thanks ill be careful

thanks :)

Have you tried gaming on any on of the Nuphy?

Keychron K series are quite cheap in my opinion, but only compared to more premium entry level custom stuff like the Q1, Akko Mod 7, or other aluminum offerings from companies like Novelkeys or KBDFans. The aluminum frame is very thin and the bottom is still plastic so it doesn't sound great, and modding did not have much of an effect in my experience (I picked up a K4 about a year ago, tried adding tempest mod, switch pad foam and case foam and it still sounds IMO too loud and just kinda nondescript). It is a good starter board to help figure out what you like though. I generally recommend prebuilt Ducky Ones as peoples' first boards in to the hobby, if they're not sure what they want.

I use keychron OSA at work. Love the shape. Also just used the Keychron K Pro Silver in a build. They feel nice to type on

Should make a nice board with those parts :)

I would say so, i myself have a keychron k6 and its very nice, im just gonna warn you, if you open it up be careful about where the modeswitches are, mine broke off when I tried to put it back together so now I cant switch through modes or swap between mac or windows mode so be careful. Otherwise good luck, its gonna be great

But that's fine, right? Everyone is aware of all the endless amount of keyboards you can buy under $100.

On the fence regarding centric position for arrows. Not gonna be pretty ergo.

did you do it in wired mode? With wireless it will not work.

An alternate solution to that would have been to use a Mod Tap command on your left Shift key.
That would let it do Shift when held, and \| when tapped.

The only downside I see to that solution is it would require you to hold the Right Shift key, while hitting the Left Shift key, to type the | character.
That should seem at least relatively natural though, assuming you don't use Left Shift to type your shifted characters on the left side of your board.

Looks like the lesson is be extra gentle with mechanical keyboards or else go for PBT.

Ayyyy Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing. That took me back

Wait, you mean most people look at their keyboards? Even amongst the under 50 crowd?

lets not simply blame 'cheap' keycaps, ive had a couple, well 3 cap stems fracture on my GMK bento set using BobaU4t and another time b4 with glorious pandas. go figure it was caps like lctrl, right win and backspace (this one i get) in comparison my cheap sets have had 0 issues with these switches.

😂

Relatable ._.

You could do something really close to that layout with an XD75.

I really struggled with not having the \| left of the Z key, so I settled for moving that row 1U right (V is under G). I can understand how that feel horrible to others, but I found it the best compromise for me. My left 2U is space and right 2U is enter.

Maybe you should design your own pcb! I've managed to design one without any previous expeirience pretty easily. It really makes the build that much easier, and it's cheap aswell at only 20$ for 5 pcb's if you order at jlcpcb.

Miserable black

Looks like a Meiosis

TX Stabs is the only stabilizer kit that for some reason don't need any lube to be tick / rattle free.

Meanwhile, if I want to "save" money, I'd go with Cherry Clip Ins because TX Stabs apparently sell better than literal cookies and Durock V2 is more expensive and needed a lot of tuning to be tick free anyways.

Wire stabilizing works a hell lot more than I thought it would be.

Especially when the lube fails. Turns out, the wires were off balance.

So, I think the debate has been raging on, I've my fill with the clusterfuck of "buying clones is evil."

But in any case, not sorry for being callous, it is what it is. On the other hand, there had been other keycaps that are not double shot but seemed to be thick plastic on the stems. For example, Shenpo and Xiami.

Still, they are mostly beige colored. Or... if you have Kailh Box or (AFAIK) Cherry MX Clears with extremely tight fit, that can happen.
