Got my "soap dispenser" space invaders board today. Pics and review to come. I'm afraid to try it out since I'm not sure if it's XT or AT. It is a nice linear switch though, just the board needs some cleaning.

Belfong · « **Reply #24060 on:** Tue, 26 August 2014, 20:01:54 »

Got UMAD Angry Summer Set Topre and a OOC Orange BroBot Topre at slightly above cost from a bro!! I'll put them on my yellow-orange RealForce and take some photos later. So excited to slowly complete my angry RealForce. Ha ha.

As promised, soap dispenser NMB Hi-Tek pics. I have no clue of the date of manufacture, if it's XT or AT (I hope AT, but think it's XT), or much info about them. I can say that they're very nice linear switches with a shorter throw.

My post office luck is on a roll today. I received the UMAD and OOC in the morning. And now, 6 hours later, I received the Conservative Red bro from a trade. Today is Bro Caps day!!!

Morning:

Evening:

Interesting to note that the Conservative Red has a two tone red shade. Brighter in the base, a darker layer on the face.

I can barely see it on my monitor, and it is actually more noticeable in the 2nd to last pic from above. I'd say no big deal, and nice cap.

I don't know ****, but it SEEMS like he does the face, then gets the white in there, then does the rest of the body of the cap. I'll call it a triple-shot with you. And so it is.

My friend in Florida and I send notes and do drawings that we each contribute to and send back and forth. It is a much better feeling seeing that in your snail mail box than seeing an email or PM pop up. Maybe I'm old.

I'll probably work on my penmanship first before I venture into that territory...

Bob told me a better pen won't make my penmanship better or make me write faster...he did however ask me what keyboard I'll be buying next.

I just love the less common and unusual stuff. Sometimes it's cheaper and it's always cool to add to the knowledge base since it seems like there's a lot of stagnation or people thinking only MX and Topre exist.

It really is an awesome feeling. It makes me sad that no one really sends letters anymore. They're so much more personal than an e-mail, even if the content is identical.

I've been sucked into the Apls hole, but Space Invaders definitely worth getting back into. They're interesting switches that are under-appreciated.

Clear switch tops from TechKeys. Unfortunately 2 were broken but that is exactly the reason why I ordered a few more than I needed.

Aphex Twin Vinyl!

I'm not sure about your order, but as of a few weeks ago I started adding a few extra covers to orders for that reason.

Those covers look sharp as hell - nice shot!

I ordered 65 and got 66 and I need 59. So no worries, I got more than enough!

Yeah, those covers look great!
