Ergodox: Keycap help! Pulse / Granite / Nantucket
« on: Wed, 13 April 2016, 15:22:56 »
Hello fellow geeks,

My 65g Zealios have me drooling over a project. I think it's time to finally build an ergodox. I am trying to make sure I have everything planned out here.

I am going to pull the trigger on the necessities: electrical components, 2x pcb, teensy v2 and case via profet23.  Ah stabs and and wires too*. Where do you suggest I get these? I think I may order 2x customs off reddit but I don't know what keycap to base it off of.

I have multiple keycap sets inbound including Pulse SA, Granite DSA and Nantucket SA. It looks like Granite will be first so I imagine I'll want to use that on an Ergodox, as the DSA profile will make it easy to find spare keys. Ideally, however, I would like to match Nantucket or Pulse but I feel like that'd be more of a project.

Granite:
    Common Kit: Yes
    Child Kits: Text Modifiers (+$27.99)
    Batch: Batch Two - Estimated Ship Date May 20, 2016

Pulse:
    Base Kit: Yes
    Child Kits: Novelties Kit (+$16.99)

Nantucket:
TKL: 1 @ $82 ea = $82
Homing: 1 @ $7 ea = $7

I need help planning! Originally, I was planning on designating Pulse SA to my KUL ES-87 w/ ergo-clears, Granite to my Pok3r (yet to be modified fully) and Nantucket for ???.

I imagine I should use a neutral color that would work with all of them... like black.

Who knows. Halp!
