Hey! Not really new, but will be more active.
« on: Sat, 04 July 2015, 08:14:48 »
Hey everyone! I'm carlitos :) I have been a member of GH for 4 months, but I'm usually pretty quiet on here. I'm more active on reddit, but after GH went down I felt so lost :( So I decided I should be more active here. Currently I have a JD40 with MX clears, Poker 2 with MX browns, and a Leopold FC200R with MX Blues. I recently got into longboarding this summer while I'm home from college so thats fun :D I hope to get to know everyone better. If you have any questions or wanna talk for no reason what so ever my inbox is always open :D

Welcome to Geekhack!

It's amazing when you realise how much you miss something like GH, especially when it is not available.

A reasonable selection of keyboards you have - have you got a favourite?

"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

Thank you! I don't really have a favorite haha I tend to rotate through them quite often. Previously I have owned an HHKB, Ergodox with 62g Gateron Clears, and a V60 with MX Clears. I just like to try new things and I still haven't found the perfect board. My favorite so far though was the HHKB. That layout was just perfeeect. The only problem were the switches were a little to light for me.

This is a very good place to be active on, especially when you need to figure something out/have real questions and don't want to just look at pretty pictures...

The JD40 you posted on the KIRA cap giveaway is quite sexy  :cool:

But can we convince you to get a Topre board?

Anyway, hello  :)

I'm glad you like it :) I have already owned an HHKB, but I ended up trading it for an ergodox with deep space caps. I miss my baby so much. I'm probably gonna get another hhkb or a 55g rf once I get back to work!

I sold my rf87u55g realforce and bought a HHKB. I love the layout but the 45g domes are a tad too light for me. I missed the 55g domes so much I just bought another realforce a :eek: so I feel you ! Welcome and I hope to see you around 8) have a great weekend 8)

Ah.. I was like that with MX clears. I had a V60 with clears, traded it for a poker with browns. Loved how quiet they were, but missed the weight. I ended up buying a JD40 with clears :D. Thank you! Have a great weekend as well.

It is possible to convert an HHKB to 55g, although you have to sacrifice a 55g RealForce in the process.

Trueeeee, but that is soooo expensive. I'll probably end up doing it. Just being a college kid I don't really ever have the 400+ dollars it would take to get both of them lol

One day someone might work out how to make aftermarket Topre domes.
