That's one of the ones that's supposed to go on 'F' or 'J'. Deep dish homing key. :thumb:

Post by: Jools on Mon, 20 October 2014, 21:21:39: I fixed it, I just now noticed it myself after Lethal had said something, one of the keys was hiding under something on my desk.

Post by: frosty on Tue, 21 October 2014, 01:18:28: Nice! How are you liking the PBTs compared to the stock ABS keycaps?
Title: Re: My First Mechanical Keyboard
Post by: Jools on Tue, 21 October 2014, 15:08:27: I really love the texture of them and the sound difference I didn't think would be that noteable, but it is. So all in all, there awesome.
