Hi everyone, this is KIGA.

This interest check is for SP Window View.

Interest Check Form
 (https://forms.gle/N3fN6mrnEVrjfKJ48)
(I would be really grateful if you could spend a couple of minutes to give us some feedback.)

This set has been inspired by WindowSwap (WindowSwap.com).
As their slogan said: WindowSwap is here to fill that deep void in our wanderlust hearts by allowing us to look through someone else's window, somewhere in the world.
They did it, I feel warm and love from there. So I designed this sp Window View.

This set is intended to be produced by Signature Plastics in doubleshot ABS in the 1-2-3-4-4 sculpted SA profile.

This set isn't ready for an IC. You need to fix your kitting - there are too many issues to list right now, but start with a base kit.

What SA sets have a base kit? I think this set is plenty read for an IC considering other sets posted recently.

Edit: The modifiers kit does need a few changes. Remove the 1.5u shift and replace it with a 2.25u. Also, there are two pipe keys so replace one of those with a 1.5u backspace for hhkb. A r3 1.75u control key would also be a nice touch. The accent supers are a bit odd, but I  think it could be a nice touch so you can keep those. Finally, please add a tilde key in the alphas kit, since only mod tilde is available atm.

Unless there's an alt alpha or 40s mod kit I'm not seeing I don't understand why mods and alphas should be split into two.

There's only one alphas kit and only one TKL kit. 99% of users will have to buy both. So put them together into a base kit.

There needs to be a separate spacebar kit, because 6 spacebars in the base kit is absurd and will cost a million dollars. That spacebar kit needs split spacebars (why is the alice 'B' in the alphas kit if there's no split space available??).

ISO is its own kit for some reason - it should be in the base. It has 1.25 shift, but there's also one in the mods kit. The >/< key is in alphas for some reason. There's a 1.5 shift in mods which is basically useless outside of 40s, and two mod pipes in the mod kit.

There are no size labels on anything except spacebars. No row indicators on anything except alphas kit. No indication of whether homing keys are scoops / bars / whatever. The '/" key is rendered in bold for some reason. There's only one board rendered.

There are no R4 1.25 novelties. There are no fn keys at all. There's no options for split backspace.

If OP's vision is to just have this fit one or two layouts then that's fine, but just bundle everything into a single base kit instead of splitting it up and making people pay more. Right now it's missing a bunch of keys, has a bunch of unnecessary extra keys, has far too many spacebars, has half support for a number of layouts (tsangan, alice), it's missing a bunch of important information in the kitting renders, and it has only a single board rendered.

Thanks a lot for your feedback. Since it is the first time to design a keycap, many work preparations are not enough. I will continue to improve.

If you don't plan to have alt alpha or alt mod, then why not just combine them into a base kit

this was acceptable kitting in 2016 but now you should just have it as all one kit, with extension, novelties, and ISO as needed. this will also slightly reduce the wholesale price for you.

I could be wrong but I think SP only makes 1-1-2-3-4-3. I think only Domikey does double-shot SA in 1-1-2-3-4-4.

These SA Carbon R2 progress photos indicate Signature Plastics does have tooling for 1-1-2-3-4-4

That said, 1-1-2-3-4-3 is the typical SA layout.  SA Carbon R3 moved to this typical layout.

Edit: added SA Carbon R1
