Simple and elegant. How did you get/make the white case?

I painted it myself.

Nice. I had been considering doing that to my own QFR.

Really nice job, usually painted project kinda suck but this looks professionally done. POM caps I'm guessing?

Nice, simple, elegant :)

Hard to believe this was once a plain old QFR!
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

Oh my god it's beautiful.

Objects look so pure when painted in complete white. The gold is a really nice touch too. NICE ONE MAN  :thumb:
