New Keycaps For My SK64, Improved My Writing Speed
I wrote a piece earlier about my SK64. How much the optical keyboard has grown on me. Since I've ordered DIY keyboard kit, I thought I'd buy a pack of keycaps and switches for the keyboard before it arrives. That being said, I couldn't wait to test them out so I put my new keycaps on the SK64. The results were pretty amazing.
Before change
I did appreciate the minimalist design of the OEM keycaps, however I would come to soon realize that replacing these made my typing experiences much easier. Thanks to the newer keycaps design, and the additional aesthetic features, made me appreciate my keyboard even more.
After change
End result
These keycaps are more clacky, nice clacky noise. Would go really well with clicky switches or maybe those smooth, quite linears that would make tiny clacks but the noise would still be retained.
From typing, my WPM improved. Like, these keycaps made it much easier for my sausage fingers to type on. Amazing. Used to be 65, now it's at 80WPM from Typetest.io .
You can also try monkeytype. Most people these days use that instead of anything else. But typetest.io did its job for me.
I have more coming up, please follow me. Am also going to upload a few sketches here and there, so make sure to stay in touch. Go to my profile and click on the follow button.
This change is good and this keyboard is looking awesome after the makeover. Great work
Thanks, I plan on doing a lot more of this stuff later on.
