Title: Hello from Seattle!
Post by: endowestern on Thu, 11 June 2020, 16:40:34
Hi everyone!  I am Travis (Endowestern)! 

I am just getting into custom keyboards after being a big computer enthusiast for many years.  I am a father of 2, and we have 2 goldendoodles! 

I started with pre-built mechanical boards for gaming (Corsair K70, Razer Huntsman Elite), and then moved to a Ducky One 2 Mini and put that in a KBDFans Aluminum case.  I just built a Rama, but could not get used to the HHKB layout so I sold it

Look forward to chatting with you all!

Wow you sure are young to be on a forum. Your parents look like nice people. :P

Does the Ducky feel any nice in the fancy case?

Hahaha well played!

The ducky feels good in the case.  Gives a nice weight to it!

Hi Travis! I'm also new to the hobby and a Seattleite!

I'm in the hot-swap phase where I keep trying out new switches, keycaps, and layouts to see which I enjoy the most. I think that so far I enjoy my plank the most, it's an extremely small ortholinear keyboard.

Are you waiting on anything in the mail?  ;)

Best,
Eyal
