I'm doing the same mod this week! Can't wait.

Best of luck! I hope you get it done swiftly and without issue. It's an excellent mod once it's done. During; not so much.

That can be said about any mod haha

The rubber band mod is extremely easy to do and does just about the same thing .

Yes you can, just put yours on backwards as well. It's personal preference, but many people think it feels better that way.

VesperBro, I don't have the audio setup to do a sound recording, and I am unable to compare it to another RF 87U, so I'm not sure if it would add anything.
I will however record a couple of videos and see how it goes. The rattle being gone is the best part of the mod for me; the silencing is just an added bonus. You should really do the mod if you have the time and will to punch all those buggers

Ah~ There is no pressure here, good sir! However, if you get the chance, I'd be more than willing to watch That rattling part is very intriguing. Ughh!!! The temptation is strong. Will consider greatly. Only thing holding me back is that I like it how it is, and it's hard to imagine it getting any better but many people have said it is...

Got the HHKB in the mail today and the Realforce I have had for about a week. Now I'm done buying keyboards and I'm going to sell my cherry boards.

I believe you when you said you are done with keyboards.

It's just that you will start collecting clacks and brobots and gasmask. They look really well in Topre boards, you know!

not really saying goodbye, just sticking her in a drawer for a while. Picked up a KB Paradise v60 with MX greens and a keyset/case, gonna test drive that for while :P

[esoomenona]

Ah, then it's not goodbye, it's just see you later.

Yeah, mang. I personally prefer one red on esc but with those two sick caps, it only makes sense to use both :P I probably would've done the same ! love eeeeeet.

You just need some proper dye AFAIK, but I'm not going to risk it, this is my only blank set. :P

I'm well aware, I've RIT Dyed before, but if I found someone more confident than me, I'd just let them do it (P.S. -I was going to buy a blank set to sacrifice)

Apparently RIT changed their formula and no longer works well with PBT.  So we have to either find their older inventory or try another brand (some have mentioned 'iDye').

See this thread:
http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=56376.0;topicseen

Also o2dazone had a thread somewhere with some tips on how to apply dye to caps.

I got an extra set of blanks and a set of throwaway PBTs to try it on, but I haven't gotten the dye yet and want to do a little more research first. :)
