Hey there!
So I'm relatively new to Mechanical Keyboards, got my first, ducky shine 5, mx Browns, just before Christmas.
Since then I've really enjoyed both the keyboard and the community.
Got myself some artisans, love the HKP caps, got a keycap set, managed to put my hands on some vintage boards, via a lucky Gumtree find, and started making some keycaps of my own.
I'm from Australia, Western to be more precise, so yeah Hi!
Some piccies, my board : http://imgur.com/XmlevIw
My vintage find: http://imgur.com/a/Wp5Ay
and finally my caps I've made. I'll be happy to chuck up some more pics as I make more, well as I photograph them, geeze I need a new camera. : http://imgur.com/a/anZ8E
Cheers guys

Hello fellow Australian, nice automatic salt and pepper shakers. They are the most laziest invention I have ever seen...........
Also are those model Ms? How many did you score?
PS i have those exact salt and pepper shakers.

Caps are easily replaced, you could get a set from Unicomp or random ones from Ebay. There is also clickykeyboards.com that sells individual caps. Are you going to bolt mod them for ****s and gigs? Seriously that is a good score I am jelly

Ah another aussie, welcome sir :)
Gorgeous caps, the 'no esc keys' are my favorite for damn sure! if you ever need someone to review these bad boys hit me up :D
Also you should suss the Artisan Services and check out what other people are making.
At this rate we will take over this forum in no time :)

Yeah I was pretty stoked with it!
To be honest I was originally going to sell them all but decided to keep one, because it's an 88 so early and if I get deeper into mechs I know I'll regret it if I don't keep one. So atm just sitting on it. Decide later.
Yeah I've been keeping an eye on artisan forums for a while now. Some amazing stuff there. Thanks! I like the no esc too, I've just sent some off today to be reviewed/critiqued. Waiting to hear the verdict. I'm still taking first steps but it's something I really enjoy.

Great googly moogly! Congratulations! Nice find indeed! I usually like plain caps, but I'll have to bookmark those No Escape caps for later :)

Welcome to Geekhack!
Nice find, especially the Model Ms!
What do you think of the MX browns now you're tried a few other keyboards?
And you made those other keycaps? Wow! Fantastic! Have you been doing it long? Those are very consistent and cleanly done!
I wonder if Elrick has seen the convict keycap :))
