Next I'll post visual wav graphs proving my filco pings.

Meucci

I've had my meucci for almost 20 years now. Still looks and works like they day it was new. However, the person using it has deferiorated significantly.

My keycaps come in today. They look awesome! Not worried about the height as i'll be replacing the entire top row

got mine today in Au, nice set and thanks so much for putting it together boilermaker



edit: and I don't know if you saw my comment before geekhack died, but the brown is OK

What do you mean by this? All my WASD keycaps height is consistent.

Do you mean that The SP-profile keycaps aren't the same? (A fn# row filco/WASH is taller than a Fn# row SP keycap). This is, unfortunately one of the drawbacks of SP. They also don't match with cherry.

some within the same row will raise higher than other, example, my H is lower than G, my backspace is higher than of the numbers

Try pushing them on harder.

Isn't Germany always the last to get shipments?

I guess they will show up next week. I am just too impatient seeing all those who already received theirs

See, these caps are perfect. I assume there are a lot of people on here who play pool.

I need to sell some keyboards to buy a pool cue. My old sneaky pete's butt is separating. (Door wide open for jokes there)
I also still need to get an Albino Bowler painting from McPhee before Ramirez dies and they become priceless.

Must be some pretty slow shipping in the windy city.

I almost want some just to take some pictures on our felt. Who will be the first to do so? :p

Really? I was told they were a cherry profile?

I'll trade you one of my billiards cap sets for your pool table.

SP's DCS is pretty close to Cherry for R1-3 (Esc-Num/QWE/ASD) but for ZXC/Modifiers, SP is much more angled than Cherry.

It would be funny if it wasn’t so true. :-/

I've had a few Meuccis and loved them all.

Yeah... I kinda wish I wouldn't have said anything.

Got mine a while ago, photo taken with shoe

Received mine yesterday in Aus, thanks mate, great looking set

Received mine the other day. They look great. Thanks i3, you're awesome!

Got mine but haven't had time to put them in the board. They came out really well and are some of favorite keys so far!

Received a letter from German customs. Suspecting it’s this one they’re keeping. Oh I hate those guys. :-/

What could possibly be bad about importing/receiving plastic keycaps? Those customs people can be pretty awful.

If they suspect them to be worth more than a certain amount, let's say €25, you need to pay tax.

I guess then i will receive a letter pretty soon aswell. Let me know how it worked out when you picked them up.

I just got mine today, and i didnt even get a bill from danish customs.
Pretty sweet cause those guys always want money. (They almost always nab anything remotely taxable.)

I ordered via bubblemailer and there was no problem with the German customs at all!

2mm hole drilled and part of an MX Black stem stuffed in!

Awesome!!!

Now if I could just get the chalk to stay put...
