This might be off-topic, but these keycaps seem rather tight for the Clear keys on my ErgoDox. I've already ripped out a couple of stems from while trying to pull off the keycap. Luckily, I was able to keep track of the spring, and re-assemble the key.

Any recommendations on oil/grease/compound that I should apply (after carefully pulling off all the keycaps again)?

that happens a lot with clears as they have an extra little bump, i find sorta wiggling the cap as im removing it helps

Yeah, that's pretty much what I've been doing after the first couple that I ripped out. If that's all that's needed, I'll just continue with the wiggling.

Thanks.

Alright Penumbra scoops groupbuy, lets start one up. Otherwise I'll have this long enough to mail it to someone else.

I very heavily depend on f & j being different as well. I'd be in for a scoop groupbuy haha.

Once I get my set, I'll try them out and see if I can adjust but I have a bad feeling that I'll be putting mine on the marketplace =(

to be fair

i was unaware of this, the set was meant to come with scoops, all the mockups that were sent indicated scoops in the same way we always would, and in the same way it was indicated for the numpad

so no idea how one could happen and not the other

ill try find out what the deal is

Hopefully it was an oversight on SP's part and they'll remedy the situation. However, I have no issues doing a separate GB for them if necessary. It would appear that others are of the same opinion.

The 5 on the numberpad does have a deeper scoop, or rather: there's an option for both.

For those of us that got cables where they haven't shipped yet, maybe delay shipping a bit longer. I wouldn't mind if it means much less hassle and cost on your end.

good deal on the SCOOPS!

bunny-- question,

any chance of possibly getting any caps to fit the profile of an 1800 at the PRINT, SCROLL and PAUSE...........? even blank would be ok?

If not really.........don't sweat it as my ducky with clears is loving it's new shoes

i am very happy and maybe next time we can try to get the additional caps on that particular GB

Here's Penumbra on my Leopold FC660M. I had to modify the spacebar to fit the leopold stabilizer positions and the right shift is obviously from the numpad keycaps (and has a slight gap around it, though not the deal breaker visually that I feared it would be).

Do you have any picture of the spacebar mod? I tried doing it once and I just ruined a spacebar.

Yep. Here you go: Full Album

Dremel, superglue and some sacrificial keycaps is all you need. Unless you are some sort of dremel wizard you'll destroy the two stems in the spacebar that overlap the location of the new keycaps, so the sacrificial keycaps will be used just for the stems. I know some people use white-tack or similar gummy/sticky material instead of modding the spacebar like this. YMMV.

There is some crazing on the blue spacebar from, if i remember correctly, superglue accelerant (just don't use it or test in a small spot first). It's not visible from the top in this case, so it's a non issue.

I got mine today.

OMG I have never laid eyes on a more beautiful set of keycaps. These things are gorgeous. I have been so excited for these for months and they are every bit as good as I was hoping. Super happy right now.

Still getting used to the profile. I am switching from IMSTO Cherry PBT, so I can't really think of a bigger transition than that. It will take a moment to get used to, but I will manage.

I don't think it is possible to o-ring these caps (just looking at them anyway), so that is probably going to be the hardest thing for me to get used to.

Pictures don't do this set justice, but here you go anyway...

It's finally hereererereererereerererer~~~~~ and I LOVE IT!!! It looks, feels, and sounds so damn goooooooooooooood ~<3

Today, it is raining cats and dogs outside with thunderstorms so my pictures are kind of dark. I'll definitely take some more photos when the sun is back up

I have to say the wait was worth it! Only thing I'm kind of curious about now is standard SA profile. The alphabet letter rows feel slightly tall compared to the rows above and below it, and I feel like I probably would've preferred the lower and more dish shape of the standard SA profile, but this still feels absolutely amazing!

Thank you everyone who worked on this. I love it, and I love you guys ~<3
