Just a quick note (perhaps redundant), but in the PM inbox you can sort messages by author, yet in the sent folder you can't (sort by adressee).. and seeing there's no search as far as I've found, that makes it pretty nasty to find that one message you want!

Damn it's really starting to look great (and near completion)!

For anyone jumping in, the wickedawesome case prototype pics are here and here .

Personally I think the white case looks better than when painted black.
If I somehow come across a wad of money/steady income in the near future, I'll be ...

(just got my first kid).
Oh baby!! pun intended
Congrats, looks like I checked back in just in time. ;)


On the latest mod, from a quick look it seems as indeed the tenkey area is safe to lop off, yet I'd advise actual tracing in a drawing program just to make sure; and my safest bet would be to ...

Sad to say, I bailed. Five minutes before the hammer.
... those caps will be missed. The cash will be welcomed back with some tender loving though.

off, again.

Awesome Limmy to the rescue! Appreciated.

nvm the siig, somehow it never dawned on me that they could still be producing new stuff.
yes, somehow I had that the unbelievable (hence the ): minitouch in the store..

in that case:
mFPCm

though I'd definitely love people going 'what is the fuk', makes everyone seem illitterate(sp xD) ^^

take it!

I loved the idea behind f.lux, but disliked the implementation (when I tried it for a week or so quite a while ago)... perhaps that's just my pc being shoddy, but the 'steps' I could visibly see it take to adjust really annoyed me; plus the recouloring that doesn't mesh with 'how it should look ...

Ica with the win.

Ah, I thought it was the naildamage someone inflicted on the right CTRL (and Enter) caps (see third pic).
And I do get why they put that one in caps, it's the only contraction. (CPTN obvious takes his leave)

Not having a Model F incoming any time soon, but I'm curious: you seem set on using the standard typewriter-stagger, instead of a matrix or symmetrical stagger.. Is it that you don't like those, or that it would probably require buying more keycaps, or that it would be 'harder to market', or?

Great ...

then again, quickfire rapid for $80.88 doesn't sound like a bad deal when you can either just pick it up on the way home or have it delivered (next day?) quickly..

*edit: ^To me, from the other side of the pond. Expecting to see stores here charge E80 makes $80 sound good, and $60 real nice.

it's against the rules to post PMs without prior approval I'd say!
Not sure I agree on that; I mean yes there's confidentiality that is assumed when utilizing the private messaging service, but some things get outed in PM's that are imho outrageous enough to warrant publicity, things like overly ...

I'd bet it'd tell you exactly how hot molten plastic feels when swooshed around in your ear canals...

How awesome, 'mini-jack' plugs for quick-swap soldering tips!

Anyone, I'm looking for a second sph/kbdrunner cap, and was hoping someone ordered a bunch too many and was willing to let one go.
If you do, please pm me; thanks in advance!

In this case it would indeed, seeing how the trace does work intermittently.
(wouldn't really be needed, but I'm thinking leaving it intact might increase bounce slightly; basically just a feeling though)

Needs matrix layout and probably the A/B buttons removed from the case (they must be BIGGER); having all buttons visualised through coloured keycaps......

I find that white is better for forums because logically if the forum is black it is hard to read at night
*bites* Actually, logically , seeing how night is pretty much black, a white background is quite jarring, while a black background fades into the surroundings, allowing the white text to be ...

<huge quote> Razer BlackWidow Ultimate Stealth isn't made for ISO 105 key, it is only ANSI.
Why indeed, "The Keyboard Oracle has decided: No keyboard exists with the exact specificiations - you may like the Razer BlackWidow Ultimate Stealth Edition or the Qpad MK-80 for ISO layout."
Sadly ...

Same here
Was only continuing the desk-top thing.

These are factory caps or some diy paintjob? Asking since I see some wicked structure (rough like white walls) on some caps..
"Rough like white walls", what? What does that even mean? lol... wicked structure on some caps... that's just the actual structure of the caps from ek, accentuated by ...

more like Geekgirl o' Connor!

Ah, thanks, very familiar with that one myself; haven't tried it for keyboard stuff though, and not convinced that designing simple keyboard layouts is the application for it, but:
Shapeways compatible through a few hoops.

Oh but it is. Mentally!

"it was just flame bait."
I really don't think it was, nor should be regarded as such; there is quite a bit of geekhate going around, it seems..

But I do agree on altavista.

Updated OP for all TLDR folk (actually since thread's a mess anyhow)!

Although I do miss the costar stabilizers.
You know, there is a (destructive) fix for those cherry corp stabilizers :) http://deskthority.net/resources/image/3608 from http://deskthority.net/workshop-f7/cherry-corp-stabilizers-gimme-back-my-clack-ok-whaaat-t2780.html long ass read, for such a ...
