[IC] OG IBM Beige Keyset

(1/3) > >>

Dvoryke:
Uses nearly the exact same legends and keys from the IBM Model M, but compatible with Cherry MX Switches. It will come in SA profile, and I will work on this more if it gets generally good feedback.



Link to /r/mechanicalkeyboards thread, just because chances are I will only update it there.

I have been thinking about a keyset very similar to this for a number of months.
The problem is you're stuck with SP regular font.
We need to raise roughly $5000 to get Cherry Replica legends molds made in SA.
I've got some shots of a  lasered Cherry set that I think the color is fantastic on.

There HAS to be some project that could get people excited enough that we could break 200 orders.

tdc mentioned exactly what I said on /r/MK. It's impossible to make this on SA.
What if we combine efforts? Olimitto is similar to this.

Halvar:
This set cries "dyesub PBT" to me ... which I think would mean DSA or DCS though.

Really it's screaming "OG Cherry Doubleshot Replica" from GMK.
So if we can get 250 I'd say go Cherry over SA.
But I dont know. The keyboard life is tough.
