Greetings fellow Topre nerds! After a long IC and a lot of R&D and feedback, I’m happy to say that I’m now ready to ask folks to join me in building my dream keyboard project: a luxury after-market housing for the RealForce TKL keyboards from Topre in Japan. :D
Due specifically to GeekHack discussions, it has a USB-C detachable cable, a winkeyless option, a hard anodizing option, and a number of other features that wouldn’t have been there if it weren’t for the encouragement, support, and ideas of GH members like perniciouspony, richard912, exitfire401, fine_italian_leather, avid, dgneo, and many others. Thank you!





More info at the GB page.
Price is $259, with optional special finishes. I’m sorry that this one is a bit more expensive than my prior GBs for the Novatouch housings, but this one simply has been and will be a more expensive design to manufacture due to the unusual sculpted design profile of both case and risers, the custom-engineered PCB, etc. Understanding that it would cost a bit more, I intentionally made this one fancy. :)
The GB runs to December 31 at midnight, but there is an advantage to joining early, as orders may ship in batches if we go significantly over the MOQ (which is 100), and in any case I always ship in the sequence in which orders were received.
Concerned about proximity to Christmas shopping season? I know; I just didn’t want to wait until 2018 to run this. For whatever it’s worth, the Shopify platform I use to organize orders takes Paypal, which means that most people can use Paypal Credit and get six months without interest or payments. I know this only because I have been in similar situations in the past and used it. ;) I don’t make any money from your using this; I just thought I would mention it.
