and also wound up winning one of the ones OfTheWild posted above, along with a cable from donutcat, at the NC meetup yesterday.

Finally got a forum kit from r1 to finish off my Jukebox build.



Also, hadn't realized that the red color changed from r1 (top) to r2 (bottom). At least the aqua is the same (blue, green, whatever-the-**** color it is).

Tbh from the small amount of typing I've done I still prefer SKCM browns. On the plus side SKCM browns are much easier to find and cheaper.

Got my second HHKB Pro2 Type-S keyboard set. So now I don't have to carry it all the time to the office and back.

I ordered it through a proxy from Amazon Japan. It got stuck some days in customs. I was afraid that they will send it back to the proxy. The HHKB does not have the CE marking needed for the European Economic Area. But luckily it got through customs. The best thing about it is they did a mistake. They read the total invoice amount wrong. They lowered it tenfold. And not only that they forgot to include the shipping costs in the taxes too. I paid almost no taxes. :D


Now that I have a good foundation I can focus on my next project. Modifying my Leopold FC750R. I want to desolder it. And put some stickered and lubed ergo clears into it.

Congratulations on the low taxes. :D I only can imagine how much really it would've been in Germany. Probably a bit under half the price that whole package.

Not that much! For keyboards you only have to pay the import turnover tax (Einfuhrumsatzsteuer). And this is actually the same as the value added tax (VAT) of 19%. But you have to pay it for the sum of the invoice total cost and the shipping costs.

So nice of the customs guy who read the total invoice costs wrong.

Also keep in ind you need Wii U and Zelda TP HD for it, to use that amiibo to its full potential. And that is by now is the most valueable amiibo for BOTW.

Got this today! A bit disappointed though... My expectations were too high.. I have the Realforce RGB (been using it for the last 3 days) and I prefer it than this HHKB Pro 2 (not as tactile, too soft for me). But I'll keep it as part of my traveling kit.
