Did you get your monitors from the same seller?

Here's the matte version from a seller that ships worldwide : http://www.ebay.de/itm/QNIX-QX2710-LED-Evolution-ll-Matte-Off-grade-27-2560x1440-PLS-Panel-PC-Monitore/121490884167?_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851&_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIC.MBE%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20140117130753%26meid%3De86a3be9b8...

How does that work?

wlhlm

Correct. Europe will be ~10GBP for up to 3 sets.

The Nixdorf Photekq had before had lasered caps. They done't seem as nice as the doubleshots.

They are indeed nice to type on (except for the spacebar). My first experience with sphericals and I'm impressed!

The layout is a bit unusual.

Another Nixdorf Softkeys. (proxy for Photekq) ;) This time with nice doubleshot sphericals :o https://i.imgur.com/31NWp3M.jpg https://i.imgur.com/2g7TZHD.jpg https://i.imgur.com/noB3uyk.jpg https://i.imgur.com/tLpz0TZ.jpg I like the rectangular traces on the PCB https://i.imgur.com/WmhJlhS.jpg More ...

Thanks for the review madhias. Your pictures are always a highlight for me!

This looks like a Cherry M9 with a black stem.

Nice catch!

Are those doubleshots? The legends seem a bit pale.

Nonetheless, interesting R3 Control!

wlhlm

I think the most interesting thing about it are the vintage Blacks. Those seem to be from the same era as the Nixdorf switches.

Can't wait!

Got all the parts except the actual controller.

I meant that the keyboard is an abomination either way and Comic Sans is just the icing on the cake.

I think it fits well with the overall theme of the keyboard.

I have created some improved mockups, mainly because the original GMK render really looks unattractive.

Lately, I've been reading a lot about Soarer's converter and the thread here has a ton of interesting resource/configs. Another example is XMIT's nice write-up about magnetic valve switches . Really interesting content, that unfortunately, often is burried deep down in topics that span pages and pag...

That's what I'm wondering as well. I've asked before: http://deskthority.net/post237864.html#p237864 Consensus was ~40EUR Personally, I'm not really interested in QWERTZ and I prefer the sharper legends on the doubleshots. Of course, thick PBT is always nice, but I think someone else will appreciate...

If customs catch your package you'll be noticed and need to provide a proof of payment, e.g. from PayPal or simply a copy of the wire transfer. You can simply do this by mail or go tho the customs office in person, but usually the customs offices in Germany are very far outside the city, especially...

Looks really promising! Awesome project phosphorglow!

Small idea, but how about turning the charge indicator LED on the sub-board by 90 degrees? This would allow to solder the LED sideways (like some people do with their GON PCBs) and have it shine directly at the port cover.

I was waiting for you to finally post over here

Really nice find. Now I just have to sell an organ to get something I can trade with you.

Though, even the case would be nice, so that I could team it up with a Triumph Adler keyset.
