Support for Alternative Layouts
This is a summary of how alternative layouts have been supported by kits such as Colevrak and Homing. It is not a discussion of alt layout performance and development, but if that interests you I highly recommend starting with Pascal Getreuer’s A guide to alt keyboard layouts (why, how, which one?). It’s a concise and comprehensive overview with links to some great sites that go deeper. He also has a separate Links about keyboards page. The Keyboard layouts doc he recommends explains layout goals and metrics in detail, summarizing the alt layouts discussed here as well as more than one hundred others. Sculpted-profile The majority of custom keycap sets are sculpted-profile (Cherry, SA, MT3, KAT, etc. - more on profiles generally here) so let’s start there. Because each row has a unique keycap shape, alt layouts require a unique keycap for each legend that moves off its QWERTY row.

Can you take a pic by any chance with the the lemon drop spinner keycap? Would love to see how that looks before I confirm.
Yay!
Truthfully we've been working pretty hard to make sure we ship on time or earlier on these projects and I'm glad it's going well. Hope you enjoy the set! It's beautiful.
I have two boards waiting for this. Cant wait for delivery.
Look forward to what MD will bring during 2018.
That said, I don't want to drag down this exciting moment with how horrendous the shipping contract decision at MD is. I can't wait to get these. This is one of three keycap sets I currently have in the pipeline from you guys, with matt3o's MT3 keycaps hopefully shipping in the next month and then Oblivion shipping mid next year. Looking forward to all of them, but really looking forward to this being the first to arrive so I can finally get this keyboard outfitted. Thanks, MD!
So for over a week everyone is posting their pics on Reddit and getting karma, and then when yours FINALLY arrives... People are so sick of seeing it that you get get little to no karma. Not that I'm a karma whore or anything, but it is pretty lame.
So that means it shipped from 10/26-10/27 to 11/06. Which is 12 days. *Right* on point with my initial projection. Guess I broke the record! :D
Forreal though, it sucks to see everyone getting theirs while you're left twiddling your thumbs.
I was hoping I would have it by the new year, but given how it's going, that's looking very unlikely.
I'm in Australia.
