I am in no way sponsored by HMX, just a normal keyboard guy.
These switches may be the best switch I've tried.. i was using hmx xinhai before but these are snappy and give a good pop sound. Give them a try if u are looking for a change. :]
Mixing caps for my Lakers.. not a perfect color match but close enough to trick your eyes.

GMK Taro R1

My beloved. I was afraid taro would not look good on a navy board.. but boy was I wrong. I have been building keyboards when funds allow since covid times. Watching Alexotos and Taeha streams while in lockdown isolation. 6 years have passed and I was finally able to get my "endgame" board (I have a new endgame board in mind now lol). All jokes aside. I was never able to afford the 7V or resale GMK Taro. On a whim after cleaning my desk I decided to scroll mechmarket subreddit and see what 7Vs were going for and to my surprise they finally dropped to a reasonable price. I jumped on the opportunity and now I have both things I thought I'd never ever get. I guess the moral of the story is "never say never". I dont know if its a good thing but getting this board and sourcing all the parts brought me back into the hobby I feel excited to see what new designs come out and chill in keyboard streams again. Anyways hope yall have a great weekend and I look forward to seeing what you guys build! :]
