PotatoTMThank you PotatoTM for posting the video, very insightful.
And thank you matt3o for making it.. I was already convinced so the video helps a little to get the idea of how the keys will be when finished.. but does not make the wait easier :P
I know I will not be the only one to ask about the keyboard you use to try the keycaps, can you tell us about the switches you used (they look black but sound Clicky)
matt3oNow I'm really excited about the keyset.
The top surface of the MT3 looks so much bigger than the SA caps which is the only thing I can nitpick about SA profile when typing fast you cannot help but hit the edges sometimes disorientating, and, slowing your pace down..
This MT3 sneak peek almost beats porn man, the way they cradle the finger tips....
PotatoTMMatt3o, In the video, I see there some colour codes on the back of the chips. Are codes as follows?
beige - RAL 9002 but I hear you saying that you want it to be a bit lighter
red - RAL 2001
triumph - RAL 6027
also, is the blue /dev/tty key in the base kit meant to be a different colour to the triumph keys?
I'm very impressed so far. I ask these questions because I'm trying to decide whether I want beige mods and/or triumph mods.
PotatoTMLove Matt3o's quote;
"Your fingers will make love with these key-caps" Basically says it all here.
My fingers are now already anxious to start making Love with these Caps as well, so MassDrop time to deliver these babies to us as soon as possible ; )
chalksYea, I cannot either. Almost wanted both sets altogether....
Really wanted Triumph but afraid it really turns out like GMK Triumph's greenish bluish rendition stopped me. I really liked the blue in the mock-ups but if it's greenish after fine tuning the palette, uhuh.
chalksRAL 6027 is interesting for the Triumph 'blue' - my swatch book calls that code 'light green' (at least, in the English translation!) I can see how it might be right comparing it to the renders and video, although my colour vision isn't particularly good...
GecktBe thankful his Key-cap Group Buys are so few here on MassDrop, so when he produces something of merit such as these babies, best to just open that wallet of yours and pay it forward.
Great things don't come along here too often and when they do, just be glad to be in it otherwise you will regret the day you were born, if you decide to miss this group buy set.
