Round 5 and Round 6 kits for sale!

[facetsesame]

haha, thanks 7bit!

[7bit]

Erhem!

[facetsesame]

Do I have to order more HONEY/FUNCTION/R1 ? I could run to another one if I have to...

[Muirium]

PLAY appears at last, nice one.

Going through the text dump you took earlier, I find a tantalising mention of:

Code: Select all

    HONEY/MODEXTRA125     |R3U125 |WFK (White)|GPA (Gray) |ENTER

But the kit's picture looks like this:

Where is 1.25 unit ENTER! Yes, there's a difference between ENTER and RETURN. I can get one but not the other…

[7bit]

Don't understand your problem. I can see both: RETURN and ENTER.

[Muirium]

<Refreshes page.> Ah, yes, I see you're right. Carry on!

[Muirium]

All right, what about a black FUN (or FN) key? I can't find a single unit in any of the kits.

It would fit just perfectly in HONEY/FUNMOD/BLACK. Then I can have black keys for every one of these blues:

A black R1 ESC would be highly nifty as well…

You're recreating this IBM look?

I support this! Wish I'd been around for the R4 SPH proper.

[facetsesame]

Hang on a minute, somehow my sincere efforts didn't help with the undecided function legends...

Exactly! I'm up to a bunch of stuff with the red scheme, too. But grey and black sphericals are pure beamspring and I'm going straight for it.

Keep an eye out for people selling their caps. I missed Round 4 too, but snatched an opportunity to buy a set. Now I'm hopelessly addicted to SA. Um, in a good way!

[Belfong]

Yeah I bought mine off a member here but I'm wondering if these keys shine or not. Are you using the R4 daily, Murium?

[Muirium]

They're ABS, so they will shine. I've put a hundred hours or so on them and nothing obvious so far, but eventually shine is inevitable unless you keep your caps in a bag. PBT is the tougher option, but no doubleshots there (well…) so no white on dark Honeywell legends.

I call it HONEY/FUNCTION2 but you can also order it as HONEY/FACETSESAME:

Any chance for this set all on row 3?

Ah damn it! I too want this IBM look! I know it's a lot of handwork matching all these keys but if you don't mind sharing the kit that would make up that black modifier, I'd be grateful, Murium.

[Elrick]

I think I need to sell my car off for these Key-sets.

Anyway I'll see before long how much exactly I owe on these babies. Mind you this has to be the last key-set for me for this year, because my key-cap buying days are now over.

[7bit]

You set your priorities wrong!

Here is what you should do:
- Give up your flat and rent a warehouse.
- Sell your car, the keyboard stuff is delivered directly into your warehouse anyway.
- Quit GH and don't buy their childish fluff anymore! Penumbra? LOL!

[Belfong]

Oh come on 7bit! I like Gh!
And yes, I went with Penumbra too!

[7bit]

Traitor!

[Muirium]

I'm not buying in any other GBs (only enough $BANK for this one). So gimme a cookie in the form of that single unit black FUN key I was on about at the top of the page, bitte sehr!

[matt3o]

I was reviewing my order and I just wanted to congratulate with 7bit, the HONEY/TENKLESS kit is almost perfect. It just misses a couple of keys that are available anyway on other kits. Really a great job, it will be a mess to sort... well anyway, sorting is 2 years from now, so no worries >:)

edit: oh HONEY/RETURN175 should be in HONEY/MODIFIEREXTRA

[7bit]

@Muirium: single unit black FUN in the works ... HONEY/FUNMOD/BLACK


Thanks!

Sorting will be super easy this time!

Only 4 colors and easy to grab key caps that don't flip away from time to time and land in the wrong box.

[matt3o]

reiterating: put HONEY/RETURN175 into HONEY/MODIFIEREXTRA

[Muirium]

@Muirium: single unit black FUN in the works ...

Hooray! A single unit R1 black ESC would make a great partner for it in the BEAMSPRING kit! (Also known as HONEY/FUNMOD/BLACK.)

[matt3o]

what are you trying to do Muirium? (I mean do you have a mockup of the final design?)

[7bit]

ESCAPE (row 1) and FUN (row 3) added.

[Belfong]

I don't understand the difference between TKL and TENKEYLESS (aside from obvious more keys)

[Belfong]

Traitor!

There.. There.. You are still my favourites!

[Muirium]

Re the multiple TKLs: you nailed it Belfong. If you don't know what they are for, you don't need them.

Excellent work 7bit! That kit is right at the heart of my order now.

Matt, I'm trying to be quite cunning. You're right about HONEY/TENKLESS being the foundation. My idea is to have my current 60% covered, while preparing the way for a custom TKL; which may have a smaller space bar. And making sure I can handle any standard 1.25 unit TKL I pick up too, with Apple labelled mods.

Oh, in red, black and standard white/grey versions! While trying not to go any more nuts than that. It sounds a lot, but I'm trying to play Tetris with the components so it's optimal.

I'll post my full list with descriptions once I'm done.

[facetsesame]

I call it HONEY/FUNCTION2 but you can also order it as HONEY/FACETSESAME:

Any chance for this set all on row 3?

Hm, how many would you order, jefferai?
Belfong, Muirium, what do you think?

[Muirium]

Row 3? Nope. But I'm not a sure bet for the current version either. Depends what I can squeeze into my budget.
