I hadn't thought of Mitolet. I could see that working really well. I have 10 of them currently so if you want one PM or email.

Most interesting colors from a DMK set yet - a very good sign as that's currently one reason to not choose DMK over GMK in the world of ABS.

looks like a gmmk pro to me

Oi!

The stepped CAPS is my favorite part.

Also love seeing flipped spacebars. Best feeling spacebars!

May i ask what Keyboard this is pls?

Looks pretty good but why not go with a full grid layout?

what is this qwrpf layout?

Here you go. also, the keyboard can react to system sound to display RGB, which is pretty cool.

Here are some additional shots. I'm no photographer.

I would be super interested in getting this for a Laser or Mitolet cable

I have the same keys as you do. I think it might be a problem with the keycaps. When I use any other keycap set, it comes off without the switch being pulled with it. Might just be too tight in the stem.

Understandable

Can’t afford it but thank you.

I made it with parts I had available, but equated to the same design. Worked phenomenally. Swapped baseplates plates for actual bottom studded plates

Waiting for the same set! I hope it gets shipped soon.

Even with the issues r1 is still my favorite tactile switch. I'd I were you I'd just buy them cuz they will sell out.

Have you made a keyboard with these parts or is it still a proof a concept?

Want

Yes, what you said is exactly true. The plate material definitely affects flexibility. A PC plate will have greater flex than a steel plate. If you want greater flex, it is actually better to opt for a half plate or plateless build for maximum flex, but of course, you are sacrificing the stability of switches and sound. Of course, the mounting style also affects the flex. A gasket-mounted keyboard typically has greater flex than a traditional tray-mount keyboard. However, the plate material definitely affects it more.

Edit: Of course, I want to note that these assumptions are based upon the sources here: Ways to manipulate sound profile of keyboard: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_N8k0u75eLQ&t=603s&ab_channel=Keybored

Was bummed I missed out on these the first time they dropped.

But now, honestly pretty stoked these are landing with NovelKeys. The stock lube on their NK Silk Olivias are the best stock switch I've ever used, zero need to mod them. Hoping for more of the same with these switches and the partnership overall.

I’m sorry to hear, mine was simply pressing the contacts in further. I will say I am very disappointed as I didn’t get the brick that is supposed to be under the usb cord and they responded by saying they knew that kits were missing it but it was fine. So now I need to pay to source one brick because they don’t care, very disappointing.

Man, I still haven’t even gotten my shipping confirmation yet

Such a banger of a board.
