[WTB] HHKB 55g
« on: Thu, 21 November 2013, 12:09:18 »
So recently I've fallen in love with my HHKB and topre and now I feel the urge to try some 55g goodness.

So I'm looking for a 55g domed HHKB, and yes I know these aren't very common but I still want one.

So if you got one willing to sell/trade(I don't have a lot for trade but a few things) shoot me a PM

Help me get into 55g
So much topre
Such smooth
wow

Don't these only exist as mods? Were they ever sold?

You will have to gut a 55g Realforce and mod the HHKB yourself. They don't actually exist otherwise...

I would do that but my location makes me have to pay a million dollars in shipping from EK.

How many keys does the hhkb have? I say we buy a full size board and go half on it because I want a 55g hhkb also.
No, he’s not around. How that sound to ya? Jot it down.

Don't quote me on this but I think you'd probably be about 10 short from a full size Realforce.
It's a good width!  If it's half-width it's too narrow, and full-width is too wide.

I've got a few leftover 55g I will trade for 45g domes if it would help.

How many domes?, maybe we could make 2 55g HHKB's with a fullsize 55g and your domes.

I'll have to double check but I've got whatever is left after doing a swap with a hhkb.

The only trick is some domes go in specific place because of LED's etc. Not that they can't be trimmed but I'd rather not cut up domes :P

alternative is to find someone interested in getting a 45g RF? And see if you guys can split the cost that way?

I did this mod on my type-s and it was definitely worth the trouble. I was able to sell the RF on classified np.

What a great idea, if someone is willing to do that we could discuss it over pm. The problem is my location which makes everything EK related quite a hassle.

Black, imo. But are you going to keep it after you swap domes to your HHKB? If so, black.

I think once you use 55g, and if you like it, you won't want to use 45g. It's typically what happens when people do, and just sell the donor board. Plenty of people out there like the 45g just fine, so you won't have an issue selling it and making your investment back, for the most part.

45g sucks after you use 55g. It's like using browns after blues.
