Looking for Alice...
« on: Sun, 09 June 2024, 16:03:55 »
I'm getting back into the keyboard hobby, which I haven't been in for a couple of years. I currently type on a rewired and KINT adapted Kinesis Advantage, and have also built a Ferris Sweep. I use a Dvorak layout and am considering Colemak, so I'm interested either in dual-legend D/C keycaps or blanks, though I prefer the look of blanks. Thick PBT or whatever. I also just preordered an Alice keyboard, so am looking for keycaps with the 2.25/2.75 spacebars.

Keyreative blanks have a bunch of color options in 1.25mm thick ABS. Their kitting isn't well documented, at least from a quick search. I don't use PBT so I don't know too much about blanks in that material.

Welcome to Geekhack :)

For blanks with alice support, can't go wrong with ranked pom, it's not abs or pbt but they are pretty well made and have that kitting support.

cherry blacks - unlubed - filmed and springswapped with tx 55g mediums - alu Plate | pretty happy with this, the blacks were cherry picked so they weren't that scratchy to begin with, but currently breaking them in, may lube them with a dry lube like ro59 or ptfe powder.

lubed with tribosys 3203 | like topre a lot, prefer it lubed but did make less tactile but that might have been a skill issue. probably will get more tactile over time as the domes age.

bad orange alps lol | definitely needs a restoration. planning on wax boiling them and maybe a replacement pcb because the board has only 2 key rollover apparently.

gateron yellows - lubed with 205g0 - 62g tx mediums - pc plate | probably my favourite keyboard already, feels super nice and sounds pretty good, it's got a great layout as well. probably gonna build this with mx browns, I feel like it would suit the board more.

stock with silent reds | Pretty cool looking board, the silent reds are actually good, they are smooth and I don't mind the mushiness (it's not even that mushy as well). the layout is pretty weird, but is useable. will probably mod this in the future. maybe a pcb and plate swap, change the keycaps to something dolch like, and also spring swap the springs in the silent reds.

Thanks. Yes I've looked at Ranked. They have some nice Cherry profile keycaps, and that POM translucent one is pretty interesting.
