Title: [WTB] Silver Aluminum Spacebar, Ducky Shine TKL Purple (MX Browns)
Post by: Photoelectric on Sat, 18 May 2013, 14:46:37: Updated:

* I am looking to get a Ducky Shine TKL with Purple LEDs and MX Browns (though if you have other switches--let me know).

* I would also love a silver aluminum spacebar from Feng's old GB.

And finally, I would love a silver aluminum spacebar from Feng's old GB. Unsure if it came in Cherry profile as well as OEM, like the new colored ones do, but Cherry would be preferable.

That original GB only came in OEM profile. I have one and I have used it with Cherry keys as well as SP keys. Thankfully, the space bar can be a slightly different profile and it isn't detrimental to the overall look. :)

EDIT:
Here it is next to an SP space:

Also, if you're planning on going with the metal space bar, keep the black spring in that switch. It's too heavy for MX reds.

The oem looks "sticking-out" even on oem profile.. so with Cherry, it is "even more.. though I don't see this as much of a problem..

Post by: Photoelectric on Sat, 18 May 2013, 22:19:14: Ok, I have to ask... What is this Potato everyone keeps mentioning here? I'm guessing from context it's slang for some sort of a photo taken with a phone. Never seen that term until I started reading GH!

Post by: Photoelectric on Mon, 20 May 2013, 18:54:13: Thank you, I have seen those, but the red is not Cherry profile, nor is the silver one still available (older GB). Silver would be most perfect, even as OEM.
