SA Lime ISO Nordic interest check

Hello fellow keyboard users!

Let me start by saying that I am a huge fan of SA Lime keycap set. They are absolutely my favourite keycaps, but I have one problem with them and that is a lack of ISO Nordic support.

I am planning on ordering the missing keycaps (+ a few extra keys) so that I can finally populate my whole keyboard with keycaps matching to the rest of the lime set.

I contacted Signature Plastics, and they are willing to manufacture these keycaps but the pricing is obviously affected by the amount of sets ordered.

I was wondering if there are any others who would like to have these keycaps to expand their SA Lime sets. If there is interest, we could arrange a group order and get these keycaps at a more reasonable price.

For example, if we order 25 sets, the price per set would be around 40 USD (+shipping and customs). Preliminary lead time would be around 12 weeks.

Here is a (rough) sketch of the keys that I am talking about.

Nice idea.

But in it’s current state only Finnish and Swedish keyboard builders might be interested.

How about adding Danish and Norwegian to make it really scandinavian?

I can only speak for myself, if I would spend 40$+shipping+customs on a few keys, I would at least want “my” letters included.

Thank you for the suggestion. I can certainly add the missing Æ and Ø keys to support also Norwegian and Danish layouts.

Certainly worth running by Signature Plastics. We have a few people who come around sometimes who’ve worked with them, and many are on the SP Discord server, but IIRC some of the interest checks I’ve seen have implied a small number of extra keys doesn’t instantly blow up the price; you just need to be prudent to balance your audience with your (and their) budget.

I’m just a dumb ol’ 'Merican, but I can certainly sympathize with wanting to get SA Lime suited for your purposes. I just bought a set on heavy discount and I like it a lot. I’m eager to figure out what I am going to put it on.

Don’t forget the other subtle differences between the layouts, not just Æ and Ø

Good call by wjrii. Signature Plastics is usually quite flexible with small additions to standard kits if the total key count doesn’t jump too high. Keeping it under a certain number of keys will ensure we stay close to that $40 sweet spot. Can’t wait to see the updated sketch with the new layout additions!

Thank you for the responses, here is the updated picture with additional keys. I hope that I didn’t miss any differencies but if I did please point those out!
