Will the steel be prone to rusting?

I will seal all of the raw metal myself to prevent rusting. I will use LeakSeal Clear Spray.

Damn.  Well then I'm sold, can I order on Friday or is this ending really soon?

  Feel free to order now and pay me when you're ready so I can get it into production. The metal ones take several weeks.

Ordered black matte steel.
Will probably get more when I'm feeling richer. How long will this be going on for?

Feel free to paypal me a donation directly if you don't want a key but would still like to contribute to our donation. Or, you can also mail one to the address directly they list for registration as well.

Just an update on unpaid invoices, I have to make a new PayPal account and send out new invoices. PayPal once again is asking me for personal information I don't want to give them and won't let me use my account until I do. >.>

[taylordcraig]

I'm sorry to hear that. Would it help if I paid?
I should be getting my cheque today.

Just pay when you're able, before shipping 

[cherpalla]

Just a reminder that I will be ending production of these on October 7th. 

[taylordcraig]

Hey I have money now but I can't find my invoice. I got buried in my paypal and I can't find it anywhere.
If someone could let me know how I can pull up unpaid stuff or something that would be cool otherwise I guess I need a new invoice. xD

I have two outstanding invoices that are in production that need to be paid. Please keep in mind if you don't pay for these it comes out of my pocket, both for the caps and the donations.

Also, this is the last week to order!! Orders close on Tuesday!

[cmadrid]

I don't really have any money this paycheck, but if the invoices go unpaid, I'll cover one key in two weeks for you.

taxes. pp will probably find you and do the same again. iirc anything near 20k and paypal starts asking.

If that was the reason I would give them the info, it's definitely not though.

LOL No... it's a long story related to being linked to my mom because she used my personal information. A lot.

Any updates on this?

Any updates on this?

Got some info via skype, and there was a problem with the production apperantly and delayed the whole process.

[pas008]

would like a new update

[cherpalla]

Hi everyone, sorry for the delay in updates. I had emergency abdominal surgery followed with a nasty sinus infection that spread into my ENT and lungs. There is a new pending shipment date of December 4th for the replacement order. Fingers crossed and will let everyone know when they are at my home!

[fohat.digs]

emergency abdominal surgery followed with a nasty sinus infection that spread

Aarrrgghh!

I hope that everything is working itself out.

Don't worry about keyboards until you feel at least 80%-90% and maybe wait some more after that.

Best, Harry

any news here?

Why is it whenever people go silent when they have other people's money, the reason is always "I was in the hospital for $Something_Horrible. There's a delay!" I'm not saying there's funny business going on here, but it's ... a pattern.

There's a thread for that actually https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=63869.0

Also cherpalla hope things are going better for you.

Because that's kind of the only reason to go silent on here.  Other delays don't cause silence like being in a hospital does.  And then people notice this and think something's up whenever it happens.  But really we just forget about all the buys that go smoothly, and only remember the ones with issues.  I'm not accusing you of complaining or anything, I just think it's a (fairly) logical explanation.

I don't think there is a question imaginable that we don't have a thread for.

Her twitter does seem fairly active, though.  Still hoping for the best for those involved.

Hi everyone! Keycaps are here (and my order from Sprit, same day!)! Nothing is broken! I will be painting this week and next week. Anticipating getting everything out by mid-late January.

If anyone has questions about what has been going on in my personal life, I'm open to answering questionsi. I am going to be moving again in February amongst the chaos, so I will be doing my absolute best to get these out before then. I have to go out of town the first week of January for family stuff, but it should only be for a few days.

can only hope I'm making the right decision and things get better because of it. :/

Hi guys, just wanted to give you an update. I am in the process of painting the plastic keys, and I am hoping to start mailing them out before I move again in 2 weeks. The metal keycaps upon inspection had stems that had been printed improperly, so unfortunately I had to reorder them with a new design. I won't have them back before I move, but finishing those for rust prevention will not take long. Barring that this next set has a problem, too, we are looking at late February delivery for metals and early for plastics (possibly in January, I will TRY MY BEST). I will be mailing in order of the orders placed.

To a new start and the purchase of ACRYLIC materials.

Thank you for the update cherpalla and for your attention to detail. I'm sure that these keys will be worth the wait.
