I would suck someone's dick for that SSK, Unicomp or not.
Caleb Sanchez
looks shit
Alexander Gutierrez
make one yourself. the instruction to do so are on deskthority

John Robinson
that's unicomp for ya
Jack Young
you look shit to
Thomas Wood
>be me president of unicomp >started my company because I supposedly like keyboards >see people online paying massive amounts for the ssk >have the tooling to make a repro ssk with authentic keycaps and buckling springs >decide not to do it because I just fucking HATE money.
they lost the tooling tho so they have to make almost everything from scratch.
Tyler Green
what in the fuck are you on about you take the original tooling for the model Ms that they make, print out a different mold for the case and make the pcb accordingly smaller. It's not fucking rocket science
Thomas Long
you say that as if $200,000 is a small amount of money. it would take unicomp decades to recoup that money based of the current volume they sell. If they sold more keyboards they'd do it, but the demand is just not there
Anthony Carter
>print out a different mold for the case You don't just print out the fucking tooling for injection molding, nigga.
Christian Martinez
>be me still president of unicomp >realize that I would need a new mold if I want to sell $200 keyboards to autists >call up buddy in Guangzhou (a city in china) >he tells me that he can make a new mold for me, but it'll cost a WHOPPING $20 bucks >FUCK.jpg >tell him to kindly forget about it, that's way too much for me to spent on such an en devour.
>too expensive You can get the parts for fairly cheap off falbatech. Even including the caps & switches you'd still end up a considerable amount less than a new advantage.
Eli Jenkins
so I buy the mould from ergo-dox, then buy the keycaps and switches at falbatech?
Sebastian Garcia
You could get everything, including the case, switches, and caps from falbatech if you really wanted. Switches you could probably get cheaper elsewhere (or maybe get some type they don't stock). They only have DSA sets though.

Caleb Ramirez
The bottom row is the only good thing about JIS layout.
Easton Miller
all cherry keyboards lag 30ms thou so they cant be top tier.
Colton Gomez
>e(((((sports)))))
Ryan Allen
Any keyboards with this layout? You using those meme optical switches?
Hard at work trying to get these old Razer keycaps to shine evenly. They're laser infill and on the keys with the most use it's worn away and left indentations.
these are alps. if they're black that seems like a reasonable price.
Christian Cook
I have more keycaps than I need already. I like to rotate them.
Robert Brown
What's lmao? The alphas will get there if I use these the rest of the year. Symbols and numbers might get there if I start programming heavily again.
Alexander Gray
Hey if the guy who is looking for a cheap board with retro color keycaps is still around you should buy one of the sabre 60%'s from originative. They come with high quality epbt retro color keycaps and you can get actually decent tactile switches in mod-m or mod-h
Elijah Scott
I love you
Carson Gonzalez
I've got a vortex race 3 and my function keys suddenly require holding Fn to be used on the default layer. Anyone know how to turn that off? I can't find the setting in the manual, I'm not really sure what I've done.
Chinks have cloned the following: >MX switches >Alps switches >Topre switches >Hall effect switches Why the fuck haven't they done a proper buckling spring clone yet?
I got a japanese apple IIGS keyboard with ALPS switches for 2 dollars from a garage sale. Has anyone got experience doing plastic whitening? The keycaps are also ABS, unlike the US version. Will retrobrite delete the printing on the keycaps?
Dominic White
What’s the printing method?
Lucas Jackson
I think they're pad printed, since they appear to have a clearcoat over the lettering that shines a little under bright light. Also, the plastic inside and around the lettering hasn't yellowed at all.
Adrian Thompson
>GMK sells abs 9009 set for 180 dollaroos >more shekels if you want novelties >KBDFans looks and says lol >make PBT set for 119 dollaroos >includes multiple extra keys I fucking love our chink overlords
Can we talk about how amazing the g413 is? >1.4 mm key-travel >low force activation >sturdy construction >has nice light that can be toggled off for stealthy look >god tier logitech software
>Romer-G Is this bait? That switch feels like my fingers are going through sand. >sturdy construction >floating keycap design so your switches can get shit in them. >has nice light that can be toggled off for stealthy look Every keyboard with lights let u do that....
She was chemical engineer responsible for the supervision and safety of 10k tubes inside two hectares, the chinks bought the whole plant cut into pieces and transported it to china. low replaceable job indeed.
Lucas Foster
>That switch feels like my fingers are going through sand. I had the CM Masterkeys Pro L with cherry red switches. I had to get rid of it because after 20 min of using my armpit hurted so bad.
Brayden Gutierrez
Then I am sorry for your loss. Hopefully, with her career, she found another one easily.
Josiah Hill
Pretty sure that is more about your posture than the actual switch.
Hunter Kelly
Apparently KBDfans has cherry RGB compatible switches. Did cherry stop the exclusivity rights with cooler master or whatever company?
Jason Thompson
nah cherries are easy to get a hold of. There are tons of aliexpress sellers who sell it. It is just pricey and literally no reason to get them now that gaterons exist.
Benjamin Rivera
I was under the impression that gaterons 'weren't as good' in simplest terms. I currently have gateron blues in my keyboard but have been also wanting cherry blues for a while now.
Jayden Nelson
I thought they were dome with slider? Also the fucked up arrow keys and short shift, plus the fact that I need a AT -> PS/2 then a PS/2 -> USB active adaptor probably means that it's only gonna have 2KRO
Matthew Russell
Cherry blues are the only somewhat decent one cherry has. Gateron beats them in all other departments including greens.
Wyatt Lee
My keyboard is dying (MS ergonomic). /mkg/ recc me a good keyboard. that's preferably: >quite >comfortable >all the buttons in the world >cheap side sub $100 US
Levi Taylor
>quite You mean quiet? Well at that range you can't buy topres. Maybe some zealios.
II would recommend a fullsize gmmk with box burnt oranges or zealios.
Wyatt Williams
Well Satan, thanks for the advice. Assuming it would just be a waste of money to go with cherry blues if I already have gateron?
Cameron Lopez
I don't think it would even be a significant upgrade to be honest... I would try the new box switches everyone is raving about or buy a model m for cheap if you want something clicky.
Jaxson Barnes
>short-throw >software yuck
Nicholas Morales
Yes meant quiet. Also I can spend a little more, but like nyone would prefer to spend less. I was looking at Matias Ergo Pro vs Kinesis Freestyle Edge Split Gaming Keyboard or mybe even Wooting One. My current KB is literally on it's last.
Julian Davis
>Well Satan reddit
Nolan Edwards
Thanks You need to go back.
Gavin Hill
>Matias Ergo Pro matias have issues with their switches, but their quiet ones are pretty good albiet a bit scratchy.
>Kinesis Freestyle Edge Split Gaming Keyboard I only heard good things about them, but they are mostly in mx variant switches..
Also I am pretty sure these exceed 100 usd.
Jace Peterson
>Also I am pretty sure these exceed 100 usd. Yea. I didn't realize that that's the price to pay for a decent keyboard nowadays. I posted sub $100 before looking at prices.
However it seems to be incompatible with ISO somehow.
Noah Bailey
Ducky uses the same keyboards for all their one 2 models. Makes it cheaper to manufacture, so no it has no LEDs and the keycaps aren’t translucent even though they may look like they are
William Gomez
isolet, whats next! you voted for Merkel?
Camden Wilson
dont diy lol of all the choices you have dont diy unless you want something really insane
Logan Cox
why are you telling him this? he wants a 60% one of the most moded keyboards out there, he can have what ever case he wants, he has several types of pcbs to choice, switches and keycaps instead of buying a mediocre keyboard in black and then investing 100$ because the keycaps are shit
Adrian Thomas
Just tried some box burnt orange switches and they feel amazing honestly. How are they in comparison to zealios though and is it better to get these switches for a board since zealios is pricier? I’m leaning towards this or the heavier zealios switches.
Joseph Anderson
Guys I bought 2 ErgoDox EZ's about 2 months back and I feel like I'm still not up to pace as I was when using my HHKB. Did I fuck up or should I look into remapping my layout?
Lucas Martinez
you fucked up and bought a meme keyboard to replace your meme keyboard
