I think the problem might be sound, because the spacebar (and pcb) would be right on top of solid material and the sound can escape to the front. I guess it’ll sound very flat and no one wants to spend 300 bucks on a bad sounding spacebar.

I just started soldering. It’s not too difficult and super useful. Also adds a lot of options that are usually cheaper than hotswap.

A pinecil is 25$. add another 25 for solder, flux, a pump and copper desoldering braid and you’re set up.

I found hotswap is increasingly difficult to get once you’re looking for non-massmarket stuff outside of 60 or 65 keebs with ANSI Layout.

It’s just faster to solder than to search for non-standard hotswap.

And with millmax, you can make any solderboard hotswap if you fancy.

that really is a nice typewriter. I wonder if that spacebar integration can be done on mx as well, because it’s looking really good.

Afaik Drop sets are exclusives. You may have a good chance finding those 2nd hand on mechmarket though. Maybe even for less than 100$.

I built it in the german layout i’m used to because i went all in on Art Nouveau (hope i spelled that right). Including the novelty, this is base- and 4 childkits 🫥

See other comments.

I’d like to add that 3U spacebars are available with 2U and 3U stabilizers. Make sure you have the correct wire size.
