New Keeb Day

1967 Smith Corona Super Sterling....I think my hobby is leaking. :)

Q6 Pro with 9009 colorway
  • I did buy this barebones, but just before the pro was availabe in white, I bought the fully loaded Q6 (non pro) in dark grey. The keycaps were good! The grey one has since somehow found its way to my son's apartment, but I liked the stock keycaps.

  • I agree! That "spacebar as case" is a great look. I would love to see some more case creativity in the hobby, but I am not sure the numbers would support manufacturing. We probably need Hipyo tech to start reviewing typewriters. "THE CLACKIEST TYPER...THE BEST MOD TO MAKE THAT BELL REALLY DING". No hate though, I like watching him.

  • It was a full set with soooo many extras. I would be surprised if there is any keyboard it doens't cover. It was on etsy. The store is jellykeycaps. It took a while, shipped from China, but the quality was excellent. Highly reccomend. I paid $71 for the set.

    This is keyboard #3 for me. I think I am finally there. Good feel with the Glorious Pandas (pre-lubed), good sound with a custom internal pad (poly-fill layers wrapped in tape and cut to size). Matching green metal knob from lovemyswitches (turns out knobs from guitar effects pedals fit well and come in a huge variety).

    Anyway, I think I am done. My attention has been shifted to classic typewriters. I recently fell in love with the early 1970's Galaxie Twelve in Atomic Blue. (look it up, you too will be smitten). Now THAT is a mechanical keyboard!

    Peer-bay?

    Possibly a dumb question, but is there, or could one of the extra smart people here build, a federated marketplace to allow for direct buying and selling without the middle-man enshittification of ebay, reverb, and the like?

    Just in - Q6 Pro

    Just received last night, here is my Keychron Q6 Pro in White with Glorious Pandas, GPBT Arctic White keycaps, and a white Marshall Amp knob.

    Still trying to get usevia to work since there does not seem to be a json for the Q6 Pro. The regular Q6 json is throwing an error: "Object: should NOT have additional properties". Any thoughts?

    YSK: How to Budget
  • This. Track everything. Once you see it all in front of you and assuming you don't hide the spending from yourself, it is very eye opening.

    I spend how much on beer!?!

    Be ruthless with tracking and, assuming you found a job with a living wage, and the cost cutting opportunities will start to show themselves

  • Why multiple keyboards?
  • Also have the Q6. I would like to see what you've done if you feel like posting picture and details. I am looking to replace the stock gateron pro browns with either glorious pandas or u4t. Also have a 9009 colorway cap set on the way.
