I cleaned your link: https://novelkeys.com/products/b-stock-aluvia-keycaps
You should edit your comment with this link
Next time you can remove all the trackers (everything starting with “?”) so it works better for everyone without keeping USD, etc.

Reply to comment by BarrettCreative in GMK Stealth…keycaps so stealthy I forgot I ordered them by BarrettCreative
oo sweet! it's hard to tell from this angle. The board turned out awesome. I'm kind of mad for not pulling the trigger on the group buy now.

Yep. Kohaku + bcp + PC staebies + gmk yuru. I still want something like gmk burgundy or demon sword oath kit.

I did some minor mods to my Dygma Raise and put Bobagums in it. I've typed on a lot of keyboards and I just don't have any desire for anything different or more.
I won't ever reach trackball endgame, but that's a totally different story.

I have more of an idea of what I don't want more than what I do. I have a GMMK Pro and I'm in a love hate relationship with it. I hate that it doesn't have 10 keys - I'm an excel girlie and not having that is a nightmare. I have the separate number pad, but it's just not the same as them being connected.
I want a full size layout and then some. I want an aluminum case, preferably wireless, a knob. Same RGB layout as GMMK pro. (Basically the base GMMK full in aluminum with a knob (if you're listening Glorious!))
I've reached switch utopia with Kailh Box Whites.
Keycaps I don't think I'll ever hit utopia with, but that's mostly because I like changing the the look of my desk a lot color wise. My ice white keyboard and rgb aura white caps get me close with color changing, but I find myself drawn to keycaps. 😂

The desire to want never ends, most people probably never reach their true endgame they just conceed once they realize how much they spent on shit they never needed in the first place

Thats a risk with most group buy companies, something happens after the warranty period and you're basically shit out of luck

If OP attached a photo of vegetable oil instead of dielectric grease, replying with “could but shouldn’t” is as absurd.

Reply to Keycaps with japanese legends by zShujin
Bit off topic but for people who have Japanese on their keycaps does anyone actually use them for Japanese and if you do, does it help. I’ve just been using the built in english to hiragana but if it is significantly faster I’m willing to learn a layout

I had like 5 keycaps wrong from KPRepublic in my order & it took them shipping replacements 3 times to get a complete correct set

You never reach the endgame. You just run out of money.

Blank Keycaps via Etsy
I have super strong childhood memories of the old Imagic Atari carts, and I wanted to sort of pay tribute to the dark/light/rainbow color scheme they would use.
I used some really deep 80's style lighting here, plus a nice visual of my desk for that all important wood grain.

I am about to achieve End Game status. Waiting for a Fossil full-size to arrive.
Here's how:
My friends told me that no one will ever make a quality full size board that it's simply too expensive and there would be no market for it.
I bought a NovelKeys NK87 and an external number pad (my home keeb).
Then I was alerted to the Canonkeys Rekt1800 and my friends said, "Wow this is as close as you'll ever get to a full size". This is my work keeb at the office.
Then I stumbled onto the Fossil Group buy and should have it by the end of the Summer.
Will likely give the Rekt180 to my Wife BUT really like the config I put on it with Laser R2 and matching a Shi-Shi and Watcher - I think I will move that to the Fossil.
End game for me is:
Fossil Full Size (Black)
Zeal Roselio switches (I like quiet)
Zeal Stabs
Laser R2 w/ the Shi-Shi & Watcher
​
BTW - not knocking my friends at all. They have been super helpful throughout my 2 years in this hobby!

You're very far advance. I got this hot-swap version just because the 1st K5 doesn't have the kickstands. 😬

Reply to My Idobao id42 socket completely fell off and the right space bar doesn’t work. Tried fixing it but it didn’t work. Anyone know where I can get another pcb because from what I’m seeing I can only buy another full kit by Linear4life
If you can figure out what the PCB layout is you can use some little pieces of wire to jump to the correct places. That's typically what people do when the pads get pulled off with the socket. I would bet the right pad was connected to the diode right above it.
I know it doesn't help now (and I wouldn't be too hard on yourself about it, everyone who uses hotswap boards will probably have this happen to them eventually), but you really need to be careful and support the socket from the back when you put in the switch.
