Awesome!

Btw, the otd guys are showing mixed reactions to the dye-sub blues. Some like it and thinks it's cool, some think the blue is too strong and the background should have been some lighter color.
Anyway, I like it. Here are some pics that I took.. applied them on a custom keyboard.

Haha same here. I'd actually probably prefer a "red alert" in PBT, but my wallet is crying!

FWIW, I think keyboards as a hobby is far cheaper than a lot of other hobbies, say sports cars, wines, remote controlled expensive moving things, mistresses, etc.  So $90 for a set of keycaps is not too bad.  That is what I tell my wife: "you better be glad that I have keyboards and not a mistress."  ;-)

I sure do. 26" leg opening is very useful when you're buying melons.

When my friend quit marijuana, he used his to grind tobacco. It's ironically the same use they're sold for is those shops, where they have an attitude of "yeah, you can totally use these apparatuses for legal tobacco".

Is there anyone who can measure the thickness with a digital caliper? These keys look thicker than KBC keys.

Oh man, I've loved those Korean customized keyboard for a loooooong time but never get the chance to touch them. Those keyboards on OTD are just extraordinary.

The ergodox is aiming for a similar level of quality.

That said, I really want one of those custom 'boards too.
