GMK / Cherry doubleshot modifier packs (complete?)

[chromiumstars]

SO COOL.

I sent you a request for a couple singles, Ivan...Got my CMYKs in a different part of the state, they are slated to be here MONDAY. WHOO!

I think majority pink keys with the cmy modifiers + caps lock + windows key + rightclick menu/fn in purple will be SO fun. Mine will be unique for sure

[Broadmonkey]

I for one never quite liked back lit key caps with translucent legends because the support flanges on the inside are always visible.That is why I like windowed caps, as they usually have a smaller and more homogenous lighting. Is it possible to have it matte or semi-opaque to scatter the light more?

I guess they can do it in any degree of translucent/opaque as Ivan said they could get most plastic colors we wanted. it would also be cool to do it in a opaque white instead of the regular white, that way it would be backlight supportive (to some degree) while not looking like it.
I think clear will look better with GMK than SP, since the keys are thicker which probably hides the flanges on the inside a bit.

Cherry caps don't have what i understand as flanges on the underside, they only have those strengthening fins but are flush otherwise.

Cherry/GMK doubleshots do have stripes on the inner side, I think that's what Broadmonkey means. Look at the picture of the Geekhack keys for what I mean by "stripes".

[IvanIvanovich]

Yes, the first shot/second shot lines. I know Cherry had some that were a big block where the legend was, not stripes. Perhaps GMK has those and can hand pick those only? I don't know... I will see what I can find out and if I can get a sample key to see for ourselves before jumping the deep end.
I was thinking of putting in some of these kind of experiment keys, windowed keys, etc. if we do the white/purple nav/function/numpad pack. Maybe some alternates like 1.75 C row Control, B row caps locks, WASD or rows C,D cursor arrows, maybe a couple other.

So...here's my Ducky Shine 2

With the CMYK's... ^______^

Ivan, thanks again for doing this, and for letting me participate as a newbie!

So so excited. Very excited for the purple singles I've bought for the Winkeys and the right click menu/fn key, too!

We're getting always closer to it...

Sweet caps kbdfr!

[IvanIvanovich]

It's fun seeing these keycaps on all sorts of different keyboards.
Sorry kbdfr, I don't think GMK offers that keycap profile...

[7bit]

Not the profile, but the colors match!

[Broadmonkey]

I've heard it's Ivans secret plan to make us go through sets until we can finally combine them and make the handarbeit candy keyboard set

[Halvar]

No no, the Handarbeit GB is over here.

[rindorbrot]

Woohoo, shipping notice!

[pheo]

I got shipping notice too, thank you very much IvanIvanovich for the effort you are putting on all of this.

[usopia]

I got shipping notice too, thank you very much IvanIvanovich for the effort you are putting on all of this.

+1, looking forward.

Thanks Ivan & Flynn.

[Jmneuv]

let the customs games begin.. 1 week or 6 weeks what'll it be

[usopia]

The DSA-Retro shipment was very fast, 10 days!
In another order, I'm now waiting for over three weeks but that's not unusual.

[Grond]

Got my Esc pack, thanks!
Those GMK keycaps look so much better than Signature Plastics. I'm looking forward to other GBs! Also the CMYK turned out much better than I expected, maybe next time it could be remade with white legends for even better match to white on black doubleshots.

[IvanIvanovich]

There are still 18 order left to send, but I ran out of mailers so if you haven't got a shipment notice with a tracking via paypal yet you are probably one of those people. There will be a short delay few days for me to send those out while I wait for the mailers I ordered to arrive to me. Sorry.

[Broadmonkey]

Got my order today. The CMYK set is beyond some of the best I have seen in conjunction with a white-on-black keyset, and the purple keys reminds me of the Game Cube in a good way

[IvanIvanovich]

Good to see some of international orders turning up and not being delayed forever or lost by the customs office.

[dirge]

oooo did you post mine? dvorak goodness

[Kurk]

oooo did you post mine? dvorak goodness

GMK + Dvorak? Did I miss something?

[dirge]

He was hanging onto my dvorak dyesub set to ship with the gmk to save on shipping

although a gmk dvorak alpha set... you should suggest it

[IvanIvanovich]

Yes dirge, yours was one of first orders sent actually. I don't think dvorak doubleshots will ever happen with GMK as there is not enough demand as far as I have seen. Only like 15 set were made with dyesubs.

[dirge]

Thanks I'll make sure to get some pics on an Ansi phantom and post them!

[kbdfr]

Got my white on purple modifiers set today, thanks a very lot.

The colour is even worse than expected, but the quality is absolutely unbeaten.
And there were 3 caps too many in my bag - hope they're not missing elsewhere

Nice avatar you have!


Did you make it yourself?

No, just advertising Tipro by using their logo
