thanks I know about this site but it is really very expensive to buy and get it shipped to msia - would cost me around RM400 for a tenkeyless set of keycaps. thought that someone here would be selling or know an alternate site for topre realforce keycaps

thanks again anyway

Another option would be Taobao, but from what I see it's about the same price possibly more.

taobao sifu, how to search for costar stab inserts and clips?
and the metal bar as well

I thought there are some come bundled with your keycool?

If you searching for the real Costar one, I think you should visit WASDkeyboard. They sell both the mounts, insert and also wires.

Anyone know where to get cherry MX keycaps for cheap? I kept trying to search taobao, but my banana-ese isn't stronk enough.

Already tried heavy-arms

One doesn't comply heavy-arms with the term "cheap", LOL.

BTW, simply type in 键帽 in taobao.

Yes I just checked again and with shipping from elitekeyboards it would cost me RM450 and one of my TB agent in the past also proposed to me a cost of RM430 for it.

Wah, so hard to maintain this Topre KB like this... how

when? i wanna go n see also tongue.gif

most common 3D printers are able to print mono colours only or single colour, depending on the colour of the plastic roll. but of course there's better 3D printers that is able to slot in more than 1 plastic roll to print different colours in one printing.

the school i'm working at just bought a 3D printer, prints out stuff quite impressively accurate. first thought in my mind after seeing it at work is, must try printing a keycaps with it! biggrin.gif
but it's using ABS plastic. hmm...ainuddin which thread on GH u found the measurement for the casings? the DIY thread?

Pay over RM800 for keyboard.

Rm400 too expensive. That doesn't sound right what? LOL

JK, taobao also got, but price should be same, may be shipping cheaper a little.

Ya Kaiser(something) cant remember, this popular member here helped me buy this last year and it costs me around RM1400 in total. Happy so happy at that time but the Topre I bought has keycaps black on black so if it is dark I find it sometimes hard to find the right keys. Also I bought the 55g uniform one - oh big mistake cos it's so HARD. Should have bought the variable touch one.

So for anyone here intending to get a Topre Realforce with 55g uniform pressure - don't, unless you have big muscled fingers or like to what keypresses hard...

Boss, you try 5 minute already sold. tongue.gif
Topre need to break-in one.

Like when I got topre, i was wtf I spent so much money cannot feel any difference. Then I got HHKB again, cannot feel difference, so regret. After using for few more weeks, the feeling start to get better, and now the HHKB is one of my favourite.

Ah yes kaiserreich its you. notworthy.gif Sorry I forgot your call sign - how could I seeing our good past relationship.

Well, first I find that its still hard to type - cant be until now still dara havent broken??? biggrin.gif

2nd I can't see the lettering with the black on black. Yes I know I know have to do touch typing but sometimes must see a bit especially in the dark.

Anyway, if you are buying anything from those sites that sell topre, tumpang shipment maybe economical. Thanks
