What caps do we need for the Hyper Micro?

Surely 1 and 1.5 units only.

Guess those sweet 4u space bars are just too fat for a truly Hyperbolic Micro…

I must be missing something... why some alpha (and mods) are all on row3 and others are spread between rows?

The main style is black on white, white on grey with additional black modifiers, numpad and so on, plus some white on red keys.

Then, there was that mockhup with red alnum and black modifiers and I thought it might be nice to have this as well.

Because I don't really want 2 different styles, it is just a reduced kit with all row 3 legends and punct keys with on;t 2 legends per key, not 3. This keeps the number of keys down and is attractive to people who
- love all row 3
- love red with black modifiers around them
- love to swap key caps accross rows, to try things out, but don't want to use an IBM keyboard (too noisy)

Like this?

Thinking of doing that with my Poker. Do you think it would be a good idea? I've no experience with SA SPH caps. I just really like the look of them.

It came up as one of two mocks I made with your colour chooser. Honeywell is a four colour set, so…

Legend color on WFK seems more dark grey than pure black (is it just me?). I like WBO on all other legends

I would do it but Paypal would surely lock my account. Not to mention they would pay refunds directly out of my personal checking account.

No, no!

Acanthophis is doing it for quite a while now and nothing has been locked.

The trick is to acceot only payments for goods and mark them as shipped shortly after the payment.

Also, I don't want a sinlge person to collect all the amount. Just $5,000-$10,000 would be nice, until we found another one.

It's all just guesswork until I get the colour wheel. The white caps seem to have black legends to my eye, but I'll make sure for you!

That's what I thought so I added two more deep dished keys from the Round4 leftover :D (must be the two last, I will pay this bill in the end of the week)
BEPO kit should now 100% replace an ALPHA kit, so S, W and Z are included.
Nice ! Now I have to order and wait if the moq is reached (I can't afford to order 8 bépo sets)

As I noticed for the Round4 SPH pictures, the bépo set you show is messed up : altgr layer on bpoauieêàyxk is confused with first layer on ,^'+-/*=%
IMHO the simpler is to remove all altgr legends :twisted:

Thanks!
When I collected for R4, I stayed under the $20,000 cutoff for paypal collection, so nothing was reported to the IRS. If I recall correctly, one needs to have taken in more the $20k and have over 200 transactions for PP to inform the feds/taxman.

Also, will the red alphanum kit have dual legends on the number row, or just the numbers like in the mockup?

I've gone ahead and decided to get my design, with the red punctuation kit as well.

Is it possible to get scoops for the red 'F' and 'J' ?

Deep dish F and J added, but I will not add these for other layouts!

That kit's getting pretty irresistible. Would blank black and red POS keys (2x1 and 2x2) that I can use as mods alongside them be too much to ask for? Grey and white POS is welcome, but black and red are Honeywell's hottest colours!

Any chance LRET (Big Ass Enter) will be available? I know the chances have to be close to zero, but thought I would ask anyway.

As far as I know, it does not exist in the size we would need. Also, even if it exists, it might not fit becuase therte are 2 different variants, one with vertical stabiliser setup and one with horizontal.
:o

POS kits and ERGO kit: sooooon!!!!

Yes! POS perfection is a kit of the following blanks:
  • 1 2x2
  • 4 2x1
  • 8 1x1
For all 4 colours! That's 52 caps. If you want less, reduce the single blanks. The big ones are very useful.

Hmm… and a 4x1 space bar. (But fortunately I have one of those from Round 4.)
