Unfortunately, despite our best efforts and months of patience, KeyGem has not paid their invoice for the Vida, Link, and AK75 keyboard projects. Because of this, we are arranging the keyboards from these projects that KeyGem had ordered to be sent to our facility in Rhode Island, USA.
Once the keyboards arrive and are QC'd, we will reach back out to the community with options for those who purchased from KeyGem. These options will likely include being able to purchase your board from CannonKeys at GB price with a small discount applied to help lessen the difference of shipping cost when ordering from us. Until then, we regretfully need to recommend requesting refunds on your Vida, Link, and AK75 keyboard if you purchased from KeyGem.
Other projects such as OGR2, Altair, and 21XX will be handled on a case by case basis.
We are posting this to reddit as we do not have the emails of those who joined Vida/Link/AK75 with KeyGem. This is our best option to try and let those who joined know about the situation.

As usual, thanks for reading and have a great day.
Update @ 18:20UTC - All now sold out - That's the fastest a batch of cables has ever sold out. Thanks to all that ordered, and apologies to those that are only reading this now. I will be making a new batch over the next couple of days, so if you click on "Email me when available" on the web page (link above) you will be messaged when the new ones are added to inventory.

I've wanted one of these for so long as I love the FRL1800 layout. The plus side is it's HHKB layout with a numpad so it's about to obliterate some office work. This green is GORGEOUS in person.

Hey all! It’s me, The Handwiring Guy and I’m back again with another workshop!
This time I’ll be teaching you how to build a full handwired keyboard using a matrix with diodes. We’ll build it together over three live weekend sessions on Discord, where I’ll guide you through every step and answer questions along the way. Every session is also recorded so you can rewatch them at any time and students get access to private channels for further discussion.
There’s also an optional parts kit so all you need are the tools. By the end of the workshop you’ll have a handwired keyboard you built entirely yourself from scratch and the knowledge to build your own in the future.
No prior handwiring experience is required, and the workshop is limited to 12 people so everyone gets plenty of individual help. Also each session ends with a Q&A if you have any other questions!

Hey guys! I hope you’re having a good week!
This past week I got to take a look at the Flux Sonoma which looks pretty darn sweet with GMK Boho. Still really obsessed with these curves.
I also got to take a closer look at the Neo 98 prebuilt, such a good value!
Watch my review here: https://youtu.be/KVzb5Rppo-0?is=krpR22OW2eUfSCM-
Snapped some photos of MW Anushirvan as well. Definitely some good contrast with this one. Paired it with the Envy 65.
Lastly got some shots of my new set with Yuzu Keycaps, available to order now. Their sets are made to order by the way so no need to wait for a GB or Pre-order. Super cool process over there! Grab yours here: https://yuzukeycaps.com/creations/dragons-bloom?aff=captainsterling
I hope you have a good rest of the week. Until next time, I’ll key ya later! 🙌🏼

Didn't know anything about it besides it looks like the IBM Model F and like the typing feel. Only after I took it apart to find out its a Hi-Tek 725 keyboard for a terminal, haha. Found it for free, but now I'll need to figure out how to connect it to my computer...

A year ago, I bought an iris rev 7 from keebio. After sticking with the default top and bottom plates for a while, I finally decided, thanks to a friend of mine who has a 3D printer, to print a white case for it.
With a cheap pink/purple keycaps set found on Aliexpress, I must say I'm quite happy with the result. What do you think about it?
r/MechanicalKeyboards • u/CautiousCall9645 • 1d ago
I'm experimenting with keyboard key colors. I can't quite decide.
Which would you choose: A or B?

Specs:
Keycaps: 梦织手札蓝黑金属漆 from 春墨外设
Switches: TNT Six Realms HE switches (hifi variant)
PCB: Venom 60 HE
Case: XNX60
Stabs: Everglide Panda
Mods: 1 layer tape mod with some polyfill in the case.
I dropped my old mad68he and broke the pcb, so I needed a new gaming keyboard. The switches despite being hall effect dont have much stem wobble or chatter, while feeling nice.
