So...uh...Hi!
« on: Fri, 02 August 2013, 13:26:58 »
Hey guys,

Short story here:

I built my first computer in 2011, and scrounged an old IBM keyboard from my Dad's attic. It was awesome!!! Then he took it back, not being well versed in the mechanical keyboard world I went out and bought a DAS with blue switches, since then I've been itching to try out different boards and switches, and interested in learning more about them.

I stumbled upon a mention of the Poker II and found some pictures of modded and prettified ones. I realized I wanted it, I wanted it SO BAD, I made an account here, joined Feng's group buy, and bought one.

On another note, I'm interested in making some of my own keycaps, and am looking for some resources on making molds and measurements for caps.

I'm pretty sure I'll be here for a while, or at least until I run out of money :p.

PS: Yes I know my name is spelled wrong, I couldn't spell very well as a kid, and in fact, still can't.





I haven't been here long enough to find a suitable quote yet.

That doesn't even rhyme... Obviously West Coast is the best coast. Hell, even the third coast is better than that crappy coast...

Just have a look around all the information you seek is here. I would start in the 'making stuff together' section.

Guys, keep it down about rhyming. You might get Moose and CWD all riled up again...

Sounds about right.  This place drains your funds in a hurry.  :'(
