How about Topre compatible Ti spacebars? At least for HHKB P2 and RF 87U/104U.
I'd jump on a topre spacebar.

That might bend even titanium.
THICK!
Gonna get me a THICK SB and sell my thin one!:rolleyes: But someone keep asking me about the extra thick version, so here it is.
I'm anal retentive... Sorry...
Oh Feng. It looks like time to choose which key-sets to dump for these babies.
I want them all for my MKC key-board. Please let us know what Type Fonts you'll be choosing to engrave with. Cherry would be superb but standard WYSE is acceptable.
These babies are going to be saved for 8) .
I want them all, Modifiers, Tab, Enter, Shifts, CapsLock, Backspace and a 7 inch Spacer. Thank Hammer for doing this.
But I want to make a Titanium RGB essentially AND I need a 7x Sandblasted spacebar :(
We need a 4th option, how else will I spend around $500 on Ti keys.
In the case of 1.5x mods will there be 1x keys to go with it?
Need all of it. Not just three! I want all titanium caps for one 84-key. Thanks!
As long as we're doing an interest check, why not an interest check for a full-mod or full set (84/86 or 87-key). There are a few of us who might drain our retirement funds for that. :P
Is Hammer able to create 1x caps? I mean...like JD says...full Ti board may interest a few.
I bet that sand blasting is considerably easier than polishing. Not to mention it looks the best.

QFT, sand blasted all the way.

I guess the thick version was particularly provided for you. :P
Anal retentive? What's that supposed to mean? :-X I only understand the first word which is ...
Anal retentiveness
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Not to be confused with constipation.
The term retentive (also anally retentive), commonly abbreviated to anal,[1] is used conversationally to describe a person who pays such attention to detail that the obsession becomes an annoyance to others, potentially to the detriment of the anal-retentive person. The term derives from Freudian psychoanalysis.
I would go as far as to drop the polished as a finish option if that means that would could get another 2 caps added (to make a full set). I really love my brushed spacebar and hardly ever use my shiney one since it's a pain in the butt to cleanThis, shiny is ****.
Because not many people will order shiny. Plus I will order over $600 of mods if it is a full set.does sandblast or brush match the scarface set you have?

Hammer and I have talked about this months ago and unfortunately it's not gonna work. Apparently it's not impossible to make Ti spacebar w/ Topre stems, but the thing is that metal spacebar would ruin your Topre keyboards. And not just spacebar, also all the other metal keycaps like R1, R2, R3, etc. I'm sure you've noticed that whenever you push down a Topre keycap, you would hear a clicking sound. There's a little plastic thing inside the Topre switch causing that clicking sound. Plastic keycaps are elastic, but metal ones are not. If you're trying to install a metal keycap on Topre keyboard, it would damage that plastic little thing.

After talking to Hammer, he said that maybe we can do these three: Spacebar, Atl/Ctrl set, and Left/Right Shift set. What do you guys think of it? We can leave the enter, backspace, etc. for the next round.

Sounds good to me! More keys = better
It's funny that you have time to respond to this thread, but not your other threads where people are still missing items.

Uhmmmm, you're more than likely thinking of sherry who's been AKF for a while
Feng has always been good about updating people and filling orders

We've been waiting over three months for our pullers :p

Why aren't more people excited by this?!

Because it isn't Topre
Brotoprecaps!
Gotta discover a way for titanium topre.....glue on plastic stems to a titanium shell?
Can we not just keep them blank? Nice and simple :)I was about to keep them blank, but then I thought there must be some people really loving the printed ones.
It's funny that you have time to respond to this thread, but not your other threads where people are still missing items.I have too many things to handle at this time, but I'll try my best to take care of each group buy.
Sounds like a good idea to me, when will this be likely to happen?If I have enough time, I will launch the group buy this week. If not, then next week after my Finals.
I hope payment isn't required for this until June/July. Need to save up unless I get lots of cash gifts at the wedding :pNo need to worry about it, I'm sure you'll have time to save up. :) I'll be taking orders for one and half month. If it starts on May 1st, then I'll stop taking orders on June 15th. As usual, first batch of production will start first for those who have placed an order.
What are the odds of something like this happening for Topre? Is there simply no tooling for such a thing?
We're all stuck with ABS(yuck) spacebars.
Ah, I missed that. So... the design depends on the keycap material having some give for the retention mechanism to not completely wear out, makes sense. Guess I'll keep trolling around waiting for a Topre PBT spacebar (how is it possible that these don't exist?).What are the odds of something like this happening for Topre?

None, metal doesn't work with topre. feng answered this on the first page I think
ArialHelvetica Rounded seems nice. If you can't get Futura Italic.
There're two types of thickness for the spacebar: 1.0 mm and 1.5 mm. The spacebars from last group buy are all 1.0 mm and I would say they're already pretty heavy (about 15g for 6.25x 3-stems, 18g for 6.25x 6-stems). Thick plastic keycaps are awesome, but thick metal keycaps? I don't really think so. :rolleyes: But someone keep asking me about the extra thick version, so here it is.
The approximate price is for blank keycaps only. The engraving service charges $5 for each keycap. We have two different fonts for you. We haven't decided on which two we're going to provide yet. But most likely Cherry font would be one of the choices.

FYI - Thinner means more work because you have to remove more material.
I changed my SB switch from a red to a black for my thin titanium SB, so I *may* have to change to a grey 37 for a thick one.
The amount of customization would mean a LOT of molds if they were cast...
