First custom keyboard build "Enter The Matrix 2018.02"

[Savagesteel]

Hello everyone,

I'm new to GeekHack but I want to share my first custom mechanical keyboard build.
I use mechanical keyboards for a few years now two of them being a Cherry MX Board 3.0 (Cherry MX Red) and a Ducky Channel One (Cherry MX Blue).
I was very happy with the Ducky Channel but needed a more silent mechanical keyboard good for gaming and typing.
Logically I looked at Cherry MX Silent Red keyboards but there are not a lot of them. Furthermore I tend to make more typos with Cherry MX Red switches maybe because of the low actuation force.
Then I discovered the Cherry MX Silent Black switches exist and since I did not find a keyboard featuring those I decided to build a custom 60% keyboard:

• Satan GH60 PCB
• Genuine Cherry Stabilizers set 4x2u 2x6.25u (PCB Mounted, not clipped)
• Cherry MX Silent Black switches (Plate Mounted)
• Black DIY 60% Mechanical Keyboard Case Universal
• Black Aluminium 60% Plate Universal ANSI & ISO Frame
• Green LEDs EL204V50 3mm 20mA 3.5V 5000mcd
• Ducky Channel Black PBT Double-shot ISO french keycaps
• Amazon Basics USB-A to mini USB-B

You can find more pictures and the QMK firmware keymap.c file I'm using on this GitHub repository: https://github.com/savagesteel/custom-keyboards
Please let me know what you think of this first build!

Cheers

I like it, I like every themed custom build that look good as yours.
Since you like green you might wanna be interested in GMK Terminal. Round two is planned soon, although I doubt Azerty will be offered.

Also, welcome to GH.

Thank you for your comment.

I will definitely check this website over time, good looking keycaps  .
Finding AZERTY french keycaps is quite a challenge, the only offering I was able to find is from LDLC.com a Ducky Channel retailer (https://www.ldlc.com/navigation/keycaps/) otherwise I would need to take it from full keyboards.
