Peripherals Mechanical Keyboards

That is what the previous few posts have been about.

 

You could buy 20 bags Glenn, and you won't be able to put together a full set. Any raised line or scooped caps e.g. F, J and numpad 5 won't be in there.

You do tend to get a handful of novelty caps though - I had about 8 Awesome Face caps amongst others, and quite a few RGB modifiers, but be prepared for a shedload of EPOS caps in there too.

It's not a gripe - I eventually fleabayed all my caps and two or three numpties got into a bidding war - in short, I made a killing.

 

Perhaps you can't put together a full matching set from SP crapbags... but some people have managed to cobble a set together in unicorn vomit in the past.

 

Thanks Dave, was not really into buying any as I am not into novelty caps, But thanks for the info, most useful.

 

I already got some crapbags on their way over I got them presale. Shipping to here is a killer though. I got one just for the lolz. and I will then try and sell them a la spreadie did with his and make a cool killing haha.

 

New mockups for Toxic look great!

 

Same here, everything is on it's way.
I expect pictures Margon.

 

JaccoW! I haven't tried a plate mod still

I am scared haha! Which stabs is it on the board in question? Cherry stabs on a leo space bar that are really close together (comparatively speaking to other space bars) is that right?

 

That would be quite close wouldn't it?

 

942 pages and counting....

I've a lot of reading to do....

Missing my Filco a bit but then I want something different! TKL/60% preferably....

Looking at some of the sigs and the Mech KB's in there and the number of boards, makes me go:

 

Shrop has some Pure Pro 60% boards at a great price. I'd pick one up myself but I've dropped a lot of money on Round 5 caps and they won't fit that board.

Personally I'm feeling the urge to self-build something, possibly a 40% board. Can't afford it for a while though.

 

Pure Pro or a Poker II would be great choices on the 60% front. Pexon/shrop's price is pretty decent!

 

Poker II is lovely, but they're pretty hard to find at the moment. There are some ISO variants floating about Amazon I think, though I don't know what it would be like buying from those sellers.

 

Exactly, that or a Keycool 87.

But I am waiting for a uTKL plate GB to come up. I could always give you something to practice on that way first.

 

What's it going to be for predominantly? For example I know some people that really don't get along with 60% boards for coding (I'd have no personal opinion on this but thought I should mention it). Also this will help with switch suggestions

 

HHKB! It has the best 60% Layout in my opinion.

 

Not for gaming - it's a terrible layout for gaming imo (the control position is fine for general typing etc but I still muscle memory to it being bottom-left...)

 

I love it for gaming, I have the CTRL in that position on al of my boards

 

Fair enough - I've been gaming for too long with the ctrl in the bottom left to adapt to it! The rest of the layout is fantastic though - looking forward to being able to make a GH60 with a sort of HHKB layout but with the control in the bottom left

 

Then that's not a HHKB!

I have always remapped CTRL in games as I find the modern position too far out of my home position.

Still loving the Type-S?
