Hi all!
I guess I will join the chorus of new voices here on geekhack.
A couple months ago, I wanted a new keyboard. Things really took off from there. I've been playing around with TONS of stuff, buying keyboards and keycaps, etc. Just today I upgraded some stabs to some Durock V2s, lubed them, etc. I have my first solder kit on the way, too!
Anyway, I've been in the hobby for maybe 2 months or so, and I'm really excited to keep it going. I'm a software engineer, so eventually I hope to do a full custom build, potentially with custom firmware as well for the sake of it.
I'm a big fan of the clicky switches (though, I'm typing on some Gateron Ink Yellows at the moment - I really like these). Box Jades for the win!
