Identify this topre slider
« on: Thu, 19 November 2015, 08:56:33 »
Hello, when I purchased my HHKB the seller included a topre to mx slider.
Am I right to identify the slider as 3D printed? Perhaps businesses are now selling these, but I don't know about them.
Bellow I have attatched some pictures.

Looks like 3d printed one from shapeways. be careful putting caps on them. the stem breaks off easily.

Just holding the slider between my fingers it definitely felt very brittle. So this is how folks are making their HHKB's nova touch?

No. They are buying Novatouches and harvesting their sliders.

A link to Topre MX hybrid on shapeways

At 6.65$ a slider that would be 399$ for a complete HHKB mod! Much cheaper to, as absyrd said, harvest them from a CM Storm NovaTouch TKL or a noppoo.

That's what I'm waiting for. You know, for the Novatouch that I harvested the sliders from...
