That collection is BAD ASS!!! The snow blanks look incredible on a black hhkb if that tempts you at all You better believe my temptation is through the roof at that thought! :shock: In fact I've thought about buying the blank snow key-caps and then seeing about doing a custom dye-sub job including ...

It’s too early in the day to summon the fury and dismay my actual reaction to those Christ awful legends, which are yet another step entirely in the wrong direction for the HHKB. Maybe I should just hoard the good ones while they’re still out there, like Wobbled? :lol: I am however in favour of MX ...

It sounds like I'm going for the Deskeys thins. I am shooting for quiet but no affect on tactility. :ugeek: Incidentally: while digging up that link, I found this: https://fujitsuscannerstore.com/CG01000-307201/ Is this “Snow” model news? Does it deserve a separate thread? And can anyone guess what...

My 2014 HHKB is Type-S original. The black one I bought last year is the one with Hyper’s rings, along with my 87U and NovaTouch. I’ll keep an eye on the younger (2020 manufacture date) black model for any change in tactility as you say. I’ve already said I prefer its lightness to my heavily used 2...

Mu is correct, HHKBs are often as cheap if not cheaper than Niz https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/394262996285 Not to mention they are better in every way, and only get better with age! Oh PULLEEEZZEE, another Flebay spruik here on DT? Again we see the HHKB zealots out in force, desperately wanting to bel...

I was wondering - why CM never repeated Novatouch? Why nobody else tried to do topre keyboard after NT?

AFAIK the rights to using Topre components simply cost too much for Cooler Master

However I personally wouldn’t use [Hypersphere’s rings] on an unsilenced hhkb as it will pre-compress the dome taking away tactility and causes long term damage. Got a source for this claim? I use Hypersphere rings on all my non Type-S Topre boards, because that’s precisely the point of them. If a ...

Realistically your only choice now is deskeys since kbdfans have completely ditched topre and did a mass sell off of all their stuff. If you have purple realforce sliders, type s sliders, or deskey sliders then hypersphere rings could be an option. However I personally wouldn’t use these on an unsil...

My latest build with the appropriate 'The Last of Us underground bunker' ambience: Details: Keychron Q2 Knob with Purple Pandas switches, SA Carbon keycaps and Durock v2 stabilizers. Thocky, not silent, but if the "New World Order jackboot f*cks" are close enough to hear the thock, we've got bigger...

Perhaps dear old Oliver can sell Deskthority back to us

Btw there’s one on MechMarket for $175: https://www.reddit.com/r/mechmarket/com ... rds_etc_w/

Good price but that one is black, OP wants white which seem a bit harder to find

Out of curiosity, how would I check if my Realforce is an R1 model?

The R1 has an extended top lip with the realforce logo on the top left.
The R2 edges sit pretty close to the edges of the keycaps and the logo is on the top right side.
Here is a comparison video

I don’t know anything about firmware but I do know it runs on via.
I bought it to create a realforce 86u, I suppose you could upgrade an old 86u if you had one to enable key remappings, but if you do then sell me your old PCB i destroyed realforce 101/3s and 91us just to get a black and white 86u

For how much are used 87U R1 normally going for these days? They are pretty expensive and hard to come by usually. I recently built two realforce 86U boards using parts from a realforce 103, realforce 91u case, a custom pcb and a steel plate I had cut for it. Surprisingly easier to do that than fin...

PeterQuines confirmed the BSSK will be like the B104, except with the right side removed. No lock LEDs but they can be added just like with the F77/F62. Glad your new Model F is holding up well so far. I added this note to the product pages in the what's included section. Sorry akuseru1994, the key...

Confused as to why I didn’t get an email for R1/R2 when I signed the interest form months ago when this project was first announced. Hell even my comment is on the first page of this thread…

The lighter domes is just a Hybrid Type S thing, PFU wanted it to have a distinctively softer keypress. If you pick up a HHKB Classic (still 3rd gen) then the domes are much more comparable to a NIB pro 2

The Hybrid Type S domes despite being 45g, are softer than the 45g pro 2 and realforce domes. This will contribute massively to the feel, as much as it being a plastic plate vs steel on a realforce

The casing will age and turn YELLOW whilst the keys remain White, showing the bad choices made at that factory. Yet the addicts will all holler insults at my facts being presented here. How odd that the inept suddenly try to acquire any abnormal sense of reality, when it comes to their choice here....

These started in early - mid November previously. Personally, I think it's too late to set one up now

For how long will these boards be made? Will it end at a specific number or date?

For as long as the $$$ rolls in my guy

I was exaggerating, right enough, but well agreed that we’re not really their audience; thus the history of miscommunications. We were asking them to make SSKs for years and years before the new kid showed up and finally got them shipping. In fact, some of us were even designing them . Then rage qu...

Not to worry, I’m here to take the HHKB off your hands. You’re obviously wanting to get rid of it as soon as possible and I don’t blame you one bit so I’ll accept it free of charge!

This is an absolute steal, especially when the only other one available is on ModelFKeyboards.com for $4000
Thank God there are still people out there that aren't consumed by greed. GLWS XMIT!

If you want professional quality videos, then perhaps offer to pay for them...?

How are the newer kbdfans hipros? I tried their first batch and wasn't a fan.
Opted for some resin hipros instead

[…] 99% books have been digitised or digitally issued […] That is a bold assumption. I would rather assume that ±99% of all books ever published never made it to a digital version. Agreed. A quick browse in a school or university from the 1600s or prior and you’ll find books that the internet has l...
