This spacebar is from a vintage keyboard, it's about 8x long, maybe 8.5x. It's not the biggest obviously but it sure is extremly rigid due to very thick plastic, a lot of struts and a nice stabilizer. Not sure what material it is, I guess ABS though.

They are flocked! I coat each one with adhesive and then coat them in fibers.
[shameless-plug]
But wait! There's more!
These are actually available for sale at techkeys.us.
Buy one today, or Boiler will send them all back to me and charge me shipping.   ;D
Seriously... someone please buy one?  :-[

EDIT: Hey if people can beg for a clark, I can beg for someone to buy flocked keycaps.
