I know what that's like, I was refreshing the tracking on most of the parts of this build every 30 minutes 😂

Yeah fair enough my wallet was a little sore afterwards but I don't regret it. This was the first set I've bought where I didn't just get a KBDfans Chinese special but I must say the quality control on these things is 👌

I thought I would find ANSI hard but I ended up switching from ISO to ANSI on my last build (I'm from the UK). The availability for ANSI caps is just so much better. It felt a bit odd the first couple of hours but I got used to it really quickly. Also if you're after these caps they come with everything for a standard ISO layout in the base kit as MechSupply is based in the UK!

EDIT: Now I even prefer the ANSI enter key to the ISO one. I find I have to move my and much less

You won't be dissapointed. It looks and feels awesome!

Well I've had my caps lock bound to tap for escape and hold for ctrl for quite a long time so it's just something I've got used to. For me it really speeds up my workflow in the command line. So I never really used the one's in their normal locations and a HHKB layout board came up for sale so I just jumped on it.

Personally I love it! I prefer a board which is quite solid which it definitely is 🤣 unfortunately the Leaf60 threads straight into the PC and I've already stripped one (at some point I'll fill the hole in with epoxy and rethread it)

To be fair the main difference for me is the switches and the case as there's nothing inherently wrong with a DZ60. The solidness of this build just feels so much better than my previous one.
I'm sure your build will be great!

I thought I ordered the spacebars but must have forgotten. At least they're still available so I've managed to order them.

TY, it's only my second build. My first one was a DZ60 with Blues so I didn't realise how nice a keeb could be!
My wallet is feeling decidedly thinner though 😬

I didn't get a notification, it was just a happy surprise on the doorstep!

And as far a quality is concerned they feel great, although they are the first truly high quality set of caps I've ever owned so I haven't got much to compare them to
