Hi All!
Trebs here again, wanted to see if there were any interest in a Aluminum HHKB2 case. Price point is currenlty $350. I need at least 10 or more serious people to make this happen.
Feel free to ask me any questions or concerns you may have.
-
I'd be all over this. In 100% for 1, assuming it's possible. ;)

350 O_O

350 O_O
I concur. O_O

Good thing HHKB owners are used to paying out the ass for everything. Think of it as an elitist tax. :p

350 O_O
Damn...I need to get a hhlb

eh, even then. 350 for something not a keyboard is kinda pricey
-
Imsto's poker tray was what? 170?. This would be 2 pieces I'm assuming, and a lot more complex. After seeing Treble's work on his poker tray group buy, I have no doubt that he could pull it off if it's possible.
It would definitely be unique... no one else has anything like it. ;)

He could do it for sure. But at this price there would be a lot less people buying it. Hopefully a high estimate?

Just curious, why is it significantly so much more than the poker?

This haha
I really want to hear what makes this this much more expensive.

^ Because Topre buyers are always happy to shell out 2-3x more for something. :P
jdcarpe's Theory of Supply and Demand: treble318 will SUPPLY you with an aluminum case for the HHKB2, but he will DEMAND $350 for it.

This made me lol. :rofl:

I hate you and love you at the same time treble. whatever I guess I am down. Off to sell plasma
-
^ Just make more cables!!! LOL.
-
I would have to sell 70 more cables at my current prices to make enough money to pay for that and that would take me 35hrs to make lol

I can always work a couple of extra hours. I can't always find someone talented willing to make something like this.
This is why Id jump at this when the chance arises. To each his own.
-
$350 :shocked:
Man I love an alumin case for the HHKB but $350???
Zzz...
-
$350 is really steep when the imsto case was $170 shipped. I would feel better about $200 shipped conus.

When did imsto do a HHKB case? When did ANYONE do a HHKB case?
-
it would be pretty sick but the price is....meh..
-
It's getting attention though isn't it. I doubt $350 is the real price. ;)
-
You can practically buy a new one for $300
-
Just waiting for answer why it's $350 first, because that's basically a Type S
-
tsangan reply to my pms!!!
-

LOL, yes type S RWD with two turbos!!! No the reason for the price point was because someone emailed me and asked me to create one at an ever higher price point. I actually reduced the price already =)
We will have to initially buy this keyboard HHKB2 for a design layout. My goodness, last week we bought Filco Full size keybaord and next week we will purchase the Filco TLK and now this.. ...
This will be a two piece design which will most likely be double the price as it is , bringing the cost to rougly 200 already. We still need to look into the design and find out what else needs to be done. Again, this is just to see if there are interest !!!! =)
-
$200 and im in
-
Going to need to see a prototype before I can commit to saying yes to $350
Buying a HHKB should not be put towards the cost since the keyboard can be sold after the mold has been done, you have no need for it, unless you want it but if that's the case then...
But either way need to see the product before I can say yes or no, I am interested though
-
i hope it looks like hhkb pro hg
-
secretly i hope you guys all say no so he can focus his efforts on the TKL case :X
oh crap i said that out loud
-
The top shell of the HHKB might be very hard to make.
Are the individual switches (not the sliders) for the HHKB removable? I tried removing the sliders the other day, it was a very scary and damaging experience.

We will see, if it takes highly precision tools it may cost more... depends on the complexity of the job and design.
-
Yes but not for $350.
-
Maybe we should think it this way: $150 for a Filco and $150 for the metal case. $300 or $450 for the HHKB, then $350 for the metal case is quite reasonable. :behindsofa:
-
I wouldn't buy one on principle at that price. $200 is where I'm game.
-
Damn, kind of afraid to see how much the Filco case will cost now. Hopefully things will turn out much lower than the current estimates...
Does seem like you have an interest for them in the price is right.
-
Interested not for 350$
-
I don't own a HHKB (yet), but if I did, I think the price for the case is fair. Roughly equivalent to the cost of the keyboard.
And treble318 has said that he hopes his case sales can eventually supplant his business' current model, which is prototyping. For that he will need to turn a profit, not just break even.
-

I'm definetely interested.Please make it happen.
The bottom part may be easy to do but the top part of the shell may require to drill out every single hole for each switch which would increase the price I supose. Have you seen a naked HHKB Pro 2 ?

never seen one yet, we will have to purchase the HHKB 2. I was advised by someone that one of them has USB ports?
-
Are the HHKB 2 and Type S the same chassis?
-
They look the same to me from EK's pics. The HHKB1 didn't have the usb hub though... right?
So this would make more sense for the HHKB2 And Type S.
-
I am totally down with paying $350 if they look like this:

Well I'm interested but of course I don't see the point in paying 350$ when I can purchase another HHKB for that price. I showed my interes but forgot to say that not for 350$ :ranger:

Better? =)

Arg! I'm not that good explaining myself in English.
If the only way to get it would be for 350$ then it would depend on the sample as Tsangan says. Not going to commit to something before knowing if I'm going to like it.
I'm cool with the $350 depending on the sample
I know it's a difficult work but the point of my post was that I don't want to pay 350$ just because it seems a "reasonable" price for a product like that when it could be done for around 250$ to say something. I have in mind that I'm overseas and I have to add more money for shipping and then possible taxes which would lead to pay near 400$ if I got lucky enough for 2 pieces of a HHKB case which seems quite step.
The only way to know a price would be that Treble could get a picture of the 2 piece case and make an estimate price before making any sample. I can make a picture of the top case without keycaps so he can figure out how much work has to be done.
-
I understand you now G. Modified my post.
I'll see if I can get the kids to leave me alone long enough tonight to take pics of my HHKB2. Full pics... case separated, both halves, etc.
EDIT: Already done lol. http://geekhack.org/showwiki.php?title=Island:6902 (http://geekhack.org/showwiki.php?title=Island:6902)

Holy crap yes that does. Price makes more sense for something that requires that much intricate work.

That HHKB HG is just $5,000 :thumb:
That's the the HHKB HG Japan. You can get the normal HHKB HG at the baragain price of half that.
-

Just ¥262,500($3,300 USD), the HG Japan is ¥525,000($6,550 USD) back in 2007
I believe the prices of these have gone up due to rarity of it now, at least that's what I was quoted when I was looking for one, the one I was looking for was the HG and was asking $4,xxx if I remember correctly
-
Yup and good luck even finding someone who is willing to actually sell it
-
Put me down as interested.
Let's see a sample first.
It may be worth 350 if all the details are there, it is not easy to C&C something like this.
-
yes that is quite some work, crap we need to get our hands on one. Which version is that exactly in the US? lol
-
HHKB Pro 2. I don't think you're going to find a difference between the HHKB pro 2 and type-s that would affect casing design. And all the other models of HHKB wouldn't be worth designing for... so I wouldn't worry about them.
I've been trying to decide whether or not I need an HHKB, depending on how the prototypes turn out I might be picking one up as well.
-
The picture where the springs sit through the top piece of the keyboard, is that the same as the us version? The Picture is the Japanese version right?

None of the pictures shown in this thread are from a Japanese version.
The HHKB Pro JP have a different case without USB hub and different layout design.

No worries, I was referring to your pictures. We will have to purchase one soon, we still need to get the TKL! lol

Highly unlikely regarding the price drop.. on the contrary, it might even go up... The top piece is quite complex with each raised square dome for each key.. I can only wonder how many tools we are going to go through to try to get this right... Now i'm beginning to see why there are very few after market cases for the HHKB2
-
I would be in for one I think, just need to see a sample!

No aluminum case made is worth anything near that. It's your problem to design it in such a way that it becomes affordable. Clean up your mold casting process. It shouldn't be on the buyer to cover your mistakes.

Unfortunately it seems like the only way we get things done here is by throwing money at it [ATTACH=CONFIG]51599[/ATTACH]

I would rather have a second HHKB than paying more for a case for it.

Yea its hard to justify for sure, but since a HHKB HG is like > 4k there isn't many other options.

Hey pot, meet kettle.
If you are putting your product out, and want people to buy it... then I can surely question the validity of the cost before making a decision.
Not my fault you feel butthurt about it.
-
Questions are okay, but negative comments are not tolerated. If people does not like the price nor the product, save your negative comments and do not post. Otherwise it will consider thread crapping.
People are more than welcome to make positive suggestions
-
the hhkb casing is a lot more complex than the casing for kbc poker
and also kbc poker cost $100 and the alum case for it sold for $100 as well.
makes sense for the hhkb case to cost $300 imo
-

If you want a fugly cheap cast aluminum HHKB case, you're in the wrong place. Treble doesn't cast aluminum, he has access to a $100,000+ CNC machine. He is offering his time, machine wear, and out-of-pocket money to design the prototype, which as he mentioned, is very complex due to the curved shape of the top section of the HHKB case. Maybe you should go to business school and spend some time in a machine shop before making narcissistic comments next time.

Hi MagicMeatball,
Thanks for the comments, definitely noted. Cost is quite high not to mention machine time and tools required for this complex design.
Also to clarify, I do not WANT or need people to buy this product. I am trying to provide a service for people here that are interested and do not mind a custom and unique product therefore the pricing in accordance to material cost/time/machine time, etc...
Pricing is quite reasonable with the color options and constant improvements made and a nominal cost for the Custom Poker Aluminum Keyboard Trays on my other post. I am not price gouging either if that is what you are insinuating, feel free to review the options provided by us in terms of finish and style. With those options you can compare with other's custom made tray and make your own educated judgement.
I am not mass producing these items, literally making a handful at a time and thus again pricing increase. Our main business is prototyping, not making keyboards and custom trays to sustain our lively hood. I do this on the side as a hobby and wanted to share my interest with other's like minded.
Again, appreciate your comments and should you have any other questions or concerns please do share them tastefully =)
Regard,
treble318

Treble you are going to make me broke! Please do the Filco case first though!

Control your desires!! =) We have both The Filco TKL and the Full size, working on the designs. I'll keep you guys posted and start up a new thread dedicated for FILCO's when they the first prototype is up.
-
When it comes to keyboards I have no control!
Any idea how much the Filco case will be?
(please make an aluminium space bar and modifier keys)

I would say end of June at this point. Pricing will be double the cost of Poker as they are two pieces, top and bottom. I would have to say around $200, we will have a definite answer when the prototype is up.
Regarding Aluminum keys... That's interesting, we talked about the possibility of doing that... That will just open up a whole new can of worms for us. We don't focus on doing this for a living and investing on new equipment and dedicated tools can be quite expensive to make this happen. As such, pricing will be reflected and people may squirm once again.
I will let you know if that ever materializes!
-
I think an aluminum space bar would be crazy popular!

Yeah I had a custom "dabber" lathed (kinda like a dental tool.) Machine shop said it wreaked havoc on their cutting bits. That being said, I'm willing to pay top dollar for them :). Ti FTW!

I don't know if those were actually made of Titanium or not. They look more like aluminum, but I have never seen one in person.

When it first came out it was more the space bar was $100 but prices dropped when people didn't buy it at $100 and now no one makes them anymore because the profit is terrible on such a expensive and hard to work with material, instead they rather work with aluminum much cheaper and easier to work with.

yes the return on investment is almost nothing, the time and tool spent to do these individually surpasses the ROI by far =) You can image the time and be better spent making other products that yield better ROI.
-
You could name your price though and have a better return on investment :) I would happily pay $100 for an aluminium spacebar, more if that was the price you named.
-
haha it's funny how quick this turned into a spacebar interest check post =) Good to know!
-
Yayyyy! Metal spacebar FTW!!!

Back on topic, I am in for one HHKB case :)
-
Put me down as interested. Really would like to see a sample as well!

Interested. I would like to see pics of an actual prototype (I prefer an actual finished product) beforehand before ripping the guts out of my wallet and throwing it at you.
-
treble you're much better off milling some spacebars. topres are famous for having damned shiny spacebars :/
-
Interested in seeing a prototype also.. would the same colors of the poker case be used for the HHKB case? ;o

yes the colors currently offered for the pokers/pure will also be available for the HHKB if done.

Any chance of a coffee colour? If we could get Dolch caps it would look amazing!

yes the colors currently offered for the pokers/pure will also be available for the HHKB if done.
Waaaaaah I want one now. ;_;
-
Whats up with this?
-
Any update Treble?
-
he's busy
-
Nearly everyone that already has a HHKB will be buying this :P Buy the board, use it and then sell it complete with case to someone, that will be snapped up!
-
also interested in seeing a prototype as well!
-
Please do this!
-
I'm 100% in for one, didn't even notice this!
-
I'm in for $250ish range. Why not? My board is already valued at $1000 minimum if I price my clacks at $75ea. What's another $250?!?!?
^___^
-
I believe treble is not operating right now because they are renovating a new facility or something, he mentioned moving in around November so I would assume you should start bugging him around January or February at the earliest. Also if you are really interested in have a case for your HHKB I recommend that you take yours apart and look at the complexity of the case and then re-evaluate how much money you think it would cost to make considering: R&D, Testing, Tooling, Labor, Materials etc. . This is not a poker that just drops into a rectangle by any means. The case is also the top half of the switch housing. Bits will be broken, aluminum will be wasted, time will be lost, and aluminum cases will be freaking expensive so keep that in mind.
-
Very true, got a good bunch of experience CNCing 3D shapes in wood and the amount of mistakes and time is unreal. The drawing alone.
Wouldn't be offended if the price was $450+
Once you've managed to ruin expensive sheets of oak you start to understand machining a little.
Thanks for the info wisk

Anyone know that HHKB pro HG has aluminum top housings? or plastic parts Realforce uses?
-

I never thought of that! If the HG has realforce style topre switches then the case would be a lot easier.
-
If this has a professional fit & finish, I would buy one of these for my Type-S.
I do wonder how difficult it would be to transplant the keyboard into a new shell though? Being all aluminum, isn't there a good chance of shorting something out? Would it affect the feel of the keyboard at all?

There is already a lot of aluminum boards out there and shorting won't be an issue. It will feel much better too, I think most people will agree with me there.
