My keycaps arrived as well and they look great!!

One minor thing though;
Left shift and control key didn't fit well with my filco keyboard so had to cut edges off;

People report this frequently. I've only ever heard of it with Filcos. :-/

mkawa · « **Reply #601 on:** Thu, 07 June 2012, 01:32:24 »

the tolerances of the SP ABS molds seem to frequently collide with the tolerances on costar boards. go figure.

Same here with every SP left shift I have gotten. I know before I even try to put it on my Filco board that I need to get he file out.

I also got my keys and they look very nice, thanks.

How much did you guys shave of to make it flush with the other keys on the filco

I assume you mean shave off the left shift key. I have never measured this myself, but I take a long metal file I have and just do a bit of trial and error. I also try to file at a sloping toward key stem angle which leaves a better looking key imho.

I received my set today. Thanks mbc for running the GB and the extra esc key (re: #514).

Thanks for mangling the **** out of my box, USPS. Keycaps were fine though, looking good (though noticeably bolder than my WYSE keys).

I may be picky about this, but I believe the perfect yellow has yet to come. The old one is too pale, the new a bit too orangish.

And that yellow is delicious. Not sure if SP has a close match though.

Anyone have an extra short right shift from here they don't need?

Pretty sure all my keyboards have long AKA normal sized right shifts. PM me your address and the length of it (so I don't send you the short left shift by mistake) and I'll mail it out when I have time.

You are a horrible person. What has been seen cannot be unseen.

Nice call though. That shade of yellow would definitely be awesome to have.

@ MagicMeatball ... Do you know when yours shipped. I'm trying to get an idea of time frame. Mine shipped 2 weeks ago yesterday, so it's been 15 days, today. How many days did your take?

Hey John - 2 weeks was about how long it took. No worries, it will show up

One of the few shots were the horrible, horrible shift profile actually doesn't look to bad. Still pretty bad but at least you can look at it without vomiting. I really hope this will not be as noticable as soon as my C&C SP set is in place.

Did you send a PM to mbc? I think I would have done that rather than hope my post gets seen in a sea of group buy posts.
