Yeah, it sits between the Lightsaver and KBT Race, though to skimp the Fn and put all keys into a compact layout, Pn key and the empty one at the top can be removed for other purpose, USB port or such, I still finds the the use of those Scroll Lock especially KVM (of which I use a lot) and probably won't use the Pause?  hmm.gif
Oh, must be mistake, didn't notice it's not the normal length. doh.gif

An update to dadu suggestion and little "weird" mistake pointed out by quovadis on the spacebar.
http://www.keyboard-layout-editor.com/#/la...f6abe0d330e2353

More suggestion is welcome. notworthy.gif
As for the LYN MKB, I would suggest compact yet able to retain most of the Function keys, F11 and F12 is still useful. nod.gif
But of course my layout is to skimp the Fn keys all together, others may finds it otherwise.
Thank you all for your attention. notworthy.gif

There's MX Mini PCB for similar type of layout:

Where the bottom row is compatible for either 6.25 or 7x spacebar.
for 6.25 spacebar, most probably is 1.25 1 1.25 6.25 1 1 1 1 1 bottom row for old version of pcb.
The new or latest one can be 1.25 1.25 1.25 6.25 1.5 1.5 1 1 iinm

Ya, somemore it has no bling bling.
For newcomer, they really wonder why should they pay for RM400+ for a keyboard that looks the same as the RM30 one.
At least other bling bling mech kb are more attractive in terms of cosmetic, given around the same price OR cheaper.
*
leds are very cheap generally and wont affect the price of a keyboard by much.
since mass production by oem will probably just rm20 or 30 more.

just be reminded some mech kb with beautiful led effects are using kailh switch instead of cherry switch, yet still selling at expensive price.
example: razer blackwidow 2014 series, some thermaltake ones also.

I quick question to Poker II owners.

If I want to clip my stabilizers, I do need to desolder the switch, right?

Sigh speaking of stabs. Assembled faceu and soldered already only realize that the space bar stabs not smooth cause of one sides wire too deep in, rubbing against the stabs. Sigh malas desolder. Wait for key caps to come only desolder
*
haha yea, thats the downside of pcb mount stabs coz need to desolder all switches to access the stabs if u use a plate.
some new plate have cut out to allow stabs to be removed by just desolder one switch, that would be easier.

For poker ii , just desolder the individual switch associated to the stabilizer.
Thats not the downside of the pcb stab. It is a stupid design decision made by the koreans to use pcb mount stab on keyboard plates which needs you to desolder everything before being able to do anything. If you have a plate mount stab on plate keyboard, just desolder individual switch.
*
Yup, the design of plate by korean didn't take such issue into consideration before. Even some still argue if doing extra cut out to allow removable stabs by just desoldering individual switch will affect the rigidity, but imo that only affect thin acrylic plate; steel, ss aren't by much.

Tai Hao, Tai Hao, so good bad they call it Tai Hao.

Personal dislike: ABS and OEM. Feels weird mang.

this is because those keycaps are made by a big company from taiwan named taihao.
this company have started making keycaps for keyboard since year 1980 and other pvc/plastic related things and more.

noted, for that price I sense there must be something wrong with it
*
Nothing wrong with the price, but the shipping fee will be expensive imo. pcb with around 100 switches is quite heavy, maybe around 500g each.
That's one of the reason i didnt include this pcb option for cherry stabs gb sweat.gif .
