mmm sexy!

was alot more flimsy then i thought it would be from all the photos i've seen of it, coming from a giant suitcase of a thing i figured it would be beefy as.

All cleaned up. looking good!


now the board i was planning on putting this dolch set onto..

All Red, Full Plate Cheat.
60g vintage cherry mx black / stickers / fully lubricant / ps2 type


instead i went with the RA set with QWERY keys function row.

to say i love it is an understatement, other then the mutant bottom / modifier row which will be fixed when my Tsangan set gets here, it is beautiful and i now am torn between weather to put the Dolch set on it or not

on to the photos

@ rayuki ... Nice haul. VERY nice keyboard. Are you going to leave it PS/2 or switch it over to USB?

John

im really not sure yet john i havn't been able to get at it because i've been to busy to go and buy an allen key small enough to fit lol (i have about 800 allen keys in the garage and of course not 1 is small enough)

i want to give it a go though at some point if i ever get 2 days off in a row lol.

also yeah the caps lock is off my jelly pom kit because its the only off center one i have other then the dolch and i figure it fits in better. (forgot to take a pic of the light, its blue led under the caps lock :)

still its getting close to being at a point i can call it finished lol.

Shame the Dolch doesn't work on the Cheat. You can sell the keys to me if you don't have a board to put it on :)

I like the way the caps look, but i dont like the layout of the board or the fact its not ISO.
