FILCO + original WYSE + moogle WYSE =)

Here are a couple pictures of my FILCO + original WYSE + moogle WYSE

They look great together and you cannot even tell the difference between them! Note that my original keys were new and have no fading or yellowing.

Thank you everyone who gave input on the color choices as they turned out to be a perfect match!

It's lighter and the line is thinner (on backslash). But man, does that setup look niiiice.

Quarzac · 30 Jun 2012, 23:37

I'm glad they came out well, and that you got them all in one piece. I feel kinda bad for the people who I didn't get to ship yet, but hey, there are only 3 of them.

Am I one of the three?
I did help in a little way with the colour selection

DanGWanG · 01 Jul 2012, 00:40

Looks good

That WYSE set looks awfully familiar!

hashbaz · 01 Jul 2012, 01:30

Looks fantastic!

actually the line's on backslash are the same on the original and moogle here. both are thinner than the lines on the keys next to them. I'll take a picture of this key original and moggle side by side

Sorry dirge! with GH dead, I couldn't look at the old post and I just remembered 7bit's pictures near the end

DanGWanG wrote:Looks good That WYSE set looks awfully familiar!

Actually these aren't yours even. these are the set I already had and have used for quite a while. The one from you has some weird keys I just saw after looking at them today for the first time.

Quarzac: Were these supposed to come with a tab key? I cannot remember and of course cannot look at the original post. Also what is the tiny 1.25 key with just an UP arrow?

Nah. The tab key idea was kicked around, but ditched because it changed the price too significantly. That little arrow key is an ISO left shift. In retrospect, it probably wasn't entirely necessary, since I only had 5 international orders, but we all know a separate ISO kit wouldn't have made it to production.

That set looks sick good dude.

dorkvader · 01 Jul 2012, 07:26

IS it just me, or was the enter key in the moogles printed with the arrow next to the "e"? For some reason, WYSE decided to put the arrow to the right of the "r". I much prefer this kit's version.

Quarzac, There were two more kits headed abroad that I took care of, bringing the total to at least 6 intl orders.

It's looking really good on my CMstorm, though I think it'll go better with a black case, I may transfer one (which is faster than swapping all the keycaps) from my other CMstorm (with reds)

Flynn: That's a good-looking setup! My caps (Unfortunately) are yellowed a little, but at least they're thick. It's very good to know the colours were spot-on, so now I know what to re-retr0brite them to. Looks great on your filco, though.

javifast · 01 Jul 2012, 08:58

Very nice keyboard. Maybe it could look better on a white filco board. But otherwise awesome keyboard.

AKIMbO · 01 Jul 2012, 15:51

Yes, the color matching was spot on imo.

My board with the WYSE Moogle kit ^

So I have to ask.. I just got my filco and I absolutely love your key style/color. Where can I get them? I was going to order the WASD with the same color layout style but went with the filco.

ZcHuer · 02 Jul 2012, 07:31

I used to have concerns for have white key sets on black keyboard, but from your picture, seems I don't have to worry any more. Now I am really expecting my cheese green double shot key set for my black Filco Ninja TKL.

The modifiers (CapsLock/LShift/2xControl/2xWin/1xmeta/2xAlt/RShift/Enter/|\/Backspace) come from the WYSE moogle group buy on GH. All the other keys are from an actual WYSE keyboard which you can get on EBay sometimes these days.

Correct. I kept my OG WYSE enter when I put on my moogle keys because of that.

Quarzac · 04 Jul 2012, 06:43

Yeah, my bad on that. I didn't even notice. Otherwise I would have had Melissa redo them when she was sending me all the keys she forgot to have made.

DanGWanG · 07 Jul 2012, 22:34

Thanks inlikeflynn

I know my home row is awesome.

Edit: BTW, if anyone has the correct home row for sale, hit me up please!

fossala · 07 Jul 2012, 22:47

I think these are looking better than cherry doubleshots.

nice looking Dan! glad they showed up already

I like the CC on there, I forgot to-do that in my pictures.

DanGWanG · 08 Jul 2012, 02:02

You could always take new pics

I spent all day taking pics today and dressing up my keyboards like a nerd. But it felt damn good.

OddOne · 09 Jul 2012, 18:58

I must say thank you to inlikeflynn as well...

They are all original Wyse (thin) key caps except for the bottom row and the caps lock. They keyboard is a Rosewill RK-9000 with Brown switches. I use this one at work and think the Wyse caps give it a very classy look!

edit: I should say thank you to Quarzac as well for running the GB. Thanks Quarzac!

Looking nice and classy there on the full size board OddOne! I normally don't like the look of full size boards, but this one I do like
