prices are neat :thumb:
but one question, of course that's not up to you but maybe you have an idea why there's an MOQ for the blanks? i mean, they're literally the base for all the kits since it's dyesub and are less production steps, so from my perspective there shouldn't be an MOQ^^

Forgive me for the question I'm going to ask, I'm new to this field. If I order X kits but only Y reach the MOQ, what happens? My order is abandoned ? I receive Y kits ? And if in missing kits there is one indispensable for me ?

You should ask the vendor you buy from that question, but usually they will ask you if you want to stick with your order or cancel it I think.

Is it possible for the kits to sell out before the end of the group buy? what i mean is, is better to buy what i want as soon as it up for sale or i can take my time (up until the 30 of september that is)

thank you

You can take your time, kits won't sell out. The only limit on buying is the group buy period.

Can confirm that there will be no conflict with north facing switches.

The walls of the keycaps will not hit the switch ;)

Not sure about KAT, but in other profiles, PBT has always been rougher.
PBT can be smooth or even shiny. KAT is quite smooth and matte, with a slight chalky texture.
Thats great to hear. I wasn't aware of that, so texture of keycaps is part of the profile?

Yes it is. The mold determines which kind of texture you get. For instance KAM profile is very smooth and shiny. DSA is quite grainy... XDA is in-between, while XDAS and KAT are matte smooth.

I still have yet to find the reason for this but does anyone know why KAT and KAM have Different textures and finishes even though KAM is just Uniform Row-3 KAT.

Do they use different factories?

So are any of the rows the same sculpt, or are they all unique? Like for sculpted SA, R2 and R4 are essentially the same sculpt except flipped. Is that the case with any rows for KAT?

Have you thought about turning the deskmat graphics into something that could be used as a desktop wallpaper?

Ideally, it would be a design with the same cues as the mats you already have, but is still something unique enough to stand alone on someone's monitor.

Also, someone may have already mentioned this, but is there the possibility of getting some custom cables to fit the design too?

I'm definitely in on this set and mousemats though! Looks incredible!

I think two of the rows (r3 & r5) are the same flipped over:

Now looking at it closely, it's not the case, the side wall profile is different.

Thought the same at first, but look closely, the front wall is more sharply curved than the back wall. So while the key top is symmetric, the side walls are not.

Deskpads will be $14/deskpad on my site plus shipping.

But we won’t have these up until we receive samples from the manu.

Probably a silly question:
Does the M6-C come with keycaps? Cable? It looks like other versions do from Rama, but most aren’t “e” coated.

Can this be added on to our order after or do we have to pay for the shipping again or should we just wait to order everything together??
