name update: GMK BLANK CHECK

[...] but I think EnjoyPBT/Gateron can be a better idea (PBT and less expensive).

At first I thought that as well and wanted to post about it, but then I saw that this should support R0 and R5 so, F-profile F keys and even A-profile 1.25u keys, which would be super nice.
Nothing for me though, I ...

no idea on pricing yet. i can't believe this hasn't been done (other than mondrian, for plank layouts).

hey guys, been a while :maverick:
i've been pretty busy with work and we all know DT is more active during EU hours... which is 12 hours off my current timezone. i miss yall!!

anyways... i'm collaborating with another kb community member on a new group buy that'll probably launch dec-jan on a full ...

this is a beautiful little keyboard. nice find!

The difference in key travel measurements is something I've been wanting to confirm for a while but unfortunately I don't have sliders to compare at the moment.

have you tried putting your silencing rings on type-S/purple sliders in place of the stock silencing rings?

Even more excited for my purple sliders to arrive now :)

Excellent writeuo, and very well illustrated. I've not quite been able to put together the "longer slider" thing visually until now.

glad to hear it! please let me know if there is anything unclear, or if you would like more details about ...

Ahh this is what you mentioned you were working on. Solid work sofar! To be honest I never felt the urge / need to silence any of my Topre keyboards but I do obviously know the Novatouch issue. The Type-S is the "proof" that the Topre switch itself has shortcomings / negative aspects such as the ...

Topre Slider Comparison

Or, What's REALLY The Deciding Factor In Silencing Topre Switches

by sth

To date, the common understanding of Topre silenced sliders has been that slider length is the primary factor in determining overall keyswitch travel distance. The reduction in travel when ...

Very solid information as usual thank you. I keep reading positive things about Gaterons and they are very much on my to-try list.
i swore off cherry last year but then i went and fucked that up by building a 60% with gateron yellows. they gave me some slight faith in mx-based keyboards again! if ...

it's probably far too late for my opinion to count but i like the TU2 mockups a bit more - they'd go well with my one MX set

love that huge-bezel design!

If I can't get pictures, Actually i'd prefer to get as many sliders of my own as possible to do all-at-once comparisons


I would also be interested in purchasing one of each slider type listed above as well as a novatouch slider and one of the ebay mx mount sliders as well. Wiling to pay up to $5 ...

Hi everyone!! Crossposting this from GH as the somewhat-academic nature of my goal might glean more response here.

I'm working on a little kb thesis regarding various Topre slider designs. Unfortunately I don't own a Type-S or a silenced Realforce, and I don't have my hands on JTK sliders yet ...

wowza! that Panasonic KX-E8283 is a dream.

Jesus, everyone is after the SKCM Salmon AT101's with Alps PBT.

I would want one but I have a Japanese AEKII thats going to be swapped with SKCM Cream (nondamp), so I already have my own Alps PBT/ Tactile Alps board on the way :lol: It should come on Monday.

i've never tried the at101 caps but i ...

Agreed, it is an apples-to-oranges comparison. I prefer to use beamspring at home where annoying others is not an issue. But at work, I go with the Realforce because of noise and it doesn't look like this giant crazy vintage keyboard.

Most of the development side of our office are using ...

hows europe? miss you guys. hope everyone is doing well.

the dutch are snickering

or that our police are murdering people? or that we're spending billions of your dollars fucking things up all over the planet?

I don't understand either of these points. Is upholding the law murder? I don't disagree with your second point, I just don't understand what you are referring to ...

Always refreshing to hear from someone else from Marietta, Georgia, who is not an insane Republican, like most of our neighbors.

It's those kinds of pejoratives that cast my statements earlier. Why is that necessary?

this is what upsets you?

not the fact that ...

My health insurance company offers a discount card (up to $25 per month) on certain foods at Walmart. "Just go online to sign up". OK, I went online, signed in, and the signup page for the discount card totally disappears. After 20 minutes of frustration, I sent them a nasty email. There is not ...

whatever you need, you got it man. you're in all our thoughts i'm sure.
