^ That orange Frow looks nice - nice contrast with the black. Yellow would look good too, and a slightly better match with Batman

mars-bar-man · « **Reply #52 on:** Sun, 11 November 2012, 06:37:22 »

I've changed it up slightly now, I've got a Trololo key on the ESC and the Batman has been moved to the Tilde key. Looking to get some Orange-on-black keys from Qwerkeys to go with the F-row.

How do you like Treble's aluminum case? Does it add a decent amount of weight to the board? Any pinging noises? Also, do you know of any ways to dampen the noise of the keys by placing materials inside the case before screwing down the board?

I'm thinking of picking one up once he sets up his shop again.

mars-bar-man · « **Reply #54 on:** Tue, 20 November 2012, 13:33:02 »

I love it, it makes the whole keyboard feel much more solid (just wish it had the centre screw support). I haven't heard any pinging noises except an occasional rubbing against where the backspace key is, but that was down to the board not being entirely centred, soon fixed that. I bought the case off Longwieght who had placed some form of rubbery foam underneath the PCB, so I've left it there as I didn't see the point in removing it, so can't comment on the difference without.

A picture of my Pure collection. All from mechanical keyboards.

Really nice stash there. Really nice. I hear this is a great compact mechanical keyboard design. Hope to try it soon.

Partial collection of my Pures.

Edit: 1 more. + mini comparison
I am quite happy with my new silver cased Pure. The case quality is better than the black versions as well as the Filco case in the background. It has a much finer satin like finish that looks nice, as well as no dings and gouges on it. You can see 2 gouge marks on the inside and outside edge in front of the LWin key on my black case (there are a couple more, but none this bad). It is gouged before the anodizing because the marks are completely filled with color. Then, there are some minor parallel marks on the bottom. Both of my other ones doesn't have the parallel marks, but the silver one's finish is still better.

Silver one seems to have a newer firmware revision than my other Pures. The old one has inversely powered Fn lock indicator. If LED is set to high brightness, then the FN indicator will be dim, and vice versa. New ones only lights up when Fn lock mode is on.
^edited due to fuzz memory and never using the LEDs.

I only just noticed you're a Mac user. You really need some white caps. That silver satin finish + bright white caps have a very Mac feel to it ;o

A bit of a repost from the "What did you add to your keyboard today" thread, but here's a shot of my KBT Pure with my new CCnG keycaps set.

I put the leftovers of my valentines kit on the Pure, or at least tried. The spacebar doesn't seem to fit very well.

I feel bad doing a CCnG for my pure now, since its been done. =(

You should post a photo of your Valentines set!

FWIW, I switched back to the default keys, I just wasn't thrilled with the SP feel.

I tried the space again, wasnt sitting properly and gave up.
I'll give it another shot when I take all the other caps off.

I've got that for the time being. Profiles are a bit off, but its no big deal. Not bad for the leftovers from the mods & tsangan.

Not sure if you seen the non-backlit Pures. Pure was originally designed to have centered legends. http://kbtalking.cool3c.com/article/56001 The legends on the LED version were moved so they're better lit by the LED.

I haven't seen any either. The only sets I've seen with that key have been the Tsangan sets from SP group buys and I believe the GMK group buy with the purple, thick double shots. In either case, they are both ABS.
