Sorry if this was posted already but have you guys seen some of the keyboards there? They're pretty unique. Wonder what kind of switches are inside. =P

Here are some of them..

"The Marquis"

"The Reliquary"

"IBM Model M Ergo keyboard"

After:

Here's the link to that site in case you wanna see more. Here's the quote from an article over at HS:

"This keyboard was designed by Richard Nagy, who is an artist that specializes in the steam punk style and works on a commission basis. On his website he commented that he is thinking moving to a larger workspace so that he could produce more pieces at a time, but as of right now he is producing only one keyboard at a time upon request."

Very well built and artistic...but they look uncomfortable.
He will make you one for $1200 - $1500.

I believe they come with coffin key-chain as well.

I'm still upset about the M15. At the very least, the adjustability should have been preserved.

He's a Geekhacker. Tends to use ALPS.

Thanks for pointing that out, Ripster. I didn't know that he's here. lol Anyway, those are some very unique and interesting works indeed.

Fantastic pieces of art. Yum. I haven't tried ALPS switches, so I don't know if I'd want to get one if I ever stumbled upon a large amount of money.

If I were to get one of his 'boards, I would rather have one built off a Model M.
