leopold otaku key question
« on: Sat, 09 June 2012, 16:43:07 »
So I just got a otaku (red switches), I love it so far. However, i got some key caps from wasdkeyboads.com and the space bar seems to not fit the otaku. Is this normal?

Unfortunately, the WASDkeyboards space bar does not fit Leopolds

The Profosist can mod it for you or EK sells high texture Leopold compatible space bars.

Hmm, any reason why? I mean, I was happy with the work when I had no other options a couple months ago, though the cost became a bit much on the revisions. I bought two spare spacebars from EK though last month just in case they went out of stock again.

I believe those EK Leopold compatible space bars are only compatible with the FC200R not the FC500R fullsize keyboard, which has different stabiliser stem spacing again.
