Greetings, all.
Very glad to be on here, finally. Been lurking for a little while picking up bits and bobs of juicy info. I'm really impressed by the awesome community and all the cool toys being built and I figured it was time to make my account and join in. Mostly, I will really appreciate being able to talk to others about keyboards without their eyes glazing over after about the second sentence.
I bought my first commercial mechanical keyboard a few months ago; Cooler Master QuickFire Rapid-i with Cherry MX Blues. Pretty nice upgrade for me but I quickly learned about those little key dampeners and I installed the 0.2mm ones. Then, I tried a set of blank DSA keys--I haven't decided if I prefer the DCS caps yet. After a month or so of hunting for parts and hmming and hawing about my plate DXF, I came to realize that getting keycaps is about a zillion times simpler if I don't wish for anything strange like "sets that come with 1.75 shift keys" or "DSA profile keys with support for backlighting". I know I still have a lot to learn about keyboard stuff.
I'm pretty comfortable with LibreCAD and I'll *definitely* get around to learning KiCAD sometime. Maybe OpenSCAD too.
And now, my journey begins...
So... anyway... Howdy, folks!
