Drop Mech Keys Meetup Recap - Thanks for Visiting!
As you may have seen, we just hosted our first meetup in quite a while here at Drop HQ (Corsair HQ, but they seem to like us enough :) )! It was a blast to get to meet so many enthusiasts local to the bay area—it had been 10 years since I was last hanging out with keyboard nerds in the bay, at KeyCon 2014. We had a great time hosting everyone at the offices, checking out all the very nice boards y'all brought, and sharing some of our own projects/spaces! I knew it would be fun to host in the Game Room when I first saw it in person, but seeing it come to fruition was still so cool. Alright, I'll stop blabbering on now. xD Picture time! (Oh, real quick - there will be more of these! Stay tuned for more info and to catch the next one!)

ABS and PBT are both good for different reasons, it all comes down to personal pref. From my understanding, PBT is typically more robust, has a higher melting temp (hence why you can dyesub PBT but don't see dyesub'd ABS keycaps) and also has a different texture (more rough, whereas ABS is smoother/shiney-ish? May differ from manufacturer to manufacturer) however I have also heard that GMK makes ABS keycaps that some people will prefer over PBT because it's simply a higher quality ABS and better manufacturing process/practice.
Please feel free to correct if I am off base.
Im picking up the set because A.) I dont have a GMK set yet - B.) This set looks amazing and - C.) Did I mention this set looks amazing?
