Eagerly awaiting that addition, but I plan on getting in line early.

Great looking set. 

What happened to the 60% kit?  Seems a waste to spend $43 for the Tsangan just to get a 1.75 right shift key for the Pure layout.

This is such a sexy and well thought out set.  It saddens me that it seems to have stalled halfway there.  I hope it hits the MOQ.  Hopefully someone like Techkeys steps up and buys a handful of sets to help it hit MOQ.

Still 23 days left, we'll be fine. It's only been 4 days and already 16 orders have been made, 9 remaining.

Probably not.  The only way that would happen is if the Tsangan hits MOQ and they have spares.  No biggie though, the rest of the set still looks great.   :thumb:

There are way too many keys in the Tsangan kit. AFAIK, no layout requires two 1.75x shifts, there are already two 1.25x symbol keys in the mods kit and very few people have HHKB layout cherry compatible boards, so the HHKB keys should be in a separate kit with lower MOQ.

For a Tsangan we only need two 1.5x Alt, two 1.5x Ctrl, one 1.75x shift, one 7x spacebar, two 1x symbol keys and one 1.5x Caps. That's it.

The 1.25x Caps and 1.75x Ctrl should be in the mods kit.

The HHKB specific keys should be in a separate kit (Delete, 1xAlts and Fn).
Buying more keycaps,
it really hacks my wallet,
but I must have them.

1)  This is a great idea thematically.  I love the Tea keys. :thumb:

2)  In the future please note that an HHKB has an R1 1-unit \| key.

I agree that the Tsangan is a bit pricey, but understand why it is because it's a combination of kits for someone not after an HHKB layout. However, for someone like me who IS wanting an HHKB layout, I like that I only have to buy one kit -- which I just did.

Order placed!

I ordered a few base sets and mod sets last night, glad to see we've finally tipped.

Speaking of the Tsangan sets, are the prices even correct? It also says $14 after 50 but then the price goes up to $22 at 75  ::)

Already posted in that thread. I'll post again if we don't meet MOQ in the next few days. I think people would even be interested in the modifiers alone because they allow the user to use any DCS alphas with their SmallFry keyboard.

Do love the color scheme, but it seems will not tip in numpad and tsangan.
So I can only place it on my Poker as the rendering image?
That's the only thing preventing me from jumping in.

Well, if no-one orders the pad and tsangan out of fear it won't tip, well, it won't.. ;) If you order it and it actually won't tip you will not be charged. That said, I'm surprised the pad numbers are so low, this set looks great on a full-size board !

So, about ordering these and the smallfry kit hitting MOQ. If I throw in an order right now for the base kit and the smallfry kit, and the smallfry mods do not hit, am I forced to buy the base set (And I would be stuck without mods)

Should I just put in an order for the mods and if the meet MOQ before it ends, then grab the alphas?

Not sure how this all works as far as buying things and only some meet MOQ, what happens.

Okay, I very well might order a normal set of mods and the alphas if the smallfry doesn't tip. This is the first SP keycap set I really like out of all of them I have seen so far. I just don't know what I would put it on if I couldn't put it on my JD40 since all my other keyboards have permanent keycap sets on them.

Well, I put my order in for smallfry, 6 sets left to tip MOQ...

Come on people, I guarantee there have been more than 50 smallfry keyboards sold, is everyone going to use blank dsa keycaps? :/

Is there any way SP would agree to lower the MOQ even more for an increased price if everyone was cool with that? Or is this the absolute minimum they will even consider?

Thanks for the order. If we don't meet MOQ, I'm sure those who are still interested will have the opportunity to buy Smallfry mods if the kit doesn't meet moq.

New to the whole keycap scene, but really keen on getting these. To confirm, if I wanted a full set, I would get the base + modifiers + numpad yeah? (For my ducky shine - all good if not all keys fit since I should be changing KB sometime :3 )
