Uniform Cherry Profile :
Dolch? Beige?
With all the hype from
people about new keycap profiles I am here to propose
something a tad different with an existing profile we all
know and love: Uniform Cherry.
I am
proposing to do a set using all
Row 4 keycaps
(bottom row) making it completely uniform. This allows less
keys in the full kit to cover more boards similar to DSA
sets, whilst keeping some angle to the typing experience.
Why Row 4?
That is simple: Because the keycaps/molds already
exist in all sizes in R4:
1u | 1.25u | 1.5u | 1.75u | 2u | 2.25u | 2.75u | 6u |
6.25u | 7u
Cost?
Still TBD - Still kicking
tires with the idea to see if its worth pursuing further.
Some
may be worried about spending too much on something they
will dislike; thus I propose that the initial run we do a
small kit that can cover 65% and smaller boards, so the
debut of a uniform cherry set isn’t as harsh on the
wallet.
Material?
With the goal
of keep cost down I’d like to do a PBT Dyesub kit. I have
spoken to a company that believes they can do some good
reverse dye sub, so I’d like to challenge them with doing a
Dolch style reverse dye sub. If that is unrealistic then a
plain beige ala Enjoy PBT set will have to do.
Kit?
65% and smaller; feedback welcome but know I want to
keep the kit as small as reasonably possible with
covering as many common compact boards as we can.
Option 1 - Plain Beige
Option 2 - Dolch
But my ORTHO! But my 38.35%!
Like I said kit is open for discussion, but we can’t
add too many keys so this can be cheap cheap cheap!
(PS
- Love note from a non 40% user here; can you 40% keyboard
designers get on the same page when it comes to keysizes???
k thx bye)
Are you nuts?
Probably but I
have tested the theory out mix and matching a bunch of other
sets and I am quite satisfied. Granted its not 100% like
Cherry but the uniform sculpt is better than flat DSA
anyday.
