It's an OTD 456 - red switches with black springs and lubed. It's a tasty keyboard!

Nah that's actually just a NERD TKL, so it is a GON yes

Built it for my friend the other week.

GeorgeK · « **Reply #212 on:** Fri, 14 November 2014, 11:50:14 »

New delivery today from Mr Margo himself - GON NerD TKL with lubed & stickered vintage blacks and orange LEDs both for the switches and sides LED

Looks particularly nice with some nice dyesubs on

Not original Cherry I hasten to add

A truly awesome job by Margo - really top notch work

Never really loved the colour orange, but DAMN, thats a nice looking board.

Margo does such awesome work.

Hey dude, do you have LEDs in stock? Looking for white ones for yet another project other than the switch swap I will be sending your way soon

Ah I see! Sorry, yes, clear tops, pink stickers. Linear grey's with 62g gold springs. Lubed with thin lube and korean spring oil.

I think these are potentially the best switches I've modded/lubed, I'm not saying any I've done in the past are bad, but these just seem sublime, though I've not capped the board as it's not mine, and I've already re-wrapped it in soft stuff, so you'll have to ask b7ad in a little while

radio_killah · « **Reply #226 on:** Wed, 18 February 2015, 16:03:12 »

Whose idea was it to use clear tops with colored stickers? Awesome idea that turned out really well... Now I feel like an idiot for buying black stickers.

It will literally be a 6 week-ish wait until I get time to build it - but if you don't mind waiting, then I can

Yea that's fine. If you're still in Brighton I may be able to get a friend to drop it off if that's ok. I need lube, white switch LEDs, switch stickers (don't mind colour) and clear switch tops, do you have any of those on hand?

This sounds very promising!

you are the crazy keyboard wizard of the west after all. I have heard many good things about your switch tuning skills!

these were for one of my boards, but I had a problem with the stickers brad sent, which were admittedly better - so I offered him these instead as I'm never going to get round to stickering a board for myself

I'm not sure where these came from, well I got them from bunny, but this was last year some time, maybe even longer ago.
