hey thanks. yeah im thinking of doing a sale soon but no definite date yet. but before that, im trying to do a giveaway on the artisan services subforum but is still under approval for days now. try to watch out for that when it gets approved.

Message the mods, stuff gets overlooked easily in there

Approved, but we moved it to off-topic since it's a giveaway rather than a sale. Sorry for missing that earlier!

Thank you sir. sorry didnt know the proper subforum where to put those kind of thread.

Flipping through this thread is the biggest reason I want to start making my own. I just purchased all the stuff so I'm hoping to start diving right in soon.

Keep up the good work, dude!

I was just looking at your giveaway thread, it looks like the second one is a 5 shot give the number of colours? That's crazy, I'm really looking forward to your next sale!

Frogbot · « **Reply #205 on:** Mon, 23 February 2015, 21:20:45 »

Your Caps are looking great Krytone!

How do you do your double shots? Do you use separate mold inlays or staged pours?

Thank you sir.
Depending on the design, mostly its staged pours only

That's cool you're making topre, the best switch. Cool little Xmas snow globe.

Moralless · « **Reply #217 on:** Wed, 04 March 2015, 03:01:28 »

What do you think of Topre so far? Agree'd with dustin, topre is definitely one of the best and my favorite switch

Snow globe looks sweet, also looks like it can also be used to make an eyeball

How did you even do this Krytone! All it need is some snow :)

Krytone · « **Reply #219 on:** Wed, 04 March 2015, 06:21:25 »

I tried to put glitters in it. I guess its too powdery like so its too small to see and the globe was covered with pearl powder. Ill try to see if i can make a better snow effect.

Ok with regards to topre. This is a 55g rf and compared to my ducky shine 3 blues, it feels heavier. I miss the crunchy sound of my MX but the tactile is something. I cant say i dont like it but right now i still prefer MX blues. reading through some comments about it, i will try to use it for a while and see if it grows in me

Congrats on the Topre board and i love the Topre judgemental skull. I am kind of in the same boat as you as I just got my first Topre board (not a real force though) a CM NovaTouch. It is 45g though and although I do not dislike the feel of it I'm kind of on the fence on it. I prefer heavier tactile MX switches such as Clears,Greens etc. so I'm almost regretting not getting the board you got with 55g switches. Everyone keeps telling me that it will grow on me and that being a little unsure is a really common reaction so Im sticking with it. Hopefully the Topre switches will grow on you too. RealForce's hold there value well so worst case scenario you can sell it. The snow globes are pretty cool. I don't know the mechanics of it but the fact you suspended glitter in there is pretty crazy !

my thoughts exactly. Its an ok board and its not a bad choice but i do really like a loud board so i kinda miss that. I switch between boards in the office and now getting used to the weight of the RF bit by bit. If i miss the sound, i just press the bigger keys as they are clicky like my blues. lol.

Thanks everyone, been really busy with work and some modifications im doing so kind of slacking on getting the caps up for sale that was scheduled on the last week of feb :-[

Will try not to be lazy this weekend and clean all the caps and prepare the sale after the weekend. If all goes well, ill post it on sunday :-X

suicidal_orange · « **Reply #232 on:** Sun, 08 March 2015, 04:32:57 »

Looking good! For some reason my favourite is the pale purple one but it wouldn't go with any of my boards. Actually I'm not sure any of them would, except the lonely black one hiding at the back...

I'm sure you'll find plenty of people happy to take them off your hands though

So excited to see topre krytone your caps came and they look great. Also how is the 55g treating you I would be really interested as mine arrives tomorrow. I returned my novatouch as it was really loud.( I'm kind of regretting it because topre caps are so hard to find) anyways let me know your thoughts and I can't wait for your topre

freaking awesome!

Krytone · « **Reply #240 on:** Tue, 17 March 2015, 21:02:48 »

Cool! glad it arrives in one piece.

The 55g experience is still continuing. I swap between mx and topre from time to time and while they are different, i came to like it almost at the same amount. You'll probably love yours too

Didnt know topre stem is a bit difficult to work with. most of the caps i created is too loose when put in the board so im still adjusting on that part.

Another thing is the crowned skull is getting a cleaner cast and Diagonal skull is gonna be available again with a cleaner (hopefully better) look.

And this guy...

After being jugded by the judgemental skull, comes in Peety, the Pitiful Skull who pity everyone he sees

And that isnt his final form
