Title: Would SP ever consider POM (Delrin) plastic material?
Post by: dante on Fri, 10 October 2014, 14:01:10
You already stock POM sets from Cherry (http://keyshop.pimpmykeyboard.com/products/specialty-custom-keys/cherry-g81-3000-keycaps-original-laser-etched-keys).  I'm curious if you could produce some keycap sets with this POM/Delrin plastic - even if they were only blank (I'm not sure if doubleshot POM is even possible)?  DCS would be fine - but SA would also be outstanding.  :eek:

Their silence is deafening...maybe they are too busy counting the dollars from the latest GB, lol.

Keep in mind, Melissa, their main contact with the outside world, just had a baby a couple weeks ago.

Be patient, Melissa is out on extended leave. Bob is slowly handling the emails.

Bob is doing a fine job, in my limited experience.

I am not picking on him...it just seems to be slower in getting responses now that Melissa is away

Sorry for the delay! Unfortunately POM (Acetal) has too much shrink to run in our ABS tooling - the result would be unacceptable cosmetic parts - sorry!
