This looks like a spaceship. And I want it
Aqua kings are so nice, and they’re great with RGB. I’m also all for pre lubed switches! Super cool keeb.
Nice!
This board is awesome
After a day or lubing filming caps , and tuning stabs. I got to putting the caps on this board only to realize I don’t own any kits that have a 2 u shift key rip. My current solution is order some cheap artisan’s and call it a day I’m open to suggestions though
This is an incredibly general rule, but assuming that the person you are dealing with on mechmarket has an established history, I’d say it is pretty safe. This hobby tends to attract those who care far more about the community over scamming someone out of a single keyboard/whatever. Something about the saying you can shear a lamb many times?
Of course with how much the hobby has grown, that certainly isn’t always the case. Just keep an eye out and make sure they have plenty of cred.
Nothing fancy internally but I wanted to show off the new caps!
GK61 board with optical Gateron yellows. I have a minor tape mod on the bottom of the board and some foam in the base and it filled out okay but she a looker
This is a sick looking build. Those caps are something else.
I will ask: what’s with the guild cap box with no cap?
I have a whole plan for this Gilded Cap that has become some kind of self induced torture at this point but until Sept. 30th 2022 it’s…
Love these caps and matching cable, really cool look.
*Edit - Wow I am a fool, I just realized the wrist rest has little swimming sharks. Amazing. 11/10
@Millons Yea, they are little hammerhead sharks swimming from left to right.
I absolutely love your wrist rest! Burl wood (?) as the shoreline with the epoxy blue ocean. Great idea! Great execution!
Oh, I just noticed the hammer-head shark enter key. Super nice touch!
@qwilum It is a wrist rest I got on etsy made by “Setupaholic” (www.etsy.com/shop/Setupaholic). It is made of Wood / Resin here is the direct link: Shark Ocean Wood Resin Wrist Rest | Keyboard Wrist Rest I just ordered a custom size to fit the Q2 perfectly.
I see a lot of builds that incorporate color and accessories well, but this is just beautiful. The lighting, cable, and the wrist rest just take this up so many levels. Seriously, that wrist rest is the perfect accessory to pair with the Hammerhead caps.
OH Dang! I really wanted to buy that board, but I just can’t quite justify a 60% yet. If they ever make a 65% I’m totally in! You should definitely post it once you get it set up!
