This one is a no-brainer. So good!

Just ordered a dyesub set - might add a blank set later.

PS:

The order form says "BPT" set

Ivan, why do you do this to us (my wallet and me)?

Worked up another printed set idea...

Aurebesh:DARKSIDE
Any interest?

I will also be adding the option for a black blank GMK add on pack with ISO enter, 1.5 modifier, 7x space, 1.75 shift, windowed caps locks, and 6x top row windowed keys. I'm just waiting for a price on it and I will add it to the form.

Hmm, honestly I am not a big fan of it. It's just too extravagant for me.

And the fact that I had to google "Aurebesh" to know what it's supposed to be, speaks for itself I think. Maybe I am not nerdy enough, but I have seen the classic Star Wars Triology like 20 times, read a lot of SW books and played many SW video games and still haven't heard of that word before (maybe it's different in German...).

But of course my personal opinion doesn't mean you shouldn't try it! What MOQ are we talking about? Also 400?

The MOQ total is 400, it does not matter how many variations there are to get to that. I may add some other normal font options as well, perhaps something more modern looking than Cherry.

Will there be a Iso/De version?!

winkeyless blank iso would be nice

I was not planning on making any other real language keyset. If enough are interest, more than 20 for some language I can see to make it happen.

Would it be possible to add an Ergodox layout (all blanks, black) to the list?

That would be:
- 60 * 1x1 sized keycaps
- 12 * 1.5x1 sized keycaps
- 4 * 2x1 sized keycaps,

Picture of the keyboard:

An EDox kit I suppose would be best from GMK so could have 1.5 in each proper row profile they are needed in for sculpted key. I think 1x1.5 vertical existed at one point, they might still have them. The big concern is can there be 400 EDox kits sold?

GMK blank EDOX and standard add on adapter packs now available.

PBT is almost there

So the ISO adapter pack is just ABS?
I would love some black on charcoal keycaps for the upcoming Novatouch, but I am still unsure.

I'd like to know that, too. I'd like to replace my ISO key caps with PBT keys but I don't really want any ABS keys thrown in there as well.

The add on packs are ABS from GMK because the PBT factory doesn't have molds for those particular keys. I realize mix material may not be ideal, but it is that or nothing.

Ah, that's what I'd thought. Fair enough, I'll leave it for now then.

Cheers

Damn thats sad. 100€ for a "not-so-perfect" keycap-set is too much for me sadly.

We are working to convince to make those molds for PBT on their cost... but it's not any easy task to convince them it is worthwhile. I hope in the future it becomes possible, but I do not know when/if it can happen.

I like the idea but I want ISO keys

this

You can have ISO... just in ABS for now in add on pack. Add on pack also have winkeyless and nice windowed lock key. Even though it is ABS, it will be nice color match so it looks right together.

I don't mind them being ABS but as always we'll never met the 400 amount needed. GMK need to low that or we won't be able to buy from them.

For whatever reason GMK don't reduce the MOQ for blank and windowed keys only doubleshots.

Is there any feedback after completing the form? (i.e. before 1st of March)

The form tell you the order is recorded... otherwise no. I can always check order if needed.

Another question: Are there any keycaps that can be compared to this set? I would like to know how it would look like in reallife. Does it look like the HHKB charcoal caps?

Yes they will look very similar to the dark topre keycaps.

Are these compatible with Cherry stabilizers? Just got the G80 I ordered and learned of the difference between Cherry and Costar stabs
