Salmon Alps? OMG love those. Nice score

So, while I was away in hostel, these packages arrived home. What a treat to come home for a day and get to see so many goodies, too bad I won't have much time as I have to head back for the remaining exams in a couple of days. Anywho, the haul:

Some EDC stuff, again, thanks alot to my great proxy friend for ordering these, repacking them and sending them over. Proxy, the packaging was awesome, so much bubble wrap that the customs took it, but was terrified to open the packages, no customs paid this time round, woot!

First, two little toys, a utili-key and a small LED torch:

Next we have the best seller Leatherman Wave. Really impressed with the build and solidarity. This is my first Leatherman. Also, I love the accessibility of straight edge and serrated blades. Very happy with this purchase.

The SOG Twitch II, this was smaller than I expected, and was actually happy, I was worried it would be too big to carry in my pocket. This thing is so small I can carry it in my slightly larger than normal wallet

. I love the safety switch and assisted flipper opening. I just wish it had a liner lock to allow better one handed use.

Next up is some GMK goodness from UK thanks to osxeop (There was an extra pair of 1u Ctrl).

Also ordered a bunch of mods from EK. Really just missing the Enter and the arrows now.
Purple Mods. Check
CMYK Mods. Check
EK WoRGB, BoY Mods. Check
BoRGB Mods. In transit.

I need to do a GMK Mods family photo once my exams get over.

OneHand PCB from Elliot, this is a really interesting design, this would be fun to experiment with.

Papa and Mama wolf:

And lots of vinyl, dem colors!

It's actually ABS, there was a problem with cherry's molds back in the 80s and no one caught it until the late 2000's.

Try a little bit of acetone on the bottom of the caps, you'll see.

I believe that only applies to the spacebar.

I got the Leopold FC-660M from Qtan yesterday. I want to let the community the shipment and delivery was very fast and the keyboard arrived in perfect condition.

It has gray case and brown switches. The POM keys have a very nice rough feeling and the switches have the right amount of feedback and are very light. I was using reds in my poker and these ones compare well with it. A little bit better feedback than the reds and the weight is also nice. What I do not like much is the short height of the keycaps. I will try to use some cherries I have instead of the stock POM caps.

I feel a little bit more productive with the 660 compared with the poker. The weight is also higher in the 660. In comparison the poker is very very light.

Great new board.
