Post your keyboard/keycaps!

Nice! Why did you make the Nerd60 with a small shift if you don't have the small shift? I would have gone with the long one, since you already have the 1u in place of the winkeyless.

Because I like to have a fn key at the right of the the Rshift because I have my naviguation keys (arrow + nav cluster at the right of my keyboard).

Also I'm not too worried about sourcing one.

Made some pictures in the last days of my Realforce keyboard with baby blue artisan caps!

Fantastic! I'm starting to put 980x190 frames around them with my eyes…

Khers · 30 Apr 2015, 11:05

Nice shots Madhias! I especially like the one with your kid pressing esc

seebart · 30 Apr 2015, 11:24

great shots Madhias! May I use them for headers?

Madhias · 30 Apr 2015, 11:36

Of you can make headers out of those pictures! Free to use! There's no watermark, but commercial use is not nice

Khers wrote: ↑Nice shots Madhias! I especially like the one with your kid pressing esc

He always likes colored and funky caps - and instantly grabs after them! When I put caps on the ESC position on the Realforce, all caps are very loose and you don't need a keycap puller. It is not the stem of the caps, because when I put them on another position, they are not as loose as on ESC. Therefor the little boy already had a cap in his mouth

Changed the cable on my RF23 today. Was rather a more involved process than I had anticipated from doing a cable swap on my RF87. I ordered a cable from pexon after looking a little into things and realising that the PCB connector was the same. What I didn't realise however, was that both the ground connector and the ferrite bead was smaller on the numpad.

Having neither of those at home in the right size, I decided to adjust the ones that came with the replacement cable. Unfortunately I forgot to grab any photos of this but what I did was simple enough; I replaced the ferrite bead's plastic housing with some shrink wrap, making it just small enough to fit, and bent the ground connector into a shape that would let it fit inside the case. As if this wasn't enough, the strain relief isn't the same on the 87 and 23. On the 23 there is a metal thingy clamped on the cable that hooks into the case, which I had to transplant from the old cable to the new.

Enough with the writing, here's a pic of the result:

Just added a small feature to my daily driver.

haha that siemens nixdorf badge fits perfectly there. Very nice. Of course I prefer the real thing.

DanielT · 04 May 2015, 19:07

This is looking great

And I love that case I have one in silver too.

Nice numpad! The red cable fits perfect to the white/beige case and caps. And the CC - a worthy place for the cap. Sometimes I'll get a Realforce numpad. Or at least I think I'll need one sometimes...

Thanks!

I got a very good deal on the numpad, otherwise I would probably not have one. I'm quite an infrequent numpad user tbh, but it's nice to know that it's there when I want to use it

DanielT · 07 May 2015, 13:23

I will let you guess what board I have here :

Spoiler:

It's not a custom Korean, not a commercial one and not handwired

P.S: Alinh, please don't spoil it

That goes also for Hzfaq

Nice GON

I like the colors a lot, is this one of the DT Awards Limited Edition PCB's ?

photekq · 07 May 2015, 13:25

New custom 60% Alps PCB from the Romanian community?

Or hasu's?

Poker 3?

KBParadise V60 with ALPS?

Nuum · 07 May 2015, 13:28

It's hasu's Alps 60%.

DanielT · 07 May 2015, 13:29

photekq is right, it's a Hasu Alps 60%

When I get a little bit of spare time I will make a full thread with the build log. Took a lot of photos.

HzFaq · 07 May 2015, 13:31

So much regret on missing that buy

.

Looking forward to a build log though

I would have regretted it too, the PCB is amazing. Now I have to learn how to use TMK

Dell keyboards are a great candidate for harvesting the plate, I was able to cut it without destroying any of the stab mounts, it's a perfect fit.
I will upload the photos and maybe tomorrow I will have more time to post the build log. It took me half a day to do it, that including the cutting of the plate, which was the most time consuming and annoying part. Lucky me I had a Dremel and some cutting disks.

HzFaq · 07 May 2015, 13:58

I hesitated because I need a new project like I need another hole in my head at this point...oh well, hopefully there'll be a second run, I've got an AT102W kicking around that could use some attention

.

TMK isn't so bad once you get your head around it. I usually have hasu's HHKB keymap file open and use it as a reference guide for when I want to do something fancy with FN keys or whatnot. I've no prior coding experience (bar some super basic TF2 configs back in the day), so if I can pick it up I'm sure you'll be fine.

Infact, I was digging around in it yesterday; finally got my ergodox TMK'd and added some more sneaky macros to my Phantom (a dedicated shit+tab key has been a game changer already).

DanielT · 07 May 2015, 14:21

I don't have many projects, so this was a nice thing to do. Alin had a NIB Dell board laying around so when I saw that thread I went for one.
Is the first time someone lets me in to be part of a prototype testing group, and it was fun

I have enough experience with coding, I just have to take some time to learn how to use TMK, because with the default layout I don't have any Fn mappings :d No arrows on Fn layer on a 60% is bad, but still I'm typing on it right now.
I think I will play tomorrow with the layout, I had enough work today with the hardware part.
