For those of you that want to get in on Matias switches. If you're in the US, the total comes out to $124 if you get the black/white keycaps.

I do like alps/matias...

But I need an ergonomic design, and still can't seem to part with my apple adjustable keyboard

I really need to take some better photos of this keyboard I'm making for @Vitalius

-snip-

If I had money I'd say make me a tenkeyless one. :P I have two mechanical keyboards already, a Code V2 with MX Clears, and a Nighthawk x7 with MX Blues for my other rig... Except that had pop spill on it and quite a few switches no longer function how they used to. :(

then fix the damn thing

Idk, like 5 keys are failing.

Might be the controller itself.

And I have been away the past 3 weeks.

But yeah, seems like it's the controller that is failing

using a multimeter to continuity test the switches to check if the switches are the problem

OK.

I don't have a multimeter, but I'll get one, seems like there are many uses for one

Hello, glad I found this thread.

I have a Filco Majestouch 2 TKL, a Ducky Pro TKL and a Ducky Zero. They are all Browns and I love each one.

The feel on the Filco is my favorite, it's not quite as "wooden" as the Ducky keyboards. It has a bit of play here and there which gives it some character. Thinking about PBT keypads for it.

Looking for a very simple good quality keyboard but not to expensive, basically the raw chassis so i can get key caps of my liking, play around and have some fun on the modding scene  ...

 

preference> CHERRY REDS...

 

ansi ou iso.. basically a nice layout that has plenty key caps choices  with easy identification single or full key sets 

 

NO back lighting or maybe just maybe white ......

 

 

 

stores in Europe, but US is not out of the question   

 

what do the mech gods recommend ?

The problem is price wise is it worth it? I can get a ozone strike battle cherry red for 75 euros no shipping costs my only doubt is the keycaps if they are standard or have variations and hard to find... I don't know if you now the ozone model I am talking about if you could check it out and tell me you're opinion

Ducky Year of the Goat has just been teased on Ducky's facebook page.

 

I was wondering where I'll be able to get on with an Nordic ISO layout. I used to buy at Teraset.net but they've seized their international shipping...

 

So can anyone recommend another store where I can get and reserve the Ducky special edition keyboard with a Nordic ISO layout?

Why didcha have to do that? I haven't dropped by here for a while, thought I'd have a look and see your post. Now, I like it, I like it a lot! :wub:  Only snag is, I'm more into 60% boards and TKL at the very largest.....so I may not get it.
