Title: tipro tmc free spacebar
Post by: jond_keyhack on Mon, 23 June 2014, 14:59:24
I really need a standard cherry mx spacebar to fit this tipro board. It has one centre stem and two stabalizers either side. I need the high profile type and typical slant of a spacebar as seen on normal keyboards.

Has anyone ever seen noe before this size?

Also see my other thread about modifying stems to an iso enter key as I dont know how to do this. thanks peeps of geekhack :D

not sure what you mean .. in terms of size - let me check
... it seems to span across ....yeh I think it may be four but I cant be sure ..hold on Ill get onto tipro manuals I guess.
there are three stems to it. Two are stabilizers basically

it seems to be 3 because the stabalizers go directly into the gaps shown in this diagram

I am completely limited to tipro based keys for the backspace, spacebar, enter button ( covering two stems). I really need some high profile keyys that will fit the staggered layout of tipro ie just two stems over a 2 standard width as opposed to one main stem and two stabalizers either side.

Does anyone know of a high profile key that could fit the backspace, spacebar and enter key for this? I spent the past 4 hours or so debating a purchase of some beautiful pbt double shots to discover that the spacebar wouldn't fit ditto the backspace and enter key.
