Honestly, the best pulls I have seen. Even the silk drys by themselves are better than what most people got.

Damn, the golden ticket pull this time around from what I've seen! NK Dry blacks & V2 black INKs, the latter is a really good score as I think Gateron stopped making the non box stem version of most INK switches. Nice score OP!

Very envious of this... Ended up with some Gateron Milky Greens (clicky). No boards I really fancy using them in. Congrats though!

Looks like you got the jackpot compared to most of the pulls I've seen around here.

Ok, lets try that without annoying the automod. It's the '149 Keys Similar Cherry PBT Double Shot Keycaps For Mx Switch Mechanical Keyboard Double Color Injection Black Yellow Keycap' from 'Lenovo Keycaps Store' on AliExpress.
As someone mentioned below they look to be based on the SA Strong Spirit (base set without novelties).

~£80 (~$96 at time of writing) but I think the Womier can be had cheaper if you get it directly from Womier (or maybe even Amazon if you're in the US).

I'm thinking about doing the same type of thing depending on cost, I'm a lurker in this sub. About how much was all the above?

Cheers! I was thinking of holy pandas (or as close as my budget would allow) as they seem to be recommended frequently but went with the bananas instead. Glad I did. Lubed they feel and sound very nice!

Had to look that up. Yeah, I suspect they are knock off versions, but solid!

I am a big fan of the Ajazz Banana switches, and I am loving the colourway of your board, nice work for your first build!

First time poster (please be gentle!)
My low budget entry into the world of keyboards. Thought I'd try out some cheap stuff before diving in at the deep end.
Keyboard: Womier WK61 (60% layout)
Switches: Ajazz x Huanno Diced Fruit Banana
Keycaps: Doubleshot PBT CSA profile
Stabs: Included plate mount stabs
Switches lubed with 3203, springs with GPL 105, stabs with dielectric grease.
Filled the base with an old, thick mouse mat which has given it a bit of heft and a fuller sound. The board came with a silicone layer between the plate and PCB which was unexpected. Feels nice and solid and has a nice sound to it (in my opinion).
Pretty happy overall. Only ever used MX Brown switches before and have been pleasantly surprised with how different the Ajazz switches have been.

Are ABS normally deeper sounding than PBT? I always forget...

Wow, nice pulls. I didn't think these switches were even in the pool this time. This is a lot closer to what I saw during the 2021 mystery switch drop.
