Is there a way to just get a single keycap? It's just a Row3 "Q" in black - anyone in the US have some spares?
If it helps, I think I still have a credit pending, should cover shipping.
Row 2 would be more plausible to me.
There is no FR-kit in your order and it even never existed in black.
Also:
Shipping of missing items is for free.

Or even better, get a color sample ring from Signature Plastics (about $35 plus shipping).

Sadly not about $35 ... they're $200 each (ABS and PBT are separate.)

Hello, 7bit.
I got a package of my R5 order few days ago, my order number is 105, can you please check if my all three packages are shipped?
BTW, can I track my other two packages?
Thanks.

^^Yes, I try to find out.
BTW, what does this mean (from a Chinese tracking site):
【曹安(本部)】已妥投
Google says "[Jo (Headquarters)] has Tuotou"
Does this mean "the package is at the Zollamt"?
DHL says, the package has been delivered, but that is not true.

It's a short form for '妥善投递', which translates to successful delivery, where the package is received and signed.
The only plausible reason why it's not shown as delivered might be because the company that received the package haven't update their systems.
China and it's insane amount of deliveries everyday

Don't react quite yet! Give it a little while to become clear. Dodgy tracking happens everywhere. I've seen what those delivery drivers do with the idiotic PDAs their bosses still insist on. Once the thing sends the DELIVERED!! signal, there's no taking it back. Broken systems…

It's been a week since we got a list of what's been shipped. How about an update?

Today!
I try to ship all the remaining stuff (including new orders and missing keys) until next week.

Fair enough, I was looking at the wrong line number in the Round5 wiki, it is indeed a Row2 "Q," part of the HONEY/STANDARD/BLACK set.
Do I send a replacement request via the bot?

Greystoke.. The bot sent me an extra black Q. It's yours if you want it.

I do this for you.
Replacements ship next week.
I will ship out all remaining packed orders today.

I received mine today, and it is awesome. I have also realized I am an idiot and I forgot to order the stepped caplock so I found myself writing to 7bot again

I placed an order and also paid with Google Wallet about a month ago. Evilcamel has confirmed he has received payment, but I haven't really gotten a confirmation from the bot showing that my invoice has been paid. Patiently waiting.

Everything has been paid up to the penny!
Just pm the bot to see your 0-balanced invoice.

Is there a source for stabilizer wire for the 4u/4.5u space bars? How difficult are they to make?
Posted: 19 Sep 2015, 16:01
by 7bit
Currently not. I can bend one for you, but if there is anybody out there who can 50-100 of them, I'm willing to pay 1 EUR per wire, plus shipping costs in both directions.
I will also include a PCB and a 4 units space bar, so you can check if the measures are right!

Awesome. Just one 4u wire for a Cherry stabilizer would be great, thanks.

I think those are simpler than Costar wires, right?
I could attempt to bend 50-100 wires but I have no experience with it. Under what conditions do Cherry stabilizers require the indent in the middle? It seems like the short ones don't need it, but the longer ones do?

So from what I can tell, SP is so backed up with work right now that the Danger Zone SA set won't make it into production until December, with shipping to MassDrop recipients expected some time in February of next year. That's assuming everything goes perfectly according to plan for that group buy. Chances are nobody will see Danger Zone keycaps in their mailboxes until March or April.
Now, I don't really care when Danger Zone delivers, but it does shed some light on SP's overloaded manufacturing schedule. By the time we reach MOQs on any of our stuff, we'll be at the end of a very long line of other jobs at SP, which is something I never really gave much thought to before.

I've got a bunch on 6.25 cherry stab wires (the came with both PCB- and plate- mounts), and none of them have the middle bend. I've seen the bend only on one keyboard - KBT Pure (plateless). I have the impression that the bend would interfere with the plate. Other than this, I have no idea why some of them are bent.

Carbon SA must have really overwhelmed them, I was naive to order it and to expect to be shipped on October heh, I hope my round 5 leftovers will arrive before Carbon set.

7bit, what is the measurements for 4u stabilizer mounts?
Are there any PCBs that support 4u spacebar? I'm going to do something with a 4u spacebar, and i want to know what my options are. Also need to validate that the plate I've modeled has the stabilizer holes in the correct spots

All of my keyboards (HYPER/MICRO, HYPER/MACRO, qHack and HYPER7 support these space bars).
Originally, these are for the Tipro keyboards.
Measures (as you can find them in the wiki) are:

Stabiliser mounts are 1.5 units left and right from the switch.

All payments that were made over the last week have finally been pushed to the bot. I will be back to a regular schedule of updating the bot from now until further notice. Also, the PayPal guide seems to have helped, I only had to refund 2 out of 16 payments
