I could not be happier with how it was handled by GMK and Originative.robotmaxtron wrote: ↑GMK Skeletor, such a great color set, GB could not have been handled smoother, very reasonably priced.

Although Nubs used the term "neon green" when he discovered the switch :p . Of course, you can have the wiki redirect "SKCM Green" to whatever we choose to rename...

Yeah they said it would be down for the weekend, which doesn't make any sense if the attack is over... Seriously? I don't understand what they're trying to accomplish with that at all... Guess there's some similar logic involved as in "making a statement about hacking" by doing a denial of service ...

Such a cute little board. The strange legend locations look to be the same as on the MCRW, too: http://deskthority.net/w/images/a/ad/Topre_MCRW-5000_--_Keyboard_and_Numpad.jpg Were there any stoppers underneath any of the caps? I'm not sure what you mean by stoppers. It didn't have anything like an...

I saw someone else posted about it, but I thought I'd crosspost it here from Geekhack just to share it as well.

They have a pretty significant bump pretty much right at the beginning, almost like an MX Clear in the size of the bump. The tactile bump is really smooth, but they're not as smooth after that. Not bad, but not super smooth feeling like linear Green Alps. The color is actually almost closer to neon ...

Xerox with Tactile Green Alps
This is a first for me. I bought the keyboard on the off chance that it might be Brown Alps, but was surprised when I saw green sliders. At first I was disappointed, then looked again and noticed the lack of an LED cutout. I also noticed the word Alps on it, which was odd. Then, when pressing it, I ...

Glad to see that the review might be able to help expand the knowledge about the switch and family some. And yes, I'm absolutely positive on that one Daniel. I just opened one up again to double check that I remembered correctly. The two contacts are touching when the slider is in its home position....

Black Cherry MY Review
There's always a lot of trash talk about Cherry MY switches, but no one really seems to go into why they're so bad, what it is about the design that makes them less pleasant to type on. So for my review, I'm going to have some discussion on Black MY switches. Keep in mind that Black MY switches pred...

Alps never seem to get the love they deserve...outside of Akimbo that is.

Oh this looks epic! For your next party trick, you should try it with red cedar and clearcoat it to bring out that red shine (WITH KNOTS) ! I was actually looking at some cedar, but I'm not sure I could work with it. The smell is rather strong and causes me to start sneezing a ton sometimes. Random...

And updated pics of the case in action. I keep forgetting to buy chalk or else the case would be finished by now. All I have left to do is to line it with black or red suede leather. The brass standoffs have all been epoxied in place, the USB cable cutout has been done, and the case has been finishe...

It's always nice to see DIY cases! I take it you used a jigsaw to make a donut and glued it to a base? Seems an order of magnitude less difficult than routing a bowl. By lining it, is it for dampening? What do you think about construction using joinery (versus routing/carving less pieces)? Is it a ...

With the sizes of orders this has been getting, we only have 4-5 more orders until we hit the lowest price point. Right now we're at ~370 orders and I haven't counted the caps I'm going to order in that yet. I remember dismissing, and then pining for, those dinky little 3.5" floppies that weren't ev...

Cross posted from Geekhack This is a non-profit group buy for Qwerkeys UV printed key caps.
