Mhh, why did I buy so many keycaps?

Already regretting buying only ~2 sets... really want a 40% board and should have bought that in addition to the TKL and HHKB.

Finally got a spare moment to get everything working! Ordered an Adafruit programmer and put that together, built the toolchain and the tools to compile and flash the TMK firmware onto my Nerd60. It has lubed Clear switches with 62g springs.

Thanks to xauser for the keymap and helpful pointers ...

I couldn't bear losing that key left of 1, myself. Command + ` = cycle through app windows for me. I use it almost as much as Command + Tab for switching apps. Adapting to tilde on the right end of the number row on the HHKB was one of the harder things about that little board. I'd already trained ...

also, can't wait to put together my set on my GON 60. with fatty ISO return key too :p

still have most of the switches to solder on...

Hmm, the numrow legends look really wonky on your pics, rindorbrot. For example the 2 sits much lower than the 3 and the 7 and 8 look way smaller than the rest. Is that the case or is it just an optical illusion?

quite a bit of lens+perspective distortion making it appear as if the keys are ...

The other day, I wondered, have we passed a sixth of a decade yet?

Haha I was totally going to buy it. I want that deep middot row 3...

If you hit all the keys at once, how many satellites could you launch?

Not as many as my co-workers, in fact they do most of the work.
That's why they always urge me to start using a proper keyboard instead of that space saver.

is that a MS Word 2.0 button??

The key caps should ship within this week. Not sure if they arrive within this week. But I will surely have them next week.

but then


Yes, but payment took a bit longer, but now they should be shipping during next week.

Hoping I'll have a full keyboard by June. Maybe I should ...

All your avatars remind me of rugs.

I think the last one is by Gerhard Richter, a very high-priced living painter. And yes, it`s a painting... :D

Whoops I probably would've gotten it too (missed it).

Holy shit, totally recognized your username... this is very very funny.

Though I don't want to derail the thread, it's already pages long so here goes... I think there are a bunch of things being mixed together here... My take:

* in the US you're more likely to find small operations especially for market niches like SP is filling.
* there aren't consistent quality ...

Wow... those would be great caps. It's a fine line between WTF and FTW...

I've told them not to use that bigass-font on some of the keys, but nobody seems to read my messages:

Also, DOWN and RIGHT on that RAS pic, and maybe UP (I can't tell...)

Jeez thanks for doing this all. What a pain!

Not that it would probably help much but I don't recall seeing DVORAK/COLRAK kits

Had to occupy myself with some R3 blanks and 7x spacebar from SP Now I can solder double checking the placement of modifier and space bar switches too

++ That dot key is FORTY's star.

I almost ordered it for the dot, plus 150 tab and so on to get back to HHKB layout. :) But went back to HHKB.

Resorted to a funny table in google doc to figure out how many caps to cover each key to make sure I got em all... Trying to think through it all in my ...
