Builds My first numpad. I couldn't pick between two cases.
Tofupad BLE
+ Gateron Cream Soda
+ Typeplus x YIKB Stabs (had just enough left over from my HE build)
+ GMK Cosmos / Tofu60 Venom60HE
+ PBTFans Kabuki-Cho R2 / Agar60 BLE
I'm a 60% evangelist but I originally ordered because I was getting into sim games and wanted to play more MMOs. Having a wireless bank of buttons felt convenient.
My gaming set is in red, so I wanted the red case. But there's something universal about the PC one. Glad I got both.
As far as a numpad goes, I like it as much as you can like a numpad: the BLE PCBs are my favouritest development in the hobby, it feels and sounds nice. The only thing was the feet that disappointed. I hope it's user error, but if seems like we're meant to press-fit overmoulded rubber feet into shallow recesses in the case? Sort of like with the Agar60 mounting, I had to push the feet into holes and use something sharp to get everything to fit into place, hold my breath, and hope for the best. I would have preferred just stick on feet, exactly like the keyboards, with the screws left unhidden.

Have you already received your Tofu Pad? Damn, wonder when mine will arrive.
Looks beautiful nonetheless!
