Jokes aside, I find the "Space Cadet" thing to be a bit... foreign... to IBM keyboards. YMMV.

Oh that! Was not intended for the final tshirts, just for this "preview".depletedvespene wrote: 23 Sep 2020, 00:43The color combination is very nice (don't change it).

Wasn't that a way to inflate the prices of model m's based on the supposed scarcity of those? I remember seeing something about it somewhere, maybe on a chyros video?Weezer wrote: 23 Sep 2020, 00:57 This is one of the few known pictures of the rare "mandolin" crystal on some Model Ms

These crystals are highly sought after and will raise the price of a keyboard by $50-100 easily. They're more accurate than the normal time keeping piece in the later keyboards and of a higher quality.
Perhaps you're getting confused by something else

Hi again guys!
I had a minute today so I uploaded the tshirt design, I went with both space cadet and industrial gray. You can find them here: https://teespring.com/stores/the-devils-walkingstick
I hope Darkcruix gives me his seal of approval!

There is too much empty space and looks too centered. Maybe try something like this?M9HM wrote: 27 Sep 2020, 03:57 Hi again guys!

I like your design better. Is it possible to make it look more faded, adding some vintage flair?xxhellfirexx wrote: 27 Sep 2020, 21:00 There is too much empty space and looks too centered. Maybe try something like this?
