Fiancee has a GMMK v2 fullsize, currently with Box White switches and PBT pudding keycaps. She said she really likes heavier switches now that she's been using her Keynovo IF98 with Box Heavy Pale Blue (60g I believe). So, I will be refurbishing her well- used GMMK with Box Navy switches, and that Great Wave Off Kanagawa keycap set that I took off of my Keychron K8. Looking forward to how it turns out and if she likes it; it's not in my list in the spreadsheet but can be added once I finish it.

Thanks for the link. Got a lot of Kicking Horse coffee because of you guys in this thread. Maybe I'll check them out. What kind do you recommend? I would love a double shot espresso cappuccino that you mentioned, lol.

All way beyond me man, and my single serve Cuisinart I have every morning, french vanilla. And then a single cup of Columbian from the drip brew pot. I can say that I am pretty much addicted to Cameron's black masala chai with brown sugar. If you or anyone else isn't aware, putting milk in tea causes the milk to bond to the catechins and make them inert. So you don't get the health benefits that come from drinking tea if you add milk or creamer. No effect from chemicals like ECGC. Nevertheless, we have Half & Half to make chai lattes with.

Since my Keychron K8 Pro has custom Plum Crazy plastidip on the top plate, and I already have a Japanese art themed board with my GMMK full size, I decided to get some Kraken Keyboards keycaps for it. Before. After. Unfortunately the stock spacebar with this set broke (it was purple), but my wonderful fiance managed to dig up a black spacebar from God knows where so we used that. This is the set: Amazon.com T.LY

Cooler Master Mastermouse RGB. MM520 I think. I use a claw grip for games sometimes but also a palm grip for desktop Linux use. I *love* the ring finger rest on the side. Other people hate it and it confuses them and they end up turning it sideways either direction, kind of like that old Apple original iMac mouse that was a circle.

Had to look those up. Never heard of them. I guess the ones I saw were tactile. Also, they are shaped like Outemu switches, interesting. So I'm guessing you're after tactile switches. Any ideas on keycaps? If you want I have a big ass bag of Gateron yellows you can have for free. They're linear BUT until I looked it up I thought they were tactile. Actually feel pretty nice.

What switches are you considering, Pook?

Let us know what you end up going with for switches and keycaps. I also have the K8 Pro with Box Navy and Japanese art keycaps (that I'm considering changing to purple to match the purple plastidip on the board) I think you knew that already though since I think I recommended the Keychron K8 Pro to you.

For those with back or neck pain, or even pain in the limbs, this helps me a lot: Amazon.com A.CO Massage table warmer but you can use it as a heating pad. Just don't put it under your top sheet and try and use it as a mattress pad warmer or you'll fry it (this happened to one we gave to my sister).

It's perfectly understandable and (no offense) a generational thing and I think particularly with men. Don't sweat it. I can look up what having no spleen means or does to you on my own, or ask my mom who was a nurse for 25 years. Either way, I wish you the best of good health going forward.

Touche. This is off topic though, the weather is getting better here which might mean I can post some photos of me rockin' EHW shirts next time I post in this thread.

Damn I'm late In bigred

Thanks for sharing, guys. I knew most of speed_demon's issues from a Discord DM. Hope things get better for you soon. Jan, thank you for the story and effing ouch! You're tough to survive that. What kind of issues does not having a spleen cause? I am also disheartened to hear you had a hospital stay recently, but if you'd rather not share I can understand why. Me well, last year Sept. 8th I had surgery on my left hip to repair a torn labrum and hip cam and pincer impingement. It's helped significantly though I am still recovering so have some bad pain in it sometimes for a few days at a time. I did 4 months physical therapy twice a week as well (which more often than not set off the pain and made things worse). Long story short - I had physical therapy, I got an MRI and a CAT scan of my right hip and am due to have all the same surgeries on April 4th on my right hip. Followed by 5 months physical therapy. The left was done so now I'm set to do the right. Then we'll have to see about doing something for my neck pain, ECT wrecked my neck.

Lol I've done ones of myself before, they're buried somewhere in my poorly organized documents folder that I keep all my art projects in. Jealous of the beard too

I'm so confused lol

I still play a very old psuedo MMO called Phantasy Star Online Blue Burst. It's essentially a PC port of a Dreamcast game with a lot of added content. It's futuristic, 3rd person dungeon treks. You get lightsabers, light daggers, a ton of guns if you're a Ranger, etc. Pretty much a futuristic Diablo. the max level is 200 and I think my Hunter is 182 and my Ranger is 186. It's a pretty legendary game, being the first online game of its type on a console, and one with a 56k modem but the netcode was so good that the game didn't ever lag, constantly ran at 30fps, and you could kill waves of monsters with character positions and animation and damage showing etc. on a 56k connection. I'll post some photos of it maybe. I was playing this game a ton before I got addicted to Ragnarok Online, Lineage 2, and WoW.

Yeah I will have only be wearing mine every so often too. As far as the shipping goes, I actually got both my t shirts in like a week. I thought it would be like 2-3 weeks which is what my mug took, but the shirts showed up pretty quick. Maybe I'm near the supplier. Who knows.

I made a tiny EHW logo that I thought I'd share. I thought maybe other people would want to use it as an av, or use it on other sites. Here it is: tinyehw.zip

Yeah I have not washed mine yet. We're lazy so we usually don't sort our laundry and do it the right way by separating whites from colors I'm a little wary of washing these shirts and especially together (I got the plain white one with the simple logo, and the gray and red folding@home) because I'm afraid of making the white shirt all red if the ink leaks off the folding shirt. Any issues with color bleed when you washed them, Enterprise?

Warning: long post and massive image dump incoming Here's my detailed documentation of building and modding the Royal Kludge RK100. My comments will be below each image. Parts used: Royal Kludge RK100 XVX retro PBT keycaps ThreeBulls blue O-Rings Kailh Pro Light Green switches So this is what we're starting with. The RK100 in the Classic color scheme with ABS keycaps and RK blue switches (yes they make their own switches and you can get them on AliExpress) Sorry this one is sideways. I can't find it in my phone to fix it. Anyway, taking keycaps off and yeet them into a bag. Keycaps all pulled. The new keycaps. I am used to buying sets that cost twice as much and are PBT with dye sub characters or whatever. Those usually come in trays, already pre sorted to put on. So these will have to be sorted. O-rings. Switches direct from Kailh. Switches almost out. Here's the board. We could just put our new switches and keycaps on, but no, this is EHW so we won't just do that. We want to clip and lube stabilizers, and we're going to crack it open and check the inside out. The stabilizer for Enter. I was able to just pull them off the top plate very easily and didn't need to remove screws or detach the PCB. Turns out, it's already lubed and it's not like a Cherry stab so there's no prongs to clip. These really should be replaced by Cherry stabs. Maybe in the future. The board opened up. Look at this one layer of chintzy, cheap, thin foam. That won't do much to dampen noise or add weight. Underneath the foam. Battery and pcb for the USB ports. I use it wired so if the battery fails, no problem for me (though I'll have to remove it and replace it with a weight). Thin crafter's foam used for art. We used the existing foam as a template and drew areas to be cut out with a razor. It works and fits! Hurrah! I put the black foam over the crafter's foam. Starting to populate the board with switches. Also, I had to press down *really* hard on the top plate because of the added foam to get the screws back into it. Done. Even though they call them Pro Light Green they're a forest green. *Shrug* Sorry, didn't get any intermediate shots. Keycaps and o-rings on. My fiancee helped here with organizing the keycaps and putting them on. Big thanks as it made getting the keycaps and o-rings on go much faster. Done. As for my thoughts on it: it was a fun project. However, I am unhappy with the board, particularly the switches. I suppose the light green doesn't mean a color, the light part may actually refer to the sound of the switch. They feel nice to type on but are pretty quiet compared to all the box clicky switches. I think these would be good if you wanted to use clicky switches in an office or something. These feel pretty good and have good spring tension, they actuate at 45g. However the click bar must be super thin. The keycaps and look though, I love it. Definitely keeping the rest of the keycaps and if I want to I can make it more green in the future. Overall not bad for $126. Maybe in the future I'll change the switches to Box Heavy Pale Blue. Finally, a demonstration video. I hope you enjoyed my post and documentation of building this board. Thanks for reading. ~neuro

Yeah that's what damric said.

That was me. The 4oz option is 100% polyester. The 6oz option is ?. Flux's tee is one that was available sometime last year but got removed because the printing quality didn't live up to Enterprises standards. As far as the 6oz option it might be a cotton/polyester blend. @ENTERPRISE should really add this information to the description of the shirts so people know what they're getting. Perhaps he can clarify what the 6oz option is before you buy one.
