Keyboard Build:
Futuristic punk
You may recall a similar keyboard to this from a previous build. That build was a success with it’s MT3 profile key-caps and sleek looks, however that shape has always had a bit of a “cyber-punk” vibe to me. So what could be more appropriate than some neon colored key-caps to build on that vibe? …
Keyboard Build:
All-metal 60%
One of the most important characteristics of any keyboard is it’s build quality and I have to say it’s pretty apparent here thanks to its full aluminum construction. The case is aluminum as well as the plate is aluminum making it incredibly rigid and sturdy – and maybe a little heavy too, but that always means less sliding around on your desk! …

MT3 profile on a “Tank”
Like many, I always had a thing for the old IBM keyboards with their robust structure and tall key-caps and I guess that’s what drove me to the concept that resulted in this keyboard’s existence. It had to have a bulky yet futuristic design, be solid, have tall retro-looking key-caps without being excessively loud. …

MDA profile on Linear Switches
ersonal preference has always gone the way of the tactile switch however it is clear that in certain scenarios linear switches can definitely have the edge over tactile switches in regards to response times and their overall quietness. …
Keyboard Build:
Tactile Black & Maroon
After much time spent testing a combination of lubed tactile switches, I incorporated that same logic to this build. Modifiers and function keys got switches with a snappy tactile bump and 2-stage springs whereas all other keys got a more subtle tactile bump resulting in slightly quieter key-presses. This worked wonderfully with the modified case and stabilizers. …
Keyboard Build:
Keeping ’em Low and Tactile
Box switches with a snappier feel were installed on all the modifier and function keys whereas a slightly more subtle tactile switch was installed for all other keys. The mixed tactile switches teamed up with the low-profile XVX Profile key-caps along with modified and re-lubed stabilizers made for an extremely pleasant typing experience. …
Keyboard Build:
Return of the Silent Clicky’s
After a couple of builds that came out sounding and looking rather similar, I felt it was time to offer something a little different. I’d always wanted to build a custom keyboard that would mimic the keyboards of old with white and grey key-caps, but felt the interest in these was rather limited. The solution was offering a retro-looking keyboard with some color in a package that would not only sound great but also offer wireless capabilities. …
