Those should actually do (I had them bookmarked from a while ago, one of the sizes should be really similar to the pin of a Cherry MX switch) :)

I'm surprised there are no Buckling Spring clones (or similar switches) out there, I only know of the Ya Sheng ones. As for the actuation point, it should be ralatively simple to make it variable, no? I mean, by measuring the electrical charge due to capacitance for many distances you should be able...

I intend to use Mrinterface's MX/Alps adapters for caps (and possibly an MX/MX one to achieve the same keycap height) As for the 3rd dimensions, as Daniel pointed out, this can be arranged using the pin sockets. Basically, my idea for hot swapping is not sockets that are basically flat (like the Sma...

Wow, thanks for the links jacobulous, I never stumbled upon this, or any custom where the same plate was used for MX and Matias switches (I have seen the universal PCB & plate mounting holes image though)! I thought of the mounting hole issue for ALPS but I guess it's something I will have to try to...

Universal Matias/MX plate viability

Hello everyone. I'm quite a noob and I've never even soldered anything, let alone built a custom board but lately I've been thinking of designing my own board. I've got a list of features and a layout in my mind (and some pen and paper stuff - quite a lot actually :P) and one of those features is th...

Well you end up with 303 euros for 4 boards, so ~76euros/board (with shipping) == ~102 dollars/board :)

Haha I was actually just about to PM 002 pretty much asking how he got it too, just checked the thread before sending it on the off chance someone had posted today :P

002, if they released it at about 65USD (as mentioned by a couple of Chinese reviewers) do you think it would be worth the price?

Yeah, I think Corsair has exclusive access to the switches for some months (perhaps even a year?)

ehm..7bit seems still busy.. I'll wait for the shipping cost info :) Shipping costs 43 EUR up to 5kg and 60 EUR up to 10kg. I see, it's weight-based then :) What's the procedure to have the items I purchase to be send by DHL? In the example format there's no option for the shipping. Thanks BTW.. Ch...
