Hello everyone,

I put in an order of some ROUND5a caps and was wondering if someone could confirm (maybe post pics) of the BOTTOM of the caps from ROUND 5

from what i have read on reddit and geek hack, the bottoms of keycaps from SP are not always even, or don't have the cross beams that OEM caps do.

i want to put some o-rings under my caps and want to plan accordingly.

i tried searching for something similar to this on DT, but perhaps my search-fu is lacking.

thanks!

You can't put o-rings on SA caps. They don't have crossbars and the stems really deep.
I just tried on one oy my round 5 key and I needed to stack 5 or 6 o-rings (depending on the row) before it starts dampening anything.

I think it will be better to use mx silents (when the exclusivity is over), some kind of landing pad or trampoline mod.

yeah, you'll need multiple o-rings and in different sizes. i think someone posted on reddit with a count of it. something like 1x 3mm, 1x 2.5mm and 2x 1.5mm for Row 1 SA

i got a package from Germany! i got round 5 leftovers, 2x 1.25u lotus keys and non scooped F and Js haha. thought they'd ship together with round 5a when it's done

Thanks for the heads up! if i find something that works or come up with a unique solution i will post a follow up.
I'm sure others out there may want to use dampeners with SAs.

Hi, I ordered some sets and paid for them two weeks ago but still no payment confirmation. Can I get an update on my order? Whenever I pm the bot WASSUP it either doesnt reply back or sends me another invoice. My order number is #0678 I also pmd 7but but he hasnt replied yet. 7bit, if you see this please reply when you can. Thanks

I'm quite sure Evilcamels will include you in hiw next update.

Your payment has been recorded WhitePlate. The reason it took so long to register with the bot is that you didn't include your username with the payment so I only knew the order number, not who it was from. All better now!

My payment ten days ago has not fared as well it seems... (and I didn't leave anything out that I'm aware of).

Will there be no grey-on-white (GPA/WFK) space cadet hands/roman numerals in R5a?

You mean like this?

That's white-on-grey, not grey-on-white.

Ok thanks. Sorry about that.

Well, there are no grey-on-white keycaps anywhere in Round 5a, so...

Forgive me, but aren't the alpha/numeric/symbol keys in the honeywell colourway (e.g. HONEYB/TKL) grey-on-white?

Nope. Black on white, like the original.

Ah, that explains things. Thanks.

Got my keycaps!

Thanks so much 7bit for running this. You are awesome.

This is the monster I'm using on my tread-desk until 5a comes in.

You made this happen, 7bit.

"Send money for Service!!Not as Gift or Goods!!"
Where can I find the option in Paypal?
Payment method select the 'Pay for goods or services' is correct?

Select "Pay for goods or services" and when it asks to choose a delivery address select "No delivery needed, I am paying for a service" or something along this line.

Thanks for your help, problem fixed and payment has been sent successfully.
Now I only hope that the keycaps will become a Christmas gift of this year:o

Is there any email I should get after purchasing?

0220 <---- came back already
0277
0345

If you think it will arrive this way, please re-submit your address without your name.

Sorry I only check this thread every couple of weeks. I'm 277 and I sent an address update to 7bot, though I think it should be fine if you ship it without a name.

Evilcamels sir, my payment has been recorded?

Sorry to bring this up again, but is there any news on the replacement vertical '+' keys from round 4? I'm guessing that round 5 hasn't shipped yet, and the keys will ship with that?

If not, how would I go about ordering these directly? Does anyone have a spare that they'd be willing to sell? My key is steeply slopped rather than flat.

Please ask questions in the [Round 5] thread or pm 7bit.

Sorry to spam the board with this, but I didn't receive any response to my 7bit PMs over the past month.

Dear 7bit:

In my INVOICE #0654 I ordered some Round 5 leftovers.

1. The invoice shows 2x HONEY/LOTUS175. However I never sent 7bot any instruction for "HONEY/LOTUS175 2". I did send "HONEY/LOTUS175 1" in two separate 7bot instructions, but this should not result in increased quantity of the item. Would it be possible to remove the additional key because I did not intend to order two of them and have no use for the other key.

2. I ordered G/BLANK/R3U175/RED back before the HONEYB/LOTUS175/RED were added to the GB. But preferring the LOTUS I sent "G/BLANK/R3U175/RED 0" and added the HONEYB/LOTUS175/RED instead. However it seems that did not work and my invoice still shows the "G/BLANK/R3U175/RED". I have no use for the blank any more because the LOTUS is better.

Thank you.

Thank you.

to my understanding you just send "HONEY/LOTUS175 1" and it'll put it at one. otherwise set it to zero and reorder.

maybe it's ready for shipping? is that order from the leftovers? the stuff i ordered from leftovers was set aside and couldn't be changed

These shipped yesterday:
0049
0252
0345
0651
0654
0658
0672
0680
