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.

for mx black but they are all in stock
My problem is people refuse to use common since are even think... now days.. if there not getting there way and a gold star and a puppy to pet.. then obviously the world is at fault and they need to pitch a hiss fit till they get there way.
I totally agree that MD is not perfect and sometimes there prices leave me going hu... but at the same time MD offers a lot of Exclusive! I don't see any one else offering Lazer are really any of Mito's drops!.. oops those are MD exclusives and outside of buying them second hand off mechmarket for most likely a handsome markup.. your never going to see them out side of MD.. least not round 1.
Then there is the fact that you know lot of people complain about MD and there lack of support are what not.. I contacted support several times. I found as long as your friendly <---- Keyword!... and not demanding <--- another keyword.. Then there support will pretty much bend over backwards to accommodate ya. I doubt I am just lucky enough for this to be the case. I really do but hey its possible.
Then there is the misinformation about MD that people love to spread.. like the Godspeed drop from what I have heard that wasn't MD's fault.. MD contacted those buyers and offered to get them the items in question. Those buyers refused and got refunded. Given they where most likely proxy buys.. the proxy's most likely just didn't want to have to wait are deal with it any longer.. not to mention people using buyer protection on them ETC ETC.. and decided to pull out. But of course instead of thinking about it in a rational method people where quick to blame MD. Cause why who knows....
I can't defend everything they do like sending out the 2 left handed PCB's for that one drop. Doing that once is one thing it continuing to happen. I can explain why it would happen but it shouldn't be happening.
I am sure Massdrop does the best they can with what they have and they do a service to the community.. its just there a very vocal minority that wants to whine cause they don't understand how mass drop works are why it even exist.
O yea one other thing keep in mind you might could get this cheaper on another website! but can you get it shipped outside the United States and if so how much? Shoot I seen another KB buy where shipping to other locations was OBSCENE we are talking like 100+ for some locations outside of American/Canada and that doesn't include vat or even there charges for customs.. so yea this might still be cheaper for some people.. not everyone lives in the United States where.. there decent amount of vendors to choose from and shipping fee's are reasonable.
