Updates on die cast tooling
Due to the skyrocketing price of raw materials in recent years, in 2021 the project switched over to die casting instead of CNC milling each of the compact cases, despite the significant cost of the new tooling. Now both case types (compact and classic style) are die ...

Looks great — what’s up with that neat stubby cable though?


It’s a short USB C extension cable; I got the idea from earlier in the thread :)

Damn, just got my B stock ANSI+HHKB.



If this is B stock, I can't wait to get my hands on A stock. Fantastic.

I have this on ebay right now, has two non-working keys on the bottom right (ctrl and context key)
If you're interested lemme know


Oof, that's painful on the two non-working keys. I'm mostly interested ...

Looking to get a black 86u. If you have one that you'd be interested in letting go of we can work out a deal

And mounted I love these caps, worth the wait I think. I also noticed my cat contributed a nice hair on the side of the G key too, woops.

Woohoo, 90% of my keys showed up Now just waiting for some tiny left over ones (SHIFT175/GREY I'm looking at you). Tonight I'll actually get the put them on a board!

Released a HONEYB/ALPHA/E/BLACK back into the wild if anyone is looking for one!

Woohoo; getting excited now!

Making me super excited for my order!

Once the first payment is registered the amount owed should go down by that amount. I've had one where I pay like $10 dollars, order $50 more, get an invoice for $60, then later another invoice later for $50 because the $10 got registered as paid. I suppose I could also just go ahead and pay the $50 ...

Dang, was hoping I'd be able to get my little shift thrown into my package without waiting, oh well :) Waited this long, can wait longer.

I'm of the opinion at this point in the game to order what you want whenever it's in stock and not wait. Sort out the payments later since what you want/need ...

Does anyone have any experience with adding stuff after your order is packed? Mine is packed but not shipped yet and I've added a few more things and have paid; was wondering if that stuff will come later or possibly get packed into my unshipped order? I've PMed 7bit but no response yet so I figured ...

I spy HONEYB/NUMPAD/BLACK added to the R6 leftovers wiki; I recall some folks interested in this?

HONEYB/SHIFT175/GREY |SHIFT (row 4, 1.75u) | 5.00| 1| 1| 5.00

Woohoo! White and grey (with some red accents like Return and Escape) HHKB layout finally complete.

If anyone has a spare 1.75 grey shift I’d also sell my firstborn for it Alternately I’ll have a decent amount of unused caps when mine arrive so maybe we can work out a trade

nice! were you on 7bit's most recent order number list?

Nope, wasn't listed on the last list

As an aside, I'm still looking for a HONEYB/SHIFT175/GREY so if anyone has a spare I'd love to either buy it or trade some caps for it

Ooo, my order has moved to packed, exciting!

All I want for my birthday is a HONEYG/SHIFT175/GREY

Every day looking for that elusive HONEYB/SHIFT175/GREY...

I do spy a lone HONEYG/F1TOF12/GREY Someone might be interested in that!

Got the symbolic arrows in my invoice now, all that's left is a 625 gray spacebar and red return :o the spacebar is still listed in the wiki but wasn't added to my order :(
Relax, there are still some extra space bars held back for special customers.
;-)

How do I become a special customer for a ...

Dang, do I lose hope now of more grey extras? Really looking for a SHIFT175!

Is there a difference between HONEYB/ALPHA/WHITE and HONEYB/ALPHA/E/WHITE other than the price? I looked at the pictures on the wiki and couldn't see a difference but I just wanted to check! Thanks

Looking forward to this; hoping to get in on some Hadditionals with my HHKB delete and other keys

If anyone has some extra:

HONEYB/CONTROL175/GREY
HONEYB/RETURN225/RED
HONEYB/ESCAPE/RED

extras that they don't need and are willing to let go of I'd be eternally grateful!

I get the distinct feeling there is a lot more history behind all this than we're privvy to. Nobody is throwing anyone under the bus who didn't step in front of it first, and so on. We get only a tiny glimpse into a complicated mess, and nobody here has any idea what it's been like for either 7bit ...

I've been all paid up since May and have received invoices to that effect until this morning when I received one saying I owe another $74.97? I'm confused, I haven't added anything since the beginning of May and that got paid and reported by Mashby a while ago.

You can PM 7bit about the order probably! He got back to me pretty quick a week ago when I PMed him.
