    THERE WAS NO SENDING. Just driving to some weird backwards place where the level crossing literally closes at 9pm rendering you stuck out basically in the sea.

    Currently use blacks at work and blues at home, popping back in here with all this talk of more unusual switch combos is making me want to fiddle again....

    Was home last week and so had a quick tap on my old poker with ergo clears, steel plate, alu case and IMSTO blanks (beige), daym that was a nice board.

    These are nice keycap pullers, this bit makes me laugh

    As these pullers literally do scar and bruise caps :p All the wire ones do, if you get a stubborn cap and pull to hard with these pullers, they will mark/fowl the bottom of your caps.

    Well now. I sent it over from my hands into yours, so technically it was sent. It was indeed in a weird place with a manual level crossing though, where it was really foggy and right on the beach, by a house!

    Yeah except you were smuggling computer goods - and using your daughter and her push chair as cover.

    Shameless crosspost.

    I received a perfect mix of the GMK mini pack. :rock:

    I had a mini heart attack however when I noticed the envelope was torn open in a couple of places. :eeek:

    Spacebar police came knocking... they heard there was an abused spacebar around here. I showed them a G81-1800...

    I've got some 3x spacebars coming, I ordered them off the internet :worried:

    Just been looking at some more shots of the GMK doubleshot RGB mods I ordered from EK... dayum, they're thick! Really looking forward to getting these now, it's shame they don't stock windows/menu keys... I'll have to sit them next to some cheap lasered Cherry POMs :/

    EDIT: Image for reference

    yes cherry/gmk caps are very thick, is why everyone loves them :D I have been thinking about getting one of those RGB sets, but I have a BSP PBT RGB dye sub set that I've never used so I really need to stop getting things that I just put in a box ha.

    Sorry to hear that :/

    I'll make sure to keep an eye out to see if there's something I want, it'll be for a good cause after all!
