I think I'll try. I like the browns feel, but regarding the noise, the lesser the better. If the O-rings don't change the feel, I'd like to try.
Just bought some at wasdkleyboards.

Wooooo packing!

Are you aware of the fact that O-rings and SignaturePlastic's DCS family isn't the best combination? At least the F-row and number-row caps have a mounting stem that is too long for a single O-ring to have any effect: the ring won't even touch the switch housing. I don't know about the other rows.
BTW, the DSA family works with O-rings. We have to see about the SA family.

Is it something you can fix with a dremel? Maybe put two o-rings?

Soooo excited!

Sorry, I had forgotten to add you to the list. It is already packed and will ship today or tomorrow.

Wow that sounds nice!!!

Is it possible to pm me the package tracking number?

I'm waiting for my #0195.

35.4% done!

Waiting for the first pics - I imagine some folks will receive the keycaps this week?

The O-rings arrived from the US today. Look like they will do the job well. Just waiting on my caps, ahem, wink, wink.

Mine arrived at the forwarder as well, but did you ignore Kurrk's message above, saying that they don't play well with the profile of our keys?

I had already ordered them and they do appear to work on my Filco with the Round3 retro caps.

So when does round 5 start?

When Hyper is over ....


I've got a really big problem:
There will be leftover keys, but I don't always know which they will be.

Each DUMMY kit contains 7.64525993883792048929 key caps. Should I cut some of these?

To be serious: What should I send as DUMMY kits, just anything I find out that is a leftover key cap which is not part of any real kit, or should I ask everybody what they want?

If I ask, I've got to tell you what is left over right now.



All I know for now is that there are too many LEFT, RIGHT, UP, DOWN keys in the SPH style and a lot of leftovers from language kits, which will never form a complete laguage kit anymore.

I can also use the white and black on yellow diamond keys.

I will get my order in first. Send me as much SPH stuff as possible and I guess try and send sueful combinations of keys. I think I ordered 10 x Dummy so that is quite a few caps.

I make it easy for you. I take all the SPH leftovers. Period

I think you can never have too many LEFT, RIGHT, UP, DOWN keys because there are always things out there that you want to make go LEFT, RIGHT, UP, DOWN.

I don't know. Maybe just try to make the leftover kit orders as useful as possible (i.e. one of each arrow key, not 4 left arrow keys) and after we receive them we can trade among ourselves. Create a "Round 4 leftover kit keys For-Trade" thread...

OK, thanks!

Dibs on any blanks for round3! Order #0647 !! Seriously thou, can you not put in caps that are from the same style with orders? Or at least try to. For instance i wouldnt mind 1.5x blank round3 (if it exists) as i got a round3 order.

Do they fit on hjkl? That'd be useful for VIM users...

If there are alternative versions of modifier keys like a Control for Caps Lock position, or stepped Caps Lock/Control, or diamond (ball,square..) modifiers... I'd buy in SPH and ROUND3...

I could use anything from a danish language set, although I didn't buy a dummy kit (I had no idea what it was) but would it be possible to buy those extras?

I got into R4 through buying someone partially out, but I am kinda sad that the SPH/Terminal kit doesn't have a Scroll Lock keycap. That is one part of SPH/Function I would love to have; ideally an entire Function set if possible as a leftover...

I would be happy if there were some 1.5u and 1u mods in my dummy kits, either SPH or Noir.
If not, well, just send something

41.1% UP UP

My order was mostly sph, but I think dummy sets should be none repeated caps across all the sets, best way to see what else was made? Although all sph would be more useful to me I guess.

Surely the numbering is not continuous, if at around 200 you're in 40% and my order is 709!

I'm number 736 and very curious when all those orders will be packed and shipped. Must be a huge operation!
I'm not in a hurry though since I don't have my boards for it yet so it doesn't really matter to me ^^ I think 7bit will have severe keycap sorting withdrawal symptoms when everything's done :p

Oh hai Paranoid! My message here a few days ago

"Just because the keys are so close to me, I found out about custom usb cables ... is it always like this? Never satistied "

It is 45.2% of all key caps no matter how large they are.

I try to get over 60% packed today.

BTW, only 22.5% of all packages are packed (93 of 413).


The earlier orders contain more keys than the later ones.

I've decided to pack everything (will take me until this weekend) and then ship. The advantage is I know what can be used for the dummy kits.
