I was on Etsy looking for who knows what, when I stumbled on this. A bust and two shoulders across three keys has a fairly convincing look. This is the kind of kitsch I can really appreciate. Now if they’d just do a Zaku or something.
One of the things that I have been (somewhat) annoyed with is Key Cap storage. I hate having to sort through boxes to find the caps that I want… So, when I saw this I thought it looked interesting:
I like they way they stack, and being clear it should be easier to identify the key cap set I’m looking for.
I could be wrong, but these look like they’re the JTK ones (especially with the two sizes they offer). I didn’t look closely at pricing, but if you’re in the U.S., you should be able to find these locally if you don’t want to pay int’l shipping.
Interesting. I’ve looked around occasionally/ casually while browsing some of the keeb sites, and hadn’t seen a decent storage solution… But I’ll have a search for the JTK ones.
TaeKeyboards is still one of my favorite keyboard YT peeps. If y’all just want to chill out for a bit while still indulging your inner keyboard nerd, have a watch—
I know that Feker is their own company, not just a re-branded OEM item. I have about 8 of their keyboards here (particularly different versions of the Dopokey and Mengmoda), and all of the have PCB’s that are designed / manufactured by them.
The one thing that they do outsource is their firmware. Typically they’ve worked with a supplier named Wings Tech. So, having a version of one of their keyboards with QMK suggests either (a) Wings Tech or another firmware supplier has started producing QMK based firmware, or (b) Feker has brought some (or all?) of their firmware production in-house.
If you can’t tell, I know a bit about Feker’s keyboards, mostly because of the Dopokey and Mengmoda, which are the nicest 71-key layout keyboards I’ve been able to find so far, and surprising for this quality not the most expensive.
Honestly GL finding any sized L9 GMK spacebar, unless you get lucky & find someone who will part with one from a more recent set that used that color. OG & older GMK won’t work as they are both slightly off the current L9 IME.
It’s a little five-key macro pad - but two of the switches are the big Outemu ones (sized between normal switches and the Kailh / Ajazz giant switches).
