that's what I said... then I was like.. ooooo... aluminum Case... shiny....

then.. I'd tell myself, that's completely useless....

then I'd go,, but it's aluminum....

I drink a can of coke... and went, f&^c it.. and bought the vortex case.

Yeah. Unfortunately, the space bar that came with the keycap set didn't fit. Looked a little deformed. Not a big deal for me.

Hello,

Where did you purchase these PBT keycaps? I've been thinking about getting a set of 87.

http://mechanicalkeyboards.com/shop/index.php?l=product_list&c=40 has them. They only have full 108 key sets available though.

Mechanical keyboards are primarily vessels for novelty keycaps...

As the above person said, I got them at www.mechanicalkeyboards.com I really liked them but, like I stated earlier, the space bar was a little deformed so couldn't get it to fit. Probably a bad one. Nothing to be too hesitant about.

I see. However, the Leopold has different sizing on its space bar so I don't think the space bar that came with the set is deformed.

You're not alone. It would bother me to the same extent.

Matching spacebar might not necessarily be the way to go...

as long as you have a good trim color for it.. it should look fine.
