Good catch.  4 including the cap.
The keyboard is cool no doubt but the entire space is awesome. Such character, I bet it feels like your own little escape every time you’re in there. >

Thanks, yes I WFH mostly so it really makes it a better experience >

What is that keycap set? I think I have come across it before, looks neat! >

How are the keycaps? I have been looking for cheap SA keycaps to test if i like the profile and the ones from JakeTsai have been the cheapest i have found. Do you think they are worth the price >

Be aware these aren't actually SA profile. Sellers have a bad habit of labeling MG and AFSA keycaps as SA because of marketing. >

Please excuse my ignoranity, but is the profile the shape of the tops? >

You're a Fallout: New Vegas player aren't you? >

No but I love the look of it >

Oh man, that game IS this aesthetic so I'm not surprised hahaha. There's a town called "Novac" due to a busted No Vacancy sign. >

Very cool. Are the knobs and dials on those monitor housings functional or just decorative? >

A mix of both, some are IKEA scene buttons to trigger HomeKit scenes to change the lighting etc >

If I made something like this, I would worry any time, how I can get it usable 🤪
Also, extra 👍 for this vintage poster! >

Needs more ashtrays to really nail the aesthetic >

Damn you are right, and an Old Fashioned on the side 🥃 >

Could even have an overflowing ashtray 3D printed & painted. All the aesthetic none of the cancer! >

I like it >

Is Triple AAA really AAAAAAAAA? >

the look of the room is awesome, but I'm only here for this. It's really hurting my head. Like I feel like I'm an AI that just got tripped up and am in the process of shutting down from the insanity that was pumped into my head. >

I didn't realize it was a real brand, figured it was from a video game. Now I want to try some. 
Your entire setup is beautiful. excellent job on it. >

This is an amazing room, you deserve many upvotes for the hard work and creativity. You would probably be fine with just a yellow coiled cable from anyone. >

Thank you so much >

A nixie clock would be right up this room’s alley. >

I saw the "AAA" and yelled it like DankPods >

I had to Google it but very funny 😂 >

You need the saturn-60 in mint green
pic >

Oh I do like that. Need one for full size >

That is amazing >

Vibe >

Thanks >

Jesus. That wallpaper SCREAMS "I love Lucy 1960s" Computer is nice though. >

Perfect, that’s the look I wanted 😂 >

This would get some love over on r/malelivingspace (or r/femalelivingspace?) and probably r/amateurroomporn >

Will check those out thanks. And yes a male space 😃 >

Hi I’m new to this world. I built myself some monitor housings to fit in more with the 60s vibe of the rest of the house a while back and have been meaning to get a retro keyboard to fit in. I’ve included some pics of the other side of the office too. To get started I’ve bought a Keychron C2, I like full size anyway but it also fits the theme. Key caps are DaYe JakeTsai Huang Ping. As you can see I desperately need a better cable so recommendations are appreciated. I’m also keen to make a bigger case, I’m inspired by the ones in the TV show Severance but in a different colour scheme. Anyone make something that would get me started or should I scratch build? Thanks. >

Very nice setup
Do you have a link for those keycaps ? >

thanks !! >

something tells me you like the game Fallout >

I like the look, never actually got round to playing the game 😂 >

It's like "Leave it to Beaver" inside these giant, futuristic underground shelters where people fled to escape nuclear war. Outside, it's like Mad Max. I personally suggest starting with Fallout New Vegas if you're a fan of RPGs. It's my favorite game of the series and of all time. >

This has fallout vibes. 
Awesome setup! >

Thank you 😀 >

Where'd you find that 4-bulb wall light above the Motel sign?
Great setup! Love the style. >

Thanks, I made it, we just got a CNC in our local Makerspace and this was my first make on it. >

Well, you did a great job! >

That whole room is awesome. Is that an avacado-green shag carpet I spy? You went all out! >

Thank you, yes it’s a rug >

Really ties the room together >

Would it be AAAAAAAAA Root beer? >

The brand was around in the 30s not sure what that is about >

This room is siiiiiicckkkkkkk. I love it so much >

Thanks very much >

What's displayed on the left screen? 
Also - could you please post a link to those keycaps? Can't find it under the name you gave. >

Will look into that thanks >

Awesome room, you should add a turntable, some vintage HiFi speakers and play some of your favourite albums, I’d be completely lost in a time capsule in that room haha >

Well the whole house is done in the same style so it’s a great place to hang out >

r/CozyPlaces >

This is one of the most unique and incredible setups I've seen. I adore the Fallout series, so this is extra cool. >

Thank you >

Nine As? Triple triple A. >

It’s battery powered 😂 >

This is such a cool set up! I wonder how it would look with a keyboard that uses retro typewriter style keys? >

I looked at those but wasn’t sure how well they work >

They work OK, but I don't recommend them for actual work. >

Those monitors are 😍😍😍 >

Thank you >

That is so damn cool! >

Thanks >

Are the monitor housings custom made or are they old antiques you just replaced with flat screens? Very, very cool; great work! >

Thank you, I made them. There is space to dock laptops and an Apple TV behind, the bottom panels pull off with magnets for access. >

Ok. I have no need for this… but I want it.
You should post this in retrofuturism. >

Thanks, will check it out >

As a fallout fan........
This is genuinely awesome, well done. I'm jealous. >

Thanks so much >

I love what you did there. Could you please share the wallpapers? Thanks! >

Thanks. On the wall or the screens 😂 on the wall is Darjeeling by Mini Moderns. On the screens just search for Retro Sci Fi Screensaver and Fallout Test Card on You Tube. >

Damn man. You can be really proud of that little kingdom. The keyboard is just the cherry on the cake. >

Thank you >

Holy shit this room. It looks amazing! >

Thanks >

Reminds me of Control the Game ngl!! >

Thanks >

WOW! What a beautiful setup! I love the monitor being in a mid-century TV. I wish I had a setup like this. >

Thanks >

Post this into r/battlestations and watch them lose their mind over it. You win the internet for today! This is so cool >

Thanks, I will post over there >

Absolutely gorgeous! Hope you enjoy your space. >

Thank you >

Woah >

Fallout 76 >

That looks awesome. If you want more stuff to add, nixi tube anything will probably fit well. >

It would fit well >

Just say AAA >

This is the coolest room I've ever seen! Awesome set up! >

Thank you >

Tiki drummer mug and LEGO too. Nice taste all around! >

Thank you. We need a Lego Tiki set! >

That's comfy asf >

Thanks >

That's awesome dude >

Thanks >

Bro this is amazing. Cross post to battlestations and malelivingspaces, they'd love this too probably >

Will do thanks >

Now I want to play New Vegas. >

This. is. awesome! >

Thanks >

some things 
you may
like >

Cool, thanks >

I thought I also added that I did love yours. >

I love the Wobblers!! You a big Funatic, or just a fan of The Banana Splits?  Awesome setup, regardless! >

I only have these but do like them, and the Splits >

Feels like a fallout 4 settlement with a million mods >

Thanks >

what keyboard/caps do you have? >

Those look awesome! I think the bottom-left 2 media keys (above your arrow keys) are in the wrong row 😬 >

I love the aesthetic of this whole room! >

Thank you >

Triple triple a is a bit redundant no >

Agreed, it’s a vintage sign >

Crucify me, but I think one of those typewriter style keebs would look perfect here. Especially if the base was wood. Really dig your aesthetic. There's something about bridging the reality gap that makes the immersion so deep! >

Thanks so much, I’ve been thinking of a wooden base >

This is hands down the coolest office space I’ve seen on Reddit, and I’ve been subscribed to r/battlestations for years. Love it. >

Thanks, I will post over there >

Definitely one of the most unique setups I've ever seen. Very cool. >

Thanks >

You're so creative, I love it! >

Thank you >

So fallout! So love it! >

Thanks >

I like the fallout theme with the blend of modernity. Wish I had such a noice setup >

Thank you >

This is the coolest office setup >

Thank you >

This room fucks >

Er thanks I think 😂 >

As for me, I fucking love those keycaps! >

Thanks >

I'm beginning to think this is all a con. >

In what way? >

U like the retro vibes of your room >

Thanks >

No doubt, one of the coolest setups I have ever seen. >

Thank you >

It's just missing that static on the glass that'd be covering the monitor >

😂 >

This is beautiful >

Thanks >

So,…, 9 As >

Apparently  😂 the sign is vintage >

this is by far my fav setup pics ive seen here, congrats! >

Thanks >

Adventure 3 gang >

It’s a great little printer >

Cooling could be better though. >

I wanted enclosed as we have cats 😂 >

That would be an interesting after math. >

Everything is immaculate but that keyboard cable >

A coiled cable would go good with it >

Dude, that's cool as hell! How long did that take you to put all together? The office. >

It’s happened over lots of iterations and separate projects over a few years. We’ve been working on the whole house like this for 10 years >

Love the setup, but also YES to seeing a full size keyboard! There aren't nearly enough of them around here. >

Thanks, I really like full size >

Oh that looks cool thanks >

This is very neat! >

Thank you >

That's an amazing room!  Awesome!  What keyboard is that?  I'm looking for a new full size. Thanks! >

Thanks. It’s a Keychron C2 >

Triple “AAA”??
That’s 9 As!
Must be some damn good root beer >

The sign is vintage but yes that’s a lot of As. I love root beer but it’s not widely available here in the UK >

Fuck off, this is the greatest thing I've ever seen. >

😂 cheers >

Getting a little Twin Peaks vibe >

Love that show >

Dang, this fucks. It fucks good. >

😂 Thanks >

Do you have a series of photos of how you did those monitors? I love the look, but I wouldn't even know where to start. >

I have some video but I’ve never got round to editing, will try and dig it out >

That's awesome, thanks. It would have been a great instructable! >

I have a small You Tube channel (Midcentury Scotland) but like making stuff more than filming it and find it slows the making process down >

Ping me here if you find the footage! I'd love to check it out. Thanks. >

Oh you bastard, that's a beautiful setup! >

😂 Cheers >

Looks awesome! The mouse doesn't really look like it matches the vibe tho. >

You are right, any suggestions for a better fit? >

I wish I knew! I was sitting there racking my brain trying to think of any and came up with zip. I'll look around and if I come across anything I'll send it your way. >

Thanks >

I could make a professional comment about how good and intricate this is. But fuck me that is the sexiest fucking room i have ever seen holy shit >

😂😂 thanks >

Keychron C2 gang >

Yay >

Yours is definitely better looking for sure. Mine is on my very cluttered desk at work haha >

Props for that chair >

Its not Eames unfortunately but it’s comfy >

If it's nothing else it's crazy beautiful >

Dude how did u do those screens, any tips for working with crts? >

I have some video of making them, will dig it out >

Dude that would be awesome I'm looking into playing around with a few >

I frickin love this!! >

Thanks >

Holy crap!
This is the best looking setup i've ever seen in my entire life, this is Just a level ahead of everything...
I can barely say It with Words... It's Just... AMAZING! >

Very kind, thank you >

Lovely setup and great work on the monitors!
If I may, my suggestion is to replace the two Chinese characters with something else. Reason 1: the message makes no sense unless your wife/daughter is called "Faye" or something similar. Iirc it's the brand name of the caps. Reason 2: the font of those doesn't look close to any of the old styles of the Chinese/Han fonts, and it doesn't look new and improved either(my way of saying it's ugly af). Any Chinese or Japanese speaker could easily spot that. For the sake of a retro vibe, it's better not to show those. >

Very good points, I have plenty other options for those keys >

looks like something you’d see in Covenant from Fallout 4. i like it a lot >

Thanks >

r/retrobattlestations would be so conflicted >

If I had used CRTs I might get away with it >

I want this whole room, maybe even this whole house. You'll definitely have some more admirers if you post in /r/midcenturymodern. >

Thanks I do post over there, if you look through my profile you can find some house pics 😀 >

Your whole house is picture perfect. >

OP, I love your Triple AAA root beer sign. My great grandparents had a Triple AAA stand on Route 66 >

Oh wow that’s amazing. I love Root Beer but it’s not widely available here in the U.K. >

I appreciate that you attempted to re-create the aesthetic, but I’d really love to see it with with a proper CRT. >

I have to work from here so there was compromise to make 😀 >

Amazing job, total commitment to the look! >

Thanks >

Love the set up.
To be honest the board is my least favorite part. >

Yes, that was part of my reason for posting I want to build something bigger and change the case 👍 >

This is awesome >

Thanks 😀 >

ALL_YR_BASE
ARE_BELONG
TO_US >

😂😂 >

Good lord that's 9 A's! >

It was a real brand, not sure how they missed that >

Love the look! >

Thanks >

So is it 3 as or 9 >

That’s a real vintage sign, not sure 😂 >

Moon Eyes.... That's a brand I haven't heard of in forever. I freaking love this. >

I drive a 57 Chevy 👀 >

Nice! >

AAAAAAAAAA >

gh >

this is missing a Saturn-60 holy moly >

I discovered that through the replies looks great, I’m planning to cook something up >

This is the coolest post I’ve seen in a while >

Thanks >

I noticed the Scooby Doo Lego Set >

Love Scooby Doo (especially Mystery Inc) and Lego >

Is the image on the left monitor static? If not how are you rendering it? >

It’s a retro Sci Fi Screensaver video on You Tube >

I thought this was a render until I read the title and saw the sub hahah. That's such a killer setup >

Thanks >

dope >

Cheers >

Not so fun fact, the "triple A" in Argentina was a paramilitary group that kidnapped, tortured and murdered people. La alianza anticomunista Argentina >

Yikes! >

A tanker desk would be perfect for your beautiful setup! >

They do look good >

Dope. >

Cheers >

This is so sick >

Thanks >

What no Jukebox caps?! >

Goes off to google >

If i ever grab a neo geo machine itll have strikers 1945+
Nice looking space you got >

Thanks >

AAA AAA AAA >

Love the aesthetic. The whole rooms got such a nice vibe. >

Thanks so much >

Looks awesome, but that mouse pad is not it >

I have a love of Mooneyes products >

Okay I just LOVE your setup! You have a nice keyboard as well but it's nothing compared to your whole room! 
How have you done the monitors? >

I scratch built them. I have some build footage so will put something together >

Loving the whole setup bro! Might I suggest the NCR80 to really up the retro vibes of the keyboard >

I used to work for NCR, software not hardware though >

Way too pretentious, but at least they didn't butcher everything to the right of the enter key, like they do with so many "custom" setups. >

Well it’s not for everyone >

Dig the keyboard, sleek look to it. >

Thanks >

Coolest computer setup I've ever fucking seen, wOAH!!! >

Thanks >

how about some coiled cable for the keyboard, but don't get the custom braided ones, get the  rubber ones like they have on old phones >

Cable next so I’ll see what I can find >

That is an incredible setup. How much was everything? I can't imagine it was cheap. >

Most of the wood was left over from other projects, it’s been time more than anything else >

That's awesome, such an incredible build. >

Very cool! >

Thanks >

everything in here is so cool!!!! awesome design >

Thank you >

Do you play fallout shelter >

No but it seems like I should >

Its a nice mobile game you should definitely try it >

My brain when I saw the AAA sign >

😂 >

You have no idea how jealous I am of this setup I’m absolutely Done 😭😭 >

Don’t be jealous, get building 😃 >

Pretty cool setup, A+ for the effort!
Regarding the keycaps, how happy are you with them? Any comments on quality? Just saw this manufacturer for the first time, prices seems alright, but some of the other sets they list seem to have problems with the legends for example. >

They are great for me but it’s the first set of key caps I’ve bought so I don’t have much to compare to >

Wouldn't triple "AAA" be 9 "A's"? >

At least, the phrase is on the bottle three times
