Hey there! Welcome to GeekHack!

Seems like you've already drunk the Kool-Aid and accepted Topre into your life. Nicely done.  :))

What sort of group buys and/or artisans are you looking for?

Yessir, mainly interesting keysets right now, GMKs, etc.  I'm in for Ivan's PBT Dark.  But I'd need an MX board again, so maybe a custom build in the future?

I got in for a few reaper classics, pretty happy about that.  Would love to get a reaper v1 eventually.  My account register date leaves me out of this Clackvent unfortunately, but it's cool to see how it goes down.  HWS/Binge's work is stellar.  Entered for a toper Kosmonavt as well.  All kinds of stuff going on.

Yeah, this has been a busy couple of months all around. You could always get Topre-MX sliders for your boards and not have to get an MX keyboard. Though I hear custom builds are really nice, and lots of fun.

Reasonably for a single key maybe, but a bit impractical for an entire keyboard ;)

Welcome to Geekhack!

Nice couple of keyboards :)  If the white FC660C had been available a couple of years ago I probably would have ended up with one of those instead of my HHKB.

Did you buy the black keycap set for your white HHKB?  Or did you buy it as it is depicted?

I thought I should mention some users take Nova Touch sliders to mod their keyboards to be fully Cherry MX compatible. Way cheaper than $6 per key (but only TKL and smaller obviously)  ;)

Figured I'd do one of these, just to say hi. 

I'm from Northern Kentucky, I can walk to Cincinnati, OH from my current apartment.

Started off with MX Reds -> MX Clears; now onto topre.  Currently using a HHKB Pro 2 and FC660C.

Mainly here to hang out and check out groupbuys/artisans.

Hey, thanks.  I might move on from FC660C already, just like the HHKB more.  I bought the black keycaps separate and sold the white ones.  Already looking to get some white printed ones back though haha.

Quite a few people have FC660C and love it.  But many of those who have an HHKB too say they prefer the HHKB.

Btw Elite Keyboards has white printed HHKB keycaps in stock: http://www.elitekeyboards.com/products.php?sub=access,toprekeys&pid=pdkb400ktw
