Title: Hello everyone
Post by: artificialRAGE on Thu, 07 April 2016, 08:13:21
Hello to everyone. I would like to introduce myself. Last year I caught the poison of the fascinating and addictive world of mechanical keyboards. Started with the Razer Blackwidow and now my stable consists of 5 keyboards (3 of them are Ducky as I got a good deal on them). It seems I'm a fan of MX Blues as the sound is so satisfying. Now I have bought a couple of keycap sets (Vortex PBT) and my wallet it starting to take a hit. Hopefully, I would like to venture into Topre and currently saving up for a Realforce and a HHKB. I might want to learn to solder because custom boards are cool as heck.

Boards that i have are:

Razer Blackwidow Green Switch

Ducky Shine 4 MX Blue

Ducky Zero 2108 MX Blue

Ducky One MX Brown

Armaggeddon MKA-3 MX Brown (got this super cheap)

Welcome to Geekhack!

I nearly started with a Razor, and I do now have three Duckys too!

If you're going for RealForce and HHKB, unless you have a good reason to get otherwise consider getting a 55g RealForce for contrast with the HHKB.  OTOH if you really do prefer lighter switches, consider the 45g RealForce, but general consensus is that 55g is the perfect Topre weight.
