Thanks and thank you for the case.

You need to fix the bottom right corner of that sticker

Everything else looks great.

Finally assembled a kit that was long overdue:

That's a GON60 PCB (Black) with a HHKB plate from LeandreN Round 4 and Cherry MX Clear switches (62gr. springs, lubed) in a low profile aluminium case from Massdrop.
Keycaps are a brighted & blasted HAD set with HADapter & HADditionals caps and some GMK Unicorn caps. No clue where I got that ESC cap, probably UKKeycaps.

Very happy with the result, lubed clears are my first choice for HHKB imitations and plate aligns very well with the low profile case.

I dub it DAS HHKB.

My poker 2 with Cherry MX clears.
Does anyone have a mac "command key" for it?

As my HHKB never gave me an endgame feeling I finally dressed my Whitefox in PBT dyesub. Although, somehow I want o rings on it, but not those soft ones I have.

Has anyone experience with really hard ones? 70-100A?

I see countless images like that and I can't help but think of this:

It is interesting to see this HAD with ANSI modifiers; while I have an ANSI with ISO mods, LOL.

Where did you get that row 3 \| ? Is it doubleshot or dyesubbed ?

ideus · 02 Nov 2016, 03:21

I got it in the last Retro GB, that by the way appears to have some left-overs of this particular set, I suggest you to contact the OP in case you want some.

Awesome, thanks for the links. I need to lurk on GH more for stuff like this.

ideus · 02 Nov 2016, 14:31

They have confirmed that ISO sets are available, but hurry.

Keycap cleaning time

And those plates need a good cleaning, too.

Ooh all those greens.
Seeing alps yellows makes me remember how I lost a bid for 1200 new old stock ones for $20. It will haunt me for the rest of my life.

And, I announce my application for membership in topre/hhkb club. Note the leit motif of daisy-chaining is present here as well

I actually might like these things

Meet the Buckling Barcodes

I got the M122 without keycaps, so I had to fill it with what I got. If anyone has a spare 122 set, ping me up. F122 is ANSI-moded, Unsaver and M122 are next in line.

All these keyboards have 270 degree 5-pin DIN connector and barcode labels on the back.

Thanks to Zaphir I was able to get a nice Tai-Hao Raindrop keyset for my Filco:

@zslane: I like the industrial Duck. The color accents are a great idea with that overall color scheme.

zslane · 13 Nov 2016, 20:07

To be honest, I like the sound and feel of PuLSE on my Filco MJ2 more, but the Industrial Duck is a quite a nice board overall. It has a strangely hollow sound to it, which I find odd, and I don't think it is because of the keycaps. Despite that, the visual aesthetics are quite nice--I think Industrial SA looks really good on a white board.

Those 2 model Ms I got mostly by accident

And I want to add that M122 is a really undervalued board. Sure, it's not an F, and It has its drawbacks if you want to use it when gaming, but other than that it's really a quality battlecruiser which you can get for real cheap. Probably best bang for the buck you can get.

A bit of Alps-y goodness from an old Canon typewriter.

hypkx · 14 Nov 2016, 06:56

From which model number are the keycaps?
