EnjoyPBT Slate (formerly GMK Slate, which was formerly
GMK Concrete)
Update: 6/25/2018: We ain’t dead. Working on getting
to run through EnjoyPBT with help from KBDFans.
This is
Slate.
The name Slate is a reference to both
the color of the set and the fact that you can mix and match
this set with others for unique looks. Using the shades
between 9009/Muted/OG Cherry sets and the Dolch family, this
GMK keyset provides a rock solid base on which to
customize.
Also offered alongside EnjoyPBT Slate,
Cartel is offering PB modifiers.
PB draws its
inspiration from the mid-90’s Packard Bell logo:
The three colors, GMK V1 and TU2 and Pantone 2726C,
will be featured as an add-on to the main set, similar to
the CMY and RGB packs.
Color Codes:
- Base: 2B
- Mods: Pantone P 173-15 C

Legends: CR

Old GMK Renders:
My idea with this is to create a relatively cheap,
universal set in stock GMK colors. My thought behind the
somewhat boring black-on-grey color scheme is that the set
could be easily mixed/matched with alphas or modifers from
other sets, or look good on its own. I drew some inspiration
from OEM boards that have similar colors, like some of the
Leopolds and Varmilos.
With RGBYK and CMYPK, I think a
re-run would be useful even though they’re available in
simpler kits from retailers currently. The Esc pack would
compliment them nicely, as well as go with other keysets
with their simple colors.
Future plans:
Get some renders done
-
Finalize compatibility
[/s] Approach GMK for their renders + interest
-
To add:*
Windowed caps
RGBWMYP enter/spacebars?
-
Think up some cool combos of keysets to render
Other stuff probably
-
Pricing:*
The GB will be run through my company’s site, cartel.ltd. Cartel is a new mechanical keyboard company I’m a co-founder of (alongside two others), and we’re striving to bring some exciting and new products and ideas to the community.
EU proxy is mykeyboard.eu, AS proxy is monokei.us. -
Update: 6/29/17 late at night*
Decided to switch to a two-tone scheme rather than one. Looks a lot cooler IMO.
Trying to decide between CV and N6 for the yellow tone, CV is classic and has been done but N6 looks slightly better to me.
Got some prelim renders done with both text and icon mods.
Decided to go with Pantone 1235C for the yellow. In between N6 and CV, looks fantastic IMO. -
Update: 9/14/17*
After a long summer and some prelim communication with GMK, I’ve finalized the sets I’d like to run. Today I’ve emailed them asking for pricing and renders of the final kits.
Updated to V2 of final kits -
update: 10/24/17*
99% ready for GB. Pricing and final renders of 3/4 kits are on hand. Waiting for an update to the TU2 spacebar pack, adding 2, 2.25, and 2.75 convex spacebars.
Other notes:
Removed Win7 logo caps, now only Code caps will be offered.
Removed 1.25u menu icon key, now only the Menu text key will be offered.
Added R3 1.25u Fn key for smaller layouts. -
Update: 10/26*
Added pricing, kits are final. -
Update: 6/25/18*
I decided to finally talk to KBDFans about running this with EnjoyPBT after their success with 9009. Reworking kits slightly and we’ll see how it goes. No more CMYK kit.
