Hello all! After the run of GMK Mondrian, I want to raise the bar a bit and have some nice GMK legends on our ortholinear keyboard.
A set of GMK keycaps specifically made for ortholinear keyboards. I want to make an alternative route of using GMK on ortholinear board, previously we always have to buy the base kit with extra ergodox while we only use like 1/5 of the total keys we buy, or if we are lucky we can live with wrong-legend-1u in right row from a base kit of some keyset.

This can cover (in vanilla or alternate vanilla layout):

  1. Planck and all of its clone/variant.
  2. Preonic
  3. XD75
  4. Atreus/Atreus62
  5. Diverge TM 2
  6. Terminus Mini 2
  7. Diverge 3
  8. And any keyboards with 1u grid-spacing up to 15x5
    Little FAQ:
    – Why GMK? Because it feels very nice to type on!
    – Why ortho only? Because I feel bad for paying extras $$$ for keys we don’t use.
    – Why only vanilla layout? Based on my understanding of several drop of planck/ortho only keyset (XDA Canvas & PBT Acute) the vanilla has a much more boarder – audience and we all most likely have unique key placement on another layers.
    – How much is it? Dunno yet.
    – Where/when the GB will hapeen? Dunno yet.
    – Why these color? I want to appeal a broader audience because we need 150 MOQ on GMK, that’s why I try to be basic so this can fit in any color of your case.
    – Why text only? Because I aesthetically it fits better on 1u, and most of the tooling for them is already available.

    And of course, any suggestion/feedback is very needed :)
    PS I actually want to run this color called Fuku, but because GMK needs 250 of MOQ for custom colors, I don’t think we can made it.
