That is one nice lookin QFR!  drool.gif

Mind telling what type of keycaps you use? Did you buy in local store or ship from overseas?

Too bad i have the black base of QFR. Would have preffered the grey ones just like yours tho.

I got my keycaps from our friends here on the forums. Vortex and Ducky PBTs, plus some Signature Plastic double shots.

I painted mine silver. If you look closely, the bottom part of my case is still black. And the plate inside is red. Only the red switch one has a red plate. Mine are clear switches though. Had it modified. laugh.gif

So you've changed all the switches to clear ones? Not fancy a linear switch I reckon?

Well I've been looking at garage sales for keycaps bulk sale or such, couldnt find one atm.

But good to know that Vortex and Ducky keycaps can actually fit in QFR. Guessed ive to start searching at international online stores for them. cry.gif

Yeah, swapped my board for ergo clears and ghetto greens.

The QFR can pretty much take any keycap you throw at it. Look for hmgworld and our TS. They both have keycaps to sell.

I just did. Hmmmm. It's rather tempting! sweat.gif

So by having a PBT caps, I dont have to worry about letter fading/wear or keycap shine do i?

Anyhow, do you happen to have the normal font ones?

PBT keycaps won't shine as fast as ABS.
and it's doubleshot. meaning the legend will not fade away even if it's ABS.
this are the only ones i'm letting go tongue.gif

Fixed, PBT (material) increase the durability to become worn out and oily shining of keycaps, but not the printings/fonts on it.

Doubleshot (printing method) make the font never gone/worn.

Thus, a combination of PBT with doubleshot make a really durable keycaps.

1. Been looking for a tkl.
2. Backlit like a ducky shine.
3. Price could be cheaper than a ducky shine.
4. Has local distributor in malaysia eases in warranty matters.
5. Also that layout.

It looks like a good choice in my eyes.
