Title: [IC] Thick PBT SA Profile legend-less white Ergodox set
Post by: Talfrey on Sun, 05 January 2014, 15:20:16: I have been wanting to get a blank set of the deliciously thick SA profile keys for my Ergodox, and Signature Plastics can provide. I am reasonably confident that other geekhackers would be interested, so I am performing an interest check to see if anyone else would be interested so we can get a lower price point.

Looks like:

Yea, they have PBT SA profile. I bought a couple. Just check their inventory.

I have no normal keyboards, so I wouldn't have an interest in organizing such a GB, sorry!

Maybe run a GB for a "normal" keyboard and then have an ergodox kit as an add-on?

There are already plenty of "normal" keycap sets to choose from

Post by: ShriekBob on Mon, 06 January 2014, 09:20:46: I think basic economics suggests that TacticalStache is probably right, the way to go would be to split the set in to the "Alphas" and "Ergodox Mod", then add the mods for standard keyboards. At the very least it might drop the price on the Alphas for the Dox.

Also, I'm interested. I'd prefer them with legends, but I want two sets of caps for the Dox I'm building, one low, one high, and this seems like a good high profile set (unless someone does a KT profile set).

Awesome! I still think the GB will get a lot of attention because I mean there are very few Ergodox sets available.

Post by: nkzt on Wed, 29 January 2014, 17:12:59: I want PBT SA profile! But not for Ergodox :) I'm trying DIY dye-sub now and I want to test many profiles as possible.
I'm looking forward to GB.

Post by: tbc on Wed, 29 January 2014, 23:07:00: a normal set in black would be cool. cōmpletely disinterested in using high profile on an ergo board.

I am curious, is there an ergonomic problem with high profile? Or something that interferes with ergodox specifically?

Post by: tbc on Thu, 30 January 2014, 00:29:15: i PERSONALLY for me think that making your fingers reach higher is unergonomic. this applies to both standard and ergo boards; it's just mirw contradictory on a ergo board.

but no, SA caps work completely fine on the dox
