How to sell things on Drop & How Drop charge them?
Hi , this Kyle from China. Since a month ago, my team wanted to build a brand to produce the high quality of mechanical keyboard and headset to sell aboard. Now we already got the license to do so, and we can't wait to bring our products to meet everyone. But the products are still in the period of designing, it would take some time :( There are some questions we can't find the ways to solve - how to sell keyboard on Drop, and the details about how Drop charge per product? - Actually I sent an email to Drop Studio for some questions, but I didn't receive the answer.( Drop Studio also mentioned that they can contact me only if they were interested in my design / products ). So I'm here ask for help. If anyone can answer my question, I would really appreciate it :)

Perhaps if one uses springs that are half the force of a regular one, but I'm not aware of such low force springs, and they also potentially introduce the problem of sticking due to insufficient force to overcome upstroke friction. Maybe with a lot of lube... :p
I contemplated to 3d print an 2x stem, drill/remove the 3x stem holders from an 2u backspace key, glue my 3d printed stem, however after testing the idea a bit, I came to the same conclusion as Parak, it's too stiff, it's too stupid, using a 1u Del is more logical
However, my latest idea eased my mind a lot, it's possible to drill in between the two 1u keys, and put a switch in between, then connect that switch to one of the 1u keys with wires (drill the pcb, discard the plate)
This requires a custom plate tho, however it seems easily doable, I started 3d printing plates to test the idea a bit
I guess a more logical path is to drill the pcb, but get the plates manufactured instead of printing them
If the pcb-drilling works, getting the plate done is the easy part, this might actually turn out to be a great mod for 2u lovers like me :)
If anyone else is interested, we might combine our efforts, get the plates manufactured together
