Thanks, basically some of the nicest I own. Too bad I don't even know what the case for that keyboard looks like.

Artisans are like the carbon fiber hood scoops of the keyboard world.

I'll take a video tonight. It was quite quick, I'd say about 2 months of 5 days a week working on the keyboard got me up to speed with the keyboard. After about 4 months of using it I switched to Colemak then another 3 months later I moved all the symbols under a "layer" which is just like a special shift or Alt-Gr button that is fully programmable. Note that I am a web developer and spend 8 hours a day on my computer.MrDuul wrote: ↑I really... can't wrap my head around typing on split keyboard?
How long does it take to get used to it?

I'd say they are more like the spinning wheel rims of the keyboard world. Except twice as gaudy and less than half as cool.codemonkeymike wrote: ↑Artisans are like the carbon fiber hood scoops of the keyboard world.
It doesn't help that most of them look like the little kiddie toys you get from a Cracker Jack box.

There is a story of one being sold once but since I don't know the details I cannot divulge.zslane wrote: ↑Thankfully those can only be earned, not bought.

I kinda want one of those multi colored clear resin artisan keycaps, the ones that are just the size and shape of a normal cherry profile keycap. Like a tastefully done body kit for your 96 Toyota Camry.

The company that manufactured these caps for the (hall effect?) switches of this keyboard must have gone bankrupted because none of the modern manufacturers are kind enough to use so much materials to create key caps with comparable thickness - that is how they make profit perhaps.seebart wrote: ↑Haha I love this thread, I don't have any real "ricey" keyboards so I'll just post one with nice colors:

Remember that hardware was much more expensive in the 1970's and 1980's.Menuhin wrote: ↑The company that manufactured these caps for the (hall effect?) switches of this keyboard must have gone bankrupted because none of the modern manufacturers are kind enough to use so much materials to create key caps with comparable thickness - that is how they make profit perhaps.seebart wrote: ↑Haha I love this thread, I don't have any real "ricey" keyboards so I'll just post one with nice colors:
