Post your keyboard/keycaps!

[HzFaq]

I find that it can sometimes be tricky to get switches lined up that are in positions that have more than one option (bottom row and shift keys especially), it took forever to get the right shift lined up correctly on my PCB mount GH60. Any other unevenness I've found is usually because the switch isn't fully pressed into the plate/PCB.

Great looking board though, despite the wonky N .

At least you're not the guy (me) that soldered plate mounted switches on a pcb. I noticed right away that they're not aligned but I kept going until I was finished then I asked around how to align them. Desoldered them the next day and replaced them with pcb mounted switches.

this is how it looked :

This looks great. What switches do you use on this?

[Khers]

So I have finished yet another 60% build!

This one has a bit of a blue theme:

And of course has blue backlight:

Here's a view of the case, I bought it from Taobao and am really happy with the quality and how it looks:

Just noticed while taking the pictures that the N key is wonky, now that's going to really bother me every time I look at it

That is one pretty keyboard! Too bad the black/grey/silver ones seem to be out of stock at the moment.

Thanks. Its mx red for mods and gateron browns for alpha's.

[GEIST]

This looks amazing. Do you have some more, maybe brighter, images?

Thank you. I already wondered, why you post such a nice mod and no one comments on it.

Finally found a purple blank 1u GMK Keycap (thank you HzFaq ):

[HzFaq]

Looks great dude, nice work.

[derzemel]

Looks great dude, nice work.

Thank you, thank you

[ramnes]

You forgot the rainbow keycaps, bazh.
How do you like that case?

And derzemel, nice! In my opinion it would look even better with a black spacebar and black arrows.
Your caps seem to have a weird texture for Cherry keycaps. Did you sandblast them or what?

[Prelim]

@ramnes, they're just new doubleshots I guess (btw, looks great that purble combo @derzemel )

I will take a picture with the black space and arrows too
The Keycaps are a set of GMK doubleshots and are brand new (this is the first time I have used them). I got them a few months ago on ebay from a German seller that has been selling random GMK stuff from time to time (Shopon854)

Thank you!

Lol I totally forgot about the rainbow keycaps, would be fancy but not sure I want to deal with POM again

The case is a bit high but nothing a palm rest couldn't solve otherwise I like it, light enough I can carry around when school time's back

Latest addition to the stable:



Got the board off of DanT and added the case and caps. Whenever HADapter & HADditionals comes in, this will go full HHKB

[nickheller]

Very nice, I really like the purple plate!

[Stabilized]

Wow, love the purple accent on the build! Out of interest, what case are you using for it?

[Khers]

Thanks guys! As it happens, I like the purple as well . I'm using a cheap plastic case off of aliexpress. This one to be precise. It's a bit hollow-sounding for my taste, but that should be easily solvable with some shelf liner or similar.

Painted a mediocre Lexmark Model M today, added an industrial black badge, put on some white key caps and this is the result

Let me know what you think

Still getting used to the layout. Otherwise, a really nice board.

Great capture, the lightning is gorgeous! I like that purple plate in between the beige caps.

[Khers]

Thanks, Madhias! Such kind words from a photography master such as yourself are really warming and made my day!

Nothing to match the photography skills present here, or the cool custom builds, but here's my gaming board. I'm going to be finishing up Witcher 3 Blood & Wine and playing the new Deus Ex with this little baby. This is definitely the smoothest MX Browns board that I have.

Is that a Varmilo board? I am guessing from the almost floating key design, and the caps look like they are by Varmilo too.

[scottc]

Argh, the Witcher 3. 130 hours of my life. Still haven't finished the Blood & Wine sidequests.
