Not exactly in the mail, because I got this in the mail a while ago. But I just got it completed by having the legs bent at a metals shop.

Looks nice. I think Beast used the switch hole dimensions I gave him, so how are the switches fitting? The switches are snug, but just loose enough so it doesn't lock, right?

Yes, that's it exactly. Thanks for your help with the design. This is going to work great! :D

Not really keyboard/mouse material but I recently picked up some manuals with instructions for games on the defunct Compuserve online service.   When I was a kid I could never afford to be online ($6 hr 300 baud, $12 1200 baud) but I did get a brief taste of it and enjoyed the CB simulator (precursor to IRC?)

Anyhow I'd been looking for manuals for the original MegaWars games and this is the only one I've seen in the past few years.   It covers not only those but ALL of the games.  No, I can't play them now but I can't help but enjoying reading about them.

No offense to metalliqaz, but I think the GH60 is cooler. I will give him props for coming to GH will little knowledge of keyboards to just a few months later to design an entire one from scratch.

No offense taken.  I myself think there are lots of cooler boards.  I need my arrows, though, so 60% is not for me.  I saw a way to give these keys a second chance at life and I made it happen  ;)

The GH60 is the perfect thing for 60% fans
The Epsilon is a 75% that is beyond cool

The GH60 works for me, because i love the 60% size. The Epsilon is perfect for QAZ and it's his personal design.

Happy that it came out so well for you qaz ;)
