Title: Re: WTS: KMAC LE
Post by: korrelate on Sat, 13 July 2013, 22:13:30: Sorry for the noob quesiton, but in my defense I did try to find the answer before posting this question: "Does the plate for this LE that you're selling allow switch mods w/o de-soldering?" As far as I can tell, it looks like the answer is no. Could you please confirm/refute as necessary? Thanks!
Title: Re: WTS: KMAC LE
Post by: tadbitnerdy on Sat, 13 July 2013, 22:14:36: You are correct, the answer is no. Well, I guess with the proper amount of force, anything is possible, but then you would have a modded switch without a working keyboard... not ideal :)

Post by: Jack Karneval on Mon, 15 July 2013, 12:22:42: That KMAC looks very classy and would only look better with the right set of key caps on it! I wish I could buy it tadbit, but it's just not the right time.... GLWS ;)
Title: Re: WTS: KMAC LE
Post by: tadbitnerdy on Mon, 15 July 2013, 22:53:23: Well, its been 24 hours... bump!

And thanks all for bumping for interest/out of kindness. I appreciate it!

Best geek community I've had the pleasure of being a part of (though, also the most harmful to my wallet) :)

You do. But you DON'T need Caps Lock. So here's what you do. Set Caps to Ctrl, set Ctrls to Alts, and set Alts to Supers. Et voila!

Post by: Glissant on Tue, 16 July 2013, 15:34:18: Moose, that's way too much hardcore even for me. I do think I will make my caps into ctrl and switch l-ctrl into super :D.

Or you could just set Caps as Super. I used to do that, until I saw the light...

I wish I could do monthly payments on this lol.

you can via paypal feature bill me later, no interest for 6 months.... I purchased the TrixK board with stabilizers $530 + Dolch DSA buffed out $135, had the money but since I use their services constantly, at least 1 loan per year I can use, pay it off in 6 months like a breeze.
Title: Re: WTS: KMAC LE
Post by: Lastpilot on Tue, 16 July 2013, 19:01:45: I think bill me later rejected me lol. Thanks for the advice though :)

Hmm maybe I will try it again lol

That is another choice. And I don't think I will ever see the light with that "mess" you use =p

Title: Re: WTS: KMAC LE (Price drop!)
Post by: tadbitnerdy on Fri, 19 July 2013, 21:34:41: Hi AKIMbO,

I'm sorry, I do not know. They feel a bit like standard blacks, but I can't say for certain. Just testing how it feels compared to my other switch types.
Title: Re: WTS: KMAC LE (Price drop!)
Post by: Glissant on Fri, 19 July 2013, 21:38:02: They feel like black switches, but have the click, right? Then they are most likely stock white.
Title: Re: WTS: KMAC LE (Price drop!)
Post by: tadbitnerdy on Fri, 19 July 2013, 21:44:06: Yes yes. You are correct. Thanks!

Post by: slip84 on Mon, 22 July 2013, 19:53:29: Gotta ask since I see so many Kmacs moving around on these forums: how do y'all deal with missing Windows keys? I can't do it. I have tried. I realize I use them like every ten or so seconds. I can't imagine AutoHotkey being a permanent solution.

Regardless, free bump!

People use the windows key?
Title: Re: WTS: KMAC LE (Price drop!)
Post by: Glissant on Mon, 22 July 2013, 19:56:47: Ctrl+esc or just reprogram caps to be super if you really need it =).
Title: Re: WTS: KMAC LE (Price drop!)
Post by: Lastpilot on Mon, 22 July 2013, 20:44:37: Seriously, if someone buys this keyboard I will buy it back from you for the same price next year.
Title: Re: WTS: KMAC LE (Price drop!)
Post by: tadbitnerdy on Mon, 22 July 2013, 22:49:20: Thanks again Glissant for the info! You are greatly helping out my thread :)

I ditched the windows key in favor of reprogramming it to be the function key on my KMAC Mini. I never really used the windows key anyways. I always used AutoHotKey to map it to something useful.

Someone needs to buy this board before I change my mind! :)

Only barely related, but I do this on my computers just for comfort. Winkey gets disabled, Caps gets set to Winkey. Who uses capslock on a regular basis anyway?

I do actually, because there are many variable values that are all caps... I use it most when creating dummy data.

Sadly in my line of work, it's a necessity. About 60% of what I do involves some sort of shortcut in the OS and the OS at work is Windows of some flavor. Fact of life for me.

Maybe my fingers are just sufficiently long to make it easy enough to not notice, but I do not get any discomfort or loss of speed from holding shift for such things.

Tools to "prettify" my code made me a little more lazy with this, but my shift gets heavy use.

Don't use SQL much? I can do it holding down shift but I slow down considerably.
