Order 0600 finally arrived (Greek postal service is shit D:), thanks 7bit!

Those should actually do (I had them bookmarked from a while ago, one of the sizes should be really similar to the pin of a Cherry MX switch)

thesupergeek42 over on /r/mk wanted to try this out and had ordered a couple of sizes for tests, dunno if he was successful though :/

Hey 7bit, any update 0600? (I don't think I missed it, sorry if I did)
Thanks a bunch!

I'm surprised there are no Buckling Spring clones (or similar switches) out there, I only know of the Ya Sheng ones.

As for the actuation point, it should be ralatively simple to make it variable, no?
I mean, by measuring the electrical charge due to capacitance for many distances you should be ...

I intend to use Mrinterface's MX/Alps adapters for caps (and possibly an MX/MX one to achieve the same keycap height)

As for the 3rd dimensions, as Daniel pointed out, this can be arranged using the pin sockets.

Basically, my idea for hot swapping is not sockets that are basically flat (like the ...

Wow, thanks for the links jacobulous, I never stumbled upon this, or any custom where the same plate was used for MX and Matias switches (I have seen the universal PCB & plate mounting holes image though)!

I thought of the mounting hole issue for ALPS but I guess it's something I will have to try ...

Hello everyone.

I'm quite a noob and I've never even soldered anything, let alone built a custom board but lately I've been thinking of designing my own board.

I've got a list of features and a layout in my mind (and some pen and paper stuff - quite a lot actually :P) and one of those features is ...

Well, back to chasing boards

Yes makes sense, I feel really stupid now, closing this

Guess I got really excited and there were 2 hours left so that pumped me up some more

Well you end up with 303 euros for 4 boards, so ~76euros/board (with shipping) == ~102 dollars/board

Hello everyone, today I was browsing japanese Yahoo auctions for some Topre keyboards and I found this auction for 4 new REALFORCE 104UG HiPro YK2100 , currently ending in just 2 hours.

The price is 24,800yen + 8% taxes = 26784yen + 580yen for shipping in Japan + 2942.72yen service fee for jauce ...

So word on the street says that this will be released around Autumn

Edit: Yes I know how vague this is

Haha I was actually just about to PM 002 pretty much asking how he got it too, just checked the thread before sending it on the off chance someone had posted today

002, if they released it at about 65USD (as mentioned by a couple of Chinese reviewers) do you think it would be worth the price?

Order just arrived!
Thanks 7bit

Greens are awesome, as expected 8D

Yeah, I think Corsair has exclusive access to the switches for some months (perhaps even a year?)

ehm..7bit seems still busy..
I'll wait for the shipping cost info :)
Shipping costs 43 EUR up to 5kg and 60 EUR up to 10kg.


I see, it's weight-based then :)
What's the procedure to have the items I purchase to be send by DHL?
In the example format there's no option for the shipping.
Thanks ...

7bit: what about #0600?

Sorry for being one of "those guys" but what about 0600?

What about #0600?
