Hmm, I don't know if this is the correct place to ask this, but I guess it is somewhat related.I got a LightSaver from the Originative group buy months ago, and I lost one of the rubber feets while travelling.Any idea where I can buy those?
They said next week. Sorry guys.
I would but I'm on my phone but there is a thread about it somewhere. Production is done.
Does someone have an ebay link they would recommend for SIP sockets for LED swapping?

I went with MX Blues because those are my favorite switches. No experiments for this one!Stock MX Clears are too stiff for me. Do you get them modded to ergo clears?
I got clears too, but haven't had a chance to feel it on a real keyboard. Brown is my favorite switch so far(only tried blue, red, black and brown).Maybe I will get some 78g gold spring from sprit, but I don't think I can wait..
I can't stop looking at pictures of lightsavers... What kind of switches you guys going with? I got clears... Never used them, but I love browns and always hear how good they are. I have a single one and it's nice, but kinda hard to get a feel for typing with oneswitch...

I've been looking around for transparent cover no luck but I guess white switch with white cover isn't bad at all...*trying to cheer myself*

These covers are made by Cherry and fit 100%.I heard that the after market replacement covers had some issues...

Do the plates allow for switch removal without desoldering? Not that it would matter for me.

I have some not so great news.There is a delay in shipping. I apologize on their behalf. The lightsaver sets will ship next Friday and PCB/Plate orders will ship sometime this weekend. For those with assembly option will have to wait 2 more weeks.Again, I apologize on their behalf for the delay. Somewhat expected, so I should've added a few weeks extra with the estimated time they given me. I'll do that next time. I am eager as you are in receiving this set as I participated as well, so I hope we get them soon!
is it possible to split the numpad 0 on this board?i realize i missed this buy [not sure why I passed it over]if I can split the numpad 0 I might be on the hunt for one of these.

Since shipping is near I'll have to ask this:Do I understand it correctly that the boards will be shipped directly from Korea? Elton, can you influence what they put on the box? I am looking at 20% import tax so it would be great, if the box was declared 40$ or something instead of 400$...
