Hey, UK, from Reddit

Hey,

Lurker but a fellow redditor / IRC MK nut.

I don't know why, but I love it all.

Novatouch, Planck, Access IS and waiting on a Dox.

Hi. Welcome UK from Reddit  :p

I'm guessing those keyboards in your profile pic are your daily drivers?

What is your favorite switch?

Nice to meet you. It's honestly pretty great here. I've been a lurker for a few years but decided to be more active recently. The website has a bit of a learning curve, but once you get used to it, it's not bad.

I've been having a good time watching the Spy tab, so you kind of get an idea of whats going on around the community.

Welcome to Geekhack!

Colour-coordinated keyboards - nice :)  Mine are all over the place, each one has different keycaps :))  At least it's a bit of variety.

What switches are in each board?

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

Thank for the warm welcome guys.

The boards are a Novatouch, an Access IS (blacks) and a Planck (browns) and waiting on an Ergodox (gateron Brown).

Caps are G20 sublimated from SA with the alphas dyed by a friend from the he scene.

Have you got matching black/red cables too?

That's  great idea. Hadn't thought of making my own. Guess there are probably plenty of tutorials.

Pexon is one of the cable makers around here - have a look at his range: http://pexonpcs.co.uk/pages/colours

He has a vendor forum here, where you're more than welcome to request a custom colour.

And the best thing is, if I understand correctly you are in the UK - so is Pexon! :)
