Really debating on ordering one of these, $15 bucks for 90 switches is a good deal, although you obviously might get doodoo stuff. I just recently got into the hobby very lightly and wouldnt mind another switch to throw on the shelf over my setup or use good switches in my board.

It's not terrible. I use a separate numpad in the left with my 65-ish% currently and while it's still not native, I haven't gone through a spurt of using it consistently yet but don't think it's hard to deal with

Maybe someone in here can answer:

Is it possible to get a machined aluminum casing for it? Like, I send someone a CAD file and they mill it or manufacture it in the most appropriate way? Who offers such a service?

This former member of the 1800 club has moved on to self-designed split spacebar orthos.
They have all the same functionality of an 1800, including the numpad, but fit into a 60% case.

I play some World of Warcraft and tried some setups emulating the action bar with the keyboard placement, I have my normal keybinds in the regular areas but stuff that is less used would be ideal on a left facing 10-key.

my experience with the left macro column on my old logitech board has ruined any board with something further left than left ctrl, I constantly hit the bottom macro key because it's where ctrl feels like it should be

Yeah, I guess Tecsee are priced higher than I thought, and I did forget the Cream Dreams. Though the top tier of this batch of mystery switches still feels a little...thin...in terms of both probability and variety.

Also, were those from this current run of mystery switches? I thought they only came in packs of 90.
