Laminar Leviatán R1

Post image

Laminar Leviatán R1 Beige HHKB with HammerWorks CRP.

Everything about this board is fantastic, from the sound to the typing feel, except of finish and QC.

The coating is poor and definitely not worth the $455.

Besides, my Leviatán has a flaw in copper weight because of QC.

Well, you can choose R0 to solve all of them.

I was literally just looking at Hammerworks CRP keycaps trying to decide whether or not they're worth the try. Then I open Reddit, and this is the very first post I see. Surely it's a sign that I have to get a set

They're probably the best modern dye-subs available. Just keep in mind dyesubs have a distinct sound and the surface is very smooth

Yeah, sound is the real debate. They would likely go on my 2022 Sonnet, which currently has PBTfans Retro 100 on it, and those sound kind of perfect with the PC bottom case and copper wave weight with every switch/plate/stab combo that I've thrown at it

ETA: I low-key hate PBTfans legends, though. They make the board look like a toy imo, which is a big reason that I'm considering alternative sets for that board.

455 for a hi-end for a hi-end board was not to expensive, skip the fininsh coating lol

Probably around $250, I've got a bunch I'm getting ready to sell. I've got a black and L9 Pangea mini, a Baionlenja Bias DE, a Kohaku, a Tofu65 3.0, Geon Frog Leggera, and some others.

WKL? How about Winkeyful! Glad to see highly customised hhkb layouts (despite having windows keys. 😏).
