My first custom-case Keyboard!
The acrylic case design is based on Winkeyless one.
Which I have added 2 top plate to have a shine-through logo JCKB.

This Keyboard looks like HHKB layout, but there is a bit different. Main stream HHKB layout 's bottom row is 1-1.5-7-1.5-1 , which limits the keycap choices IMO. So in this keyboard, I use standard bottom row, which is 1.25-1.25-6.25-1.25-1.25, the one and only one keycap which is non-standard is the right shift (1.75x), make my life easier on buying keycaps.

For key feel, I use silent switches to simulate the softer touch of eletrco-capacitive switches. TTC silent browns (prototype) give me quite a surprise! The tactility is round and nice, definitely greater than Cherry browns (greater than Aliaz too).
