Ok, I got the beta samples in from SP with the original
colors. Seeing how scratch prone the GSF is, I can
understand why SP doesn’t want to produce them. Just too
much risk of unsatisfied customers.
More images and commentary/review on IMGUR.
Maybe a private buy for that set in the future,
because I think it’s gorgeous scratches and all.
Here
are the update kits and colors. I added in additional split
space bars to the ALT kit, so hopefully that opens this up
to more people.
Old colors on the left, new colors on the right. The
shift from white to dark is much more spread out and subtle
now, and the newer white is much less blue and should match
the other keys better than WFJ.
Should be a few weeks
to restart production, Summer 2017 or bust! Thanks everyone
for your feedback and whatnot, I hope this set makes a bunch
of people happy.
Ok guys, quick update, and not
necessarily the good kind.
The darkest color (GSF) with
the current PBT SA tooling texture basically turns the caps
into small chalkboards. For the various test runs, SP’s
production crew were EXTREMELY careful and took extra time
to ensure the keys weren’t scratched, but even if the added
labor was affordable, the second those keys hit the shipping
bags… The set would be completely ruined…
So we are
adjusting the coloring a bit, and restarting the overall
tooling process. This is going to add a few more weeks onto
the production time, but GRADE is coming this summer, one
way or the other. I will post up new imagery as soon as I
can update it, along with the updated color codes. Below is
the cellphone snap SP sent me of the existing (old)
colors.
When I originally planned GRADE, I included ISO and
non-standard keys in with the Base Kit so we could help our
brethren and sisters out with MOQ’s. However, since this is
a Set of the Month, MOQ’s aren’t a thing. So, Melissa at SP
and I decided to break the kits out completely, this should
make the whole set even MORE affordable for MORE people,
which was the whole point of one set in the first place.
Pricing
will break down as follows:
-
MANUFACTURING HAS STARTED!
-
7u Spacebar and ISO Enter:
Both will be PBT!!!
-
The ISO Enter key will be blank, SP is unable to print on the curved surface of that cap at the moment. I figured the community would rather have a blank PBT cap vs an ABS cap.
-
Escape kit:
-
We are going to break the escape keys out of the main set, so anyone who purchased Ice Cap or Industrial (or any other R3 set for that matter) can get these.
-
I added an extra red key so people with other sets can enjoy the full spectrum.
-
I also added in a violet cap to both round out the rainbow, and also enable the kit to be used across the FN row.
-
Multiple Colored Kits:
-
There have been a few requests for something along the lines of colored mods, or arrow keys. We are holding off on these for now.
-
Ortho Kit:
ITS HAPPENING
-
Colors:
-
A few people have asked about changing some of the colors. IRL these are going to align just fine. Part of the issue is how the renders look vs reality, and the translucency of some of the other colors people have recommended. The chosen colors are opaque, and shouldnt allow much if any light bleed.
-
Homing Keys:
F and J will be dished homing keys.
-
Pricing:
-
I have the initial pricing in, just waiting for permission to share. Very similar structure to other SA PBT sets.
That’s it for now. Please subscribe to Signature Plastic’s newsletter to get updated ASAP when the set is available, or keep an eye out here.
