I just moved back in with family so I ordered a few things to set up a small workplace.

Black Parsons Desk
Paper Lamp
Poker MX Browns
Poker Mousepad [lol]
104 White Blank PBT imsto keyset
On-Stage LPT5000 Laptop Computer Stand

Hopefully WASD will get more blue o-rings in soon, despite my wallet hurting. XD

Ordered A KBT Pure Aluminum Case with green leds and mx blacks.
second mechanical i am super pumped
I was so close to buying one aswell. The non standard right shift key prevented me from buying it. X.x Maybe one day ill find a poker.. XD

i did i review in the review section if you want to check it out. i really, really like it. i am looking for a poker as well... but want blue switches so it might not be an option. i would consider the pure. very high quality board

GordonZed · « **Reply #858 on:** Mon, 11 March 2013, 00:07:02 »

That is absolutely gorgeous. I love the KBT style tray cases; I want a 60% so bad.

tricheboars · « **Reply #859 on:** Mon, 11 March 2013, 00:41:05 »

what other types of keycaps should i get with a 60% board and an aluminum case? i would like to get some dolch and black with huge white lettering but that seems impossible. i would also like to get some white poker pbt caps with the fn layer on them.

Yeah, grey and black pads included...
And yes, mainly gonna use em for DnB/Electro/Dubstep etc. (atm I use the Ultrasone HFI 580)
For the other stuff I have my old Sony MDR7506, Beyerdynamic DT770 / DT880, and my beloved Denon AH-D2000 (but one driver died recently *cry*)

Photekq · « **Reply #872 on:** Mon, 11 March 2013, 13:15:17 »

The universal TKL plate from WFD. Once this arrives I can start designing a case that's compatible with the filco and phantom (as well as any pcb/plate with the same mounts as the filco). I noticed that there isn't a single case available that offers 7bit, winkeyless as well as a standard layout so I'll try and make all three available.. maybe even a 7bit+winkeyless combo if anyone is interested..

Ditto! Considered getting the HD600 but ended up with the Beyerdynamic DT880.
But now I wonder what the HD598 sound like, they also look very nice...

Finally received em, and it seems I'm lucky...
I planed to use the black pads, and after opening the case I noticed instead of the grey pads they added another pair of black pads, yay! ^^
My first impression: 1. Wow, dat BASS! 2. Some EQ tweaking really improves the sound (drop at 100Hz, raise at 2k, slight rise at 9k) 3. Wow, dat BASS!!!

I have the equivalent Weller. When shopping for it, I admired the digital version, but I ultimately went with the version with the analog dial. I love it and I can't imagine what in the world makes the digital worth the money?. Who needs to know their tip temperature down to +/- 1 degree?

I actually prefer analog stations, my reasoning... A simple knob (directly turning a analog poti in most cases I guess) is probably less likely to break than the digital counterpart (LCD + dome or membrane buttons + some controller, all on a small PCB connected to a digital poti or whatever). Also, I don't see much potential for improvement on my Hakko, the analog FX888 is already more than what most people will need for DIY soldering applications.

I've had horrible luck with those vacuum plunger things; I'd give soldering wick a try. Maybe I just had a crappy one, but for me, the spring action of the plunger always moved the whole thing away from the joint I was trying to desolder.

Glissant · « **Reply #894 on:** Thu, 14 March 2013, 06:16:28 »

I had the same issue to begin with, GordonZed. After a while I figured that I was actually being too slow with the sucker. When I figured out that I need to be really quick the sucker worked amazingly well, and I am talking about a really cheap sucker xD.
I could never get a hang of using wick on switches. I'm sure I didn't drag the wick well enough or whatever. Plunger for the win.
