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....

Dear MassDrop, I asked before if the previous issue/s were ironed out, seems they aren't. The cap as it stand now is unusable due to the horrible short depth in the stem. While I like this cap a lot, it's just not worth it when there are plenty of 3D cap makers who produce far better quality caps for cheaper. I am curious if someone isn't doing their job? Who approves this after having put in on a keyboard, took pictures for the drop and clearly they knew it wouldn't seat right and can fall off if pressed? It is unacceptable.
PS Do not do this drop until you resolve this major and I mean glaringly horrible problem. Now I have to go get my dremel dirty to dig a deeper hole in the stem. Am I getting paid for this extra effort to make something work as it should out of the box? No. And I want 3D caps to succeed but they won't if you give them a bad name here.
