I don't have much time, currently.
I must prepare all keylists and SVG graphics by Monday. After that, I can answer questions again and pack and ship stuff.

Everyone is dying. Now cross your legs and say ommmmmmmmmmm.
@newbs: These "deadlines" are all total horseshit by 7bit to make you pay up. The caps won't even be made until many, many months from now. And you can keep ordering them the whole time.

Horseshit indeed!

It also means he has until Monday to fix the [( and )] keys on the CADET base kit. Because if those are going to be conventional [{,}] keys instead of the more authentic [(,)] then I don't need the separate kit for them and I can swap for something else. But even then, he's got to turn them around 180 degrees. Fix that shit, 7bit! I know the CADET set is important to you too, so I know you want to get it right as much as I do.

Hi 7bit, I sent you a PM but I guess it stays in outbox means you won't get it. Can you please modify my order number because I forgot to include it in the note with my payment...
Thank you!

All items in the Outbox look like they haven't been sent, but they have. 7bit is just busy with the Cadet layout and the deadline.

The hands look cool. Who designed them for you?
How on earth will you pay for all these new legends?
And why not fix some of Gorton's uglier glyphs: like that O of a Q? IBM did a much nicer job on beamspring.

The [(,)] keys are back. Yay!
Now what happened to the <{,}> keycaps? Not that I intend to use them, but I'm curious why they don't appear on the list of new legends in those posts above.

These are just 2 pages, so you can see how the result of the new ordering system looks like.

Now, I don't know any keyboards/layouts that put a shift key in the Caps Lock position, so for those keyboards which use that key position for neither Caps Lock nor (swapped) Control, the only option is to use the triangle symbol. Do I have that correct, or am I missing something?
As an additional point to this, a 1.25u and 1.5u Caps Lock would help those switching Caps Lock and Control.
I will add these to the MODEXTRA kits.

Interesting.
But also strangely unnerving. It feels like knowledge We (buyers) Were Not Meant to Have.

These where not so really popular.

Is there any chance in the future there will be blanks for the rest of the keys that are currently unavailable? (i.e. Row 3: 125, 175, 200, 225, 275, numpad '+', and numpad 'Enter'). I'd really love to build a blank keyboard with a few highlights.
Thanks. I appreciate your group buy.
I will add the missing blank keys ...

Not sure whether this was an option, but any way to add a 1u R3 Fn? This way I can pair it with a 1.75u right Shift, a la HHKB.

You should be passing grep a filename as an argument instead of catting and then piping! I'm very disappointed in you, 7bit.

These, I want for the fun of it:
MAGIC, XMIT, DUCK, 7BIT MODE, 7BOT MODE
I'm not sure about TAB, BACK SPACE, DELETE, END. Aren't they already in other sets?
Here are some more ideas for HONEYB/FUNCTION or similar:
ATTN
HOLD
CLEAR
CMD
KILL
ROOT
POWER
READY
LAUNCH
