It still needs some finishing, such as adding a finish to the wood and actually putting the controller back in to make it functional.
And the plate has some flex, I'll have to see about propping it up along the middle somehow, but I'm quite happy with how it turned out in terms of looks.

Still makes me wonder why the hell they decided to collab with datamancer (unless this is some datamancer clone).

Speaking of which: We still don't know who the OEM for all those chink memeboards is, do we? Many of them seem to share the same ABS keycaps.

I'm still looking to sell my Ducky Shine 4 if you're interested. Comes with red and blue (and the colors inbetween) backlighting and cherry clears. Also has some doubleshot translucent pbt keycaps from vortex.

100 bucks for the keyboard with stock caps
+25 if you want the keycaps along with it.
Plus shipping ofc.

>>55324772
It has non-standard bottom row, so it will be hard to change the keycaps. And you want to change the keycaps on this thing since default ones are shit.
It's too big and ugly. You will be missing Esc and ~ a lot because of G-row on the left (i doubt you will ever use macroses, i didn't).
LEDs have only 1 color and you can't program them like on other "gamer" keyboards.
Wrist rest is too short and it adds ever more size to this already enormous thing.
And also some people dislike MX Browns.

I don't think I will, this one has 18 macro's and never pressed them on accident

>i doubt you will ever use macroses, i didn't

>Wrist rest is too short and it adds ever more size to this already enormous thing.

Fug

>Wrist rest is too short and it adds ever more size to this already enormous thing.

Can't live without a wrist rest since I've got this keyboard with one, and that piece of info just made me more dissapointed in the keyboard

>And also some people dislike MX Browns.

The correct 'starter keyboard' is a trip to a local store to rub your Chetio™ 'not Cheetos' brand cheese puff stained fingers all over their keyboards. That or a switch sampler but then you don't get topre.
>>
>>55325652
>the concept of a 'starter keyboard' is kinda dumb.
I thought about that too, but I remembered myself first getting into mechs.
It's quite a steep curve that looks easy from the inside. But when you get hit with all the ABSes, doubleshots, topres, Kailhs, clears, etc. when you just wanna see what this mech thing is about, you start to give up on digging dip and just want to go for a simple option.

I don't recommend anything with mx blues. They are very scratchy. Gateron blues, however, are basically the same thing, just nice and smooth.

Varmilo keyboards come on massdrop quite often, always have the option for gateron switches, and the full size and tkl one are within your budget. They are also better built and come with better stock caps than the ducky one.

they're prone to just breaking and going bad.

alot of leds either die or the lead free solder goes bad and changes colors.

not exactly visible in my photo but my a key is a slightly greener color than any other key with the same settings applied to it. something is causing the green channel to be higher when it shouldnt.

Also, my o key had this double tapping issue where I'd get "ook", "what doo yoou mean" etc because of the lead free solder cracking and had all this black junk around the joint.

i opened it up and soldered it, and replaced it with scroll lock key because i thought the switch was the problem, but it turns out it was just the solder joint, o key works fine now.

-gaymer trash

-red switches

-shitty logo

-absolutely awful case design. you either use their shitty wrist rest or have an exposed clip shit

-worst piece of software i've ever used in my life to make the lights change colors

-white led option was more like "shitty off white and a hint of red"

and probably more that i don't remember

Half floating at best. The keys are still recessed into the frame, albeit less than on most other keyboards.
I don't want that. I want a flat blackplate with keys on it, like pictured above.

Oh. Exactly, it's beautiful, much like the original K-series boards before Corsair switched to a black frame.

I actually liked the way the damped browns on the G710 felt. But I couldn't handle the size and manchild factor.

The G810 is miles better in every way in looks and switch feel.
