JTK HSA new profile

I understand that you cannot just add any key. But offering niche stuff like a stepped Ctrl and a myriad of 1u bottom row keys, while omitting support for HHKB layout (one of the most popular layouts in the community) seems rather strange. And to cover HHKB properly, you only need a 1.5u R2 Backspace and and a 1u R4 Fn (as the bottom row seems to be R3). In my opinion, with this addition you can please a lot more people.

Will support more layout in the future. As this is the first version, we dont want to add too many keys because this will increast the cost.

HHKB layout is very popular. All the recent GMK and ePBT base kits supports it. Half of my boards use Tsangan layout which is a variation of HHKB.

You can find the full layout from JTK website, there are truely many keys and will be some extra keys in the version sir.

maybe I have added them, I will confirme this before.

One more question about this profile - from what I can tell, HSA is shorter and a bit more uniform in profile than OSA - is that right? OSA is supposed to be a shorter version of SA, but it honestly still looks pretty tall to me.

The HSA Dolch looks interesting. I’m getting a black GSKT-00 with the HHKB layout and a red plate, so I might get the HSA Dolch set for it.

Wow even in these latest pictures they haven’t fixed the Scroll Lock key which is misspelled.

I wonder if the issue will make into production on the sets already in groupbuy!

In the comments, they said it would be fixed.

Hmm, the [GB] JTK HSA White on Black & HSA Beige on Brown seems to have this problem too… I wonder if it will be corrected…

Real talk though does anyone actually use a scroll lock key in 2020?

I think some spreadsheet users still use it.
