Does anyone know what the default Key Repeat settings are in Windows 7? I plan on setting it with FilterKeys, but if it proves problematic, is it possible to do it through Windows? An internet search proved fruitless. I have never experienced a problem with FilterKeys in the past but ever since messing with the settings on a recent install, it seems like my IBM Model M just isn't typing like it was prior to doing it; e.g. it seems shift and control keys sometimes are not triggered and if I am typing quickly, it's prone to mistakes. After some playing around it's almost back to normal but it isn't perfect. Not sure whether a Windows 7 update is to blame or, if it's something with how my MB inputs PS/2 signals, or if I am just losing my motor skills along with my sanity. I have yet to try it with my only USB keyboard (Matias Ergo Pro).

To the OP—I would like to thank you personally for this program. I have been using it heavily since 2013—I dare say that it has been one of, if not the greatest, productivity enhancer(s) that I've used. You see, I am a big fan of 'caret browsing', both for the web and PDFs, and if I want to read and something in detail, I will enable it and hold the right arrow key in and scroll; FilterKeys doubled the speed of this process. It may seem like a useless thing to do, but if you are reading dry textbooks on material that you could care less about, it really allows you to read at a consistent rate without the mind going astray. This program has saved me countless dozens of hours (prior, I would just read through as the repeat rate for any keyboard, even my Maltron, was just too slow) and I would even go as far as crediting it for helping me get through my last (nearly 3, now?) years of college. Again, thank you from the bottom of my heart for uploading it to this site, otherwise I would have never found it. netmirror
The explanation is clear and helpful, especially in pointing out that only FilterKeys is needed while still including every available FilterKeys option for completeness.

Are the MX Browns still available? Looked on your storefront and it said unavailable, unfortunately.

I don't know how a two-stage spring feels on such a soft-tactile switch like an MX Brown. Should you recommend going with a lighter or heavier spring to feel the bump more?
Also have you thought about offering MX Clears? I do like my MX Browns but kinda tempted to try MX Clears if those show up on the store.


Hi, MX Browns are available now!
I recommend 58g, the tactility is more pronounced with the two-stage springs :)
As for now, there's no plan yet for MX Clears :(

Hey everyone, it's been a while, but I've brought along several changes. This project is an ongoing one, and I expect there to be more tweaks in the future.

  • Typing Angle: Adjusted to 9° to balance usability with design
  • Renders: Completely revamped the renders to be more aesthetically pleasing, as well as incorporating the new typing angle
  • Form/Feedback: Adjusted the feedback form, especially regarding feedback on the engravings
  • Information: Added more technical/general information on the post

Nice progress! Keeping the feedback form updated should make future improvements even easier :thumb:

Thank you  :D

I dunno about the choice of letting the right side be a mirror of the left. Intuitively, I think making the left side be a mirror of the right feels better. But to each their own.

Interest Checks / Re: [IC] GMK CYL Orange Alert | VOTE FOR R4 OR R5

I actually would buy a dedicated R5 row if everything else was normal. Not sure how many sets have an R5, but I feel like it's not common.

I think all previous “Alert” sets were R5 with no Alert row in Base.

Awesome set!  Definitely interested.  Anything going on with the progress?

The board looks interesting. However, I have to point out this is a poorly written IC. It provides virtually no info (not even the mounting style, really?) and does not seem to want to collect feedback. Perhaps you should rethink the purpose of this post.
