Interesting stuff.  My particular brand of OCD would make me map pgup and pgdn to the keys with those legends  :))

Hey,
I was looking for the 1800 numpad layout
google associated to dolch keyboard and booooomm here I am on your blog with the Lz Mini hitting the headlines!
very nice keyboard as it seems to be a rule on your blog

Btw if you have some spare 4:20 awesome caps I would trade my bat car for that (I desire them even more now I know what 420 stands for!),
I'd like to make number row happy on my poker

PS: can we be advised of updates? didn't find a place to leave my email

Looks like Google is doing a fine job then =)

The 4:20 keycaps have been long sold out and in fact, I only have 1 for myself while many others have 3+!  However, there may be future runs of this keycap so please stay tuned.

For updates, you can simply 'Follow' my blog by signing up at wordpress.com with an account.  Otherwise, you'll see most of my updates either on GH, r/MechanicalKeyboards or KBD.  Else, you can always just click the link in my sig periodically.  I usually update every 1-2 weeks with some new content.

Is it me or does the LX mini case looks like it can fit a Choc mini too because of the layout ?

I won't like, your blog was a big reason why I made the jump from lurker to member. The details are always nice. But those pictures! They're always so nice. I spent so much time drooling over your RA keycaps w/ the red modifiers.

Anyways, great review, thanks for writing it up.

It will probably "fit" per dimensions but likely wont screw in properly since the plate and everything was designed to slot into a mx mini pcb :/

May also keep an eye on the making stuff together thred.  The GH60++ supports the same layout and aluminum cases may follow.  They wouldn't be an LZ, but still a nice custom.  Large amounts of patience, though.
