Cherry: Red Blue Black Brown Grey, Clear, White, Green, Dark Grey
Gateron: Red Blue Black Brown
Kailh: Red Blue Black Brown

There will be 3 options for keycaps: Translucent, SP Grab Bag or no keycaps
Prices will be cheaper than all other switch testers currently on the UK market.

Will you ship internationally? A 24 switch tester would be great for displaying moderate collections of artisan keycaps ;)
Also exotic switches? Super blacks? Linear gray? Tactile gray? Would be great options :)
-
Nice!
I'll be the first mod-minded person to ask - what's the back/case look like, is there room for a Teensy? 24 keys is half a keyboard, or an extended numberpad...
Oh and congrats on the sub :thumb:

I'll ship internationally but it won't be free shipping obviously :D
If you can point me where to get those switches I will include them as options :D

Thanks! The case is essentially just a tray with some rubber feet on it, if you want to add a Teensy you'd probably have to fabricate your own case

Or maybe just some taller feet? A pic from the side/top (whichever's open) would be great :)

Bigger rubber feet might work, I'll send you a picture on Monday :D

Whoops! Totally forgot, sorry. Here is an image from the side, as you can see there isn't much space to spare :D Also I want to note the rubber feet positions look like it might be unstable in this position, but there are numerous more feet that can't been seen in this image, and it's very stable indeed :D

My turn to forget!
You're right, there isn't much room so it would need a custom PCB or maybe the Teensy could be mounted on the end... More thinking required!

Full range now available

I purchased one of your mega switch testers a couple of weeks back - thanks for the fun selection of keycaps, by the way ;D - and I was thinking: I don't know where you source the plastic trays, but if you could have trays made to fit Alps switches, that would be amazing. I for one would love to have a way to hold my collection of Alps switches that doesn't involve plastic bags or cannibalizing a vintage keyboard.
Also, please add an option to buy the trays without switches -- while I love the mega tester with all the standard Cherries, Gaterons, Kailhs etc., I'd love to have another tray next to it with vintage Cherry MX blacks, nixies, Razers, Zealios, etc.
