R1 in the upgrade kit is just an error and is fixed. Thanks for pointing this out ;)
I know there already many kits. But it does not mean you need to get them all. Basically getting just one base kit should be enough to make you happy. Everything else is just an option.
Actually, I'd prefer an upgrade kit with the new novelties for R4, but I know it's not possible. The thing is I've tried R5 and I don't like its angle at all. But maybe it's just me.
Having never used R5, I'm curious if anyone knows if it creates a sharp edge for those that use their thumb for the bottom row?
This is exactly my problem, I have a set of R5 mods and they feel like they're just the opposite of what a bottom row should be: SA has a flat R3 on the bottom row; a lot of membrane boards have a rounded profile for the bottom row; even a lot of people flip their spacebars on OEM and Cherry profile sets because they find the downwards angle on the bottom row more comfortable. R5 is the opposite of all that.
I have BSP set with row 5 keys and they are noticable if you switch from row4 bottom row but not sharp. If you got low agnle keyboard you should probably stick with round 1 carbon. Imo 8-9% angle keyboards should be the golden standard.
R5 may work very well for those keyboards, but for most others with 3-6° it may not be the best option.
I understand the appeal of having a full sculpted set, and I'm not saying that you should change it back to R4, but I think an optional R4 bottom row is a more important option/kit than half of the new kits, at least for me.
- Added new extension "Bone Icon Extension kit". Afaik all the icons do already exist and i am using my source of information which i cant publish.
If you are using the same icons from Originative Red Honey, the PgUp and PgDn icons only have two horizontal bars crossing the arrow, not three.
Also the Delete key from the Originative set and your mockup has a narrow 'X' character inside, instead of a proper ×, and in person it looks very bad.
