Yeah, I REtraded as the Brobots are originally his, and he's kind enough to agree to trade it for his pink blanks  thumbup.gif

If you have anything to trade for, I'll be willing to consider it. Though, I still have a lime green blank topre as my priority list

you cant compare your preference with another person, everyone has their own preference. most started with mx blue for the loud hey-im-working-over-here clicking sound, or im-a-gamer mx red. when u want something more quiet but wants to retain the tactile feeling, thats mx brown for u. and then there's the not so common mx black, mx clear, mx green....

there's no way for you to fully test out the switches on a switch tester (typing>pressing), so it is recommend either for u to test it out on demo keyboard or loan different switches keyboard from friends. another alternative is to buy and sell/trade if you no like the switch whistling.gif

Dental modded both my 45+55g mix Realforce 87U and 55g HHKB just now. Incoming some unflattering picture:

Gotta say, while I do like the raindrop sound, the shorter key distance travelled make me think whether I should unmod the dental band back. I still need to try some lubes first before completing my HHKB.  rclxm9.gif

Is it difficult to push the slider from the switch housing?
I never push one out before, it feel very tight and I m afraid of breaking it...

It is in fact pretty hard to push the slider out the first time I done it on my 87U, and you WILL end up breaking a bit of the little talon/notch from the slider to detach the slider from the housing. I learned that the easiest way to push out the slider is by using a ruler/screwdriver and use a bit of force by pushing down. A small bits from the notch of the slider will break but there won't be a problem reattaching the slider back inside the housing. Good luck with your mod if you're planning to do it thumbup.gif

What are the differences between 7bit spherical GB and other SA profile keysets?

Anyone knows the answer to this? unsure.gif

I'm asking because I can't see other differences other than the pricing.

I got it from Ebay with the specific size 3/16" Medium 3.5oz either http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEON-3-16-MEDIUM-3...=item1e7d2d9b0f or http://www.ebay.com/itm/130949156870 . You might want to check some Dental clinic first in case they got the one with the exact size.

I offered nemesis a pink blank topre or noxious Brobot-fn set for his Drunken. He chose the noxious set, then found out it was too yellow, instead of green for his taste, and asked if it's ok to take the pink blank instead. No problem, of course, as I think in a trade, both must be able to enjoy the caps. It's a community after all biggrin.gif

Topre

That is o-ring used for reduce typing sound of your keycaps.
The downside of the o-ring: will reduce actuation distance. sweat.gif

See my signature?

It's old, I sold my HHKB now, and dunno how to update it biggrin.gif
anyway, the other one is the Realforce, which is using Topre switch,
now CM's Novatouch is using it too, and it can use normal Cherry MX keycaps, which I m thinking......
