Title: GH60+Gateron+Icing Led+Transparent Case
Post by: simonyunhe on Thu, 21 May 2015, 01:29:05
Just got my first GH60 and assembled it.

The switch I want is Brown, but  the store is run out of the Brown which has only 40 of them. So I decide why not mix switches and try something different.

The layout of the keyboard is also different and this it the reason why I build it for my own.

Just figure it out and the outcome is not so bad.

This pcb is just good enough to do the job and very easy to map whatever key you want at any location. I have using this one for 2 weeks, everything is just fine. Love this board.  :p

This one is almost identical to my poker2 white case,  i guess this is just the mod of original poker2 case.

Sure, taobao is a place you can find lots of things like this.

Wow

I was in love with that case, from the infinity drop, good to learn the origin

I should probably start buying stuff from taobao too

Thanks for the suggestion and the problem is this time i only have the Taihao Miami set with me and the Miami is not fit for the new board. I have to take the CapsLock to put on the right shift.  ;D

As soon as you understand some basic Chinese, you will be fine to purchase the products from taobao, the only problem is most of the shop do not shipping internationally.
Aliexpress.com is an English version of taobao, the price in this website is more expensive, but most of the time, the shipping is include in the price, so there is reason to charge more.
Another way is there are some purchasing and marketing agency to help people purchasing stuff from taobao, they do all the purchase job in China and you pay 5% fee for services. Here are some  link: www.86daigou.com/www.dotdotbuy.com/www.panli.com/ If you have further questions, let me know.

I used aliexpress a lot before, but generally it's been lacking significantly, especially for the mechkb hobby, it's lacking very significantly

Thanks for the links and the suggestions, I'm certainly planning to invest a bit in taobao and china proxy discovery soon
