Hey Andrian, it's actually 6.25u for spacebar.

Yup. They’re identical to the standard MX layout you’ll find on Filco etc. 1.25u mods and 6.25u spacebar. For maximum caps compatibility.

He doesn't want to put a spacebar on the Novatouch, he wants to put it on a converted Topre kebyoard. So it's 6u. It doesn't actually matter, what he wants are two pieces from the Novatouch that can be placed (probably) in a Topre keyboard to stabilize the spacebar. So, it's about the two cruciform sliders & housings stabilizing the spacebar, below:

Thanks a lot Lazer ! You are right ! I'm searching for the housings + plungers that stabilize the spacebar. I can use the 6u wire from the topre keyboard that I want to convert

I allready did that mod on a FC660c.
Basically you put the mx top housing + plunger in the topre board, if you look at the picture I shared earlier, you can swap the spacebar housings between them and use the 6u wire from the topre keyboard

I'd also like to try a variable weight dome sheet, anyone is willing to let his/hers go?

Hi, for the stabilizers you want to use/build, would cherry parts be of any help?
I would be happy to give you some from the PCBs here

for free, if you can use them.

Thanks a lot for the offer, I found a mod that used costar/cherry stabilizers but in plate mount and ordered some 6u's from AliExpress to try out the mod and experiment.
I'll keep your offer in mind, you are very kind !
