Title: My Gon Nerd 60 build
Post by: MAR82 on Tue, 27 January 2015, 07:37:00

I just wanted to show off my latest build.
It's a Gon NerD 60 PCB
- Gon switch plate
- Tex case
- Cherry MX White switches
- Clear switch covers
- UV-A Blacklight LEDs

I really have to say that I'm loving it. It's just a shame I can't use it for gaming

That looks pretty damn awesome. Not a huge blacklight fan but for some reason I really love it on this keyboard.

I'm doing a similar build, but I'm trying to put LEDs inside the switch itself (take advantage of the trans covers).  Wonder how it will look with an acrylic plate.

I'll love to see how you'll put the LEDs into the switches, and if it looks good or not. Please keep us updated
