Despite the site screaming left and right that one should not count on a proper keyboard's worth of keycaps at all, much LESS a matching set, and despite years of forum and reddit posts declaring their underwhelming nature, I still bought a 5-pound (2.27kg) sack of random keycaps from Signature Plastics in Washington state.

I just have to know, and I'm kind of unironically looking forward to sorting them like so many Lego bricks. I may even get a few that are useful for my projects.

Surely there's enough for a macro pad in there? It's like the makers version of a scratch off lotto ticket lmfao

[–] wjrii@lemmy.world 9 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Most likely, yes. I think most people do end up finding one or two smaller boards' worth of "unicorn barf," which is to say everything is the right shape and 95-99% have the right thing written on them, but the colors are totally random and visually jarring. I also have a few ideas that might benefit from some of the weirder caps, (like a big square that uses four keybaord switches... people seem to end up with some of those) and occasionally you'll land on something that someone in the hobby actually does need and you can help them out. A lot of it is simply indulging a certain need to examine and categorize.

I mean if you're into mechs I can see how that could come in handy for spares if anything, or just fucking around. Depends on the price though if you're paying anywhere close to normal price then it's probably not worth it, if it's like 10% of the price then sure why not.

I bought an old pachislo machine from a garage sale because ... I'm not real sure, but I have one of those now.

[–] nailingjello@lemmy.zip 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Looks fun. How much was it?

[–] Triumph@fedia.io 6 points 2 days ago

$75, and it works. Well ... worked, it's being weird now, but I'm sure it's mechanical, I just haven't gotten to looking at it.

Self-balancing electric vehicle gang! I have a VESC onewheel build and it’s the best waste of money ever.

[–] QuinnyCoded@sh.itjust.works 6 points 3 days ago (1 children)

those are so much money, I'm so jealous lol
I just got mine for 350 off Facebook marketplace

[–] FancyLad@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago

You can do a vesc conversion on the cheap, there are kits out there. I spent two years amassing parts for my build and it made me feel like Tony Stark putting it together (and it worked).

[–] craigers@lemmy.world 6 points 3 days ago (1 children)

A switch 2. No regrets on that fat PP tho love that thing.

[–] toeblast96@sh.itjust.works 5 points 3 days ago

That fat PP looks a little on the short side.
