Is Retro/*/Orange gonna happen?

[Forin]

I need:
 white letters on grey keycaps - cylindrical PBT - 1980s-style off-center letters, top-left - ALPHA+FUNCTION12+SPACE kits*
 *

 How do I code colors?

 RETRO/ALPHA/GREY
 RETRO/FUNCTION12
 RETRO/SPACE

?
 *
 What about \| keycap - will it fit Ducky/Filco?

[Zehkul]

so can i order a blank white pbt set for my 105 key uk filco? What is the script for it and how much is it? The wiki doesn't mention a lot about the blank key sets.

BLANKPBT/BLANKSTD/WHITE
BLANKPBT/BLANKJRET/WHITE
BLANK/SPACE/WHITE

Or whatever color you want the spacebar to be.

BLANKPBT/BLANKSTD/WHITE

Don't forget R3 and R4 keys (you guys always forget them!) and also the left Shift:

[Tarkoon]

Don't forget R3 and R4 keys (you guys always forget them!) and also the left Shift:

In the wiki are picture from blank TENKLESS and TERM kits, but not from BLANKSTD.
If you compare to the pictures of the labeled STD kits or the blank TENKLESS kit in the wiki, there could be spare caps for row 3 and 4 included in BLANKSTD.
But that is not for sure, because BLANKTKL does not exist as picture in the wiki. Nobody knows (except 7bit) what is included exactly.
The short left shift is also included in the wiki picture of the blank TENKLESS kit and the labeled STD kits, so who knows if it is in BLANKSTD as well?
The BLANK kits need an official documentation!

[Elrick]

Poor 7bit,

I do not envy him one bit.  He has taken on a humongous task of giving advice and taking a lot of orders.

I hope he has a much more pleasant but prosperous 2012, with a little less stress placed on him by us requesting for evermore keycaps.

Cheers, buddy.

[kps]

You can have mine.

Just remember me every day until we finished the shipping and then once again when your key caps arrived except the A-F keys.

Of course; I already remember you every day when I check the wiki pages for intersting updates.

[Zehkul]

They're not needed!
http://deskthority.net/wiki/File:BLANKSTD.png
There even are 2 row 4 keys, for unlucky ISO steelseries guys, I think. Should be removed, imo, it's no problem to order additional keys for blank sets. But there needs to be another row 3 key, to replace all 3 nub keys for ISO Layouts.

In the wiki are picture from blank TENKLESS and TERM kits, but not from BLANKSTD.

They're all there, it's just quite messy, BLANKSTD is not where the other two are.

My mistake!

I'm ordering BLANKTKL and I didn't realize that BLANKSTD comes with those extra keys. Thanks for correcting me.

[Adelhyde]

A couple quick questions for 7bit...

Is there any order option that will let me get just the symbol keys for the numeric keypad in the RETRO style? In other words, I want to have the arrows and the PgUp/PgDn/Home/End/Ins/Del on the keypad, but I don't want to get the symbol keys outside the numeric keypad.

Also, does RETRO/RGB include a red-lettered Row 3 Ctrl key to replace the Caps Lock?

Thanks.

The arrows on the number pad are includedin RETRO, NOIR and ORANJE.
RETRO/RGB: I think so, just look it up in the wiki.

I'm going through the blank orders and will skip YELLOW for PBT because there are too few orders.

Code: [Select]


BLANKPBT/R3U100/YELLOW.........1
BLANKPBT/R4U125/YELLOW.........4
BLANKPBT/R4U100/YELLOW.........5
BLANKPBT/R1U100C/YELLOW........1

BLANKPBT/BLANKTKL/YELLOW.......1
BLANKPBT/R1U100CX/YELLOW.......1
BLANKPBT/BLANKJRET/YELLOW......1

A BLANKPBT/BLANKTKL/YELLOW would cost much more than $100.

I just calculated the price for row 1 and 2 1-unit keys: $60.63

Code: [Select]

BLANKPBT/R3U100/LIGHTBLUE......1
BLANKPBT/R4U100/LIGHTBLUE......1

BLANKPBT/R3U100C/LIGHTBLUE.....2
BLANKPBT/BLANKTKL/LIGHTBLUE....1
BLANKPBT/R1U100CX/LIGHTBLUE....1
BLANKPBT/BLANKJRET/LIGHTBLUE...1

^^^Exactly the same situation here.
87 keys, all 1 unit wide would cost at least $150.

Oh, those are my orders

Can you give a list of ordered BLANKPBT so that I can pick cheaper colors?

[7bit]

There are not really cheap colors.

I suggest that someone else who loves blanks organises a blank key group buy.

I will keep black, white and blue (if it is the same blue as \KL's group buy, there might be some people who want it).

I will also skip RETRORED:

Code: [Select]

BLANK/BLANKMOD/RETRORED........1
BLANK/R4U100/RETRORED..........1
BLANK/R4U175/RETRORED..........1

Price quote for the remaining blanks?

[zulios]

What will happen of orange blanks ? Skipped as well ?

[7bit]

What will happen of orange blanks ? Skipped as well ?

BLANK/R3U100/ORANGE...........25
BLANK/RXU100/ORANGE............1
BLANK/SPACE/ORANGE.............1
ROUND3/SPACE/ORANGE...........11
ORANJE/SPACE..................14

Yes, these all be available, but a bit expensive.

There are no styles with orange backgrounds, so price will be around $4 per key for the BLANK/R3U100/ORANGE keys.

The 4 row 1,2 and 4 keys of BLANK/RXU100/ORANGE will be a bit more expensive ...

[7bit]

Price quote for the remaining blanks?

I will throw out most of the colors which are not background colors for existing styles.

The blanks are a real pain ...

[zulios]

price will be around $4 per key for the BLANK/R3U100/ORANGE keys.

Ouch. I won't be able to follow up with such a price increase, and I guess that reducing the quantity would make things even worse.
Better forget about it and avoid you more trouble handling these.

[JSchool]

There is no RGBY option for Round 3, correct?  The picture in the other Dolch thread kind of made me want them.

[Surly73]

If it's not too late, I'm interested in ordering a couple of spacebars to replace mine developing shine from round 3.  I ONLY want spacebars that will match my round 3 set (dolch grey etc...).

Would this be:

ROUND3/SPACE
EMAIL .....

and that's it?  It won't automatically add a full set of keys or anything?

Thx,.

[zulios]

No it won't. Do not forget to put your email adress for a first order.

[BimboBB]

is it still possible to put in a new order?

[tradet]

Yes order away.

That's right, if you want 2 spacebars, put in:

ROUND3/SPACE 2
EMAIL .....

You can order multiple copies of an item by putting a number after it.

[Adelhyde]

Thanks 7bit, just one more question. Is the dark gray color of the modifier keys in RETRO the same as the color of the modifiers in the Soware kit, as pictured below? The RETRO keys look quite a bit darker.

[ Attachment Invalid Or Does Not Exist ] 36505[/ATTACH]

[Findecanor]

I had asked the same question before, and got the reply:

I'm unsure about the light grey, but the dark grey surely is not SoWaRe-compatible.

[Adelhyde]

Thanks, kind of puts me off the Retro set, though. The relatively low contrast is what makes the Soware set look so cool. The GSC plastic color would be much closer to the original. Is there any way an American can order the Soware set from OTD?

No, it isn't!

Reason: I did not want to copy it.


Sorry that things go so slow, but there are too much* options!

I get through all available kits and prepare for the order-lists. Once these are finished, I will start to collect money.

If there is someone located in the US who can handle PayPal payments and also is able to pay Signature Plastics, please contact me!!!

------------------------------
*) No, many would be wrong here because the set** of options is uncountable!

**) Also, in reality, it is no set.

[kaen]

Hi 7bit, i updated my order the other day and ive yet to recieve an email from the bot, just want to make sure my order is correct.

[Elrick]

Yes, same here, but don't forget that they are swamped with so many orders.  Hence it will take time for them to go through them all.

[dorkvader]

What set contains that tiny "return" key on that 7bit phantom mockup you have? I basically want to make that.

http://deskthority.net/wiki/File:Phantom_7BIT_002.png

Is there any chance for a spherical glider?

[Kurk]

Hi 7bit,
a few questions before this group buy hits its dead line...
What's the shape of the vertical RxU200V keys? Take for instance a R2U200V cap; I assume its top will fit in row 2 and its bottom half in row 3. At least SignaturePlastic's DCS family seems to have 1/1, 1/2, 2/3, 3/4 and 4/4 shapes (http://www.solutionsinplastic.com/pdfs/DCSFamily.pdf).

What about SPH verticals, how do they look like, what shapes are available? Also, are there 1.5 units vertical keys (for Dox custom split ergo keyboard http://geekhack.org/showthread.php?22780-Interest-Check-Custom-split-ergo-keyboard).

Cheers!

I'm also interested in this. I've been assuming that the x in RxU200V is the lower-number row. The 4/4 version, which corresponds to a conventional keypad Enter key, is what Kinesis uses for the Space and BackSpace thumb keys. I've ordered a dozen for my own split project and would be ecstatic if you guys bought enough to bring the price down :-)

My impression from the SA pdf is that there are no verticals in that family. (I doubt there are 1.5u verticals in any profile.)

I expect 7bit would set up an ERGODOX kit if there are likely to be more than a couple orders, and people can agree on what goes in it.

There is a return for row 4 in MODIFIER125.

Also, there is a PHANTOM kit with yet unspecified content which should contain keys like the 1.25 units row 3 RETURN.

How many of the glider will you take? Which row, which size?

Vertical 2 unit keys will be like + and enter depending on their starting row.

+ is row 2 and Enter is row 4.

For sphericals, the vertical keys are row 3.

You can mount a 1.5 units spherical key in any direction you want.

You can use a (1 unit) V as < or > or ^ .

[kps]

Just a note on the FUNCTION sets — neither USB nor any PS/2 scancode set supports anything above F24.

[Autolyze]

Also, there is a PHANTOM kit with yet unspecified content which should contain keys like the 1.25 units row 3 RETURN.

Would the combination of the STANDARD, PHANTOM, and SPACE7BIT kits be sufficient to cover every key on the 7bit Phantom?

[mithinza]

7bit. Do You mind if I ask you a question?

What is the current state of amount of the total order? and, when is the current deadline?

(Sorry, I am not good English composition skills)

[Culinia]

I also have some questions and of course is determined by the previous poster's questions (since if the deadline has ended then obvious ignore the rest hehe), so if I may...

1. For confirmation: does the space bar work on Leopold? - Last round as I understood they did not have the tools to make it compatible, so assuming they have fixed it and it is ok now?

SPACE    1    2   6.25 units Filco/Cherry/Leopold

2. Can I order a full Colemak and UK set in preferably noir style? Although I will consider any available set. Sorry, I am not sure what colemak sets/if any are accepted, last time I checked only 1 person ordered anything colemak so I assumed that it was not going forward.

2a. Does the Colemak set include the backspace key in the QWERTY-Caps Lock position?

Ok, thanks for any help

[Forin]

I just need grey keycaps like in this picture.

Dark grey, white letters.

ALPHA/FUNCTION12/SPACE kits.

Please tell me how my order should look like.

This keycaps are for Filco.

Just swapped in the Dolch number row as well.  I thought it looked kind of weird before.  Just realized that it was because the number row was missing.  And now, featuring Creeper!

Thanks Litster..

[Oxblood]

NOIR/GAMER/RED  does this have white or black font?

[Elrick]

Just need to find out from others here, has anyone tried sending their order request to "7bit_r4" yet?

I know it's the bot that registers your order, but for the last 4 days I can not get a response from it.  Does that mean the Round Four orders are now finished?

Has anyone sent off their order and got a response from it accepting your choice in the last day or so?

Damn, just when I had the money and the choice selected........I miss out, yet again.

yes orders are still open, no one has even begun collecting money for this, or even finalized what all is available to order, there's still a possibility of kits being removed or changed.  And depending on what you tried ordering it might not even be available for order anymore, is it on the price list?

[Elrick]

And depending on what you tried ordering it might not even be available for order anymore, is it on the price list?

Yeah, I have tried to place the order below, but if you think it's wrong please let me know;

NOIR/SYMBOLS
NOIR/STDSYM
NOIR/SPACE
RETRO/STANDARD
RETRO/SPACE
RETRO/RGBY
SPH/STDRGBY
SPH/SPACE

But I do not get a response from the bot.  So I thought that maybe they are finished with the orders......

There is nothing complicated just 3 distinct keycap sets with two sets having RGBY colouring.

The price list is out of date; things that are still on it disappeared from my order yesterday. Hoping for an update soon....
