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.

First of All, The exquisitely CNC machined case. - It minimizes empty spaces in the case itself a d gives you a solid and nice feel that you will never get with your Corsair K70, Ducky Zero Shine or Whatever keyboard you can buy in a shop. And the lubbing work. - FREAKING TIME CONSUMING and it could be even messed up if you try to lub cherry mx switches first in your life. It needs some skill. If you lub your switches too much, it will give you a stuffy key feel and If too little, you can`t get rid of the noise that the springs, stabilizers and sliders make. If I try to lub the switches first, I will never do it myself. PPL who have ever lubbed cherry mx switches before wouldn`t think this price is unreasonable.
