Welcome to Geekhack :)

What keyboards do you have?
Logged
keyboard collection - fjell

cherry blacks - unlubed - filmed and springswapped with tx 55g mediums - alu Plate | pretty happy with this, the blacks were cherry picked so they weren't that scratchy to begin with, but currently breaking them in, may lube them with a dry lube like ro59 or ptfe powder.

lubed with tribosys 3203 | like topre a lot, prefer it lubed but did make less tactile but that might have been a skill issue. probably will get more tactile over time as the domes age.
| m0115

bad orange alps lol | definitely needs a restoration. planning on wax boiling them and maybe a replacement pcb because the board has only 2 key rollover apparently.
| praxis

gateron yellows - lubed with 205g0 - 62g tx mediums - pc plate | probably my favourite keyboard already, feels super nice and sounds pretty good, it's got a great layout as well. probably gonna build this with mx browns, I feel like it would suit the board more.
| camo filco

stock with silent reds | Pretty cool looking board, the silent reds are actually good, they are smooth and I don't mind the mushiness (it's not even that mushy as well). the layout is pretty weird, but is useable. will probably mod this in the future. maybe a pcb and plate swap, change the keycaps to something dolch like, and also spring swap the springs in the silent reds.

stock, needs a cleaning and probably replacement foam. Do plan to change layout so it has split bs and rs, as well as ansi enter.

Built with new nixies on pc half plate. Love this board already, probably the best looking board I own, those brass accents are so mint. Really like it as is, but I do want to try an alu build (probably with nixies as well) just to experiment with that.

The variety of stuff is pretty cool, and the hhkbs as well. I really like mine. I've mostly stuck to cherry though, pretty hard to beat good modded cherries. GMK skeletor also a good pick, a classic set.

Indeed. I had two Cherries; nixies and the silent reds. Somehow, I didn't like the silent reds but they were soldered on Leopold I had in the past. You were able to hear a deep vibration sound each time you press. Probably both the plate and the switch were causing the vibration but I sold it sometime later and didn't get any Cherry 'till nixies.

And I love the form factor of HHKB. I still believe it has the best layout ever designed. My 40% addiction is coming from HHKB's great layout as well (I know HHKB is 60% but I am more into the layout). And HHKB is also kind of indestructible. You buy once and that's it.
