Title: Happy New Year GH. What is your 2016 Keyboard Goal?
Post by: mrlooolz on Sun, 03 January 2016, 02:51:17
hi Geek Hack! I thought it would be fun to share with everyone what keyboard you have your eye set on for 2016. It can be old, current or upcoming!

Personally, My first MK will be here end of Jan and the white fox in April. If all goes well I think I wanna jump on Topre next christmas!

To try SKCM Orange, SKCM Black and click modded Oranges. Also to find these boards to try Omrom B3G-S switches:

Focus FK-555 Cyan Omron B3G-S series
NTC KB-6251 Amber Omron B3G-S series
Chicony KB-5161A Amber Omron B3G-S series

Eventually will try Topre, although i cant decide on HHKB vs HHKB JIS, vs FC660C, vs Realforce 104.

You sure know how to pick em!

Probably one more 60% then I'll call it a year. :D
Reason being I have an alu case lying around somewhere but still undecided on the switches yet. Clicky or tactile? I'm done with linear for the moment.  :)

Post by: derb2k2 on Sun, 03 January 2016, 08:38:18
firstly, to obtain a carrying case for HHKB since I'm carrying it around all the time now for use with my Surface Pro3.

Most importantly, build my first board from the ground up. I will get to this in the Summer since I'm booked up for all of the first quarter this year.

Cheers GeekHacker's, and I hope you guys reach your goal!

I want to do something, that I neglected in 2015: get rid of nearly all my keyboards, and start over from scratch. I'd like to try and perhaps keep only a few very specific boards:

Finish the two terminal boards I have left to do, and finish a 1391401 with that APL set I have left over when my nephew was using the 1394204 keyboard.  Then I am pretty much finished.

...and one more project left over from last year.  Parts is parts, as they say.

To start experimenting with making my own keycaps, had some design ideas between my partner and I that we'd like to make a reality. From there, make my own keyboard (for the most part).

To stop using my right index finger on space, with the way I type I'm convinced 142wpm is my absolute limit.

I'd like to learn DVORAK as well :V

I'd like to try out Topre. Still undecided of going Novatouch way (because of the keycaps options) or an actual full-Topre board (Leopold, maybe?). SO MANY options, so little money.

Also, waiting to see what happens with Wooting keyboard.

With Canadian dollar so low + shipping + customs, those rings cost quite a lot here like pretty much half price to another Realforce.

But I still want to get to it eventually.  :thumb:

I have no keyboard goals for 2016 and the reason is simple. Topre. At this point in time, since I own three RF 87Us and an HHKB, any other keyboard is just a waste of money.


I preface the above by saying 'at this point in time'. If Cherry were to come up with something other than their sand-filled crap switches, I'd be all over Cherry. I'm not a Topre fanboy. Just a fanboy of the best switch available today. Cherry isn't it.

damn... I feel that way about alps since I can't find many boards with sought-after switches that are new.


I'm sorry to say that I've not had the pleasure of trying Alps. I see a lot of guys speak very highly of them here. I'll eventually give them a try and would be happy to jump the Topre ship if I liked them better. I'm not a Cherry hater. I'm just frustrated that they've not really innovated anything in years. Cherry MX is like the Windows 95 of keyboard switches.

At this point in time, I guess it does. But at least I'm not beating my drum preaching the Cherry MX agenda that has no basis in reality.

Have you ever customized Cherry switches? That's the beauty of it since there is several options in terms of linear or tactility, then there is even more options in terms of spring weights, and even though this doesn't apply to everybody but they offer very good backlighting. Cherry switches takes a lot more trying to find the perfect switch for yourself, new switches by themselves are horrible imo. Judging by your hate towards Cherry I can not help but think all you did was buy a ****ty mass produced keyboard and then hate it.

55g or hhkb

Im leaning toward RF 55g more, i may have to buy both RF 55g and RF 104UB-DK so i can get the awesome keycaps it has

Those caps are sweet!  JIS seems too complex for me

Ill go with the RF 104UB-DK first then the RF 55g, i gotta have those caps. I need to find a proxy first though, it will cost $275 + $55 for shipping + however much the proxy fee is.

Theres this version also

I've owned/used Das Ultimate in brown and blue, Filco TKL in both brown and blue, CM in red and brown, other crap in red. Basically, all I've experienced in Cherry is blue, brown and red.

Agreed. I really enjoy my HHKB for typing. However, for coding I prefer my 87Us.

I've owned/used Das Ultimate in brown and blue, Filco TKL in both brown and blue, CM in red and brown, other crap in red. Basically, all I've experienced in Cherry is blue, brown and red.


My conclusion? Cherry MX sucks like a cheap wh1ore with a chipped tooth.

Sadly, youve had crap keyboards with the worst of the cherry switches in them. Can't really judge Cherry as a whole until you've had boards with all of their switches  :thumb:

So...already made the goal for my g80-1800 happen. Still in China, but it's on the way! The best part is now I can sit back and just watch everything sell (or better idea, stay away from classifieds).

But 2017, year of the 356 or ANSI ErgoPlus! or maybe a Nixdorf Softkey...I can dream can't I? hue hue hue

My highest priority goal of 2016 is actually to go around and flip everyone's flipped space bar back to normal.

i'm hoping to reach my end-game board this year. after using topre for over a month, while it's a lovely experience, i can safely say it isn't the switch for me. i'm going to find some more 45g domes to make it 45gt uniform (right now only the alphas are fully 45g), after which i'll sell it to probably fund a custom 60% with zealios, which should hopefully end it all. i'll still be browsing GH and all but at the moment i don't have the funds to fuel both my audio and keyboard addiction and i've decided that audio is more relevant to my interests and my wallet atm, so yeah.

Somehow I figured it's self-explanatory.

Basically, there's so much WTF details you can't really grasp it all at first glance - and then you end up taking a look again, and again, and again...
After a while, nothing else exists, and you just have to get it.

Nah, I need to decide on a color to resolder my RealForce LEDs to, build out a Blue ALPS 60% AEK, and then last finish up a few other board projects and prepare them for weekly rotation.

2015 was a big collecting year for me, I want to make 2016 more about enjoying the boards that I have now that my collection has stabilized. Probably work on a side project and learn a new programming language as a good excuse for doing more desk work at home.

And more IRC and PM's to people. I've talked with a lot of great people here over the past two years. Who wants to be friends? :)

The Antares! Little custom keyboard that Zorb designed, I'll have to post a picture of it later... It's got Gateron clears for switches right now, might try to find some 67g tactile zeals for it though. It looks like a slice of pizza with a bite taken out of it
