      Snazzy keycaps, but not my thing. Kind of too bad you didn't show it in a full 104 key keyboard.
      Also I'm just here because I hope that eventually you'll show a keyboard that's essentially the MS Natural Ergonomic 4000, but nice and mechanical with hotswap, per-key RGB, and preferably in 3 separate pieces. Not all of us are willing to deal with a keyboard that doesn't have a numpad and dedicated Scroll Lock key.

    I would love a deep-dive into your design process, inspiration, and what working with different manufacturers is like. Keycaps are my favorite part of the hobby and I feel like there's not very much information around about how they get made.

      @ImOnMy116 2 місяці тому +2

      Seconded, really enjoyed Matthew Encina’s video on the design process for his custom keycaps and working with GMK. I think he’s now releasing a set with KBDfans. I’m not someone who’s likely to ever want to release a set nor am I a hugely creative type, but learning more about the design and manufacturing side of the hobby is super interesting!

    I just wanted to say, thank you! After watching a bunch of your videos, and years of only having crummy cheap keyboards, I have finally taken the dive into customizing a keyboard for myself. I took inspiration from your AliExpress video (because I'm on a STRICT budget). I'm excitedly waiting for everything to arrive!

    @richardgoff9397 2 місяці тому

    Those look so great, just tried my first dye sub pbt this past week and I definitely prefer them. Also a weird recommendation of a keyboard to try out is the Redragon Eisa. It is pretty cheap and is actually very good despite what I usually thought about the brand when I last tried them.

    Sooner or later Hipyo will remember that ISO layout exists (if only for a build).
    I have now noticed (after actually following the links) that the set includes ISO keys... and every other key you could possibly want. Very thorough, i'll give them that.

  • @IckyWilbur
    @IckyWilbur 2 місяці тому

    Looks freaking great! And awesome that you made the base kit so comprehensive - as a filthy Nordic ISO user, i probably won't be able to important these without hefty toll and "handling" fees, but do you have any plans for possible international kits?
    On another note, during the design process, did you ever look in to and consider different profiles other than cherry?

    Also, crazy timing too because I attempted a coffee-themed build with the new QK65v2 Classic Champagne colour. The Neo80 in Champagne could be a gorgeous golden/bronze colour to show off these keycaps on a larger build TKL build 🥰 I wasn't able to get coffee-themed switches in time for my build, but my choice might be the budget-friendly HMX Macchiatos! and apparently Alexoto's fave HMX switch too ☺

    I would have bought these if I had a mechanical keyboard and you had a nordic-se layout but for now I love my membrane it sounds so perfect in my ears and has gained sentimental value over the years, going from a cheap keyboard I bought because I needed one to a keyboard I NEED to replace(missing space keycap so I put the home button there instead, fn not working and one other hey not working) but so don't want to replace.

    You went with "Super"? Man, I've been waiting for a "Hyper" in a keycaps set for ages! "Meta" is pretty rare, but I've seen it and have a set with it (although it's not a great set). I'd snap up a "Hyper" set (which, given the coffee theme, would actually make a lot of sense). Still, it's a pretty nice set. The color palette is very nice to look at.

Just don't know about lubing, stabilizers, etc. I was thinking of the nuphy gem80 since all you need to complete are the switches and keycaps
