Oh yeah, i forgot there are tons of 60% alu case on Taobao. Some of them are quite good.
Hahaha, indeed a solid alu keyboard is a bliss to use. Are you considering 60% keyboard? Or you'll only consider a TKL?

If you're looking for a TKL, there are tons of them out there. Just whether you willing to pay or not. If those better korean boards. You'll be looking to pay around 1.5k and above. I think rao2100 have a Kmac LE that he is willing to sell(saw his siggy). Typically they are going for about 400USD and above.

Or you can consider TGR-03 by Yuktsi. Going for RM1.4k assembled.

I don't think alu keyboard can break down just by typing. Usually the switches are mounted on a metal plate, less flex, more solid typing feel.

Haha true. I think I'm going for tkl as I always use the keys for websurfing. I already looked for korean kbd in kbdmania etc. but its hard coz I dont understand korean. If only there are ppl that can help.  I saw TGR-03 by Yuktsi in gh. It is still a prototype or already in production? I'm in Msia only for vacation. going back to europe in 2 months time. dont think that I have enough time  might giving rao2100 a ring later.

There are a few TGR-03 prototype. The one you saw should be TGR-Jane, which is still in prototyping stage.

If not mistaken there's also one Kmac 2(winkeyless, 84keys) with big god 0168257061 that is willing to let go. Not sure but you can PM him I think.

with 1.4k myr you can have the 03 prototype
the prototype was made with 7075 aluminum (very solid board)
pretty good deal if you are fine with some small little flaws
not too bad after all

photos: *spot the flaws

p/s: I have another prototype selling at 1.3k myr, using 6061 assembled, more flaws. All selling at below cost. sigh. prototype buyer is eligible to purchase any future tgr board or any custom board board at budgetary price.

if you are going back to Europe are you sure you can carry all the alu Case bro ? it weight around 4-5 kg

just bought CM trigger blue switch
goo for typing.  so far loving it. except there is few drawback

If not mistaken, they don't exceed 3.5kg. Even TGR-03 with brass plate weighs around 3.1kg. Quite a heft to add to the luggage.

still super heavy because you are allow to have hand carry 7kg with another laptop bag for another 7 kg.
for me after my laptop and my B87 mouse and some small stuff also 7kg ngam ngam.
and dangerous the check in.haha unless you use ultra book

Suspect you're going to say it's loud, and big and bulky.

yo man ~ penangbro too? haha 

Ya, might go check out on gurney/prangin mall for demo unit...
Gtech is the one i bought my customize PC, too bad they dont have demo unit for mkb.
I google and search, mostly suggest to test by yourself to find which switch (red/black/brown etc) suite you most.
I saw gtech doing promotion on mkb.

Filco is a great keyboard, but really it won't blow your mind. Accept it. 
After few days, still the same.

Mechanical keyboard really a good stuff, it helps reduce my wrist pain since I type a lot every day.
If you feel your typing sound are loud, install o-rings on the keycaps.
Will greatly dampen the sound, and improve your office experience.

How's your keyboard so far? Any dead LEDs?
I'm on my 3rd kb after rma-ing, and i have 1 dead, 4 dying leds.
I will not be getting a backlit kb again.

i have blue switch and black/red switch if you are interested to test them out.

wow man. your shop in penang island?
if it's a shop you can let me know the name, place so I can go visit .
Think im going tmr after work to prangin mall, 1st avenue and maybe gurney to search around.
