So How do you like the feel, layout, price, features, keycaps, topre, and all that jazz?

I wonder how all of us are going to fill in the empty spaces in our GH60 when we all make HHKB replicas.


I am so jelly of all you guys and Cherry replicas!

They have a winkeyless kit.  The page up, page down, and delete keys are all the wrong profile, but I can't really tell.  The space bar is the 5.5 choc mini space bar, just paint brown.

As stated, yes, it is a choc mini.  I regretted buying because of the space bar until I realized, "Hey, I'm a modder.  I mod things:  Computers, keyboards, nerf guns, toasters, dogs.  Why not mod my space bar?  TO THE HARDWARE STORE!!!".  Not quite the right shade, but I still like it.  It is drying again now after a second coat of paint and a few coats of matted clear coat so it doesn't stick to my thumbs.  Sorry, someone takes interest in something I've done, and then I ramble.  And I'm still rambling.  I CAN'T STOP!!!

I soldered on some "Cyan" LEDs to my non-backlit KBT Pure. They look Cyan when they photograph on the potato, but in reality they are quite green. I ordered ones labeled Cyan, and they said the color was 505nm or something like that, same as the super expensive Cyan LEDs that people said they were ordering *shrug*

They are not actually cyan though, they are completely green in real life. I purchased 1000 of them so if you want 100 or so at a decent price send me a message.

It is actually pretty easy, changing around the spring placement and those plastic inserts for stability. You just have to open it up.

They look great in the photograph, but are actually green and not Cyan at all. Hope you like green because that is what I'm putting on your QFR unless you decide you want red, pink, or to wait for me to order another color.

Ordered a custom ISO layout Filco plate from The_Beast. Modded my Filco w/reds into an ISO layout Filco. Swapped red LEDs to blue LEDs. Replaced black case top with Multicam top.

This Cherry DS keyset was incomplete (from taobao via tinlong117, but I mainly bought it for the 1.5x mods), so it needs help.

I know this isn't reddit, but camo baby shoe FTW?

I see the joke, though there are some people here who can be completely clueless (not saying that I'm not sometimes), so I wanted to make sure.

Funny thing about that. My fingers are so used to ANSI, that I keep hitting only the small part of it. It may take a while before I can hit the part of it where my backslash normally is. :)

I just dislike the enter. Also the fact most keycap sets that go on sale here are for US layout keyboards.

Yeah, that is a pain... though what I tend do to is just invest in random ISO sets even if I don't have the full set so further down the line I have like random coloured shift and enter keys I can use with sets that are ANSI only lol

Finalized by QFR Ergo Clear Mod and Case Painting.

-MX Clear Switches w/ Blue Springs / Black Spring under the space bar - Panda!
-Yellow Switch Stickers / Green under the space bar
-lube with Super Lube Synthetic Grease and Teflon Silicone Oil
-blue painted QFR top cover
-SP black-on-white double shots from original crap bags / Moogle Kit, & RGBY modifiers

Took a while to complete due to life happening, but great feeling to have modding something you can't buy in stores.  Also, enjoying the ergo-clears so far!  At any rate, here are a couple of pics!
