What is this "Electronic Bay" that you speak of?

Hahahaha, eBay. I checked with the seller already, they said those were the only ones they had and they don't specialize in keyboards or anything like that. There are some interesting old boards on there though, I saw a really cool raytheon one, but a lot of the cooler looking ones are pretty pricey, and some that aren't it's hard to tell if they're worth getting anyway since shipping an old board is likely to cost at $20-30.

Yea, I kinda figured that's what you were talking about. Just never heard anyone refer to it that way before. And yea, I've been checking around there for old stuff but I have to refrain for now since I just joined a few GB's recently and I'm waiting for those projects to show up.

Frickin' beamsprings or typewriters cost $40-$50 to ship through ebay (I saw an 'Ambassador' typewriter that would cost $80 to ship

). Love the keycaps on that 60% with the acrylic case btw. The white spacebar/cream colored modifiers are definitely a nice finishing touch

Damn! I'm close to selling my MX board but now I really want to make a new one, just like yours. What is that board if I may ask?

P.S. Tried finding the perfect Johnny Bravo gif and thought that I need to watch it again. It was a great cartoon when I was young. Sexist but cool.

Oh, on a side note - thanks for the help with shipping rates. Got it sorted out.

Actually, this looks like it could have been cut from a 1980s PC World magazine. I guess it depends on what you want your photo to say to the viewer?

A few questions.
1) That TKL in wood case: Do you have a build log for that one?
2) What's the black board? Jane CE?
3) Do you use a converter for the M0116 or is it just for show?

1. its a realforce 87UW in a digilog guillotine case
2. LZ-FE with a diffuser
3. M0116, handwired, and at the time hasu didn't have support for newer teensies. Can read about it here https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=71890.10

Unicorn Vomit (DCS Profile)

Got a grab bag from someone on r/mechmarket this week and was able to scrounge together a set of DCS keycaps. I have enough for a full size ANSI keyboard, but I only own 60% boards

Some highlights: 3x R1 glow in the dark, 1x miscolored (Escape), 1u and 1.25u translucent keys.

If anyone has some extra colorful DCS keycaps they're willing to let go of let me know, I'm looking to flesh this set out a bit more and maybe replace some of those Windows keys...
