Pink Topre caps
« on: Tue, 31 March 2015, 15:53:15 »
Anyone have any idea where these can be found? I've searched high and low and had no luck. Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks

They have been out of production for a while now.  Topre also seems to have little interest in producing new sets.

Maybe one day we'll have some step up and fill the market, but for now, Nada.

Your best bet is hunting them down via classifieds or ebay and probably pay $130+

Pink caps for Topre? They wouldn't be shaped like little boobs, would they? Seems appropriate in light of the description some have used for what it feels like to type on a Topre.

"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

I wonder if they grey colored caps would come out a slightly different color with the dye or not.

They will.  You can try to mitigate that by dying the white ones longer or adding a hair of grey iDye poly powder to the mix.  It was different between my mods and alphas with purple.

I see everything through rose-tinted glasses, so all my caps are pink.
