GMK DOLCH [COMPLETE]

[nobee]

Please all if want to make changes just resubmit the form if your previous order link isn't working. Your old order will be replaced with your new order.

Ivan,

Please forgive my extreme ignorance here but whereabouts have you posted a link to the current orders that were placed?  I would like to check what I have ordered to see if I need to get any more GMK goodness before the deadline hits me.

Just don't want to miss out on anything here.  Thanks  .

Why don't you just resubmit a new form with everything you want? He says it'll just replace the old one.

Okay sent in another form, got some more of these sets.  I hope this baby goes over in all the sections because all these key-sets look superb  .

[skuko]

guys, can any1 link me to a comparison between GMK ABS and imsto PBT thickness?

i have these


and i would like to check the thickness compared to GMK ABS, before i jump on this dolch wagon

[gigibecali]

[skuko]

whoa, so the GMK doubleshots are even thicker? i really hope they will fit the costars good :X

I have a few GMK sets and all of them work perfectly with costar stabs, so I don't think you have anything to worry about.

[IvanIvanovich]

Yes they are about same thick and of course the profile is same. GMK/Cherry doubleshot generally don't have issue with costar stabilizer as ABS is not prone to warp like PBT. I think that is reason a lot of have problem with PBT as if you look on the longer keys they are often slightly bowed on the side wall which catches. It's not even only problem with imsto's but can be on BSP or Cherry vintage PBTs too. It's not really the thickness that is issue.

I think it was Ivan's first or second GB. Long time ago  :blank:

yeah now that you mention it, i do think that enter, shifts and spacebar have the top and bottom sides a bit bent.

from classifieds, can't remember anymore :)

[demsix]

Ordered.

[Limewirelord]

In for a base set, color set, and two spare spacebars.

[bazh]

so sad that people don't go for Fn'A


incase Fn'A's not gonna make it, I'll change for another color set

[jinq-sea]

I CANNOT WAIT FOR THIS. Ordered over on DT.

[kekstee]

My early euphoric reaction has turned kind of stale after I noticed there is no real ISO set supported. :/

[swill]

My early euphoric reaction has turned kind of stale after I noticed there is no real ISO set supported. :/

Define real ISO support?

[LechnerDE]

My early euphoric reaction has turned kind of stale after I noticed there is no real ISO set supported. :/

What do you mean? All the 4 ISO keys are there!

Or did you expect QWERTZ legends? That's just not doable with GMK, unless you find another 250 Germans that want to spent ~100 Euro on keycaps...

I'd be one of them though

[kekstee]

UK legends would have been nice. But yeah, I guess I will order anyway, getting all shift and enter keys is nice already.

[geniekid]

Order more ODD packs please so I can get my R3 control.  Thank you.

[tribade]

Order more ODD packs please so I can get my R3 control.  Thank you.

Amen brother. Don't need no R4 control.

[IvanIvanovich]

There is GB legends in this set for ISO, it's sideprinted on the ANSI keys. Assuming this buy makes it through which I think it will at this point... I plan to do some other language like DE (or whatever has the next biggest user share) as secondary side print for whatever colorway on the next set.
I think this approach with side printed secondary legends is the best way for other languages as it doesn't add cost to the majority of ANSI user while still bringing support to others without having MOQ issue for minority language key.

[Zeal]

Perhaps an updated order count would push more orders in? 

[IvanIvanovich]

COLOR pack has reached MOQ! BASE and extra spacebar don't have too far to go.

[pix3l_fodder]

Ivan if you do a language pack could you put in proper GB keys into one? As much as i appreciate the effort I'm not a fan of the side print, especially as GB users have a duplicate key.

[cooldiscretion]

I see many people have ordered additional spacebars.  Can someone explain why? The base pack comes with both sizes, why is it desirable to have > 1 of each size?

[ranker]

Placed my order of 2 sets.  Great work fellas, this is an amazing set.

[strict]

I see many people have ordered additional spacebars.  Can someone explain why? The base pack comes with both sizes, why is it desirable to have > 1 of each size?

ABS can wear down somewhat quick, especially on very commonly used keys like the spacebar, so some people buy extras to swap the worn ones out.

[minho]

Cheap replacements as spacebar shines the fastest.

[swill]

ABS has a tendency to shin after extended use.  The spacebar is the first key to shine, so you can replace it with an non-shiny one if you get a second set of spacebars...

[LechnerDE]

I see many people have ordered additional spacebars.  Can someone explain why? The base pack comes with both sizes, why is it desirable to have > 1 of each size?

Because usually the spacebar is the first key to develop shine. At least that's the reason for me

[IvanIvanovich]

The extra 6.25 spacebar may also be wanted by people that have other Cherry sets taken from G80/G81. Since the old ones are not stem compatible with Filco, CM, Ducky et al. It might not color match with other sets, but having a useable profile matching space may be more important to some.

[cooldiscretion]

Thanks everyone, looks like I may have to get some additional spacebars as well then.

[iamtootallforthis]

Really looking forward to getting this set.

[Sir Bagel]

Are the modifiers on Dolch black or a dark charcoal grey?

[LechnerDE]

No, they are not black - just some dark grey.

[Naga]

Nice!!!

I ordered a base and a color set. RIP in pepperonis my wallet.

EDIT: I forgot about the extra spacebar set I ordered.

[danielucf]

Ordered some stuff. Wish I needed a 3rd set of Dolch but I hardly use one set at a time as is *shrug*

[Wildcard]

I just decided to order a set to compare it to my vintage sets.

[Grendel]

Ordered.

[IvanIvanovich]

Everything should be identical barring differences in some legends and patina on old sets.

[danielucf]

I just decided to order a set to compare it to my vintage sets.

I have an original, and an originative. If I sell some stuff or come into some money I may pick up a third should the group buy be in need.

[SSIPAK]

will this include 6u spacebar for fc660? Thanks.

[LechnerDE]

will this include 6u spacebar for fc660? Thanks.

No, GMK only has molds for 6.25x and 7.00x spacebars.

As shown in the mockups in the OP the spacebars will be light grey.

I apology, I meant the modifiers not spacebar.

[intelli78]

Ivan, can you confirm that placing another order will overwrite your previous one? I'd like to add some things to my order, want to make sure things are updated properly.

He's said it here:

Please all if want to make changes just resubmit the form if your previous order link isn't working. Your old order will be replaced with your new order.

If you're asking about adding a new order, it should follow the same premise (at least that's the case for me whenever I deal with GB google docs)
