The Peter Pan of Nerdery™ 🇦🇺<p>The kiddo came home from school and got stuck straight into switching out the default Akko Cream Blue v3 switches on the Monsgeek to the new Bsun Sakuras.

The Peter Pan of Nerdery™ 🇦🇺<p>Took some pics of the MechanicalKeyboards.com MK tech warehouse here in AZ yesterday. The yellow Evo80 is a keeb I really liked - if they had it in any of the other 8 or so colors I likely would have bought one.</p><p>Surprised so many keebs have solid aluminum cases these days. This one was at least 4 pounds, similar to my Keychron Q3 aka Big Blue. Several others were as well. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Mechanicalkeyboards" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Mechanicalkeyboards</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/mechanicalkeyboard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mechanicalkeyboard</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/mechkeys" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mechkeys</span></a></p>

What's the good stuff out there? Use it mostly to quit the sound of the keyboard on the desktop, so looking at something that will absorb sound well. May just grab a Keebmat for the KB</p>
Aaron Mahler<p>I periodically poke around the custom mechanical keyboard scene thinking I might give a design a try. I’m quickly learning it’s an incredibly particular hobby with vernacular I’ve still not fully deciphered. I’ve also learned that anything that catches my eye design-wise is universally sold out. Must be a heck of a business to sell keycaps… <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/mechanicalkeyboard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mechanicalkeyboard</span></a></p>

Might work - feels better for shoulders and elbow angle having the keyboard that much lower down.</p>
