Title: 60% Koreans
Post by: hwood34 on Sun, 27 April 2014, 21:39:23
Don't really know much about korean custom boards, but I was wondering where I could find 60% boards. I've looked at ones on GON, and I can't stand the layouts of KMAC happys

Alternative to GON/sprit stuff: get a 2TU made by Kaliet.

They are custom.

Most of them have aluminium cases.

Yes. Machining aluminium isn't cheap.

Wow, the 2TU is one seriously compact case!!

Looks pretty damn amazing. Hypothetically speaking, how/where do you order or organise such a board. I only seem to be able to find lots of pictures but don't seem to be able to navigate around to find more than that on the linked website.
