What is SpaceFN and why you should give it a try
The SpaceFN concept - setting up your space key as a layer switch when held - is probably one of the most useful tweaks in the keyboard hobby. Let me explain how it works. My SpaceFN article on kbd.news made some rounds recently - quite surprisingly given the age of this concept. This piece you're reading is a condensed version of the full post. If you're left with unanswered questions, you'll most likely find the info you're looking for in the original write-up. On my imaginary top list of the most useful keyboard features, tweaks and hacks, SpaceFN would deserve a podium finish for sure. But what makes it so special? In short: SpaceFN is easy to implement, easy to learn, costs nothing, can be used with any keyboard, and can improve your productivity instantly. I will list its benefits below, but can state right at this point that the SpaceFN concept, setting up your space key as a layer switch when held, is clearly one of the most useful tweaks in the keyboard hobby....

The mountain is close to the left side, not centered at all and the mountain top looks really cut off, much more than on the product pictures for some reason, even though I bought the SA version. In addition to that, the fog on mine is pretty much non-existent, at least under normal lighting conditions when not shining a spotlight directly onto it. I guess my mountain is enjoying a clear day without fog... The edges all seem to have different amounts of "roundedness" to it. Looks rushed to me.
Trying to recover from the first shock, but I'll probably contact Massdrop support to see what can be done about this...
I've ordered terrain resin caps before, so I'm not ignorant about build variation, but this isn't going on my keyboard.
