The two profiles are vastly different, Q series is similar to DSA (low profile) and K series is like SA(but unsculpted)

Jebbra - there's no purchase limit.

Devlin's Q is basically a thicker version of Signature Plastic's DSA, whereas K is essentially a thicker SA (equivalent to uniform row three) - Q is uniform low profile and quite thick, K is uniform high profile and really thick.

I have some K series caps from the sampler pack, and I have some of Signature Plastics SA relegendable keys and they're pretty much the same height. I can't tell the height difference from using them on my keyboard, but if you measured them accurately enough I suspect they'd be off by a fraction of a millimetre.

May I know why so much blank? I still dream about Devlin with Colemak layout and it still doable by replacing 2 of the blanks with non-homing F J :mrgreen:

Wow, RadAway looks very cool! Too bad its not for 60% but this set alone could be the reason to get Plank keyboard.

I could use the 5 blanks instead of the 5 keys which don't match my local QWERTY layout:
comma, dot, slash, semicolon and quote.

But I totally support adding non-homing F and J.

I could definitely use the 5 blanks too - in fact I'll be needing 6 for my space "bar", but then I'm not putting these on a Planck so my needs probably won't match anyone else's needs.

If you're keen on getting the non-homing F and J you could request them once you place your order as instructed on the group buy page "If you would like keycaps for a different layout with also uses 1u and 2u keycaps please use the contact form"... of course, it would be an additional cost. I'm just more accepting of the fact that I'll have to fork out extra to realise my dream.

I already emailed them regarding the 'request' for different layout but not yet got a reply. Just need non-homing F J and Homing T N though.

Ohhh I didn't even consider contacting them now for additional keys - I just assumed I'd have to refer to my order number.

Edit: I should have contacted before placing my order as I was working on the assumption that I'd be able to purchase other standard keys so long as they were 1U, such as number row and F row. Thankfully Joe at MechSupply was very understanding of my mistake and was happy to give a full refund. I'll just wait and hope that Atomic layout and maybe even full ortholinear/matrix layouts gain enough popularity that I don't have to resort to buying a total of 120 relegenable caps... :?
