My Introduction!
« on: Wed, 29 October 2014, 15:21:35 »
Hello!

Originally I browsed /r/MechanicalKeyboards in my free time, but recently I decided to order an actual mechanical keyboard and dive further into the hobby. I ordered a bare WASD V2, which I have received, and Leopold PBT front-printed key caps that have not come in yet, but should soon.

I am at a boarding school studying Computer Science and go home to visit every few months. So far I've used a few old IBM rubber-dome keyboards, and currently I am using this Dell keyboard until my key caps come in. http://cdn.overclock.net/8/86/860645cd_38550_xlargenss_ndo4190.jpeg

/r/MechanicalKeyboards seems decentralized because of Reddit's structure, and I really like the community here, so I decided to become a part of it. From the start of browsing I've been really intrigued by artisan key caps and I am attempting to make my own with paint, and I may venture into molding in the future.

So hello! Hopefully this'll be fun!

Welcome to Geekhack! Sounds like you made a solid first choice with the WASD V2. Hopefully you'll post pictures when everything comes in :). Hope you enjoy your stay here.

No, I'm a junior in high school. You can check out my school here. http://www.lsmsa.edu/

It's pretty cool, but almost a little too hard for me sometimes. I feel way out of my league here! If you have any questions, just ask. Thanks for welcoming me!
