PBT Have Pride
Design Goals
-
All proceeds I receive as a designer will be donated to the Marsha P. Johnson Institute
*Proceeds are revenue – costs
-
Being trans myself, I wanted to have a keyset that would represent myself and I couldn't find any trans flag sets. I hope that this set can be a source of happiness for other trans and queer people.
Update #2

Vendor Confirmed!
I am really happy to share with everyone that Aeternus will be the vendor for Have Pride. They have been incredibly helpful and have offered to also donate 100% of proceeds to charity. Dededecline has been immensely helpful with figuring out manufacturing and I couldn’t ask for more from a vendor partner. In the last two months the set has come a long way and I feel is in a much more polished state thanks to the help and guidance I have received from those in the KRK discord and especially Dededecline.

Change to Dye Sub PBT Cherry
Due to cost constraints and kitting constraints with DSS I will be moving to using Dye Sub PBT with Cherry profile. While working on kitting the set for DSS, I had reached a point where any further kitting changes to reduce the number of keys would cut the compatibility and make the set work for less people which doesn't meet the intended goal of being accessible to the trans community, cutting kits like the flag kit cuts the identity and purpose of the set and cutting the current base kit leaves those who want a set that is more stealth for those who aren't out or want something to take to work without drawing extra attention. This will hopefully work better with our goal of making the set accessible to as many people as possible and will allow for better kitting options. I do want to give a big thank you to SP for all their help with quoting and questions on kitting. They have been truly incredible, and I hope to work with them in the future.

Icons!
I have added icons for mods and novelties for the set to replace standard text mods. These may need tweaking to their overall style but I am excited to hear what everyone has to think about them!

Kitting Changes
Kitting changes can be seen below. The structure of a base and flag kit still remains and kits have been expanded to add more compatibility. Swapping manufactures has allowed for us to be more liberal with kitting choices and offer a wider variety of kits. I have brought back the Nord kitting and have added kitting for Colemak, Colemak DH, Dvorak, and workman layouts.
disclaimer, kitting represents our current idea of kitting for the set and separated out to gauge interest in different potions, final kitting will be confirmed when manufacture selection is finalized. Final kitting will include a base and flag kit with other kits based off demand

New Interest Check form
There will be a new interest check form given the number of changes that I have made. If there are any specific keys that are missing or a kit that would make a big difference please let me know so I can address this. If a kit is missing , for example nord kitting, and it is a necessary kit to have for you to be interested in the set, please let me know. Any kits less than 100 units will likely not be able to produced but I will keep an eye out. The new IC form can be found at the bottom of this page.

Thank you!
A huge thank you to everyone for being incredibly supportive especially those in my discord and friends. Everyone in the KRK discord has been incredibly helpful and I wouldn’t have been able to make this much progress without you all. A huge thank you to Dr. Ratsby,NoPunIn10Did, and Cylent for kitting help, ImperfectLink for KRK, and Banned and iinko for blender stand files.
