Is this what the winga-dinga generation feels when they see a nice hot-rod roll by?

My desktop has the same basic config at the moment. A fall-back Drop ALT while I learn how to use my new Corne in the recent tenting IMK case. Those thumb clusters though! And the extreme curve to the alphabet rows… very interesting! And what are those two mirrored dials or joysticks? Love it!

The wife got me this sweet new deskmat and a KBDPad MKII for Fathers Day. I built it up with Hyperglides that have been lubed wit h205g0 and have a 67g, 2 stage long spring in them. It’s nice to have a proper numpad for work use.

One hell of a mat.

totally agreed- I want one of those…!

Got a PCB that allowed me to convert my Klippe to a gummy worm mount similar to a Bakeneko or Unikorn. Short Build Log

Overall, I am pretty happy with this build.

The sound is the biggest improvement. Surprisingly, I would say that the board had more flex with my POM plate as a tray mount. I removed the center stand-offs, so there was a lot of flex in the middle as a tray. It was more focused around the space bar and above in a bell curve type shape. The gummy worm mod seems to be more bouncy and flex-y consistently across the whole board. Not sure if changing my o-ring material or hardness would have an effect on the flex. Anyone with experience on this want to weight in?

Thanks!

This is amazing and stuff I absolutely love about this hobby. :star_struck:

I missed the last Klippe drop (huge regrets) but still wanted to try and o-ring a tray mount. I picked up one of those older anodized cases since they had similar stand-offs along the top and bottom of the case edge where the Tofu looks to have machined them away to make room for the battery or something.

I hope this will make for a decent substitute. Do you have a storefront link for the PCB?

Unfortunately I don’t. However I can provide you with these IC links. One is for the PCB I received, and another was a similar effort but by someone else.

The Merro60 stated that he was hoping to run the GB around August. Sounds like some RL issues pushed it back.

So, after a bit of tweaking, I think this board is in a good place. Serendipitously, the coating on this Wave keycap nicely matches Synthwave.
