Wow... Nice view. Your's huh? Got side view? Just wondering how the top base sit on surface.
Acrylic looks nice but limited color from Taobao. Maybe acrylic since it's lighter.

Acrylic black color looks not bad too, but i just afraid that it will break if hit/dropped.

I think you should make a design that need not use CBC milling. That way the cost should be lower.
*
Yup, local aluminum tukang that i found open shop one some doesn't have miling machine and they still using man power with tools for cutting, bending, drilling etc.
Well, precision is totally up to tukang de skills. Aluminum grade not sure, since the aluminum they used mostly for making window/door frame, or some sort of racks ?

That looks similar to TEX alu case, I like the minimalism frame design, would be better if the case is slightly higher and cover the mx switches a little.

QUOTE(tWice @ Oct 31 2013, 07:20 PM)
does the keyboard can be change the keycaps? I mean is it standard layout. Just found it RM339. So high price T_T

It should be rm300 ryte???

And one more, whats the different between CM storm TK vs CM QFR? Dont tell me about the key is more at cm storm TK, i just wanna know the difference in terms or QUALITY and SPECS???
*
CM Quickfire Rapid is standard layout, can change keycaps.
Stock keycaps quality wise, TK is better. But TK is non-standard layout
I found in lelong, RM309 http://www.lelong.com.my/cooler-master-qui...3-11-Sale-P.htm

I think I have answer your question before, so i just quote myself instead:
QUOTE
Well so far from my experience about TK is quite good for the build quality. Its the first mech kb i own also after surveying for awhile.
Its heavier than i expected when i get a hold on it. And i also tried to stretch it like youtube video shown and it really no flex.
Imo, picking a kb is very depending on which what type of layout u get used to and how does the size matter on your usage.
Personally i need a kb that features as similar layout as my previous one since i need numpad and arrow keys with compact size coz table is small.

QUOTE
It depends mainly on your preference sweat.gif , as long as u can get used to its layout.
Though the only downside is some keycaps can't be replaced easily due to non-standard layout.
If u only need the arrow keys or TKL, u can turn off num lock and it works that way.

Here's the cons I think that may bother some users but i'm ok with since i ady get used to this layout after 2h of usage:
1. Brightness on F12 (Win Lock) and FN keys can't be adjusted
2. When LED turns on, FN and F12 keys won't light up unless u activate it.
3. When num lock is on, LEDs on num keys "2 0 00 and ." are off.

I took off the spacebar and it seems like TK is using costar stab. The think metal string thing is underneath the stab/plate.
