Adapting the 6.25 space bars to 6.0 isn't too difficult... I've converted three space bars so far for my Cherry G80-11900.

What you need to do:
- identify the section of the space bar with the larger empty space between the mounting positions
- identify your band saw and cut exactly 3.8 millimeters ...

Forget the deadline!

The real questions is this:
Does SP have the order yet?

Does Signature Plastics have the order yet?

No, the order is complete, but the overrun is needed to make sure that costs for key caps are kept down and to make sure that the SP production team is not getting insane. I've aggreed to order in multiples of 25 which causes those many OVR-kits.
:-)

We have almost the funds together to pay SP so ...

I was concerned that using my Visa via paypal might behave as a cash advance rather than a basic charge. I run into this problem using my Visa online with certain bills I pay and sometimes simply buying something.

You can confirm that you don't get a cash advance penalty?

Edit: Nevermind ...

I'm jumping in to buy some R5 leftovers and got an order ready to send out, but after reading the R5 wiki page and searching this topic I still have a few questions.

What methods can I use to make a payment other than paypal? I made a transfer to paypal but I have to wait a number of business days ...

I imagine you'll be able to pay with paypal just fine. I believe the worry about small payments with paypal is that 7bit is charging 4% for paypal fees, which in most cases isn't exactly what paypal is charging. What paypal will actually charge is either 2.9% or 3.9% + $0.30 flat. In most cases ...

All paid up, for realz this time. Caps gon look so gud!

You can try.. I got an incomplete invoice back after trying my latest order.. not sure if that means I won't be getting what I want, or if it means I really have to bother 7bit about it to get what I want

Put in my (better be last...) order, hopefully the kits aren't sold out!

What's the verdict on adding more to our orders? I'm thinking I want to add a couple of 1u keys and a spacebar or two to for compatibility with another of my keyboards. Can we still add a couple keys?

Invoice received and paid! Today has been a good day.

UHHH I'M GONNA DO IT... Black/Red for my RK-9000R...


Welp, colour-coordinated RK-9000 is happening... awaiting my new invoice.

[edit] nvm, thought about it, I can't math. Disregard. By paying 100% now I may have lost out on a dollar or two if there is a refund. Oh well, no biggie.

All paid up!

And something something boobs?

Hmm... I think I may buy three space bars... One to sacrifice, one to modify, and one as a backup...

What are the prospects of getting a 6-unit spacebar? Is it possible? (to fit a Cherry G80-11900)

If not, anybody have experience modifying a 6.25 spacebar to fit?

Hi all, I'm looking to fill a Cherry G80-11900LUMEU-2 keyboard.

So far, I'm looking at:
HONEY/STANDARD125
HONEY/MODEXTRA100 (1-unit mods)
HONEY/FUNCTION/RED (splash of red)
HONEY/SHIFT200/R4 (for right-shift)
HONEY/TILDEBPRIME/GREY & HONEY/VERTBSL150/GREY (for colour symmetry!)
HONEY/SPACE625

So I ...

Hi 7bit, would it be possible to get a Grey R3 1 Unit [ | \ ] key available? I realized the keyboard this set will probably end up on is a steelseries 6gv2, which has 1 unit [ | \ ] on R3. I'm looking for grey to match the mods and maintain the symmetrical grey 'U' colour shape around the alphas.

Hi 7bit, what are the chances that we could get a Grey R1 [ `~ ] key and a Grey R2 [ \| ] key in the HONEY/STANDARD125 set? You know, for symmetry :3
