Reply to My first keyboard that isn’t a “gamer” brand. I plan on switching out the key caps and getting a better wrist rest by Shoto48
I use the same board at work and type a lot of text 9h a day. I really think it’s an awesome choice, also for gaming. Very comfortable. Enjoy OP!

I chose the PC over FR4 as I've built way too many (hundreds) of FR4 sandwich keyboards, and don't care for the feel or sound whatsoever anymore. It's got a good amount of flex using the gasket mount.
IMO - FR4 plates are only good purely for how cheap they are, nothing more.

Nice. How's the typing experience on the PC plate? Do you know if it differs a lot from the FR4 plate?
Planning on using lubed and filmed black ink V2s on mine.

All I can think of when looking at this set are those old fruity pebbles commercials where that little shit Barney kept stealing Fred's god damn fruity pebbles.

I had some Boba LTs about a year ago and they did not have any ticking or additional noise. I’m sorry to hear you are having issues with them.

Nice! I left the HHKB layouts to my HHKB, WKL felt more true to the G80 this was styled after - the sound with Gateron Pro Silvers on this board is superb (I used the PC plate)

I thought the keyboard has a bad odor because of the caption and not knowing which sub this post is from hahahaha

It's KAT Space Cadet - less expensive (still expensive lol), but I still would replace it with SA in a heartbeat if I found a set.

I don't remember the plate supporting stepped caps (I could confirm later on the FR4 plate), but they have released stepped caps plate files for you to get your own made - I think the PCB does, it's the same PCB as the new Tofu (2.0? I'm not totally sure) PCB

Just received my hhkb variant of the OG60 Retro. Build quality is fantastic. Looking forward to building it up this weekend.

Reply to Boba LT tick. Completely ruins the switch. by showxdoat369
Did you make sure to lube them “the gazzew way”? If you don’t, it damages the leaf which can lead to reduced tactility or ticking.
