Very interesting. A 61-key ISO board! Which keycap did you decide to live without?
the < > key. I use it extremely rarely, and it's very easy to access with alt gr in combination with comma or period anyway :D
Did you have to program that into the firmware yourself? I notice that the comma and period keycaps don't have < and > as sublegends, which suggests it isn't a standard Alt Gr mapping.

Some standard layouts are like that by default. ISO/IEC 9995 specifies some AltGraph-layer recommendation, but I can't remember, if this is included there, or it's left out to national standards organizations; Czech QWERTZ is certainly like that.

I didn't need to program that, it works on all my keyboards like that. I use croatian layout, but I suppose it works with other ISO layouts as well.

What I did do is program the function layer to get arrows, print screen, home, end etc in the function layer.

Well, thank you for showing your board and explaining how you solved the > < keycap question. It has helped me solve a design problem I've been having. :D

My newest addition to the collection, a Banana Split 60% with MX Silent Reds and some old Triumph Adler double shots.

The white balance is a bit off on the last one, I only posted it to show you the complete layout.
I also had to be a bit creative with the keycaps and I had to mod the 2.25u keys, because the stab mounts were not in the usual spot.
Unfortunately I'm missing a third 1.75u keycap for the middle keycap of the split spacebar. Does anyone have one spare by chance?

It took Pexon several months to make me a cable that was compatible with the RealForce RGB, but it finally arrived and is now installed. The perfect finishing touch!

Kind of potato picture, but a little bit of an update with my IBM Terminal Keyboard 1394208...

I switched around the "unique" IBM Actionwriter (Wheelwriter) keys to the F-row. Then I put the Code and the ActionWriter's original long spacebar on (which took up the space for the Alt keys. I mapped Code to Option/Win/GUI, Caps Lock to Ctrl and moved the Alt keys out. Looks pretty good and is really fun.

I have ordered some remaining keys (including + and = 1U keys for the numpad and some colored mods) to gussy it up a bit, but that is coming to my mother-in-law, so that is coming next "care package", so who knows when.

Thank you.
Well, on "some other site" you need to add irrelevant stuff to the Pictures for "extra flare", or so it seems: I prefere flowers over shoes :) (Besides: I dont have enough shoes to match my Collection: http://imgur.com/a/U7bHm )

Oh yes, flowers are much nicer than shoes but you don't really need either here. Just nice keyboards!

In that case, the extra stuff should be thematically relevant to the keyboard being photograph: dice accompanying Chicony keyboards (to signify the randomness of their switches), box gloves for Model F keyboards (to signify their toughness), nuts for HHKB models, garbage bags for Apple Magic units, et cetera. :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Yes that is indeed the raindrop Tai Hao set, I must admit it's been ages since I used my Filco.

Klingon? KLINGON? This is STAR WARS! :D (I guess you were aware of this :) )
Kinda sad it has the normal legends in red on it. Spoils the geeky factor :)

Sure the top row is very distinct but that font just reminds me of Klingon, not sure why. :mrgreen:
