No way! Maybe we should do an IC/GB for what OP is looking for. Regardless, this is probably going to be an epic thread.

I would estimate I need about 400 of those caps to cover a table. If I can get some support, this table will happen! Let's start the fundraiser!

imagine a chair.

this chair has wheels, like an office chair.

you can raise it up and down.

'cause it's sitting on top of a huge cherry mx switch.

WITH WHEELZ.

also, i always thought that blacks or super blacks would make a nice bed!

Blacks or Super Blacks on a bed would be very interesting...of course you would need a pad to keep from having pressure points and to evenly distribute the force...
