Awesome thanks for the update! We should run a poll after all orders are sent to see what we should name these bad boys

I'll definitely throw a poll up somewhere once I wrap this up.

Really bad pictures from my parents before they sent the switches.

...but little did everyone know that the tragic Great Package Fire of 2016 would happen later that day.

Seriously though, I'm exited!

I imagine for a lot of people, these switches are just going to be organ donors. :P

You clearly have the beverages covered.  Really looking forward to playing with these. Looks like a lot of new switch options soon...

Does a standard switch opener like the one from mechanicalkeyboards.com work on them?

I'm not sure.  They're not openable from the top, and the bottom is styled like the outemu switches

I'm the only one (that I know of) with the switches.  I'll try to put something together this weekend, but no promises.

No photos right now, but I'm about a 3rd through packing.  I'm hoping to finish tonight or tomorrow morning and have labels printing tomorrow night.  Then I just need to drop them off at the post office.

Hey guys, school work took priority.  I think I've gotten most of it done, so I can start printing labels for what I have sorted tomorrow, and continue sorting from there.

Finished sorting, didn't get labels printing yet. I'm going to hunker down and get it all done on Sunday, and out Monday.

Don't feel bad. I've been forgetting to take Grandma her heart meds for almost two.

I got mine today (I am actually surprised they made it through customs and to Alabama as fast as they did, they were shipped on the 18th and I got them today on the 22nd). They are surprisingly deep sounding! I bought a bunch of aristotles from Zeal that I had planned on using to make Zealiostotles for my VE.A (right now I am waiting on the transparent stabs and then I will build it) but now I just have to stem swap some of these to see if they sound better to me!

fosens sound pretty nice in mx housing (better than they normally do imo) but more interestingly, swapping clear stems into fosens gives a better tactile bump

someone else try it and verify my claim

Got my 100 and immediately broke a housing trying to get the stem out. :(

Not as satisfying as Zealiostotles, gonna play around with these and see if any other mods jump out as particularly appealing.

I'm very very very very sorry about the wait for everyone left over.  I'm powering through what's left as we speak.

I've had a personal crisis in the last few weeks and made the hard decision of temporarily dropping out of school until next September.  Before I move back home, I WILL have all these packages shipped out.
