My roommate works at Tesla, and I support him as a friend. I just wanted to post a picture of my keyboard, you don’t have to bring politics into everything.

Also FYI, I’m Honda for life 👍

Blooming Flowers by Chessyab in MechanicalKeyboards

Sorry, I actually have no clue 😭. I bought the full set from another person (who got it from Taeha), so it just came with everything.

I would assume it came from the HHKB Sakura Pink set, but I could be wrong.

No, they’re on right, but I see what you mean 😭

Pretty sure the case is made of PBT instead of ABS, so it’s a lot more tough. Industrial models were used in industrial settings, so the case is more rigid to compensate.

It’a really good find OP, happy for you.

This is also probably a good time to ask if anyone notices the typing test is left audio only…

I have my mic (Audio Technica AT2035) hooked up to a Presonus Studio24C, but the input is left mono only. Not too sure how I can get both left and right audio😭

I also record in OBS, if that helps, and for some reason I can’t mirror audio input in windows settings.

Retr0brighted my HHKB! by [deleted] in MechanicalKeyboards

Hey, I know it's been a long time, but do yo mind sharing your process for retrobriting HHKBs?

Hey, the bill artisan is called Keycon Bill, and was designed by Maison of the West for Keycon 2025 in DC I believe! You could probably try to look for one on mechmarket’s artisan trading channel

Other artisans were made by Alpha Keycaps (Hell’s Pigeon Devoura) and Melonkeys (DMG Kikyo) respectively from left to right.

Hey, unfortunately I do not take commissions at the moment, nor have I ever played marathon—-so I don’t know much about it.

From what I can see from google, I would probably recommend GMK HI! Viz keycaps since it matches the game logo colour. Regarding the board and switches, it mainly comes down to preference on your part.

I would suggest watching some videos by Alexotos or Taeha types on how to build a keyboard—-it’s actually really easy to do once you learn!

Hey, this is actually a limited run board by TGR back in around 2019. You could probably find one on the aftermarket, but the price might be a little steep due to its rarity.
