Don't see these provided in a lot of group buys so I thought I'd gauge interest to see if its worthwhile doing a run in a couple of different colors through SP. DCS profile with WYSE fonts.
I think it would be great to do some in color schemes that will compliment already completed group buys, personally I'd love to see CCnG and RA2.0 covered but I'm open to suggestions. Also figured that if this went well we could do a run of the standard cherry colors/legends (ie BoW, WoB, Black on Beige) as by then SP will have everything up to scratch with the new legends.
Keen to hear what everyone thinks!
EDIT: Poll added! (http://www.easypolls.net/poll.html?p=51eff6dbe4b07e593b7e1ec9)

Sorry, maybe this is my ignorance talking, but what exactly is an Anti-Caps Lock? I'm not sure what this is checking interest for. ;D

A row 3 Control to put where caps lock usually is and a row 4 caps lock to put where Control usually is.

Thank you! I have seen these, but was not familiar with the name. :)
Well, I'm interested! Not sure if I'd use it a whole lot, but it might be cool to have.
-
I would be interested :)
Even more if they were made for BS.
-
I would be interested :p

I'm interested.
I use caps-lock as winkey in mac a lot.

I believe you can already get those on Unicomps site. Check out pckeyboard.com

I know. I want them to be in different colours!
-
Looking to start a poll to gauge interest of colors, do I need to contact a mod to add one?
-
I have no idea :(
-
Would definitely be in.
-
YES please.

Yes a Mod should be able to help with a poll.

I am interested as I hate caps lock, so anything anti-caps lock im in.
but again... i swapped those keys on one of the boards, and my left palm keeps on accidently hit that key to turn the caps lock on, so i changed back to normal. so i dont really know if I am interested or not. :confused: :rolleyes:
-
I don't use caps lock at all so I've actually swapped the keys around and then re-mapped the CTRL key on the bottom row to launch my browser.
-
interested, I hope raindrop would be included

Going to try and get the mods to put a poll up for me, at the moment I will be including the following for voting.
CCnG
RA2.0
RainDrop
Sanctuary
Valentines
Will probably do 2 of these but I'll obviously need to see some numbers and speak with SP before anything is set in stone.

Added a poll! (http://www.easypolls.net/poll.html?p=51eff6dbe4b07e593b7e1ec9) Decided to use EasyPolls instead of the forum one, this will allow people to choose their favourite 2 color schemes instead of just the one.
-
White on Black Cherry font
-center stem full touch
-off center stem stepped
-center stem stepped (ask i3oilermaker)
-
voted!
I guess there are more people who have RA 2.0 or CCnG than Raindrop, but I wish Raindrop would be picked :)
-
Will the set(s) that get made be made for all modifier colors (CCnG & GnCC, RoW & RoG & WoR for RA 2.0)? Or just the "main" modifier colors?
-
Im interested.

CCnG, Raindrop and RA2.0 are all dead close at the moment. Could go either way!

I will be putting all colors up for order but whether or not we reach the MOQ for the less popular colors is hard to say. Red on Gray from the RA2 set for instance is probably going to be hard.

That's good news, thanks. I'll be pushing hard for Red on Gray RA2!

Awesome, I've been hoping for this.
-
This is probably going to be too few in numbers of a request to actually happen...
White on Black "Backspace" [Full or Center Stem Stepped I don't care]
Retro DSA "Backspace" [Full or Center Stem Stepped I don't care]

Yeah I'm sticking with Caps and Ctrl for the time being, I might get SP to organise blanks though.

CCnG and RainDrop have taken the lead. Will leave the poll running for a couple more weeks and then start a GB thread with the winners!

great.
I think both full touch center-stemmed and stepped left-stemmed are needed. what about this?

I'll probably include them but whether or not they reach MOQ is another story.

You should cover all possible keycap sizes not just center stemmed row 3 1.75u ctrl and row 4 1.25u caps lock.
Remember to offer a row 4 1.5u caps lock and of-center stemmed row 3 1.75u ctrl both stepped and flat.
How about stepped center stemmed row 3 1.75u ctrl?
I know there is a mold at sp for stepped center stemmed row 3 1.75u caps lock but I'm unsure about ctrl.

I'll need to think about this, I want to avoid this blowing out into a massive kit if possible. I will discuss the chances of center-stemmed stepped CTRL's with SP but I don't know if they have the capabililty. Don't know if I'll bother with off-center stems as I don't think enough people will want them to make it worthwhile. Will wait and see though.
At the moment I'm thinking of providing the following:
- 1.75 R3 CTRL (Center-stemmed, full touch)
- 1.75 R3 Function (Center-stemmed, full touch)
- 1U R4 Caps Lock
- 1.25 R4 Caps Lock
- 1.5 R4 Caps Lock

I insist in that you should offer atleast a 1.75u R3 CTRL (of-center stemmed stepped) since you are offering a 1.5u R4 caps lock and the majority of all the boards that are having a 1.5u CTRL is having a of-center stemmed caps lock.

As I said earlier I need to speak with SP before agreeing to anything regarding the stepped CTRL keys. Have no problem including them if the capability is there though, that would bring us up to a 6-key kit.
