Welcome on board, this is how you go from 4 keyboards to 15 keyboards :rofl:

Whoa whoa take it easy I just made the jump to 4 that 15 is probably light days away....

Any idea if this will fit the CM Storm?

demik · « **Reply #54 on:** Tue, 03 April 2012, 21:15:55 »

I might end up just buying a leopold blues....probably gonna end up putting either retro or creamcheese/blue caps on them anyway

Edit: change my order from frosted to clear please.

reaper · « **Reply #56 on:** Tue, 03 April 2012, 22:11:59 »

The only reason I ordered this is because I want that free dragon keycap... that and to see feng bike to the post office carrying all 10 acrylic cases (tsangan's one on the bottom in case feng drops them so it'll take the first impact), etc...

:rofl:

What makes you say that? I think if you remove the USB inlet sub board, it would fit.

Also, Acrylic case possibility is the reason why I will be properly sanding smooth my solder connections

These cases look great! The magnents must be neodynium to hold the case together at that size: Excellent.

Bytheway, if anyone is worried about them messing up your computer: Don't be. You'd have to pretty much set a HDD right on top of the magnet to do any real damage. The only other issue is placing it too close to a CRT. Since magnetic field strength drops with the cube of the distance, anything past a few inches is really not a big issue.

Case in point: Apple computers. Their iMac has ten huge magnets holding the glass onto the display panel. I just recently rescued some from the recycle pile at work.

We three people didn't expect this happening when we sent the sample to MKC. We were about to just ask him to make three clear cases only for us. Just to be fair, actually MKC have been working on his own clear case for months before laggy-gaga sent the sample to China. But after bringing the product to the market, as we can see, MKC must have got some ideas from your original design. I'll post some pics of MKC's old sample of the clear case later.

Good luck with your new works.

Quote from: feng

As I have said, not just on DT, but also on GH, we wanted to make 3 clear cases for ourselves. Not for anyone else, or for making profit at first.
As you might notice, I'm selling many of MKC's products on eBay and GH. This clear case is just one of those. Why shouldn't I start selling these when MKC bring it to the market? Besides, it's not completely copied from yours. If it's exactly the same thing as yours, I would say I wouldn't have started the group buy on GH. In fact, MKC did improve the idea of your effort, and also not to mention that he has been working on the clear case for months before he actually saw yours.
Anyway, what I meant is that if MKC just made 3 exactly the same copies of your work, we three would just keep it for our own collections. But, MKC also has his own sample of the clear case long before yours, and then got some ideas from yours later, so it's not like a fake copy anymore. And since he brought it to the market, I just started selling them in US.

Is there a reason these are significantly more expensive then the ones on Taobao? I think getting a proxy would turn out even cheaper...

Still on the fence about one of these.

Maybe I can in the future, but not so sure if MKC can make some without having a real phantom PCB on hand. Do you have a high-quality picture of the phantom's PCB?

Well the Phantom is made to fit in a filco case so it shouldnt be much of a problem. pictures of the PCB are in the Phantom group buy thread. All that should need to be modified to fit the 7bit layout should be the gaps between the Function Row keys and the gap between the arrows and the home cluster.

I was promised a sample as well so I'll be posting details on whether or not it fits on a storm.

ETA was 4/13 but no updates so far.

I think shipping might take 1-2 weeks as well so it could be awhile

feng · « **Reply #82 on:** Wed, 11 April 2012, 18:40:03 »

carried by...? If it's DHL, Fedex, 4/13 could be possible. But if it's EMS, hm.... go luck on that.

It would fit any Filco TKL and PLU 87 for sure, but for the CM Storm, I can't be sure yet. I don't think it would fit depending on the pictures.

Mugen · « **Reply #96 on:** Thu, 19 April 2012, 18:45:33 »

Quick question - what is the height of the case, is it the same as the original Filco case?

feng · « **Reply #97 on:** Thu, 19 April 2012, 22:41:42 »

Length 37cm, Wide 15cm, Height 1.6cm~2.5cm.
Length 14.56", Wide 5.9", Height 0.63"~0.98".
It's about the same height as original Filco case.

The first 10 people who placed the order successfully will receive a red anodized aluminum R4 (Esc row) "dragon" keycap as gift. The image of the "dragon" will be in silver. The other areas of the keycaps will be red. They are high quality made and much more expensive than those zinc keycaps.

doood my forum name would be perfect for a keycap like this. How much for just the red/silver dragon aluminum keycap? Or please start a group buy with only aluminum novelty caps.

Closing on the 25th or are you going to extent this?
