Hello All
« on: Mon, 02 March 2015, 22:40:54 »
My friend brought his Razer over my house in November, and now I own 3 mechs. Found this forum in my hunt for cool keycaps. Looking forward to diving in deeper.  :D

Hello captainish and welcome to Geekhack! You will definitely find some cool keycaps here! Are you talking about keycap sets or one-off artisan caps?

Mostly keyset group buys, but I am a huge fan of KWKs.

KwKs and KbK (his old name) are super clean caps. I would love to get some one day. Especially those topre FN sets.  :o

Welcome to Geekhack!

What three keyboards have you got?

And good luck in your search for Artisan keycaps!

In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

My current boards are a Ducky shine mini (Blues), Quickfire TK (browns), and a Novatouch TKL.

I am still in my search for my favorite switch type.

For some that's a road that never ends. Be careful.  :))

Blues, browns and 45g Topre, an interesting mix, but all fairly soft switches.  Maybe you need to try blacks, greens, 55g Topre or even buckling spring next ;)

I am looking to upgrade from my TK soon, mostly due to that odd space bar sizing, and I am not a fan of browns. Going to try a board with clears or blacks next. Loving the novatouch right now. I can see the ducky mini turning into an HHKB in my future  :D

I like blacks.  I'd like to try clears one day.  I like greens more though.  And I have found that I like buckling spring even more!
