I like it! I wish this movie had been in theaters near me. I have to wait until it comes out on VOD.

Nice work on this.

Thank you ! If you're in the US, the nationwide release is on April 13th.

Rip all Europeans though.

High contrast in-your-face colors might be the mood of the moment - look at all the purple sets in the queue. I actually prefer this set and look forward to the GB. One thing of note is the lack of regular shift key in the modifier kit, or is that just a rendering oversight? Not complaining, for selfish reason I'd rather have 1.75u shift as the default size so that jumped out at me.

Ah you're right. good eye! I will make the change. I can keep both 1.75 and 2.25u shift, but usually the 1.75u is only for the non-standard kit

Any chance of adding a spacekey/bars kit, like the ones in SA Pulse or Troubled Minds? Would help with split space layouts.

Post by: Madēo on Wed, 18 April 2018, 19:08:03
Thanks for the great feedback guys  :thumb:

Given the current interest count, I'm most probably going to run this set myself as a small limited group buy (fixed quantity).
In order to keep prices down, I suggest merging kits together just like I did with Grand Budapest, meaning selling 3 kits max:

I understand there is also demand for ISO, ergo, ortho kits but these wouldn't meet MoQ unfortunately.
By having just 3 kits which cover already a wide range of layouts, I can be sure to meet MoQ and keep costs down.
The pricing for the 3 kits above will be defined in the coming weeks. Stay tuned~

Let me know if you guys have any suggestions, or questions :)

Note: Those of you who insist on an iso kit, please register your vote on https://www.massdrop.com/vote/SA-Kobayashi (https://www.massdrop.com/vote/SA-Kobayashi), I have added an ISO option.

Any chance you can label the cap sizes, I know it's extra work, I'm sorry! Thinking about also getting the 40s kit for the Pearl when it comes up again and want to make sure I won't be missing anything.

Of course, we will ship internationally. What I meant was there will be both EU proxy and a USA proxy, so it should reduce shipping costs overall.
This will all be confirmed soon, along with the first price estimates. Stay tuned  :thumb:

Correct me if I’m wrong, but many 60%, TKL, WKL, and fullsize use 2.75u right shift as default? Personally, saves me from desoldering and reconfiguring my Kira60 and Duck Orion, and could double as split space bar on some other builds.

Yeah I'm not sure how a 2.75 shift key was completely missed.

It's used on all non-split right shifts.

Shouldn't be in the 40s kit, instead in the modifiers.

Can you also add a 1.5 delete for R2 on non-standard kit to support HHKB styled customs? It's currently in R1, but if I'm not mistaken, HHKB needs one in R2 and I'm sure there are many HHKB customs users looking forward to this set. Let me know if I'm missing something. Thanks!

I think you meant to say "198" available in the US since I'm getting one for myself and one for my daughter.  This is one of the best designs I've seen.  I love how the alphas remind me of the Japanese flag (red on white), how the brown is understated and muted, and the use of yellow throughout.  Very excited by the yellow space bars too.  In a world full of high contrast, neon colors, this set stands out and it the one I'm most excited for.  Mito's Godspeed is probably the only other set that I feel as strongly about.

It's bone white - color code: WCK. But a white blank would match the the Pro-dog novelty nicely

Thank you. Will check this out. With the BananaSplit I think I can also try 2.25, 1.75, 2.25 in the middle.

- Stepped capslock appears to be missing.
- CONTROL can be written out on 1.5u and larger keys
- BACKSPACE instead of DELETE for the 1.5u key seems more appropriate
- In numpad, color of extra 5 and 1u + key should be the other way around. Also R2 minus and R3 plus instead of R2 plus, as splitting the 2u + into + and - is the norm
- What's the extra modifier color 1u Del key in the TKL kit for?
- I suggest using the bigger function row legends SP has available.
- The Carbon-style color mix of the TKL mods seems a bit odd when not using an accent color

- In numpad, color of extra 5 and 1u + key should be the other way around. Also R2 minus and R3 plus instead of R2 plus, as splitting the 2u + into + and - is the norm
- What's the extra modifier color 1u Del key in the TKL kit for?
- I suggest using the bigger function row legends SP has available.
- The Carbon-style color mix of the TKL mods seems a bit odd when not using an accent color

Thank you so much Oblotzky!
I will be making these changes, I agree on the tkl mod color mix suggestion-- it'll work better by following your example.
What is this new function row legend you mention?

- CONTROL can be written out on 1.5u and larger keys
- BACKSPACE instead of DELETE for the 1.5u key seems more appropriate

SP has two sets of function row legends available. One smaller one that has been used most times, and another one that was not used much, except for SA Calm Depths and 7bit's Round orders. That was the case until I started lobbying for the bigger ones recently, Strong Spirit, Carbon, Oblivion and Pulse R3 have opted for the bigger ones.

The 1.5u Controls remain not written out, just checking if on purpose.

Regarding the TKL colors, this is of course up to you as the designer, and the following is solely my personal opinion: TKL's should look like this

I tried the 1.5u but as seen on the image, it looks a bit jammed in and awkward. I prefer sticking with the CTRL abbreviation.
Regarding the Modifier colors, since the brown is quite dark, it would look too heavy if I followed the example. I prefer the way Calm Depths has it.

Perhaps 1800 support? R1 Del, End, Page Down, R2 Numpad-, R3 1u Numpad+. All very nice things to have for various 1800 based layouts and 96key, which are reasonably popular nowadays.
