On day 15 of my Lily58 adventure i managed to surpass 40 wpm . . .
So all going really well. Next stop 50 wpm — or will my new keyboard be ready before i reach 50? Now that is the question.
Bye for now!!!

Lily58 Keyboard Typing Progress 30 WPM
On day 3 of my Lily58 adventure i managed to surpass 30 wpm . . .
Hopefully the rest of the bits i need to finish the keyboard will arrive tomorrow. I had to return one part from Amazon because it arrived in a used and broken state and the replacement is due to arrive tomorrow as well. Fingers crossed the remaining stuff will all arrive good and dandy.
Bye for now!!!

Lily58 Keyboard Typing Progress Day 1
So yesterday i finished building a Lily58 keyboard from a kit that i bought from Mechboards (more on that in another post as i haven’t totally finished it yet), and on my first few goes on Monkeytype i managed a whopping 24.78 wpm . . .
So, considering that it’s quite a drastic change of keyboard style, i’m more than happy only losing 6.6 wpm. I’m thinking there’s a lot of potential for the future in this keyboard.
I shall write a whole post about my build experience as soon as i’ve finalised the build: i’m currently waiting on a few bits to finish it to my liking.
Bye for now!!!

Colemak DH Progress: 30 WPM
On day thirteen of my Colemak DH journey i managed to break through the 30 wpm barrier all the way up to 31.35 wpm . . .
I’d like to say ‘Next update at 40 wpm’, but i’m hopefully changing keyboard again in the next couple of days to a Lily58, which, i think, is going to put me right back to the beginning again. Ho hum, i’m sure it’ll all be worth it in the end.
Bye for now!!!

Colemak DH Progress
On day three of my Colemak DH journey i managed to break through the 20 wpm barrier and hit the dizzying speed of 21.11 wpm . . .
I’m feeling quite pleased with myself. Next stop 30 wpm.
Goodnight!!!

Keyboard Change to Colemak-DH
So, after over 30 years of touch typing on qwerty i decided it was time to try something different, and after much thinking and a fair bit of research, i changed my nice new keyboard over to Colemak-DH . . .
Admittedly, it’s quite a challenge learning a whole new keyboard layout, but i’m really enjoying it so far. Although my Monkeytype score has plummeted from 72 wpm down to 14 wpm . . .
Ho hum!
I’m now left wondering how long it’s going to take to get back to 70 wpm. We shall see.
Having fun with #mechanicalkeyboards.
