Spherical Topre niceness! And a cylindrical nav keys, F-row and numpad just for comparison's sake. Whatever your taste in thocc they have got you covered!

What's on the other end of the cable? Is it usable as a modern JIS keyboard?

Cool topre. Why alpha caps are spherical but rest not?

Did you like the quality of the plastic ( thickness ) . And in general, how does typing feel ?

It’s just average topre hi-pro pbt, looks like 45g domes, but the spacebar feels a bit stiff, because of using 2 additional springs.

Right. That’s why I asked. Suspected it would be something odd. Don’t know why, an old timer’s intuition.

Beautiful, I love the color scheme. Which kind of topre switches does it use?
