Title: My Wishlist: White boards, PBT key caps, etc
Post by: cinch on Sat, 18 August 2012, 09:42:35
- German ISO Topre, TKL, all 45g, in WHITE or GREY color
- German Filco Ninja Majestouch-2, TKL, Red Switch, in WHITE or GREY color

(main reason being, i can see the keys better when they're bright and dust isn't as visible)

- German PBT ISO Key caps, <- any color, this is so rare to get (would have to order them from china for high price on a Cherry G80-3000LSCXX-0)
- O-Rings (the one's available at http://www.wasdkeyboards.com/index.php/cherry-mx-rubber-switch-dampeners.html)
- Keyboard Lube: RO-59 and the Krytox GPL103
- Cherry MX Switches in Bulk (Red, Black, White, Clear, Brown, Blue)
- Titanium Springs (in various strength)
- Korean Switch Stickers (http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=34446.0)

thanks for consideration and hope you can have these in stock some time! keep on rocking!

Hi Cinch.

- German ISO Topre, TKL, all 45g, in WHITE or GREY color
- German Filco Ninja Majestouch-2, TKL, Red Switch, in WHITE or GREY color
I was just chatting with another guy who wants a white/grey 88 key all 45g Topre. But a UK one.
I think there is a case to get more in but I am undecided. Watch this space.
Fashion aside, pale colours are a better option for a keyboard. They are more visible and as you say - show less dust.

With Filco we just have to see what comes along but I don't think it will be this year.

These are all things we are considering. PBT caps are very difficult.
O Rings are on our list to get soon.
Lube, also on list.
MX modules - got them:  http://www.keyboardco.com/keyboard_search.asp?SG=V (http://www.keyboardco.com/keyboard_search.asp?SG=V)
The Titanium springs sound radical, I would need to work on that. Where do they come from?
Just off now to check out the link on stickers.
