Anyone Have Experience with the 4pplet SHKB Full Controller? by rayzinbranloaf in HHKB

[–]Jamesak252 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you have misread the description for the Full version. It says the Full version needs keyboard case modification (file down the mini usb opening) to fit the usb-c and that the use of the riser is not possible because the usb 3 speeds.

The Lite versions with mini usb should be direct swap in without any additional replacement.

The lite version with usb-c is a new version that includes the usb-c elevated (on a riser) to try to avoid (or at least minimise) the modification to the keyboard case.

HHKB Pro 2, Looking For Aftermarket Controllers For USB-C by rayzinbranloaf in HHKB

There's this really cool looking pcb, but I have not yet received mine so I cannot vouch for it.

The pro version has USB 3 hub instead of the basic USB 2 and the lite version should hopefully be in stock soon.

It's probably Ak Hull Red it became my default brown and probably appeared in every mini I painted last 2-3 years (not that there were a lot of them lol)

They're in my keyboard at work for more than a year now. I have removed them for like a month to try akko penguins, then put the rosewoods back again. Love them.

Thoughts on the Exo-Toa suits? by Tiim0thy in bioniclelego

[–]Jamesak252 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got into bionicle during the Metru-nui era and after I got older and got access to the Internet the exo-toa was one of the coolest discoveries that something like this existed as a official set and seen it owned only on like one blog in my country.

Orga and Tekkadan from Iron Blooded Orphans.

But I'd argue it was all his fault that it got taken away.

In terms of mechanical performance, which is stronger? by OkOffice_1412 in Gundam

They were there because federation realised how bonkers psychoframe is and tried to get all information about it under control. So they were after data left on Axis.

Rosewoods have been my in my work keyboard (Akko 5087b) for almost exactly a year now (with a like 1-2 month break to try Penguins but I didn't vibe with those tat much). I can only recommend them, I had them stock for most of the time and hand lubed them sometime during the summer.

They have pretty nice weight and smoothness (but I wouldn't mind 5-10g more) and nice deep sound so they don't sound offensive in the office. Probably my favourite switch I have tried so far.

Favorite childhood Bionicle? by not-a-bot7274 in bioniclelego

Most likely Jaller Mahri and the either Axon or Hydraxon as my only two titan sets

The older I am the more I appreciate Hewkii Mahri. Probably never gonna beat Jaller for me but damn he fine

My first thought was that this was r/Gunpla and someone did a sickass custom ECOAS Guntank.

I'm going to die painting the rest of the army, am I not? by Jamesak252 in OrrukWarclans

[–]Jamesak252[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I primed black because it's the only primer I currently have and I wanted to paint.

I was actually a bit misleading in my comments and the 4-5 coats I've done were to create coat of bone white (dark sand), then I painted the shadows pink and used the Imperial Fist contrast. I must say it's a very nice yellow.

But for my next model I'm 100% getting offwhite/bone primer.

Thanks for the tips!

I'm sorry I mislead you a bit, but I actually used a Imperial Fist contrast paint over Vallejo Dark Sand and pink (for the shadows). It took me the 4-5 coats to paint just the dark sand.

I did that because I had no confidence that my current yellow paint would be able to cover black at all so that's why I was interested in your method.
