From what I can recall I believe he said shears and a dremel were involved in modifying the QFR case.Thanks, that's a great KB. He'd also have to mod the plate. The case mod looked so clean it looks stock. I've wanted to see what that mod looks like for a while, and now that I see it, I don't have to do it myself :pI just need to decide if I will nod my skeldon top case or not.

Then you send it my way, unoab, for *ahem* special testing. Right?I like that board
I was serious when I said if I can get gloves from apathy3cs or otherwise, I'd review them while typing. Word is bond.
Does anyone who went to Keycon want to get interviewed for a Tactile?
why does my samurai sound like Japanese Batman?

Booper for surprising me with that intense hug at our goodbye in Galloping Ghosts. And for playing with me Metal Slug and Raystorm there. The veggie pizza was the best pizza and I can’t wait to have more vegetarian meals with you! And thank you for not freaking out on the L. All things considered, you handled it pretty well!
also, if by "handled it pretty well" you mean resolved to avoid public transportation for the rest of my life, then YES! I handled it pretty well! #togetherrrrrrr
Well, I finally made it back to Mississippi after my keycon/travel extravaganza! I had sooo much fun and it was so great to meet everyone that came out. I learned Geekhackers are real people! And they are super cool. I can't recall many other times that I've ever been around so many fun and interesting people at once!I'm bummed out that it's over but super happy I went. THANK YOOOOOUUUUU GUYYYSSSSS for being awesome!#togetherrrrrrr

(which I think is Evanston)
Though, just be happy it wasn't the Red line...that one has a special breed of people, funk, and stench on it. It's like a circus show at times.
Glad to hear you made it back safely from the long drive Booper.and yeah.... I avoid the mass transit as much as I can (half because motion sickness half because people), which makes it tough to go downtown.

I'd just like everyone to know that my Amazon home page is full of gloves now.

HUE.I wish I was able to have gone to Keycon...
Well Universal Studios is opening up Nintendo World so I was hyped. And they've already got Harry Potter world. I also heard Orlando is a convention town so a meeting space might work. So...the half joke half serious thing is that we're doing Keycon 2016 in Orlando. Ollivander's here I come.
Ok **** Florida. Dreams have finally come true. Keycon Int'l Edition: Seoul 2016
Mile High Club Hoff?
Friendly reminder to Keycon drivers to pay your tolls within 7 days. Cost me $7.90. http://www.illinoistollway.com/tolls-and-i-pass/unpaid-tolls/unpaid-toll-opening-page
In this case, 7.90 > 7x20...More importantly...it's only been 6 damn days?!...I gotta write my reflections already...

A few other things before I lock this thread:An imgur photo dump of everything I snapped a picture of while I was in ChicagoMy presentation this year titled: Alps Keyswitches 101I thought this might be especially useful for people who are confused about Alps and Alps mount switches (Please remember this is just my opinion):Show ImageMy presentation from last year titled: Metals and Metal Processing 101 - Keyboards. I said I'd share it and never did so here it is.
