You kena topre Poison also ah~!

Collection huh? You will need no other keyboard after you get a topre switch, that's how I feel now

I m selling off my other keyboards, and if I　successfully sell all, I will be getting a Realforce full size

which one you planing to get ?

You want full set or single? 104 or 87 ?
PBT or ABS? printed or blank?

erm... my 87 PBT are used... I have a set of 104 blank Black ABS come together with the red switch Leopold I got from Cyclone.... and I got a set of rainbow PBT completely suit steelseries 7G, I wonder if you are interested in them.....

Did you try Taobao?

BTW, I not almost test them all, I really tested them all, cherry MX that can be get anyway.
Those rare Green switch, yellow switch, white switch, orange switch, and such I never tried.

For Topre Switch, Try it and you will know.
It doesn't necessary meant that Topre switch is the best of all,
but it suit me the best and also it is completely different from other,
so I found it hard to coup with other switches, when I switching around different keyboards,
that will make me felt awkward for some time before I get used to it.
Maybe some people are able to switching between different switches easily, but not me.

So I decide to keep only my HHKB for general typing, chatting and uses,
and the Leopold Red switch, for my Diablo 3 game, Diablo 3 keycaps and other keycaps modding.

If you come to Melaka, I can let you try it here.

without shipment also quite costly right?
if you want them to ship the thing nicely, I think that's what it cost......

not too poisonous to me, but that's a very nice one, what switch is that one?

Added on May 5, 2012, 3:53 pmAlright! Since I have sold my Filco Blue Switch, I m now putting my Steelseries on sale,
if any one are interested please do not hesitate to ask,
if got friend are interested also can introduce them to see.....
and I put together the PBT keycaps on sale too, in the same tread,
If any one are buying the keycaps alone, they are welcome,
but if who want to buy the keyboard before the keycaps are sold,
they have to buy the keycaps together with it. those are the term.
if you guys think the price are not too good, can suggest also.
anyway, hope I can sell it off, so I can get a ..... you know what.

LOL,Microsoft Natural Keyboard : something similar to Topre Switch......?
Ignorance is a sin, this line doesn't feel so right before I heard that line.

Added on May 6, 2012, 5:33 pmFor wood, the best wood from Malaysia Peninsular is Chenggal, if from Borneo is Belian,
they both are so tough that can sink into water immediately, once you drop it into water,
for Chenggal the fiber are very fine and dense, its color is yellow, and will change to deep red or even dark brown if exposed to sun,
and they won't rot in water even if soak in water for decades, thus Chenggal is made into boats, and ship, and harbors.
Chenggal is unique to Peninsular not found in Borneo, and Belian is not found in Peninsular Malaysia, but unique to Borneo,
for Belian, there is very rare now they forbid export from Borneo state even to West Malaysia is prohibited.
its yellow and will be turning to deep red or dark brown like Chenggal too, its fiber is dense and fine like Chenggal too,
Those are the best wood of Malaysia, or should I say best wood of tropical, even termite(white ant) do not eat them.

Teak are good to make into furniture due to it's form are unchange in condition,
it will not shrink, bent or crack even made into very thin boards, and its wooden texture are very nice to see.
but not very hard and do not have very good resistance to water.

I myself have some furniture made of Belian, Chenggal and Teak too, if there is chance, I will upload the photos of them...

If it is mention that the exotic wood, I think those 3 can be counted as exotic wood from Tropical.
they might not be so famous since tropical country do not have fine craftsmen to made them into fine furniture
like those exotic woods from China or India or Africa.

Just some basics.
for these kind of things, You need to touch the real thing feel them,
even work with them to know the real deal.

My grand father is a carpenter, My father learn alot from him,
and he made some of our own furniture, so I learn some from him.

and I made my own arm rest for my HHKB. although it look extremely bad and cheap looking @@

epiguru: Teak aren't as heavy nor as hard as Chengal or Belean.
But rest assured its heavier than any plastic.

Added on May 7, 2012, 12:26 am@scaler my apology if any insult are posted to you,

think I got too excited because I got myself a HHKB with a Topre switch.

I too owned a MS natural keyboard around 10 years ago,
in my memories, the touch of the Natural keyboard are not similar to a Topre switch.

"Finally got an answer after wondering for so many years lol"
your quest to your keyboard knowledge had just begin!
don't let 2 of my rude lines ruin your passion to seek the truth!
if you really seek the truth, come in to this hell of mechanical keyboard with us,
and start your quest on the Path of Keyboards.

7G so low rated??
Am I gonna sell my off

how about buy my 2nd hand 7G and try it out?

its 300 only, but you need to buy the keycaps together @@ unless someone get the keycaps first.
see my signature for the stuffs.

Price can nego la, since we are in same topic now,
and I see you have a lot PVC models too, I m a collector of PVC girl figures.
Have some limited edition stuffs, someday can show you see if you are interested to get from me or not.

Added on May 8, 2012, 12:15 amYa those too, you should look all and find yourself one that suit you best, or just get every switch and try them out,
then decide on which one you gonna keep. for me, I brought all, then tried them all.
and finally I stop at Topre HHKB Pro 2.

7G is my first Mechanical keyboard, 2nd is Filco, 3rd is Leopold, then one of those strange keyboard from 1988, and finally a CdPro2
Main different of red and black is the key press weight, the black is 55g force, red is 45g, correct me if I m wrong,

I found that the Black is heavier than my level of comfort typing, but I think it is better in gaming,
I have less mistake in gaming when using 7G than the red switch Leopold, Might be the reason I m using USB for Leopold,
but P/S2 for 7G.... not sure.

The overall performance, durabilities and built of 7G is Guaranteed, hence the price tag is above Filco, Leopold and Das,
the only shortcoming is that the keycaps are difficult to find replacement.

But my sale are include of the replacement keycaps as well, so there is nothing holding it back, just my commercial promoting line.


On complete other elements:
I have a shining wind PVC Clalaclan Bikini edition, maybe you know what that mean....
and have some Chobits stuffs, some Hentai stuffs, some Ecchi stuffs, a Air-gear Ringo Pinky, a Tsuki Hime Alucard pinky.
and more, total around 80 pcs of collections most of them are out of the box, but some are MISB also.

Let me know your collection direction, and I will post some images...

lol, there had not been even one person telling me that their keycaps need to be replace, but for my own I feel like replacing, since they are ABS,
I do not have much love for ABS keycaps, so I got myself a set of PBT when some of the original ABS are slightly worn.
the colorful thingy is personal preference, but to be honest, the one I thought I ordered is slightly darker in tone,
but they sent this one, But it kinda look good to so I didn't complain, and after uses for quite sometime,
it sink in to me, I feel that it is a good color now....

So like I say, the original ABS keycaps are slightly worn, I suggest buyer get the PBT keycaps together with the keyboard.

For my PVC figure collections, Its spontaneous, or impulsive buy for most of them,
some I like the figure because I like the story of the characters,
many of them have very striking appearances and designs, and when I first saw them online or on the shop display shelf,
I grab them.... because I missed several and they are all non-reproduction items, I do not want to miss one that I regret later.
but ever since I stuck in this Mecha Keyboard Hell, I stop going through those PVC stuffs,
and most of my "investment" went the keyboard and keycaps.

But I do not own a blog @@
the one you checked I think belong to x-1o8-x I like his collection too.

Added on May 8, 2012, 12:07 pmHaha, you can only dream to stop at first mechanical keyboard.
You think you can stop at first PVC figure collection?
making research will not help, unless your research involving typing the keyboard switches,
find a place where they have all kind of switches, and try them all, that won't do the trick too,
be cause even same switches in different brand feels different because the built and materials,
quality control, and designs are differ. and when you go down the road of Keycaps mods,
there is more hell waiting. PBT, ABS, POM, Metal, just wait until you sink deeper into this keyboard hell.


I m not into trading or selling my pvc collection just yet, I would love to sell some just to make some space,
but I m need to sort out what I really have, I only displaying them in a cabinet and some are piling up against one another...
I will post up to the collectible or model sale/trading section when the time is right, you can see them when the topic are up.
