The ortho kit could need a R2 1u novelty.. as well as a R4 2u novelty (Smaug? Feel free to scrap the blank

i guess the usage of some icons instead of text is because of space?
May i ask: is it on purpose that the ortho kit has 4 enter keys (I know, different Rowan while the ISO enter in the base kit does not have a alternative color?

Wow, that's quick. Are you allowed to name the manufacturer yet? I already have an idea of who it probably is.

No problem, it’s not needed that badly anyway. Do you consider the 2u novelty?
Is there a ergodox render to come?

on a edges.
and Korean in the center
i think any monolegend is better
for me as a touch-typist legend is not mandatory, so i prefer to get something fancy-looking monolegend as a labels.
i'm waiting for this set, but not sure about profile, bcs in one message matt3o says that it will be high profile but not /dev/tty0 like... i'm curious

Now THAT's something to behold! Fine, let's one-up it by adding Georgian on front-center (and in an italic font, to irritate a certain youtuber!).

Very nice! I'm torn between this set and
DSA Drifter, but I think I'll have to save my money for the Elvish set.
