Got a light box to take pictures of the things I make! Resin can be frustrating at times but the more I make the more I learn. It also gives me an excuse to buy glitter and a way to actually use it that won’t end up on the living room floors of people I love.

me and my 150 friends

in the past few years i've gotten really into mechanical keyboards, especially custom mechanical keyboards. if you're interested in keebs, or if you have some pain in your hands and you're looking for advice on alternative keyboards that will hurt your hands less, let me know! i'm always happy to talk about this with people.

oh, and if you only have the use of one hand, i know some great one-handed typing options as well! in particular check out artsey.io.

Look at all these awesome keebs! The split ergo life (or ortho) is a journey but if you suffer from RSI, like carpel tunnel, it's worth trying. I have been into keyboards for a good long while now but it's only been in the last six months that I've been into ergo and ortho hard core and it all started because my day job has given me the gift of two different repetitive stress injuries. OP is awesome for sharing this collection and it has inspired me to take some photos if mine.

My “Ska!” compilation (more affectionately known as my skampilation lol) enjoy!

SOMEONE ASKED ABOUT MECHANICAL KEYBOARDS

Oh god where to even begin.

I consider custom keyboards to be in that specific niche of "luxury functional" devices. Folks may recall I got mine basically as a gift from my very very kind followers when I was in the midst of writing KTOWL on a fucking cramped Surface keyboard that was actively fucking up my wrists. I wanted to get something that was a meaningful investment, that I could use to write a metric fuckton of words without worrying so much about fucking RSIs.

And now I have TWO because my bro Treeprince bought me another, so I have one for work and one for writing and they are fantastic.

Top: NovelKeys NK87 Entry Edition kit, Jukebox MT3 keycaps from Drop, Akko Wine Red pre-lubed switches. Bottom: NovelKeys NK65 kit, Timeless Violet Cherry keycaps from Keebmonkey, NK Silk Olivia pre-lubed switches (included in kit).

Okay so what the fuck does that mean?

When you get into this hobby, you are probably going to first Buy a completed keyboard kit then modify it to your tastes later. This is what I did! I got the NK67 Olivia Kit, which came as a full assembled ready to go keyboard in a cute carry case, and I plugged it in and I started typing! Then I bought another keycap set and then Andy got the MT3 Jukeboxes so Tree got me another kit and blah blah.

Once you have a keyboard, the physical case and the brain/PCB you can swap out two things: Keycaps and Switches. This is where the heavy customization come into play.

Lets talk about Switches first.

Good post with some good information. Feel free to hit me up if you're new to the hobby. We were all keeb newbs once and there are some really awesome resources out there.
