This is exactly why I don't feel good with just sending it on to the next person who wants a go on it. It's Muirium's keyboard and his tour. I haven't heard anything from him, and due to my break from the forums, I missed the post above which seems to show that it's okay to send it onto scottc. So a...

where are you located? If you click on my profile you will get a drop down menu that states where I am based, also if you look at the original list it also says where I'm based (to save you the hassle, it's Scotland). If this is still open/extended, I’m still interested in giving it a short go :) A...

Yes, QMK works too, MrRooks did a fork of QMK for NerD60 and had success with installing this firmware. This is the link to his GitHub repo : https://github.com/MrRooks/qmk_firmware You you are able to add new features please share them ! It would be nice to have fancy lights controls for NerD60 li...

Urgh, I been off here for a while and just remembered I still have this keyboard while doing some spring cleaning

Really sorry about not posting sooner, but I'm happy to send it on to whoever wants it next if we are extending the tour, just let me know!

Haters gonna hate, bro. We hate Apple because they are so successful. We jelly. I don't hate apple at all , its beacuse i like macs and macos that i get so pissed off at the crap they have been up to recently. If i hated them i would ether not care , or laugh. I totally agree: for me it's come to t...

So the keyboard looks great and there is even a product page for it here .

Thanks for the compliment and the keyboard recommendation! I will definitely keep an eye on that, thanks again

So after around a week with the keyboard, I am ready to post my review on it. A typing video is at the end of the post if you want to hear and see the keyboard in action! So here goes! TL;DR: I loved the layout and found it to be a really comfortable keyboard to use, but the switches are the thing w...

Just received the keyboard this morning from TuxKey, thanks for sending it on to me, paying the exorbitant shipping fee and packaging it up nicely!

Will do a typing video and some thoughts at some point down the line.

Yeah it seems strange that you would include 1.5u mods and not a 7u spacebar. It's kind of a deal breaker for the extra pack in my eyes.

How is it for a rubber dome?

Eh I should post my question in another thread I think! My Leopold does state that it is made in China, but I don't think that is a stamp of quality or lack thereof. Surely a factory's geographic position doesn't magically change production practices and standards? I mean I understand that the wage ...

I thought that there are a few buyers in china the buy from Massdrop in bulk from pre-orders taken in China.
I have seen a number of pages where sellers post up pre-orders or sell extra sets on Taobao.

So maybe that is what he meant when he said that China will jump in on it?

Instead of starting a new thread I thought I would piggy back of the popularity of this thread to ask my own Topre fussiness related question. Ever after opening up and putting in landing pads into my Leopold FC660C (and then removing them) I have had a problem with the stabilised keys. For some rea...

I have found that the milky switches have the keycap sticking issue, but I have yet to encounter a switch with the newer clear top that has had this problem. I don't really believe that it was intentionally a design feature like Zeal said, the reason apparently being that it stopped some debris fall...

Rocket scientist.

Wow those look really good!
Are you thinking about offering this as a service to those who don't have a sand-blasting setup?

Yes, please!

Also would be interested in some Mac modifiers!

Neat idea for those who don't already have a RGB underglow keyboard, but the height seems to be an issue for me as I would a big wrist/palm rest to counter that.

Thanks for the info, that makes more sense.
I would be tempted if (like gogusrl said) it was half the price. So does that mean you are planning to build one?

It unclear if the one handed keyboard would accommodate all the keys of a full sized keyboard. The description doesn't help as it's been really badly translated: "Mechanical keyboard, 44 shortcut keys, along with rest of the 5 keys allow you to remap the keys on the keyboard." I get the feeling it i...

Not sure how great these are, but might be interesting to some: Amazingly over-priced Cherry G81-3000LPNUS , $175 because it's "rare". One-handed mechanical keyboard, Parblo PR200w : £52.90 BIN OBO (shipping from China). Cyrillic Chicony KB-5181 , £12.49 starting bid, but £22.50 shipping from Ukrain...

This looks really promising, where do you plan the GB to be hosted? Will it be another Massdrop buy?

Yeah I was wondering that too, why does it have the 'shift' legend on it when the other one is just icon only.

Great, always a pleasure with you!

Which kind of backspace do you prefer? I notice that all your Cherry 60% boards have the full sized one, is that only because you couldn't get the right caps?

photekq wrote: ↑If I may ask : How do you light your photos? They are superb.

I would be interested too, thinking about investing in some better lighting.

I actually have one of these cases (if it is the same as the one sold in China), I would recommend it as it's very good for the price. The anodised finish is good and so is the milling.
Out of interest what bad things have you heard?

The look exactly the same to me, I just assumed that ukkeycaps imports products from China as the plates, cases, springs, and switch testers all look like the ones you can readily get on Taobao. The prices are not bad though, considering the added costs of importing them directly from China yourself...

Are you using the right switch as a stabiliser for the 7u spacebar?

I don't know if it's as simple as using the Windows layout on OS X, where the apps have their own conventions for key layout. Maybe there is some simple mapping. Maybe if you just change the positions of the Alt and Windows keys, and keep using the same apps in OS X, it will work out. But Mac keybo...
