Thinking of doing that with my Poker. Do you think it would be a good idea? I've no experience with SA SPH caps. I just really like the look of them.
This configuration is interesting. But it looked like you need to spend a lot:
HONEY/ALPHA/RED (ALPHA kit in red | $29)
HONEY/PUNCT/RED (PUNCT kit (DE,DK,FI,NO,SE,UK,US) | $39)
HONEY/FUNMOD/BLACK (Function and modifier kit in black | $39)
HONEY/SPACE625/BLACK (Space (6.25 units; black) | $5)
HONEY/REDESCAPE/R3
Total of US$113 (!!)
AND even then, these are all Row 3, meaning your Poker 2 will be very flat! I don't know if it is worth the $ to get the look but not the curvature of the board. I could be wrong as I am relatively new too.
Dude, don't make me feel all guilty about my order now.
The thing is I've always wanted to try a DSA set and similarly they're all flat. People don't seem to have a problem with them on their Pokers. I think the small size of the board helps with the lack of profile. I'll try it at least, seems there's always a healthy after-market if I can't get along with it.

Forgot to add enter keys to my order. I bet the ISO enter is SA also now? I have a vague memory of them not beeing the right profile last time..

It has ever been. But it is now double shot, not engraved.

Yeah!
DSA with only 1 and 1.5 units keys.
BTW, I made the ERGO kit in only row 3 but I could also make a row 1-4 version.

I am sure the approval took a bit because the GH mods just wanted to make sure that it was an official thread since it was in marketplace.

Thinks are changing. I'll add you \mu key again.
Also:
I will re-think the red stuff again ...

Great stuff! An entire Greek alphabet would be nice, actually, but we seem to be short of Greeks and mathematicians here…

Yeah, red is attractive but you do need to see if it should stand on its own. It's almost branching out on its own as it is now.

No. For full red a modifier kit would be missing and the numeric kit is missing the vertical "+", "enter" and "numlock".
Oh, and "print/scroll/pause", "insert/delete" block plus cursor keys are also missing in red.
Yeah, the plan for red keys was just ESACAPE, TRANSMIT, etc and a simplified international alnum kit.
Now this is growing to a 2nd color style.

Nah, just keep it as it is.....this would help me saving lots of money.
But would it be possible to add a black escape (and/or kbrunner) key? That would be great.

Round 6 is going to be so red. With a Dirge set for the function row.
I'll colour match a nice BBC Micro while I have the wheel. For future reference.

Black kbdrunner is already available.
Black ESCAPE should be part of FUNMOD/BLACK.

What are those question marks on the HONEY/CURSOR caps?
Posted: 29 Oct 2013, 15:04
by 7bit
Place holders for legends which should be added later. I calculate prices for kits from the layout graphics, so these are there to drive the price up.

I think a "Z" in row 2 is needed in the French Azerty kit and a row 2 "E" with the "€" would be nice too. I am gonna place a pretty big order for 6 or 7 kits, i hope there will be more orders from other french people to make this happens.

Z in row 4 is the same as Z in row 2.
€ on E ? I just removed that from BEPO and we did not have this in Round 4 FR layout.
Also, it would make FR layout even more expensive!

Can you put the Keys '<>' and '\|' also in HONEY/TKL?
Posted: 29 Oct 2013, 16:30
by 7bit
HONEY/TKL is for US-layout Filco tenkeyless only!!!!!!

But maybe I should add that key to the language kits ...

So the enter is dsa after all? Lets pay SP for a new mould!
Posted: 29 Oct 2013, 17:21
by 7bit
Please stop drinking Vodka!
With the money they made from Round 4, SP purcheased molds for these SA-family key caps:
ISO-RETURN (now for double shots instead of just blanks)
2.25 units, row 3 (left SHIFT and RETURN)
2.75 units, row 3 (right SHIFT)
We also paid for 6.25 and 7 units space bars!
So we paid for all those keys which Diatec use for their spherical kits, all from the painfully collected Round 4 money!

They could pay back the favour by placing a nice big order in Round 5. (And then resell them at a markup in the Japanese market.) Same for Noppoo with those MX fit Topre clones they're showing off. Go high end. Go Honeywell!
