deskthority

i have ordered MX Locks and RGB Blues and all of them are pre-order stuffs

and its stated 9/2014 on the OP

i would like to know does this means that i can expect to receive them in close future?
cuz im not quite sure if they have reached the MOQ or not

taihao salesperson has replied me about the issue

they will produce new spacebar immediately and will send them out to me in 2 days

so our progress should not be delayed for too long!

well....
i just discovered that all the 7x spacebar has a wrong colour....
also, they have given us the old 7x spacebar which is the non-amended one that doesnt fit cherry keyboard
taihao sales is now confirming about this
might have to wait for the new spacebar

ARRIVED

gonna show u guys samples later on
gotta go post office to deal with the mailboxes and bubblemailer first

will sort and ship them out

expect to finish all of them in two weeks

Thanks for your help Iacoizumi!

I will try my best to update at dt asap too!

As order has already been placed, taihao will finish producing keycaps on around 22th September

Will update this thread as soon as keycaps has arrived!
thx for everyone's support

If you are confused with the 2 invoices sent,
it is caused by the miscalculation of mine to have put the 4.4% in the wrong place...

the following are the instruction if you dont know what to do now


For those who have already paid:
as there are only a really small batch of orders that has already ...

Please check your order information (and also the total sum needed to be paid) before I start sending out invoices.

The total sum is calculated this way:

Now
All the orders will be proceeded as taihao accepted to lower all the MOQ to 100

but the price of add-on set will be raised to $6
and the 2 1.25x window key will be removed as we now have better looking window key now

also, not only \|, ~# is now also included rather than a blank key

invoice ...

i thought thats just a fake window logo?

btw taihao said they can provide 1x |\ and do not need extra in substituting with the blank key we are having now

still waiting for their confirmation on whether our other than doesnt meet their MOQ will be accepted or not

i will appear when there's update!
as the deadline is near, i had contact with taihao salesperson again
to see if they can accept our order that doesnt meet their MOQ now

got a good news from her though is that they have got a new winkey

This would be really interesting! And I'm problaby going to buy a set.
But just a few questions.
So diodes are presoldered on PCB? And they support NKRO?
You solder backlight LED by yourself? Problaby because of colour choice?
Do you program controller by yourself or is there a pre made firmware ...

Taihao sales has not yet reply me
maybe its becuz they are having their exhibition Computex Taipei 2014

I will update here once they contacted me

may i ask how can i add tracking to my order>?

couldnt find info from round 5 wiki

Also, this case is different from the Alu case, is this an option or just a testbed for the sample board?

Thats the Chinese Version 77

as we are redesigning the PCB to fit ISO layout also, we need to get the sample of the new design again to ensure everything works fine before we mass produce

here i am 8-)

looks like it came together pretty well!

i have a couple questions:

is there enough interest in this to continue onward with it as a group buy?
&
if so what kind of timeline are we looking at?

I am still under preparation for this groupbuy
ensuring all the sources to be able to ...

here i am 8-)

Anodizing sample is gonna arrive soon
Im gonna take better picture of them before uploading

Blue and Gold anodizing option will be added in our groupbuy

After the modifications,this board shall not be called value-edition
as i think it has it own specialties and can stand toe-to-toe ...

Sorry for the late reply, i was too busy organizing the DIY keyboard pack and other stuff in my reality life.

and I have no idea why gmail stopped notifying me replies here.

Im gonna reply all the quesitons in a minute ...

I like this, especially the DSA one

Red one Black / White will be nice

or on the dark dolch colour as i think meets the demand of the dsa dolch owners
it matches the colour scheme and still looks good

but i think this will only be possible if we are going for doubleshot rite

5 unit space bar? Now that would be something!

yea actually taihao has quite a lot of special stuff

they can make alps caps too!

but it will be too much for us to put all of them in one groupbuy :lol:

the price of taihao has been raise for $7 since last gb
it will lose its attractive price if ...

i am undecided between the row 3 function kit row 1 function kit leftovers:(

i will be using them on my tipro mid 96 and it seems that row 3 SA in a matrix would look better and type better on it.

but the row 1 kit has greater value... with more keys and in a cheaper price.
seems like it is a ...

yes cuz they dont have the mould

You may well be right, but are you 100% certain?

A single unit \| key is needed for UK layout keyboards (and possibly other layouts as well). Many years ago Tai-Hao used to supply keycaps to a number of major keyboard manufacturers. If they ever produced a UK ...

yes cuz they dont have the mould

Hi, I'm very interested in the Dolch set. It's nice to see a doubleshot group buy that isn't insanely overpriced for a change.

However, can I make a few suggestions:

On most (all?) ISO keyboards, the single unit key to the left of the ISO enter key generates the same scan code as the wide \| key ...

it's for the substitution of the bottom row 1.25

if u actually need a fn key rather than a menu key
or if u think the fake window key is too ugly to be on your board

Sixty is correct

It's not a complete window logo

But it's still a double shot keycap

thx kbdfr,

i will keep your words in mind and try to not annoy the others in the future:D
and it's good to learn things in a tough way

DT is a respected community and i feel that i am insignificant here.
I think I need a little bit of time to get use to it.

[…] you can apply the whole set on MUCH more keyboard and have better reselling potential […]

Is making money going to be the new rationale for taking part in a group buy?
I do hope this will not spread from GH to DT.

Off-topic again?
Sure, off-topic again!
:evil:

I am sorry if I have done ...
