Title: May '13 geekhack key - retro DSA geekhack (lower case!?)
Post by: mkawa on Sun, 19 May 2013, 15:15:21

Hey buds,

This month is pretty low profile. We made some geekhack keys to go with your sweet new retro sets (missed the gb? well how convenient! techkeys has some extra :D).

The only trick to this was that we realized that DSA has less legendable area, and that we had to cut a new legend anyway because of the new profile, so we cut a lowercase cherry legend and dressed it up in the same green as your sweet looking enter key, and techkeys' retro gamer kits.

available at techkeys right now for 3$.

Given the state of our finances and the cherry legend for DCS effort, much of this money will probably go directly toward the cherry legends and the polycarb set.

we have enough money to pay the initial invoice (legend cutting). basic prototyping costs are covered, but contingency funds (redos, basically) are thin if existent at the moment. that said, we're blocked on boilermaker and hashbaz making initial legend graphics for cutting, so there is not a huge amount of urgency for more money at the moment.
