What is the expected production lead time on a GMK keyset these days? Is there a list of sets currently in production queue, by chance?

lfchawkeyeIts right at ~9 months. So sets ordered today should be out by September! I'll be doing a huge update on our lead times right after the holidays - we not only have our new molding machines up and running, but we also have a brand new sorting machine that will exponentially help as well.

GMK_AndySo all 143 sets in queue will be done in the next 9 months? (Barring color matching issues)

TyPo.mkYup! I will have actual numbers in a post after the holidays but we are producing ~2x the number of caps per month, as compared to last year at this time (~4-5 million caps compared to ~2.5 million) along with just adding a new sorting machine that will greatly improve the accuracy and speed at which sets can be sorted (this was a bottleneck). As I mentioned, I will provide real data here in a large post I'll share across communities after the holidays when the team has time to pull the real numbers for me.

*Help* Screw in stabilizers not fitting in Dropshift V2 keyboard
I'm trying to build a mechanical keyboard with screw in stabilizers, I've build some mechanical keyboards with click-in stabilizers, never with screw in. Somehow one of the pins of the metal top-part collides with the screw in stabilizer of the numpad "enter key". I already tried grinding of a bit of the pin that collides with the stabilizer, but unfortunately I can't make it fit/close properly. You can see that the pin of the toppart leaves a mark on the bottompart of the stabilizer, see picture 2. What am I missing? Using Durock V2 in a Dropshift fullsize V2. See pictures below, thanks in advance!

Don't drop crazy cash on custom wood builds! Instead go buy polymer clay and paint. Then you can spend a ridiculous amount of time trying to make it look like you can afford to drop crazy cash on...

Want to build a Clicky Mech Keyboard. Where to begin?
Hello all. Am brand new to the idea of building my own keyboard. Have not a clue where to begin this process. I am a Sim Game enthusiast. American Truck Sim, DCS Flight Sim and goes from there. Need some real help on where to start for making my own Full Size, Clickey Mechanical KB. I want each key to have its own backlighting. Are there keys that are better than others for this? Is there a great spot on site for a person who has never even taken a keyboard apart? Let alone fixed or built one? I would like it to fit my theme of Red and Black. Yet maybe have the option of changing things up a bit. Any help at all would be greatly appreciated. Thank you all kindly, Durazell

Does the ALT v2 PCBA support USB-C e-marked cables?
Currently my ALT v1 does not work with e-marked USB-C cables. I was wondering if the v2 PCBA does support these types of cables (thunderbolt 4 cable for example)?
