how much cost diy mkb?is it more than Rm399?
if like that then i buy then ducky shine already

seem like build diy pc, but this is mkb version. form ur words, its seem to be very hard to do it.

it depends. now there's someone in china doing preorder for the pcb and also the mount plate. less than 200 for both of them. then you would have to use a solder kit to desolder and resolder. LED optional. then the casing, price varies according to what you want. but show be around less than 399 for a 60%?

any sifus out there can clarify about this? summoning 016-god

Here is the link of someone converting full size keyboard to tenkeyless http://imgur.com/a/78WwF .

The one using a new pcb is quite easy, especially if you buy pcb with presoldered controller, diode and resistor. Though the cost of custom diy is quite high. Rough cost for 60% mkb as far as I know:

RM100 - 200 => PCB with presoldered controller + diode + resistor
RM200++ up to .... Rm500? maybe? => switch plate and casing
RM150+-=> For switches enough for 60%, new

Optional
Rm100 + RM20 => for teensy and diode, if you buy pcb without controller like phantom pcb
Rm20 maybe => for led

Oh and delivery charges, as most item comes from China/Europe/US, US and Europe delivery charges is quite expensive.

^1st one. Classic!

Why not both?

The case from the first pic+keycaps from the second pic.

I like the way you think hehe.

whats the differences between the two apart from the design of the feet? if the internal are the same, then i would prefer the ORION thats more sexxayyyy to me but this is all up to personal preference i think

thats the right mindset............... when you have a deep pocket

buy whut? 60% layout? TKL? or full sized?

the pcb is different too, orion has a lot of cantik led effect while 456GT only has 2 leds which is numlock and capslock

Oh the phantom, requires a bit more of work.
But if you buy the board that 016-god just posted, all those diode/resistor/controller are already soldered. Just need to solder switch. 10x easier than phantom.
Advantages is you can mix switches that you want, and diy keyboard = priceless

Add the amount 016-god just posted (rmb 490 = rm260?), and add price for switches + keycap (016 always know where to find a good price ) if you dont already have them. And hire someone to solder them if you dont have any solder kit or not familiar with soldering task.

Or go with kbparadise 60% , either way its the same thing.
