The ortho kit could need a R2 1u novelty.. as well as a R4 2u novelty (Smaug? Feel free to scrap the blank

i guess the usage of some icons instead of text is because of space?

May i ask: is it on purpose that the ortho kit has 4 enter keys (I know, different Rowan while the ISO enter in the base kit does not have a alternative color?

Wow, that's quick. Are you allowed to name the manufacturer yet? I already have an idea of who it probably is.

No problem, it’s not needed that badly anyway. Do you consider the 2u novelty?

Is there a ergodox render to come?

Very much looking forward to seeing the samples!

matt3o · 30 Oct 2017, 15:34

denisgsv · 21 Nov 2017, 01:03

Dunno it's quite particular i guess not wanted by many i suppose ) I would be the first to buy such set that's why i am both happy and curious.

Are you really considering making a billingual between elven and cyrillic ?

that would be really too much

Vertigo · 21 Nov 2017, 19:21

Is there such thing as "too much" in mech world?

Phenix · 21 Nov 2017, 19:57

Matt3o,
how about doing a quadruple-legend set with Elven, Cyrillic, Japanese and Startrek?

on a edges.
and Korean in the center

i think any monolegend is better

for me as a touch-typist legend is not mandatory, so i prefer to get something fancy-looking monolegend as a labels.

i'm waiting for this set, but not sure about profile, bcs in one message matt3o says that it will be high profile but not /dev/tty0 like... i'm curious

Now THAT's something to behold! Fine, let's one-up it by adding Georgian on front-center (and in an italic font, to irritate a certain youtuber!).

Very nice! I'm torn between this set and DSA Drifter, but I think I'll have to save my money for the Elvish set.

Phenix · 11 Jan 2018, 11:31

Get the elvish.
Elvish is novelty.

FSund · 23 Feb 2018, 08:38

Any updates?

All the keycaps sets I ordered/group buys I joined last year has now arrived, so I need something new to fill my queue!
