Other stuff we need to carry
« on: Fri, 31 January 2014, 11:09:24 »
The lubricant got me thinking... Are there are any other items you're surprised we've never had in stock?

(things that we can realistically get)

We're always striving to be a one-stop-shop.

It would be cool to see some sort of foam liner or o-rings. Seems like people are interested in those things lately.

You need plates for those Phantom PCBs! :D

If you know of a place to have them laser cut from either stainless steel or aluminum, I can help with the drawing files.


Also, the Pro Micro controller boards are becoming popular for cheap ATmega-based keyboard controllers, but shipping from China takes sooooo loooong.

So does that mean no one ever contacts you about participating in group buys?

What you guys need is some esc keys with your logo on it :eek:

We bought some of these a while back from a GH group buy.  I'm guessing they still haven't come in yet.  I need to check with Josh on this.

Exactly....plates.  Possibly an all in one phantom package (thru hole diodes, etc.).

- PHANSI 125 plates (Universal TKL?)
- 62g, 65g, 67g springs
- Krytox lube
- Switch stickers

I'm looking to do an ergo-clear swap on my Filco soon and if you guys had the above items to go with the Cherry clears you would truly be a one-stop-shop for everything.

Realforce EK45 (Silenced)  |  Realforce 87UW (45g)  |  Realforce 87UWS (Variable)
Filco MJ2 TKL (Cherry Clears)  |  Phantom 87 (78g Gateron Clears)  |  Phantom 86 (67g Zealios)

It was from me, and they will be shipped around mid-feb once I am back from vacation.

Lubricant is some pretty niche mod even within this community, and it can be found anywhere.

Top priority should be placed on pressuring ZF for the widest variety of MX switches possible. No other online store offers all loose MX switches.

Oh! More 60% cases please! I love the Tex ones but not everyone agrees with lower profile. I might have to scavenge for another because I'm getting high profile keys and I'm not sure the look will be a satisfactory. :/
