Are there any other people interested in single-label numerals? ie: Like the HONEY/NUMERIC/WHITE but with R1 numerals instead of symbols, to match the single-label alphas? I'd totally order that but I might be alone...

It would include:

Code: Select all

 R1: ` ~ 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 - + =
and optionally some non-row1 symbols to match the single-label aesthetic:

Code: Select all

R2: [ ] 
R2(1.5u): \
R3: : " 
R4: < > ?
But just R1 0-9 would do me... any interest?

I like the marks for this, but I see your point; they would look snappy.

Yes I would totally be in. I especially agree with your second point about the quotes and braces. I had ergodox in mind with the other symbols and didn't think to ask about those until later.

Edit: Except I think the R2 keys should be shifted because the rest are all shifted symbols.

@farinasa_, I think you have interpreted my post wrong - I'm proposing using single numerals, not the shifted symbols.

As for the layout you posted above, you should be able to create it already with HONEY/NUMERIC, if that's what you're after :)

No I understood, and still agree they would be awesome. I was referring to R2 - [ ] \(1.5u) saying they should be R2 - { } |(1.5u) because all the other symbols are also their shifted versions: < > ? :

Of course R3 - " would still be required.

Edit: Here I'll add for perspective

I'm really torn.. I really want my modifier keys to not be blank (cuz I feel what's the point of doubleshots if it's showing only one color)

The budget version is just ERGOBASE $29 + ALPHA $32 + CURSOR/R3/BLACK $8 + two red R1s $6 = $75

What do you guys think, does the non-blank mod keys layout even look that good?
@7bit: Is there anyway to make it easier to get the 1.5u keys? maybe like an ERGOMOD kit? How bout the red transmit and clear/reset keys? :oops:

Anyway I'll sleep on it, the non-blank mod keys layout... maybe it'll stop looking good to me.... :|

Since to burn hasu's firmware without accessing the physical button we need a dedicated key (not in the FN layer)... I believe it would be great to have a FIRMWARE key :)

So I hereby nominee HONEY/FIRMWARE for inclusion (1U from R1 to R3)

They're probably not perfect but reasonably close I think.
On the toolbar you can pick a color palette with the Signature Plastics ABS colors.

White: WFK
Black: NN
Grey: GPA
Red: RAS
Blue: BFP

Not sure how well matched they are, though, and I think NN is missing from the palette.

Oh my goodness. I just received the Round 4 SPH keys in my hand, in real person (thanks, MJ45!) and they are beautiful! So beautiful that I decided to add my orders! I hope the price will go down further!

HONEY/NUMROW now available in all 4 colors.

I've moved some keys from the NUMERIC kits to NUMROW, because they fit there better.

You mentioned a few days ago 7bit that you might split the cursor packs into separate arrows and text kits. Have you decided whether you're going to do the split?

I'm having the same problem, except I also am getting the Dvorak, which is another $30....

Since the Ergodox will be new for me, I decided to get the blank modifiers (black). That way I won't be afraid to experiment around with the layout, and if I really want labels later, I'll get them during some other GB (lots of colors match with black/white).

Thanks, not sure how I missed that! They're very different to what I was using, and probably much more accurate. I've just taken some colours from the SP's own photos of their colour samples and they're very close to the colours the layout editor provides.

To save people mousing over every single colour to find the one they want, here are the SP colour codes in HTML so you can just type them in;

White (WFK): #e5e4df
Grey (GPA): #5d6060
Red (RAS): #950013
Blue (BFP): #0073a2
Black (NN): #1e1f1d

The black is my best guess by taking an average from the SP sample photo, seems a lot closer than the black I was using.

Is it possible to change the grey keys in HONEY/ERGO to black ones?? Also, is it possible to have a row 2 up cursor and row 3 left, right and down cursors (in black)??

7bit, I've just done a massive overhaul on my order (don't worry ended up spending more) and find myself in need of a HONEY/TILDEBPRIME/RED. What do you say? :D

Also, any chance of red caps lock being added to HONEY/FUNCTION/RED?

I know I know, I'm pushing my luck :P

EDIT: Ignore the caps lock request, I'm just going to swap to HONEY/TKL/BASE/RED as it's the same price as all the little bits I have. Would still like the HONEY/TILDEBPRIME/RED though! :D

You can add any blank key caps you want.
