[For sale] The Mrinterface Switch Sample Bag

12 Jul 2012, 16:30

I'm in for the lite version - no idea about the Model F or Model M thing...
As for shipment I'll go with "Mail in a box that fits the mailbox outside Europe"

Futaba.

I'll add a proper picture including legends when I find the time. If you watch the video you will get a global idea :-)

Strange, i would swear the Focus keyboards i saw the other day used these.

I am getting better at creating the Model M and Topre switch testers.... Plus it helps if you have those back mounting plates laser cut. I think they look beautiful :

Now I'm beginning to wonder why so many people opt for the lite bag :evilgeek:

Oh shoot... is this round finished? I want a Full Bag!

Hi Soarer!

You can still enter.

Since I am going to use your excellent keyboard software in the future , you can have a full bag for the price of a lite :-)

PM me your name, address, bag preference, insured/non-insured shipping and payment preference( IBAN or PAYPAL )

14 Jul 2012, 21:07

I am honoured! :lol:

PM sent

I guess a Model F switch would need two layers, to make a clamp either side of the tube...?

The mounts do look beautiful though - looking up at the Topre spring is presumably quite hypnotic!

I have to agree, that laser cut Topre looks really nice.
Hmmm, +€15 to upgrade to the full-set nets me an additional two very nicely made switches?

Exactly... :-)

Interesting, where did you have them cut?

Any idea on when the first round might ship?

15 Jul 2012, 17:03

Hey Mrinterface...

I somehow managed to miss this thread because I thought it was a re-shipping try bag.

If you still have a full set I'm taking it...

(will it be using the nice laser-cut plexi mounted switches?)

Anyway I take it for 40 Euros + insured shipping within Europe.

Because I think what you're doing there is fantastic and it's good if some money goes to you and some to DT...

(I do already have quite a few shiny keyboards but every collector should get this set and encourage you for creating such a thing...)

Keep on the good work and count me in if you still have a full set (+ Model F)

EDIT: 42 Euros + insured shipping within Europe and you can put a Model F inside my bag ; )

Oooh very nice.

15 Jul 2012, 20:31

Those look beautiful... im glad i got the full bag

15 Jul 2012, 20:33

I'm kinda sad I didn't.

15 Jul 2012, 21:21

And I am upgrading.

Hit me up for a full set. Should I transfer the rest through Iban?

16 Jul 2012, 23:05

Now I'm beginning to wonder why so many people opt for the lite bag

How about sending the disassembled F and Topre switches along with them beautifully crafted mounting plates?

17 Jul 2012, 17:16

Hey, can I still get in on this? I'm on the switch try list, but I figure since I will be paying shipping costs there, why not just buy them outright and wait less? I'll take a lite bag to the US, uninsured. Should I PM you with details or something?

17 Jul 2012, 19:05

I just joined Deskthority to see what you guys have to offer with my new found keyboard passion. Could not believe my eyes when I saw someone was offering a kit like this. I would love a full kit to the US, is it too late to get one? I think I will PM you as well if it's all the same.

17 Jul 2012, 20:58

sad_destroyer and Snooter : you have been added to the second round.

End of August.

UPDATE :

ALL PACKAGES SENT.

All participants in Round 1 : please write a little story about the switches in this thread.

Gonna change the second round a bit so it is going to be easier for me.

Also : no more Lite bags in the second round, so only Full.
