I'd say early-mid next week. i3oiler is very prompt at getting them shipped.

Clear/colored the next big thing? I would definitely be into a complete clear/color doubleshot set.

Techkeys does ship very quickly.  I was considering adding a keycap puller to my order, but I received my shipped email before I made my mind up.

Got mine in the mail today!!!  Yes I know my desk is a mess, but I'm limited on time today and as such had a choice, post pics or clean desk..... you're welcome.

On a side note.  I'm not sure if I like them, but that may just be the color contrast of the rest of the keys.  I'll bring them to work and put them on my blue keyboard.

Received mine yesterday. My niece said they looked like someone chewed on a raspberry now-and-later and put them in an ice tray. Kids these days ... lol

Just received mine. It seems the only key that not wanting to go on is the enter key. The white inserts for the stabilizers (?) fall out of it.
Title: Re: GH Techkeys January Pack
Post by: SmallFry on Wed, 16 January 2013, 18:31:19
Put a piece of tape under it before you insert the white part. :)

Post by: CPTBadAss on Wed, 16 January 2013, 18:35:52
Put a piece of tape under it before you insert the white part. :)

Another trick is if you cut out a little square from a plastic bag and placed it over the whole before inserting the stabilizer. Found this trick in an old post on GH. And it's always nice to have options. Plastic bag trick worked for me ^_^

Basically anything will work:) tape is nice since you can put the non sticky side towards the top of the keycap and then the tape only sticks to the stem to pull the tape out when you're done. :)

Tape trick works great. I had to use it for all my 2nd generation zinc caps from feng and the red aluminum spacebar(not the silver oddly enough). I actually needed to use two layers of green painters tape. They were pretty loose. First run were too tight, second run were too loose. If I've learned anything from Goldilocks the third run should be juuuust right.
