Gumrot is unfortunately limited to MX switch types for now. So no, it would not work with your HHKB.
If it says topre, you can use it on HHKBIf it says MX, you can only use it on MX boards or CM Topre with Mx stem boards

Any advice as to where to get some sweet Topre caps for this baby. Ahhh it's so smooth compare to my Leopold tenkeyless blue switches.

Only place I ever saw them was Elitekeyboards but they are all sold out and the clackfactory website wasn't up last time I looked. Like I said I'm new here so excuse my ignorance in these matters please.
I think the OP is under the impression that clacks are off-the-shelf items and are only unavailable because it's waiting for a restock shipment.

lol alright lets get some noob questions out of the wayyou guys are right about me thinking its an off the shelf item (the gumrot) but since it doesn't work on topre switches then I guess why should I care as of now. So is it a user on here that makes them?what/who is noobinator?Is there a dip switch on this HHKB to make the "Command/meta" key do something? What does it even do? I thought that was kind of going to be the windows key. Is it possible to do that?Thanks for your patience I'm sure I'll have the hang on this and how things work around here in no time!
I'm on my phone or I'd link it. But there is a recent thread on the HHKB dip switches.
I couldn't make sense of the manual either.
Thanks for all the help guys, it's much appreciated. I think the manual was in a foreign language so I just tossed it to the side. I will double check tho.
for the dip switches I have everything Up but '2' and '5' Down

You can check the elite page below it should helphttp://www.elitekeyboards.com/products.php?sub=pfu_keyboards,hhkbpro2&pid=pdkb400bdo you meta keys do anything at all now?I'm thinking turn SW1 On and SW 2 Off to put it in light modeand remember you need to unplug it, switch the dip switches and then plug back in.

Where are you from kskwerl?What do you mean with 'flush synergy'? Gasmask had some blanks that would look great. I have one which is on my switch tester as I don't own any Topre (yet) and a mask.The two on the left are Topre compatible for example.Show ImageDon't worry Binge, I have you bookmarked. Check my sig. ;)
Bingecaps left out entirely
It's a user here who makes them. Clickclack/clackfactory Nubbinator is a user here as well. He makes keycaps, cables, and a few other things.The meta key should be a windows key, but I'm not sure.

Instead, I play around with wood projects (cases, wrist wrests, cap pullers, and keycaps), resin casting caps, metal casting caps, and other fun experiments when I have the time.
