Both my caps broke within 24 hours. These aren't my first artisans, and I've worked with this exact material before - I know how fragile it is - and this is still unacceptable to me that the stems would be so thin.
If you'd like to try to fix your caps yourself, use extra thick superglue applied by a toothpick or wire on the edges of the broken piece, and then once it's in place spread a very thick layer over the exterior of the stem and set it with super glue activator. I haven't had any issues so far after fixing mine.
swellsThis helps me with a different cap I have which I paid much more for only to have it break in a few days, so thanks. (The artist gave me a full refund.)
swellsI've just received mine, the polishing on one of them is awful :( - Do you think i should preemptively apply strong superglue around the stem? Basically drown the stem in superglue? I noticed they haven't quite milled the cross dead center of the stem, and it's REALLLLY thin on one side - think that's where it will snap if its going to go...
tehmoooThat backspace key better be a permanent resident of whatever keyboard it is currently on, I guarantee the middle stem will snap right off just like the escape key if you even blow on it.
