not sure is that a Realforce, but I have a set of Orange colored key for it, if it is a Realforce Keyboard.

this is the Key set I have:

they are selling it @$USD95 there, shipping cost another $USD50,
the set I have I m willing to let go, contact me if you are interest,
my price will be lower the the price they are selling plus their shipping.

maybe he took a snap shot of that image to show us how the keys look like,
not that exactly same keyboard that she have, in previous post he mention the keyboard has: black on black key, priced one thousand plus RM, and have some "force" on the brand tag, that lead a lot of us to think that is a Topre Realforce Keyboard.

Unless his friend paid over RM1000 for a KBT ....
that sound like be a Topre keyboard.

I find it kinda meh, since it doesn't come with a shiny case.
The acrylic case I got from litster feels not as good when you have the metal ones around.
Spent $150 ($100+$50 shipping) and all I got was PCB, a plate, and some accessories *first world problems*
*
Well, have to sought own cases but WFD is working on one now afaik. Or you could go for filco custom cases which would probably fit as well (i think so?). The great thing about phantom is you are able to customize it(easily). Not to mention the amount of layouts available. biggrin.gif

I thought of hopping onto the Phantom GB but I think it's way over my budget and I think I'll be bad at soldering and screw something up for sure. Lol.
*
It is quite pricy but i dont think i will regret getting it.
Well, would have to starve for a month. rclxub.gif
Im getting WFD to assemble it for me. Don't have the time and experience to do it myself.

So total everything up including shipping, how much are you going to spend? I know I won't regret it either, but my bank sure GG.

Estimated ~$250 assembled and shipped. But without casing and cable.

60$ switches
30-40$ cases
or the plum for 80$, which you can use the case and the switches.

20$ plates
separate 5$ if you want to choose your led + resistors

assembly - 25$ if you ask for WFD

-
35$ pcb + diodes + leds
18$ teensy
12$ shipping
I would say about 200$
EDIT: for me

50$ switches
20$ plate
35$ pcb + diodes + leds
18$ teensy
12$ shipping
probably another 20-30$ for itsy bitsy spider that's left out of the count.

I already have my case and springs ready.

So u are going with profoist together with the plu casing eh?
Well, i included lubing+stickers. Stickers are unnecessary but i thought i would give it a try.
And for the case would like to get a better case.

no, I will be using my CM QFR case, repaint. asking WFD atm to make the ANSI125 CM QFR case compatible. There are almost no point in lubing blues if you're doing that. I only need about 90 switches, so it's fine, or I can always opt for lesser, since I have a lot of extra switches with me. I will be building it myself, really want to try and get to know my keyboard more.

That's nice. Custom QFR case? the one that looks like filco camo? Also, then you wouldn't have the holes for the 2 LEDs like the filco then?
Its nice that u have soldering station/skills. I have neither so.... whistling.gif

That's easy, I can always make the holes! smile.gif Just have to drill, if you know what I mean..  thumbup.gif

I don't have any of those skill either! LOL, but it's always good to read around and gain more knowledge of things.  thumbup.gif

rclxms.gif Would be a nice hobby.
Will be picking it up myself as well after i graduate. biggrin.gif

Just gotta wait for the cherry replica to be ready and get a dolch/cherry set to go together with the phantom. Possibly ds pbts as well. drool.gif
