That.... is beautiful. 

I just got my 4 in, and they are amazing.  I just need to figure out what to do with them!

Hello! I have two quick questions:

1. Are these the hybrid topre/mx stems that are circular which fit both switches?
2. Will there be another group buy for these?

Yo,

1. These are designed for MX. They will 'fit' into a topre stem, however they wont really function properly, although I do belive you can jury-rig it to function with bluetac or something silly like that.

2. Maybe however I have a significant pickle: I can get a simmilar price again, although the quality wont be as high as I want it to be, or I could raise the price a bit and have a significantly better cap quality wise.

If there is anything else let me know :)

Hmm unfortunate, looked like it was 100% the hybrid stems. Oh well haha, I doubt they would have sounded good on my HHKB anyway.

And hmmm, why make them more expensive? The pics people have shown seem to look great and people satisfied? I think if you make them any more expensive than $5 each, it becomes prohitively expensive for us trying to assemble 60% boards/plancks/ergos out of them and not just buying only a few novelties. In fact, I'm not sure how outlandish this sounds to most people, but I would most certainly be in for a 60% blanck keycap set in all metal. Whether you do it or someone else, seems like something that is extremely exotic and could get a nice following :)

Arrived over the weekend.
Ready to hit the town.

Yours doesn't have the line at the bottom of the cap?  3 of mine have a line 3/4 down the cap that goes all the way around.  I actually thought it was part of the design.  Anyone else have that?

Hey Dom, PM'd ya.

It turns out some of the caps had that issue and I didn't catch it what so ever.  :'(

Mine have the lines, maybe about 90% of them. I thought they are part of machining process, like injecting spots with plastic keycaps.

Yeah alot of them came out like that unfortunately. It was to do with the anodising process it seems. If anyone does have complaints about them I still have some leftover that don't have any marks on them if you would like to swap them out.  :-*

I know see two comments from other folks in the Bay Area having received theirs... I'm getting worried now. That wasn't a cheap order.

 :eek: I hope it gets there soon! It might be a bit longer for you though, everyone else got it in like small satchels whereas your order was in a decent sized box.

Well, none yet, but theoretically 50. Probably going to live on an ortholinear, but the other option to explore is to use them as alphas.

Problem solved.

I ran in to my postal worker on the way home, she flagged me down and handed it to me. I can't really understand her very well, but something about they switched her route for a couple days, and I imagine something about confusion about packages. (She's great, I just usually have no idea what she's talking about.)

Anyway, got 'em. On a scale of 1 to Mr. T, They're almost Mr. T. Pics later.

I just received mine, all 4 have the line you are talking about. A bright line roughly 4/5 down the cap. I don't understand why.

Yeah mine have the lines near the bottom too but I don't mind. For this price point, I'm perfectly okay with this.
I think it's important for the keyboard community to have affordable artisan keycaps; its the best way for us to grow and increase the diversity of offerings.
