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....

For the bagged, unsorted sets... yeah, it's definitely a concern. There are more opportunities for missing and duplicate caps. 2 weeks sounds a little tight. I would hope Massdrop could allow up to 30 days for people to receive and check their orders. This is especially true for keyboard products that might not get assembled and fully quality-checked for a period of months following a given group buy. Until we get a policy update, I'd suggest checking your drops very thoroughly as soon as you receive them just to be safe.
Chuck, if your set came from SP I'd suggest shooting an email off to Melissa to ask about a single-cap purchase. They might have a few spares if Massdrop isn't willing or able to help you.
" In the event a product exhibits a manufacturing defect or arrives damaged, Massdrop will allow members to return their product for a full refund. The issue must be reported to Massdrop Support no more than 30 days after the item is received. Claims submitted beyond this 30-day period will not be eligible for return.
No replacements will be sourced. " END QUOTE
Perhaps the support person you spoke to was mistaken?
