Title: 6x spacebars
Post by: legodt on Sat, 30 November 2013, 02:46:50

Where can I buy 6x spacebars online? Every retailer I checked seems to only carry 6.25x or 6.5x spacebars.

AFAIK, there are no third-party 6× space bars with centred stem available online.

7bit ordered 6× space bars from Signature Plastics in his  Doubleshot Replacements Round 4 (http://deskthority.net/wiki/Doubleshot_Replacements_Round_4) group buy. These, however, fit only some Cherry G80-series keyboards (and some very few DIY keyboards) because of the position of the key stem.
If you got one of these and wanted to use them on a keyboard with centred stem, then you would have to cut off the existing stem and glue in another one in the centre.
