Now the theming is all tied together! Beware of my dessert themed battle stations!

Olem, to c64

Oh yes, at long last the C64 keycaps from Jim Drew's Indiegogo campaign arrived! It was a long saga before they got here, the first parcel from the production company got lost along the way, but in the end Jim sorted it all out and sent me another one. These baby blue f-keys on my SX-64-themed C64C here are quite sweet, methinks 😁

Did anyone ever think about refinishing the base of a keyboard to make translucent shine brighter than in front of a black base? Well… here it is!

It‘s almost done. Just a couple of stickers and a badge. But nonetheless: This white with translucent red from Jim Drew looks just amazing!

I did it ... 😊 I could not leave it be...
I ordered custom printed #keycaps from WASD for my customized #chrumm #keyboard showing the full #NeoQWERTZ layout. 😅 Plus the keyboards first FN-layer.

They arrived .. today 😀 and they are beautiful. Came out much nicer and less chaotic than I feared. Even though #chaos, chaosknot and fairydust-rocket are part of the design 😁

On top of that, I added o-rings for a softer key-press bottom-out.

keycap design, remix at will: https://github.com/btittelbach/custom_printed_keycaps/tree/main

The photo shows a angled closeup of xro's custom Chrumm Keyboard with newly added custom printed keycaps. The chaos knot is used as symbol for "Alt" and fairy-dust is used as symbol for "Enter" while a gamecontroller is used as symbol for "Ctrl"

Well, I am feeling fancy. I added media keys to my split keyboard. I think it looks pretty neat.

Drop has a new dark Solarized (my open source colorscheme) keycap set. It looks great & is discounted right now. (No affiliation with this set, they produced it on their own. Not a sponsored post, this is just me proud that my colorscheme continues to be loved by many). https://drop.com/buy/drop-dcx-solarized-dark-keycap-set

Hey, pals!
Has anyone experience with FKCaps custom ?
https://fkcaps.com/custom/
I would live to create (and buy!) my own perfect set for my , but even though I'm aiming at DSA PBT, I'm wondering if laser-printed labels would last longer or not.
Are there similar alternatives to this service, with dye-sub or double-shot?

Vorrei cambiare alla mia meccanica, per . E su Aliexpress mesi fa diversi articoli avevano catturato la mia attenzione — sono veramente una marea, ogni volta che cerco “kawaii keycaps” lì sopra e scorro le immagini divento pazza. Solo che… da un lato costicchiano, dall’altro il mi piace, poi l’ è sempre bella, e questo genere di cose qui penso che si riesce ad averle di più a cuore se le si fa personali, rispetto a cosa il comprare la plastica prodotta in serie può mai dare alla nostra anima. Quindi, ormai voglio io ‘sti tastini. ✨️

Non mentirò che sono ancora più confusa ora, dopo aver fatto , rispetto a prima, perché ho trovato fin troppi e . Diciamo che quello che ho estrapolato è: posso con il cavolo che mi pare (tempere, pennarelli, vattelappesca), la pittura dovrebbe rimanere al suo posto, e però dovrei mettere qualche strato trasparente (chi si arrangia usa lo smalto trasparente, chi sa più cose dice che quello si fa brutto e dunque usa roba più strana che spero di trovare dal casalinghi, sennò amen). Per la base dei sarà un problema, perché non voglio rovinare i cappellini di fabbrica, quindi dovrò procurarmene nuovi… ma sono costosini anche quelli basici. Mi sa che ne prenderò e quindi personalizzerò pochi, almeno per iniziare. 🙄️

O ring time!

What's the point in buying a keyboard with quiet brown switches if I end up clackity-clacking anyway as the key hits the bottom of the downstroke?

Seems to be working :)

Post your daily driver keeb. Doesn’t have to be mechanical. Here’s mine (minus the artisans, they’re just window-dressing whenever I take it to meetups). #Mechanicalkeyboards #mechanicalkeyboard #mechkeys
