QUOTE(lowyatguy @ Oct 17 2013, 10:04 PM) -Some members are selling at garage sales threads or heavyarm at subang is selling that, usually priced between RM15-RM30. Thanks for the reply and heads up regarding non standard keycap sizes. I don't think I will be needing more than the stock keycaps that came with any keyboard I mentioned.-Wider as in the touch surface? Then u have to look for different profile keycaps like DSA (I guess that is having wider surface than normal keycaps like DCS/OEM/Cherry profile) but I cant be sure. -Some are selling TKL set (From www.taobao.com or some other keycaps store which can be found in the first page of this thread) heavyarm sell mostly single keycaps or 37 keys set. -Worth to get another cherry mx if u wanted to try another MX switches, or u alr satisfied with the current Filco Mx switches. -Poker 60% is nice, having almost the full keystrokes as the fullsize keyboard through secondary keys (FN+x). -HHKB no idea but heard very good due to Topre switches. -CM QF TK, good luck with the layout for future keycaps replacement. -Filco MANILA also good luck with the super pain in the ass keysizes Guess its either GS or overseas for my current keycaps hunting then. I noticed you also have some keyboard for sale |

So i figured out the spacebar problem... it's the construction of the space bar itself. The middle insert is too big, so I'm filing it down. The side stabilizers are no longer an issue since I cut it all off. Still sticky key though... any more ideas?

Haha QUOTE(justnits @ Oct 17 2013, 12:19 PM) yes, you should have gotten a tkl or 60% if space is a constraint one day u will get all XD now im at TKL , recently bought a f104... considering 60% XD !but dun worry, u'll find ways to make do with watever space u have on your table QUOTE(dadudeneverabides @ Oct 17 2013, 01:36 PM) ![]() Forgive the slightly tacky arrangement of the keys. Just wanna show off as much as I can at the same time. Got the blue PBT keycaps and the KBT ONI from Sup2Nic (shoutout!) except that Poslaju does nothing laju and nearly failed the pos part. White keycaps bought off taobao (around RM112) for whole set (meant for my Ducky Zero Shine at home). Feels quite heavy and feels like ABS (although I'm not sure if it's really ABS) and has good feels I might retain the blue keycaps on this one because it looks kinda professional too. White keycaps definitely going to be stuck at home because of the "geng" font. |

I don't have it right now in my laptop but u can just do a quick google, someone in GH has posted the English ver. of the manual before.AFAIK, you will nv able to fully remap the key, only program the keys as secondary keys. Function row keystrokes = FN + numbers row Wan a re-map-able 60%? Go get some Korean PCB or GH 60 |

Ok, so now I just remember of an alternative or "better" way to us your function row Mr. Diablo.AFAIK, you will nv able to fully remap the key, only program the keys as secondary keys. Function row keystrokes = FN + numbers row Wan a re-map-able 60%? Go get some Korean PCB or GH 60 1)Do not program any secondary key (beside functions row) 2)Program your numbers row into functions row as secondary keystrokes. 3)Press FN+Right Shift (This is to toggle the programmed secondary keys, with this, functions key will be ur primary key now on numbers row). When "Toggle" mode is triggered, the spacebar's left LED will lit. I know u won't understand this if u r not poker 2 user, but it can be done in such a way to replace the numbers row with functions row. |
