interesting, and very good to know :) I think I got the retooled editions myself because they appear to have none of the extended nubs on the stem, so lucky for me.

Someone on Geekhack bought a inexpensive metal keycap and used it to "reshape" the stem to size. Has anyone else tried this?
I wish we could just purchase replacement stems somewhere.

StariusI contacted nk asking if there was a way, dont think i ever heard back lol.
I saw some posts about the metal keycaps too but would be interested to see some more definitive results from that
Tedious but worth it. I found a 122 key IBM Model M and Acer mechanical this summer. I had to scrub ~348 keycap with a toothbrush
