I was wondering why the insert, delete, home cluster is teal instead of pink. Most keycap sets I have seen here that do a two tone set up use the opposite color on that section.

Pretty much because there would be TOO much pink if those were pink as well. I think that section looks better as teal than pink though.

There was quite an amount of debate about this earlier. What is shown currently in the OP was a compromise that was reached. I feel the alternating gives some balance, breaks it up and keeps it from being overwhelming. I think most people interested came to the same conclusion.

I skipped Cream Cheese just for this set. I wasn't going to use them anyway.
Lets get the color shade and extra caps in order, so we can all agree on what's going to be in the GB.

What kind of font color are we talking about? Are we trying to get as close to the mock up as possible, or are we going for black on all the keys?

I hope the OP considers custom colors for this set. At 50 sets, it would be only an extra $10 per person. The current colors doesn't match the mockup.

He already said he was considering them. I think most people were fine with the idea too.

Once I get an email back from SP, I'll also ask for prices on Tenkey kit and ISO kit.

the JRET will need to be blank to cut cost of this key.(info based on Tsang CreamCheese GB)

Bad news:

From sp about the Miami and tilted modifiers

 Unfortunately neither of these SVG files as drawn are insert moldable...


About the color

 I will caution you the color combination will not provide much contrast. While the colors may look nice together, the contrast after legends have been molded will be very weak. I do not have much RCR in stock, so manufacturing lead time will be 7 weeks from receipt of payment.


This gb will still go forward if everyone is fine with this

Curious... did they say why exactly they aren't useable? There didn't seem to be a problem having the angled text weeks ago when I checked with them since it is a single width font.

Too complex of an Svg. That's all she told me.

The prices I gor for an 89 pc set is not bad

Ok... I guess some letters is now even too hard / too much effort for SP. WTF? They really do **** on their customer base. They have gotten too complacent with their near monopoly and just don't give a f*ck. China, please save us!!!

Maybe I am being a little harsh, and I can see there may be some issue with how crammed the geek hack is, but the Miami key? That should be doable, it's only 5 letters on a single line.

What really irritates me the most is how much I busted my balls finding a cool font that had single line width. That isn't easy. I even vetted that font and the angled orientation, so I really don't know where the problem is all the sudden.

We've done some pretty whacky SVGs. You probably just didn't follow the guidelines for SVGs. The legends you want to make aren't that complex.
