UPDATES:A lot of information has come out in the past couple of days and I want to thank everyone who showed support and really wanted to see DSS Hand Work return in its original form. I cannot begin to express how thankful I am to have a community that not only stands up for what is right, but also wants to see as much inclusion as possible. The return of the original coloring of Hand Work would not have been possible without any of you!
From the bottom of my heart, thank you all!VENDORSNA: P3D Store

Hi,everyone! I'm Hammer.
I want to welcome you to the introduction of DSS Hand Work.
I like to consider it a faithful reimagining of the original Cherry Handarbeit board, however this time around it uses Signature Plastics stock colors.
DSS is a unique profile, similar to that of DSA but more sculpted
As much as I love the original styling,the board was never released to the general public and only used as a trade show sample. My goal with using Signature Plastics' DSS profile is to not only make the set as affordable and accessible as possible, but also get it into the hands of fan much sooner than GMK queue times.
Signature Plastics queue time is about 10-12 weeks.
What you may notice from the very start is the interesting kitting!
The main idea for this set is to offer a wide range of compatibility that was not present with the original, especially in the 40s department.
As an avid user of all things 40% I decided to make my main focus to support those awesome boards, however, I did not want to leave anyone out meaning the kit also supports all the way up to 104 style layouts!
Any keys that is shared between 40% keyboards and larger ones are kept common and not repeated so there is not an abundance of wasted plastic that is left unused!
As for right now, the set is scheduled to release April 2nd (April fools days wasn't available... I know)
I have a bunch of surprises in store and I hope everyone enjoys the set.
