I'll have to check and see if there are any nice purples/orange. I am slightly biased towards orange, but I'll entertain purple as well. The purple may be too dark when I have the black legends.

pretty much the billards set purple is your only purple color choice

and +1 vote for adding the 1.75x sized short right shift to the winkey less sets

I believe that I got permission from Hashbaz to use the Cherry font, so yes. These sets will be Cherry font.

I have...I just haven't updated the OP. I need to add ISO shifts and the 1.75 option. When the ISO seta are ordered they will come in a pack of two, one black and one white. I won't make them two different sets so that we can keep the prices powers for all the ISO users. :)

@houlty: Welcome to Geekhack!
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

Why is this even an interest check still? Everyone knows there will be plenty of sales. Just sell every key of the set individually so those who want iso keys can just add on as many as they want. Same with 1.75x size shift for pures and Cherry 1800, etc. With the appropriate Google ordering form people should be able to make their own sets fairly easily.
Maybe some people want an extra left shift if they are worried about wearing it out from video gaming for example.

Agreed.  I'd be in for 1-2 sets, but would like the options danielucf suggested if possible.  Have full sets available, but also having the ability to add individual keys would likely be popular.

I'm sure someone around here will take over.  Seems to be enough interest.  If nobody does, I'll try it, but that should really be a last resort.

This is going to be group buy prices then? Kind of a negative without yellow/orange/iso/1.75x shift, but I guess we can still group buy the missing pieces *shrug*
