I'll be leaving the sale open until Christmas Day or until they all sell out, which ever is first. We haven't been seeing too much excitement over the Christmas ones, so there very well may be plenty available for awhile (but I could be wrong so won't make any promises!)

I promise we are trying to get together enough to get sales lined up far enough before a holiday to allow for over-seas shipping times. This whole noob thing is a major learning curve!!

In other news, there are still keycaps available in the sale, I will leave the form open until they are either all sold or until Christmas Day (granted they probably won't arrive by Christmas if you wait that long to order one  :cool: ).  Any not sold will go on the shelf until next Christmas, so grab 'em now if you want 'em  ;D

Thank you so much everyone!!!

How are we able to wash these caps? my Jagu is getting a little bit of dirt on it's face and I don't want to cause any damage.

Hey, sorry, missed this last night! My top choice for washing it would be an ultrasonic cleaner with water and a few drops of dish soap. If you aren't familiar with the ultrasonics, they are cheap and amazing for cleaning stuff. Otherwise some rubbing alcohol on a q-tip should be fine as well, I use it on many of our keycaps in the final clean up stages and it does fine on them.

Just got my first ever cap from you. Red sparkle!
I really like it. Nice thickness especially at the top of the cap.

Very cool!

How thick/tall are these things relative to the regular keycaps?

And the attorney general of New York knew that Trump's property values were inflated because when it came time to pay taxes, Trump undervalued the very same properties.

Thank you so much for the awesome feedback! Here are some more pics showing some other views and of them on a keyboard to show size and clearances a bit better (imagur link at end): Some of the critters, like the upper left in the main pic (Haven't named this round yet) won't play nice next to other artisans, he'll have to be a loner, but does fine next to other regular keys. We have lots of Jagu's (the purple one) coming back in this round, single color and multi-colors! Our goal is to get everyone hooked up with the keycaps they want, & not make these super rare, except for possibly a few select designs over time. We are aiming for the middle of the month for the sale, we'll narrow it down and post info as we know better, it will depend on weather and glass orders as to how quickly we can finish up production!

Gloyz! was the reason I got a GH account for the first sale, while these new designs are good from a technical perspective, they are not for me. I do see a Jagu there though, that's my fave!

Coming soon also!! We actually have some alps and topre testers I'm working on getting sent out for people to test and make sure they fit right on keyboards (I have an alps switch to test on, but not a topre). If all goes well with the testers then we will be getting all the designs worked up in those stems, then as soon as we get the BS logistics worked out they will be in the mix as well.

The single color (think you mean the Royales ?- The ones with the balls, but the basketweaves will be the same) will be $15, mullticolor will be $25

Yes, we will be trying to post pics every day before then, so you can see better details in them!


& Thank you so much everyone! I'll be trying to post more pics every day before the sale, and I'll get the rules posted ahead of time since we seem to run our sales a bit different than everyone else. I'll keep this thread updated and get our website updated with all the info as soon as I get it all written up, but it should run pretty similar to our last sale, except with lots more keycaps (Looks like 130-150 in this sale).
