esoomenonema, after seeing tj's kindness on Pacifist's thread, where he was selling an Oktoberfest and I was trying to find one without selling my body, decided to be a super generous person and let me use his Oktoberfest MX on my board! I also got to see some of his many clacks (one of which is worth more than the three keyboards I've bought so far...), and feel the cloud of mammaries that is Topre (HHKB is so light!). It was pretty awesome. Finally, as he was leaving, he showed me an unfinished board in an aluminum case, informing me that he was out of a soldering iron and was more interested in the keycaps that came with it, so I now have an unfinished 60% board in an aluminum case!
Rest assured, when I manage to find out what on earth I'm supposed to do and get a soldering iron, I'll finish it up and post many, many pictures. But here are six, three for each thing.
And I uploaded a video of myself typing, you can see the source of all my power in the upper left hand corner of the keyboard. It's also less potato-quality than my earlier one.
