キーボード掃除

いつ買ったのか忘れちゃったくらい昔から使っている、HHKB Lite 2。今はもうカタログ落ちしたが、幸いまだ現役で使えている。

これ以前はさしたる理由もなくIBM SK-8805を使っていた。壊れたので買い直そうと近所のPCデポに行ったら展示してあるキーボードすべてが打ちづらく、改めてIBMキーボードの素晴らしさに感動した。不幸にもIBMキーボードの展示がなく、一緒に行った子供にどれが打ちやすいか聞いたらこのHHKBが一番いいというので買ってきたのだが、その判断は正しかった。以降ずっと使っており、他のキーボードにする気にならないくらいなじんでいる。詳しい人には「所詮廉価版」と言われるが、廉価版でこれだけ良ければ十分だ。

今までに2回ほど分解掃除をしているが、また汚くなってきたのでバラして掃除をしよう。ただし今回はキートップだけにしておく、

名前は知らないが、キートップを外すやつ。これをガチョンと差し込んで引っ張るとパキパキ外れていく。

汚いね。数年来の汚れが蓄積している。キー自体もコーヒーの飛沫などで汚れている。こんなになっても機能的には全く何も問題が出ない構造だ。

キートップはビニール袋にわずかに洗剤を入れて水洗い。ガチャガチャ揺するだけでゴミが浮いてくる。ちなみに打鍵面は結構テカってきているが、文字の薄れはまったくない。かな無刻印のモデルなのでシンプルでよい。

とても汚い。この奥にキースイッチが並んでいるが、今回はそちらはいじらない。穴にゴミを落とさないように慎重に掃除する。このキーボードで唯一と言っていい欠点（と言うか改善してほしい点）は、ケーブルが直付で外せないこと。これがUSBだったら可搬性が飛躍的に向上していただろう。

予めスキャナでキー配列を撮ってあり、見ながら修復していく。おそらく記憶だけで修復するのは可能だと思うが、迷ったり思い出したりする暇があったら早く直したいので物理的に記録した。ボトルはアルコール。

できあがり。色あせもなく、新品のよう。この文章もこれで打ち込んでいる。一体いつまで使えるのだろうか。

Hiya! :D 16 and 28 of the 'these are sure some asks' meme. *waves*

hahahaha hello!

16. They say you can tell a lot about a person from the state of their desk… Do you have a desk? Can you describe it?

i do have a desk! because i live in a small apartment, i had to downsize from a 5x2.5ft desk to a 3x1.5ft desk so it's been an adjustment even after two years after having it. i do like that it's easy to disassemble because it's literally 2 parts, the fake wood slab and the foldable metal legs. perfect for small apartments.

on the surface there's only room for an oversized deskmat where i put my mechanical keyboard on. i have 2 speakers on either side of the monitor and a subwoofer and my pc tower underneath. and i have a mac mini behind the monitor.

mm let's see i have an ikea lamp clamped, and my monitor on an arm clamp as well. i have an mx master 2 mouse and a roccat gaming mouse for the pc and a trackpad for the mac (i sound like a bougie douche when i lay this out but it is what it is) but i shelf the trackpad or the mouse when i'm using the other system.

right now i have a black hhkb topre keyboard on it

this is the most egregious bit though at my desk is my chair which is just a cushioned folding chair because i am a) in the market and b) need a small chair and haven't found one

28. What about life makes you smile?

most everybody who isn't stuck in the toxicity of the internet are literally just living their lives. they're just trying to make the train, trying to hang with friends, trying to buy groceries, trying to just do their own thing. it makes people watching on the train or at the park much more fun since people are just doing their own thing.

2023 End of year keyboard review

Hi yalls!

So we're approaching the end of the year. Since then, more keyboards have entered the market and I've managed to build some of them. At the same time, group buy orders managed to arrive. I'm so happy that I've been able to expand my collection with these items.

Honourable mentions

Due to how expensive the keyboard hobby is, I couldn't grab everything that was released this year. At the same time, I had to sell some of the keebs that I used to own due to a variety of reasons.

For starters, the QK and Jris series have been super amazing for opening doors for high-quality budget options in the market. I own the QK75 and remade my first keyboard build and I swear to god the improvement is immaculate.

Next is Mode Designs. They have released a bunch of high-quality boards and boy howdy, I wish I could own them all. The Envoy was well-loved in the community and the release of the Loop is so cute. I wish I could grab my hands on it, but I'm satisfied with my Sonnet, which is still available to this day and now has new colour options.

Lastly, it's the established keyboard companies like Asus and Razer as they've released some hotswap keyboards. The one that caught my eye the most is the Azoth. I would trade in my old Corsaid K70 for that keyboard. If anyone is willing to do so, hit me up.

Now, here are my top 5 boards.

5. The Dreamscape build

We all know how I've felt about this build. It took 2 years and it's finally here. I love this build for the soft aesthetic and I'm so glad I can finally use this keyboard. It's such a shame it took so long because there were times I was losing hope and was considering giving it a different build.

Specs:

Ikki Aurora x EPBT Dreamscape

EPBT Dreamscape

Gazzew Bobagums

Artisans from Namong and From Scratch

As for the use and feel, it's nice. A bit mushy cuz of the switches. But at least no one will get mad at me when I type during meetings because apparently, they can pick up my typing sounds. Its the ultimate dream silent keyboard.

I'm just happy this build is finally complete cuz omg, imagine if this went on to 2024. I would lose my sh*t.

4. Rama Thermal

Getting used to the HHKB layout has been a challenge. Fortunately, I ended up getting used to it after a few months. I do miss my arrow keys but using function + WASD was a good alternative. I will admit that my productivity at work did slow down during the first few weeks.

Specs:

Thermal by RamaWorks

Osume Winterglow Eve

Clackbits

Artisans from Tulipclay

While Rama might have some controversies, it's actually a really nice board. Has a really unique look it, something that I'm after when I buy keyboards. However, after comparing it to other builds, it's not really great. The sound quality feels hollow (despite tape modding it), and the keycaps and switches sound output doesn't help at all so I ended up rebuilding it.

Right now, as of writing, I'm using temporary parts for a later build and it's going to take a while for me to find the right combo. I will update you once I made something worth showcasing a sound test. I am interested in trying out the Akko Penguin Silent Switches so hopefully a muted build is what this build needs.

If there is something I learned from this keyboard - DON'T BUY FROM RAMAWORKS.

3. The Nordic Build

The boards may look good but their reputation sunk so bad. I had to file a bank complaint just so they could reply and get this board shipped (mind you, it was a in-stock item).

Originally, the keyboard that I wanted to use was the Loki65. But thanks to Mechs and Co, that was heavily delayed. I've always had eyes on the Fuji keyboard series since I started this hobby in 2021. So thanks to the Keebs For All Marketplace, someone was selling theirs for a good price and I got it.

Specs:

Fuji 65

EPBT Scandi

Hera Switches

Artisan from EzKeys

Aesthetics-wise, it looks pretty good. All the colours complement each other and I'm quite happy. The reason I wanted to make this build is that my favourite country is Iceland and I wanted to build a keyboard inspired by my trip there in 2019. The only flaw with this build is that the switches sound scratchy. But that's because I didn't lube them. Could be fixed if I do that.

I look forward to the day when the Loki65 gets shipped as I think my thoughts will change when it arrives.

2. The Tofu Build

Believe it or not, this was the first keyboard I built this year and I'm quite happy with how it turned out. The reason why built this keyboard is because I was inspired by Magic The Gathering - Kamigawa Neon Dynasty and this build resembles that trading card set.

Specs:

Tofu 60 (the original)

PBT Fans Kabuki-Cho

Tecsee Ruby Switches

This keyboard is THOCKY. It's not as thocky compared to modern builds but it has that low-profile sound that was highly sought after during the pandemic. I can see why this was a beloved build back in the early days of the keyboard hobby.

While the Tofu has increased in price over the years, I believe it's a testament to how the hobby has changed. I'm glad to have a piece of keyboard history in my collection.

1. The Sonnet Build

This has to be my newest go-to keyboard. From the looks, sound, and aesthetics, it was worth it. It took a while for me to figure out which keycaps to use since it originally had Osume Dusk. I think the greys from the Hooties are much better.

Specs:

Sonnet from Mode Designs

GMK Hooty

Popu Linears

Artisans from Hibi.MX and Geekkey

Using this board has that 5/5 experience. The sound is so satisfying, the feel is really nice. The artisans complement the board so well. And the fact that the Sonnet is a really good quality keyboard adds extra points. I highly recommend getting the Sonnet when you have the chance to do so.
