Title: Just got and set up my brand new Filco with Thick PBT caps!

Here it is folks! I need to get a cooler escape key (think I may have found a batman one) but this is pretty much what its going to look like until I get the thick PBT plain black caps and my custom cord. I thought I wanted an aluminum case for this thing but this plastic is thick and amazing. Its built like a tank. I think I'll hold off on an aluminum case until I get a korean custom. The only issue I'm having now is with the stabilizer keys. I feel like they keep getting stuck and just aren't responding the way they should be. I got the thick krytox lube in the mail today too, but I feel like I shouldn't have to lube them to get them to work properly. Anyway - without further adieu !

After getting PBT caps for my QFR, I don't think I'll like typing as much on anything else (but I haven't tried double-shot caps, yet). Nice choice.  :thumb:
