Title: Long Lurk, First Hi!
Post by: sourmk on Sun, 30 December 2018, 04:00:12
Been a lurker for a while, and realized I never said hello. Mainly checking out the cool, custom desk setups, and keyboards. Still a little new to custom keyboards but, I'm slowly making my way. Not really in a rush to have a big collection.

Currently a very proud father of two KBDfans boards, a black 75 with Tealios, and a black Tofu Hhkb, with Gateron blacks, lubed springs, and modded GMK Screw-ins with band aids. Both topped with JTK. Have a little Yorkie mix who answers to Tuckus and Kitteh in Arabic. Adopted him a little over a year ago now, he's an absolute delight, and a boss at fetch.

I am a graphic and communication designer, recently finished a couple design projects in the community that I'm very proud of. Feel free to check out some of my work on Insta @cualityqontrol - client work, design experiments, and my poor attempts at photography (Only have my phone for the moment, but you can still take some okay photos on phones these days). I always really enjoyed tinkering with things, this obviously also translates to keyboards now. I'd like to modify the bottom row of my 75 soon, so my next step is to purchase some soldering stuff, practice on an older pcb, and then change that bottom row. Very much enjoyed "putting together" my hotswap Tofu, modding the stabs, and lubing the Gat black springs. Really can't wait to put an entire keyboard together, with lubed switches, and tuned stabs.

Anyway, Merry Christmas & Happy New Year to you all!

Big cheers and much love to this community!

Hello to you, and thank you! I like the Tofu, the 75, and the dog quite a bit  :p

Quite liked your vegan metal logotype also. Really hits the mark! Nice work.
