^^^ Deutsche Post tracking is really bad. If you are in the USA, go to usps.com and enter just the tracking number. It does not work immediatley, but once the package arrived in the USA.

I did not yet find out how it works for other countries.

Please let me know if I can be of any assistance. The Space Cadet set is of prime interest to me, as you may have already surmised.

I can draw straight lines and circles.
:cool:

Here is the code to make the upside down T / A legend:

Code: Select all

$VAR W=25
$VAR V=W/2
$VAR H=380
$VAR J=H/2
$VAR T=J-V
$VAR G=32
$REM upside down T
$MOVE(  0, -G)
$LINE(  0, -T)
$MOVE(-60, -G)
$LINE( 60, -G)
$REM A
$MOVE( -65, T)
$LINE(   0, G)
$LINE(  65, T)
$MOVE(  42, 136)
$LINE( -42, 136)
$EOF .
:shock:

To make the S-legend, all I need to do is reading this:

I have no doubt you are completely capable, 7bit. I was merely proposing a division of labor to get us closer to production that much sooner. But I understand the reluctance you might feel towards entrusting any of the work to someone else. My offer still stands if you ever change your mind.

Space Cadet makes more sense, really. Because APL seriously needs tripleshot to come out right. APL is Red.

But Greek legends will be nice.

Hey 7bit, I'm gonna ask again just in case you didn't see it, but can we please get the HONEYB/MODEXTRA100/WHITE? Oddly, every other color is available. I won't be able to finish my board without those in white. Which would be really weird considering how empty my wallet is because of this GB. :lol:

Finally got my keycaps, thanks 7bit! Really happy with them so far – I've been typing on thick Ducky PBT keys for the last year and a half, but I think I like the feel of these more.

I realized I forgot to order some things – just small annoying oversights , like a black 1.25 "fun" key. If I want to order leftovers now that my main order is delivered, do I just PM the bot with what I want plus shipping?

Yes, thanks!

But, I'm making progress:

:cool:

Code: Select all

$MOVEB( 67,-66, -135,80)
$DRAWB(-70,-48,  270,40)
$MOVEB moves to point 67,-66 and sets the angle to -135 degrees and the scale factor to 80.
$DRAWB draws the Bezier curve to -70,-48 at angle 270 degrees and scale factor 40.
:o

Image
Angle and scale factor do nothing but defining P1 and P2. This way, I don't have to calculate so much, just measure and enter the figures. A little adjustment here, a little there and the legend is ready. Finally, scaling it down to the space cadet legend size, is plain sailing.

I wait for ISO-DE alphas in grey. Sadly they weren't available in R5.

Ergo Clears I hope ;)

But I don't use clears anymore, they strain my wrists. Go for lighter lubed blues :P

Just received my first shipment of caps and they are fantastic. On my invoice it appears that I still owe $3.00 for the HONEYB caps I ordered, but there are no instructions on how to pay included in the email. I am located in USA, can you please advise?

My little Perl script also makes progress:

Code: Select all

$VAR M=72.5

$REM            T
$CENTER(190,85.5)
$MOVE(  M,  0)
$LINE( -M,  0)
$MOVE(  M, -58)
$LINE(  M,  58)

$REM            F
$SCALE(0.7)
$CENTER(190,294)
$INCLUDE(F)
$EOF .
and F is defined here:

Code: Select all

$REM        F
$VAR  L= 73
$VAR  R= 27
$VAR  S= -8
$VAR  T=104
$MOVE( L,-T)
$LINE(-L,-T)
$LINE(-L, T)
$MOVE(-L, S)
$LINE( R, S)
$EOF .

As you can see, the legendable area of the key has been used 100% by both (0.38"x0.38"), but the Round 6 symbols are larger.
