Will the gold connectors make me type faster and also make me worthy of owning a mechanical keyboards since I'll be able to hit 100wpm?

Only 100WPM? Casual speed.

Completed all orders.
riot, tbc, junkimchi, m1_account - your orders were dropped off before cutoff time for same business day processing. tbc, you /may/ have a mailman come by on Saturday. Canada post has delivered a couple mails on Saturdays for whatever reason.

Blakehart - your order is currently being dropped off at the PO. It should be processed on Sunday (from what I've observed from previous orders)

Pictures coming up soon.

Sleeving coreless paracord is a PITA. Since 32/34 of my paracord colours have no innards, they don't come pre-stretched so every cable is _extremely_ snug. You were the first one to order paracord sleeves...and it took a really long time to thread the cord over the cables.

Figured out an easier method to thread paracord for longer cables, but the fitting is still really tight. Thumbs are pretty sore atm :p

Ok, here's a crazy thought... Would your paracord show any light through for those Light cables?  At least faintly in the dark?  My current fave is Neon Turquoise with Clear over it from your last sample photograph, but some of those lights underneath would be super neat (probably in green).

I'm doubtful, but there /may/ be a slight inside glow. I sold 5/6 light cables, with only 1 red left. I should be receiving 10x red/green/blue light cables this week though (already customs cleared in Canada :) )!

Would be cool if it did let light through.  At least plastic aqua over a green light cable with clear over that.  But paracord with clear over would be nicer.

Well, just tested my red light cable w/ Imperial Red paracord + Clear sleeve ontop and it did shine through, but it's very subtle. Green light + Neon Turquoise + Clear sleeve should shine through as well!  :)

That's great news :)  I think I should do green (when you have it) light cable + neon turquoise paracord + clear on top with gray shrink wrap in place of plastic housings (unless other interesting housings come in soon) :D  Thank you for all your photographs!

Oooo. Instant gratification at it's finest. That sounds much better than the 2-4 week wait mimic is currently having.

What do you think would look good with a white HHKB? :)

Well, I haven't filled out the papers with DHL, but I'm trying my best to negotiate for lower shipping rates.  :) All orders mailed at the PO before 5pm PST enter USA next day (10minutes away from Canada Post's main sorting centre :). So far all items have been delivered within 3-5 business days.

As for matching cable for a white HHKB, you can choose Pearly white Paracrod, Silver Gray Paracord, or Gray Plastic sleeve/Triple White Plastic sleeve, with gold plated connectors!  :)

Do the gold plated connectors come in right angle variants I know you had some "normal" 90deg ones earlier.

If you could also submit an order here instead of PMing me a custom order, it would help make the process smoother. Thanks in advance!
