I hope this is the right thread for this
Nope, wrong thread! How could you post keyboards in a post your keyboards thread…
Hello son!
But you can’t see a whole lot of the boards
Thought it might be too “artsy” for this thread
Can I be your daddy?
Tofu?
Sure. I only require one TGR Alice with GMK Olivia to cover the adoption fees.
So I recently got my ePBT Slate kit. But then my girlfriend started complaining that I wasn’t using those “cute pink/salmon-colored keys” anymore. So I decided to combine the two.
Et voilà!
Who says our weird little hobby can’t be romantic, huh fellas?
I really like this color way. Slate goes with a lot of colors. I ended up using from accents from ePBT grayscale which also look really good.
What set are those from?
Yes, Slate is very versatile. The accents are from the ePBT 9009 set.
Norbatouch case round Pi with aperture finish and CM Masterkeys Pro S RGB innards with ePBT Slate caps and YOK holy pandas.
ALPS64, FR4 AEK plate, SKCM Browns, landing pads installed on plate for all stab locations, stabs lubed with EK mechlube 2, AEK caps, Godspeed Vader Keybuto III (thanks to a Nexus slider & top housing), & 5 degree case with sorbothane at the bottom.
I found that the typing experience with this setup in my ADK64 was too flexy. I didn’t realize it before that, but I believe ALPS switches need a very stiff & sturdy plate/case to feel their best. This build feels a good bit better to me the way it is now. Also I found out having landing pads for ALPS stabilizers helps tremendously with their sound, no more sound of plastic slamming off the plate! Although you do have to use a pretty thin material for the landing pads or they could affect key travel. I used some self adhering 1mm thick cork anti slip pads that I cut to size which are working great so far!
