Was thinking of just a clean set and instead of having fancy novelties, let's just make it with huge compatibility?
I get that, but.... cmon :rolleyes:

Yeah, the cross is definitely a must have :D
The swiss train station clock is also quite iconic

Mountain is nice, but better combine use the cervin (very iconic also). To do so you can use the Tobleron logo who has inside a hidden bear (bear of Bern)Show Image(https://metrouk2.files.wordpress.com/2016/11/ad_224989833.jpg)
thank you for the input man! I am considering everything. :thumb:

Don’t forget about ISO, pls... the colors and novelties look lovely! (I prefer the clean just red and white scheme tho)
MaxKeys does not offer ISO keys

A bit ironic that there won‘t be ISO support, even though that‘s what most (if not everyone) uses.
can't do anything about it. unless you're willing to wait for more than a year and pay a hundred dollars more than what maxkeys offer.

Welcome to MaxKeys.
The cost to add a new ISO Enter mold would be orders of magnitude more expensive than just changing a legend plate. What a lot of people seem to not realize is the molds are 2 parts. The main part of the mold is what determines the actual shape of the key, the smaller inner part, the "legend plate" determines the legend. Changing the legend plate is relatively simple as long as they already have whatever key profile you are going for. MaxKeys DOES NOT HAVE an iso enter mold. I imagine it would cost at least 10-20k. So say we start at the bottom end of that, 10k, and say we sell 100 sets, that means the price of each set would increase by at least $100 PER SET. So instead of $100 a set for maxkeys, you would have to run a $200 iso maxkey set. Once the mold is made then it would be more reasonable, but someone is gonna have to foot that bill. And that still assumes maxkeys is still willing/intersted in adding molds at all.

Thank you for taking the time to reply extensively. I didn’t comment on the ISO as a turn off, but as a wish because I really like the quality and color schemes that Maxkey offers and the ISO key would make it my dream set. Anyway, I understand that it’s not a popular key away from Europe.

Agreed. Can't have a Swiss set without paying homage!
