Need keycap ideas?
« on: Tue, 14 June 2016, 06:02:48 »
There was a line of toy figures in the 80s called "Muscle men". These had the most amazing detail to them and were so small! The concept was that they were all wrestlers with completely different characters. Go looking at their faces and you'll see what I mean!

I think they should provide plenty of inspiration!

"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada
