[IC] DSA Take Out | MAJOR UPDATES

[Ahngel]

ne Colevrak avail?

[sithlord]

Are plastic bags included?

Actually thinking about doing paper bags with the smiley on it, with the plastic bag ban being in place in some areas.

Paper bag actually sounds really cool. OR maybe even a takeout box?

Please tell me if i'm missing anything in the ANSI or ergo kits! I use 40's primarily so wasn't sure about them

I see three keys that would be nice to have: a 1u Fn, a second 2.25u Shift for 66-key layouts, and a 2u spacebar for Alice and various other boards. The second 1.25u Fn key you could either remove or change to 1.5u. It would be nice to see 4-key ISO coverage as well, but I'm not sure if that's one of your goals for this set.

What's 4-key ISO? I know I've got uk-iso in the numpad kit but unsure about that one.
Everything else you said has been fixed though ( just nuked the second 1.25u fn )

Oh I missed that. Yeah, having ISO-UK in the numpad kit is fine. 4-key ISO is neutral ISO compat that aims to physically cover ISO layouts without necessarily caring about legend correctness. As such it is convenient for inclusion into base kits due to the low number of extra keys needed (just 4).

That means supporting the English (USA) national layout over ISO in the base kit (usually shortened to "US ISO"). To this effect, you may add to the base kit the following keys: 1.25U Shift key, vertical ("ISO") Enter key, 1U \| and either a second \| key ("PC style") or a <> key ("terminal style"). The "UK ISO" support can then be kept apart, with three fewer keys.

Yeah, but in this case I think sticking with ISO-UK in the numpad kit is the way to go.

Indeed. In this case, given that DSA is a flat profile, adding a single <> key to the numpad kit would be enough.

Colevrak looks like it isn't happening, so could you at least include non-homing F & J keys?

I'm really glad you got somw traction on this. The last update made it sound like it might not happen.

oh, i guess i didn't make it clear that i wasn't doing homing keys, sorry about that! wanted to make it easy compat, and personally i don't use homing keys 

and thank you! i was really hoping it didn't stop dead in the water, and this was what i thought was the best way to move forward

Please consider adding a homing kit to support alternative layouts.  Cancel it if it doesn't reach MOQ.

Update!
Currently the menu deskmat is available to purchase here!
I've gotten quotes from SP, but they were more than I could ask anyone to pay. I'm now currently in the process of getting quotes for KAM.

Thanks, and stay safe everyone!

[msting]

OMG! KAM would seal the deal for me. I like it better than DSA.
Good luck!

When will the other deskmat be up for sale?

[KMPLSV]

any idea when we can expect the gb to start?

[KMPLSV]

ima need this.

[equalunique]

I can smell this keycap set and it's making me hungry

Just need to know if you're doing DoorDash or GrubHub for delivery

[Capitalistix]

If theres still time to preorder this, then count me in!

[dvorcol]

This is still in the Interest Check phase.  The Group Buy hasn't run yet.

[muppen]

norde kit would be nice

[mvhtnb]

Still cant wait for this to become reality! (With NORDE )

[rexorapter]

Is this still happening?

[asherw]

Any news? I'd love to get my hands on this set

[Rumblethumps]

Aww, I hope this isn't really dead

If you're changing the profile, you can edit the first post's title to reflect it (so when it appears on the "recent" page, it's more accurate).

[andromache]

If this set becomes real, count me in. Love how unique and refreshing it is.

[citrusfruit]

Looks good! idk if it's just me but some of the images aren't loading! 

[witz_]

Been keeping an eye on this set. Just bought the city-wok deskmat. I hope I will be able to get the keycap set too
