Raptor K1 vs. 1800HAD -tinkering with caps, covers...

title gives it away, just tinkering with the possibilities. For reference thread.
Apart from that the typing experience from cherry DS is pwning any switch change big time, the smaller the PCB the bigger the difference....noobvious mention, but though. Enjoy :)

needless topic, I know. But slippery POM caps make slipping them down go like a slip. This, and having a plan on the ideal route... ;)
I like reversed-bicolor-beige-case, my fingers prefer classic-bicolor-stealth, best compromise is probably modern-bicolor-beige-case.
Am I on the hunt for some dark grey cherrys to replace the black POMS ? guess not at the moment...The light grey of DOLCHs Alpha keys would be awesome for that though ...

Kint, that's Goddamn AWESOME !!
That board was for sale in Denmark,
I don't have words to express how much I regret not just buying a few ..
( I didn't pay close attention to caps at the time, but as I recall, it had Danish layout,
ie Danish layout BLACK double-shots ?? )

I agree with that .. For linear switches at least .
