Submitted for 10x each color.
Nice work on all the really good GBs. Also could we combine shipping with the clear switches?nope. they still have to make them, and i dont know how long it will take TBH. plus wait time from korea to me and blahblahblahblah. sorry :(
Thanks demik :D

Thanks demik :D
plus im thinking of sending these in envelopes (still have to find out how) so if i was to combine shipping would probably be more expensive since 'd have to get a box big enough for the switches and stickers

3600 switches! That's a whole lot

It's like when you buy bulk at Sam's Club - You do it so you don't have to keep going each week to buy the same stuff. I am buying this many so I don't have to keep worrying about ordering more, and the hassle involved.
Also, I will be able to add the option of stickers to my mod services :)
So no combined shipping with the switches, huh?yeah not gonna combine with switches. and the space between switches is REALLY thin. i dont want to risk ruining the stickers. sorry. normally i'd love to, but these being odd shapes (switch bags and these stickers) it's going to be expensive and a pain to ship together
So does it fit in a letter envelope? I don't mind if you fold it to fit into a letter envelope. Or cut it along the space bewteen stickers.
Is that possible?
I'll take 1 1 1. Sounds like a SC2 build
Oh, this sounds reasonable.
I'm in for one each. If we get green, also one of those.
Demik,Yeap!
Green(Yellow Green) will be available in this GB. :)
Demik,That being said I also want one in green. So one of each, four in total. Please change my order accordingly, thanks demik ;)
Green(Yellow Green) will be available in this GB. :)
also, this goes by SHEETS not stickers.
if you want 3 sheets, put 3 sheets. not 360 stickers :)

Make sure to order enough for all your keyboards, folks :pAnd future keyboards!
They are suppose to dampen the noise and stabilize the switch a little more.Do they?
It doesn't look like there are holes for the LEDs? What do I do about that?
Thanks.
gimme da milk, gimme da milk
Correct me if I'm wrong but these do work on PCB mounted switches? If they are plate mount do they have to be desoldered, stickered and resoldered?They should work on either but you will have to disassemble the switch. If you have a plate mounted board that requires you to desolder the switches to open them, then yes you will have to desolder them to open them.

i already explained that there is a cut where the diode goes, so therefor the legs of the LED will go through that. it doesn't bother the LED since that's outside the switch.

poke holes or stop using christmas tree keyboards
i already explained that there is a cut where the diode goes, so therefor the legs of the LED will go through that.Thanks for explaining it again :)
also, 90% of you changed your order.
i hate you!
just got word that.
from the moment i put in the order, it will take 4-5 weeks for me to get the stickers. that includes production time + shipping to me.
so basically, typical SP waiting time.
Says you >_>
tsangang!!
Which fusion technique is that? The earrings or fusion dance?
closing this up next friday. so production can start and we get these sooner

No.
O rings stop the switch bottoming.
These stop the top half of the switch from moving around sideways and up and down a bit on the bottom half, and making some rattling sound. They also therefore reduce the key cap sideways movement a bit.
I've never used them but did read the threads.
Have a look at my post at the top of page three of this thread. Click the link, download and listen to the mp3. It convinced me. :)
I just have to determine how many stickers I want and complete the form. :)
There are people here who have first hand experience of these and I'd have left it to them to post but I'm posting this reply as I want to place an add and I guess I need more posts.
Alls I knows is...stickers + slider lube + oiled 62g spring + clear stem = the perfect switch. If stickers are part of the equation, stickers it must be period.

You should also try lubed + stickered + spring modded vintage blacks.(have you?) They are favorite choice for many Korean keyboard enthusiasts.
is that due to a manufacturing difference or just because vintage blacks are old and worn out?

Oh, I thought they were double sided xD.
Thanks for the clarification !
Double sided stickers would mean that opening the switch later would ruin the sticker.Hadn't thought of that. Good thinking! Double sided sticker would make disassembling nightmare as well.
Would we be required to de-solder the switches to use these on a Filco MJ1 or MJ2? Sadly I think the answer is yes, but I thought I would ask to confirm.
any objections?
change of date. will be closing it on tuesday now. need to get this done already. orders have started to slow down anyway.
Ordered a red and green.
When you mentioned no combined shipping, that means for combining with other GB, right? Because no combining shipping for just 2 sheets seems a bit silly. I'm pretty sure this is how it is, but just had to clarify.
how many did I order?
two of each
DEMIK I DONT HAVE INVOICE YET
will these work on a Filco 87 TKL?

Send me Fossala's stickers, I'll proxy his order, so we don't have to wait.you're going to pay for his order?
And the waiting begins...We're always waiting for something...
I put the order in on Monday. Made payment last night since I had enough to cover the people that hadn't paid.
So, now we wait.
already put in order. i might have an extra red and yellow/pink (forget which) that i forgot to cancel.i really could care less what color. i know some people bought extra also so maybe they would be willing to sell me some.
wouldn't hurt to asklooks like i can get some from magicmeatball
Rather type on a dog turd than blues
But what lube?im thinking krytox off ebay
So we should get these late this week/early next?
Better get me some lube! Looking forward to my ergo clear project with stickers and lube.
Ohhh and some vintage black fun as well!

But seriously. I'll hook you up if I have a red sheet.
Do members sell to other members on this fourm?
I'd like to buy one of these sheets if anyone has any spares but can someone explain to me how this works?
Yep, there is a link to the classifieds subforum on the main page. You need a certain minimum number of posts to be able to post there though. (50 or 60 I think?)Thanks for the information! I'm still trying to get my bearings.
How it usually works is someone posts either a WTB (want to buy) or FS (for sale) thread, and interested parties respond via PM or by posting in the thread.
not even a date?
1 sheet is not going to be enough once you get into switch modding :pI wanted to bum 2 off someone because I thought that would be enough, now im looking at 10.
Multi-tasking for the win. You need MORE projects, concurrently!

Why not do it yourself?
I'm getting an alum case from treb once he get's his shop set back up. I was thinking of doing a plate for my poker but I don't mind it being PCB mount.

I don't know how to solder and I don't really have a place to do it. My cats would maul me over before I would even get through 30 minutes of it. Plus he's changing LED color, modding my browns to whites, and lubing stems/springs, etc etc. And he's awesome. So.

There used for a completely different thing. Than orings.
My Filco doesn't rattle. So I looked at your pictures of some sound meter thing. I believe I said "perceivable" which is to say someone's ears will not notice it, a machine doesn't count.
Assembly line technique is what I've always preferred. If you're working with bare switches (unsoldered), do a single specialized task at a time, task by task. This is how I go about my duties:I still remember the day you asked me how to pop open a switch
1) Disassemble every switch. Remove the top housing from the bottom, and separate the spring, stem and housing pieces.
2) Since I don't have a switch plate, I use a propped up G80 PCB for slotting the switch bottoms in preparation. So I put all the switch bottoms into the PCB to keep them in place and easy to work with.
3) Begin lubing every spring and placing them into the switch bottom.
4) Begin lubing every stem and placing them into the spring
5) Snap on the top housing to complete the modified switch.
got em. putting these on sucks
I only have PCB mounted boards, so I don't know if perceived difference is noticeable on plate mounted ones, but I am pretty sure that the effect would be similar.
tweezers = a must
I took the stickers off the sheet using the tweezers, just touching the corner of the sticker. I got the stickers over the slider, then I moved the thin "back" of the sticker past the "back" of the switch. I then move the sticker forward until both the back of the sticker and the switch were aligned. I then carefully put the tweezers off the sticker and then push the sticker down onto the switch. You don't need to push the sticker down really hard and get a really good contact, because the switch top will do that for you anyways.

lol. I use a micro screwdriver since it'll stick to half the tweezers anyway.
When I tried, it reduced rattling noise.I missed the GB but am very curious on how the stickers would effect both sound and feel.
If you want to hear sound samples you can look for "cherry_blues_sticker_mod.zip" in the following link.

Trust me I'm trying to get this over with. Just been busy as hell. I'll get to it this week I promise.
If someone else could figure out shipping method and costs in the meantime that would be great.cost should not be over 5-6 USD.
I suggest cardboard enforced envelopes.

5 post in a row bro really?Way to make it obvious...
Only 38 posts. I'll never get to place my ad on GH at this rate!
^It won't be too hard, and you're almost there. Just browse around, find something that interests you and ask about it. Most likely someone will answer you and you'll have more questions and that's how a conversation is born. ^_^Can I ask you about that statement?
Mine arrived yesterday.8 days later and mine haven't arrived yet.
Careful when doing that, don't want to be marked as a spammer.Any moderator who reads my 45 posts will see that I'm not, and
Do your best to make every post worth value!is exactly what I do which is why I can't get sufficient posts to place an advert here. But I can and have placed it over at DT, where I anyway have more posts than here at GH. I don't how many people from here DON'T read the classifieds there, not many I'd guess, so that one might do, plus eBay, but the keyboard won't sell.
Is there any leftover? I missed the chance. T_T
löl
//demik, why did you delete your post? Now my löl looks ridiculous and out of context :/
Mine haven't. Perhaps on Monday.No, they didn't arrive. I've received Wednesdays mail.
Still nothing here. What's it been, 4 weeks now? Only Demik knows when they were posted and didn't say when exactly that was.
Demik did you get proof of postage? I think four weeks is the longest for anything to get to me from the USA and that was only due to 'industrial action' at the post office or customs office here where the parcel had arrived there after three days and then sat there for 3½ weeks waiting for someone to clear the backlog. I've had a few small items from the USA this year and 5 to 10 days I think they been. And envelope can be 3 or 4 days. Oh, yes, just remembered, a couple of weeks ago I had the WASD parcel; ordered to received in about 5 days.
If the stickers are lost, I'm thinking now that I'll have to make a PayPal claim for my money back or something. There's a limited time to do that I think?
It's shame that this fell apart after Demik you seemed so keen and proactive at the beginning. Then the simple and quick task of stuffing, labelling and posting out 55 envelopes seemed to be too difficult. I don't know why people have such and enormously hard time with this aspect. I was in a group buy early this year which the person seemed to overwhelmed with 100 small parcels and yet had spent evening after evening for weeks designing and prototyping the boards. Many years ago I used to send that much out between arriving in the office and making the coffee. Envelopes though not parcels, they take a while to make up the boxes, but even then I'd just stick at it for an hour or so and they're done.
Perhaps it would have been better to have posted all the European ones over to one reliable person who could have reposted them all the same day?
I want to put some kindling on the fire, so how many hundreds of dollars did these switch stickers cost you, Ian?As I just posted, that's why in my car club the club now pays the initial payment to remove the risks from the organiser. And in this stickers case we all paid in advance anyway....so you must be making some other point....err....I bought 4 sheets, that's not the issue. Left dangling for weeks with no comm's at all is the issue.
Demik is trustworthywith 7000 posts I presumed that.
and it's not his fault if an envelope or two gets lostApparently it's 12, that's about 23% or so of the total quantity so something's gone very wrong there somewhere. After this amount of time I felt, correctly as it transpired, it was fair to presume they were missing presumed dead, and something needed to be done. The time for patience was over.
