An interesting company, focusing on developing "Font Types".
MORISAWA might have made used of that keyboard indeed - or is that Kanji-system namded MK-11- MORISAWA indeed?

They made a number of photo typesetting systems such as the MK-110 as seen in the video clip.

I got a Cherry G80-3000HFD from the chunk box, serial 043893 - is it 1993?
It is my first MX-blue board. As I have some clones, razer green and outemu blue, this is really different from what I expected.
The keyfeel and sound is completely different and rather reminds me on the ALPS SKCM orange or white dampend of my AEKs than those of the MX-blue clones.
The only thing is the spring rattling around in the switch after a keypress which I really hate about this construction. But on this board it is quite sympathetic. I must think of a diligent squirrel rattling around with nuts while I'm typing. The keys are hardly clicky at all and tactility is very light. Some keys are clicky (about 5%) but most are not. So it is not 100% homogeneous all over the board, on some switches I cannot tell hardly any difference to the ALPS??? But the inconsistency over the board is not disturbing me when writing. I can type really fast on this board. Switches are light and smooth you have to take care, if you do not want to bottom out. I do not press keys erratically as I do on other light boards???. Many keys make double or tripple trigger when pressing, I hope it will disappear with some use.This one could become one of my favourites, it feels really good overall - wow - never say never... I really have to check a modern MX-blue board some day for comparison.

Just picked up my first Alps board - a black Dell AT101W.

Nice! I had one of those that was my daily driver for awhile, albeit a long time ago. Black alps isn't too shabby honestly, although I prefer orange.brainandforce wrote: ↑03 Jul 2019, 17:59Just picked up my first Alps board - a black Dell AT101W.

I bought a 3d printer ("Ender 3X", 200$ shipping included, from a warehouse in Europe no less!). Since then, and because I have the keyboards I want (Topre etc.), I rarely visit here 
3d printing finally became cheap and good, and opens nearly-infinite possibilities (imagine making your own cases, plates and custom Alps stabilizers ...).

All of this:
Just to get these little buggers:
Such a waste of human resource. Packing it and transport. Why do people are so afraid to take the damn caps off
Still very happy the hunt is finally over. Well left shift is missing but whatever. Yay!

I presume you're doing a mix of these caps with some Maquardt butterfly switches perhaps from another Olympia keyboard? So say white alphas with black modifiers? That's something I always thought would look nice!

Decided it was time for a new PC and opted for the tiny route this time.
La croix can for scale but you really gotta see it in person to appreciate how small it is.

Trying to get a bit more organized. I have a few things to ship out and thought my new white board would be the perfect vehicle to plan out my work.

they are not the best, I know it, but anyway different from the usual sandals already seen on DT...... Very tactile, though.

I'be just bought these new pair of flip flop on holiday here at Chania, Crete.... I was in full abstinence crisis from compulsive purchases, so my tarnished sight fell upon what seemed most close to a keyboard in an holiday place....

I have almost got addicted to watching The Lock Picking Lawyer on Youtube, on which he picks various locks in seconds and shows how very badly made many locks are. There are a bunch of gun locks there. I would check that the trigger lock you are using is not one of the bad ones...
BTW, in my country it is also the law to store guns in a gun safe.
