My layout is based on:

|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
My layout's **quirk/gotcha**:

|
- Replace `Caps Lock` 1.75U with `Control` 1.75U.

|
|

|
|
#### Review
|
|
|
|
Things I don't like, also [honest review from Reddit](https://www.reddit.com/r/HHKB/comments/xmcbkq/comment/j1625fy):
|
|
|
|
- The sides don't have any gaskets, so the keys on the far left and right bend down more.
|
|
They will pop out of the hotswap PCB or the plate if pressing too hard.
|
|
- PCB:
|
|
- Not all keys are **South facing**.
|
|
- Can not config RGB per key for real.
|
|
Only support RGB mode switching.

## Keycap
|
|
|
|
Currently, I use Akko 9009 Cherry Profile and EnjoyPBT 9009 Cherry Profile.
|
|
The space of EnjoyPBT 9009 is not straight so I use Akko 9009 space.
|
|
|
|
I know I know, I love 9009 color too much.
|
|
|
|
Careful:
|
|
|
|
- Check if keycap with stab (space, enter, shifht) is straight or not.
|
|
- Check is keycap is tight on switch or not.
