, at least as a double-shot key ...

If we can assure them we will order really sooon now, it can still go for a while.

I've added more to my order and now far exceed the 250 limit on shipping, do I need to add another worldwide shipping manually or will your script handle that?

I will handle that.

Thanks for your order.

383 keys require 2 boxes which is BTW cheaper than the next larger box:

USA ............. $10.95 (10.50=2*5.25)
CAN/MEX ... $27.95 (24.00=2*12.00)
World ........... $45.50 (28.00=2*14.00)

So I just add 14$ more for my next payment?

[digitalleftovers]

Invoice has been paid.  Thank you 7bit.

[guilleguillaume]

7bit I actually forgot to vote SHIPWW to shipping worldwide. Do you need the vote before I send you my shipping address to e-mail?

I'm located in Europe so I'm suposed to pay the Keycaps price plus the 14$ shipping costs when paying via paypal to iMav but just to be sure you don't actually need the vote or in the other hand you need the SHIPWW 1 vote.

[7bit]

I would not complain. I really have to check those quantities, BTW!

But now, back to something else:

For the Enter keycap, the legend can be either in the upper portion (1.5xspace) or in the vertical leg (vertical 2x key size).
1.5x - 0.731" x 0.427" (18.56mm x 10.84mm)
2x vertical - 0.427" x 1.106" (10.84x28.09mm)

Price would be $9/10 and $6/15 which is quite a surprise. These are relatively cheap.

Probably too tired, can't make sense of that one, still same rules apply but scale is larger? Also would this be white on black(mod-color), if anyone cares to do it...

[guilleguillaume]

Well. Last vote with shipping to world wide updated just for doing things right way.

Will wait until you can make next invoices with my SHIPWW 1 updated for me to send you shipping address and then pay.

Sorry for the inconveniences 7bit!
