mine is low cost wan.
the PCB - USD$55
the acrylic case - USD$80
the alu+acrylic plate - USD$40

total is USD$175 (not including shipping yet)

but i manage to save cost on switch because i harvest the blue switch from my fren's faulty DAS keyboard.
other stuff i bought for my custom keyboard project.
sticker - RM20
65g springs - USD$8
led - RM20 for tkl
usb cable - USD$13

so it's about RM609.70 + 20 + 28 + 20 + RM45.30 = RM723
but u still need to find your own keycaps.

The price is not steep, I must say.
You already have key caps from before, right?
Oh wai Raindrop is on the way

yeah...i have a few keycaps on hand...
2 sets of vortex doubleshot pbt, 1 imsto pbt dyesub and raindrop next year, and maybe gmk white on grey also.

Do share with us your acrylic casing... I'm looking something for my Poker II.

i don't get to see the actual pic also...how to share? lol

u die die wan alu case or turun budget to acrylic already?

Sprit's full metal case coming out soon.
3. Metal Case in detail :
All Super-Hard Anodized, The Aviation Grade Dur-Alu Alloy. Price : 150, 180, 250, 300 USD respectively.
60% is USD$150.

custom keyboards are expensive because of all the other additional stuff and if u get alu case, that will take up over 50% of the total custom keyboard's cost.

Sorry... I need to get a shot of vodka now. What I mean is when the casing arrive. My brain not functioning so well now. Haha...

haha...definitely
will take unboxing pics and then i'll try to take pics of assemblying phase

This?

Bang, stabiliser mana?

oh ya...stabs...i'm still waiting on sprit to look for plate mount stabs.
but pcb mount stabs is about RM30.

if the pcb with plate can fit pcb mount stabs then no need susah find plate mount tabs anymore.
since hammer selling rmb35 for 104 layout each set

unfortunately my plate supports plate mount stabs only...haha

I got some extra plate mounted cherry stabiliser can let go, do update with me next time (after Feb) when you still can't find yours. Though, for the spacebar size, you may need to get your own wire since all my plate mounted cherry stabiliser is normal spacing one.

BTW, mind tell why you prefer plate mounted cherry stabiliser? It are the most awkward out of the three, costar style or pcb mounted cherry style are better IMO...

that's because i didn't know the plate can only support plate mount stabs i assumed it to be pcb and plate mount compatible.

I thought you are letting go your poker2 for duck mini?

No money to buy duck mini. I wish I can dibs. Haha...

jangan nanti-nanti upload 1 duck mini here -.-
