I like that case more than almost any of the aftermarket ones, but not loving the price to get it.  Also, considering how long the poker diy thing took, I'm not loving the possible time it could take to receive this.

Not really:

Pure: $114
Treb alum case: $120

Total: $234


However if you already have a pure than yes it is. But you can always sell the PCB to recoup quite a bit of money

okay, so you folks have few concern,
1. The price
tinlong will try to get the price lower, but don't expect much. :)
2. Time
As usual, tinlong can get the board for few days (within one week)  ;)

It looks like this case is the one that has the really shallow edges/rims. Similar to the prototype picture vortex showed a while back. I'm interested in case only.

How much will shipping to singapore be?

I believe so, since the Pure is PCB mounted.

EDIT: I stand corrected

Nope, you have to solder because of the LEDs.

Right, what is the difference between this and a poker? is it just backlit?
Title: Re: [IC] KBTalking Pure CNC Limited edition (shipping UPDATEDDD!!!)
Post by: noxwood on Mon, 19 November 2012, 11:17:53
The fn layers are different, and there's a non-conventional tilde stuck right next to the right shift, which makes swapping caps for the whole board not as easy.

If anyone wants just the PCB and keys I'll take the case off your hands. PM me to work out a deal.

Yeah, sorry to join the ranks tinlong, but I'd love just the case :) Love the low profile edges.

Replying here too... are the CNC cases still for sale? Any update on LED colors?
Title: Re: [IC] KBTalking Pure CNC Version
Post by: ideus on Tue, 26 March 2013, 21:08:19

Maybe the only way to get one case is buy one keyboard and harvest it  :)  It is not a sound economic way to get one though.

Any way to get only the aluminum case?

If I had to make a guess, it would be that he sold all the aluminum cases and only has caseless Pures left.

Good guess. :)

I don't think so. He told me he had gotten the Pure cases from a local reseller when he bought the boards and that he could get plastic cases so then he'd case the Pures he stripped the aluminum cases from.

Ever wonder why tinlong is trying to get those Vortex plastic cases for us? ;)
