Looks very nice. I just got myself the elvish training with orange accents and dwarvish hardcore with accents when they were bogo. Love them!

I just got in the custom keyboards after many years of mainstream ones (huge difference). My first keyboard at bottom, rk84, not a bad one but it is a place holder until i buy some others lol. The one on top is a portico75. I loved it, for how much it costs, it is a great board, but i bought it as a gift, so now it is gone :). The dwarvish keycaps are in the box, waiting for the qk80.

Oooh nice I should've gotten those orange accents they look awesome :D

Yep, i love them. The only issue i found out with them is that the written spacebar is 6,25u. While qk80 and i believe your keyboard too, needs the 7u. There is an orange 7u tho without writing on it.

Ohhh hmm I'll think about getting some extra stuff, truth be told I bought these keycaps for another board I'm working on I just couldn't resist the urge to put them on 😂😂😂

Damn That’s a great build Mostly because it just fits an aspect of being and old school beige keyboard, but somehow it’s also a cured dwarfish relic from the past! If the keyboard is capable of changing switches, with solder or hotswap, I would recommend trying hyperglides or any black switch (heavy linear), I think it would fit this theme nicely :)

Nah man, clicky switches all the way on this keyboard. I have box jades on my NCR80, and the way the hollow plastic case and the switches interact sounds fantastically old school.

I do also use a clicky tkl, but comparing it to my epsilon bm43, I get yelled less in the house for using quieter switches! I didn’t say that clickys are bad, I just recommend to variety the collection!

Hah, yeah, I wouldn't use the box jades + NCR80 combo around people. It's by far the loudest keyboard that I have.

Yea XD I personally use outemu blue switches for their light springs (I was wrong to do that, 45g makes me triple press “p” xd) But I did build a keychron k10 with navy switches and round keycaps for my friend! He likes it very much and the heavy springs makes him more precise in Cs:go, If I were to try a clicky switch on a daily driver then I wouldn’t use jades or navy switches, (I have samples of both at home) I would use white boxes (lighter spring and a little less click, I have a sample at home :]) or Outemu clream blue clicky switch (essentially it’s a Pom switch prelubed and it still clicks, sounds cool, I don’t have a sample at home :[)

Did you do a peroxide dip on the case or something to whiten it?

Hey question: is the NCR badge removable? I have a set of godspeed and some kerbal space program artisans that are looking for a board, and I kind of want to get this one and replace the NCR with KSP.

I'm sorry I haven't tried but I think it's possible :)
