KBDfans

KBDfans is one of the largest custom keyboard vendors and also sells a great deal under its own name, from cases and PCBs to foam and tools. For many people it is the single shop where a whole build can be bought at once.

Known for
Range. Cases, plates, PCBs, switches, keycaps, stabilizers, lube and tools in one place, plus its own Tofu case line.
Worth knowing
Being both vendor and house brand means some products carry its name without it being clear who made them, and specifications on listings are sometimes thin. Shipping from China is the norm.
Who it suits
Someone assembling a first custom build who would rather not order from six places.
Availability
Widely stocked
Relationships
Sells its own house-brand products alongside other manufacturers' goods, which is why its type is both.

TOFU60 3.0

60%Hot-swap

A 60% case that can be built as a top mount or a PCB gasket mount, which is unusual, since most cases commit to one and make you buy a second case to hear the other. Both shops list the same menu: aluminum, copper or stainless steel bottom case, five plate materials, and four PCBs covering solder, wired hot-swap, dual mode hot-swap and Hall effect, with a 9 degree typing angle throughout. Connectivity is blank because both listings call the wireless PCB dual mode without once naming the radio. Price is blank too, since the figures shown are configurator starting points rather than the cost of a finished board, and no switches or keycaps are included unless you add them.

OSA Elegant Gray

OSAPBT≈ $80

Doubleshot PBT in KBDfans' OSA profile, which the listing names without describing, so the sculpted field is blank rather than guessed. PBT and doubleshot together mean the legends are molded in and the surface should stay matte, the pair of properties that keeps a set looking new longest. This is an in-stock single-purchase listing at one price, not a group buy split across kits, so the eighty dollars covers the whole set as sold. No kit breakdown is given, so what layouts it reaches is not stated.

Quartz Stone Wrist Rest

Wrist rest

A stone wrist rest is a palm rest rather than a support: it brings the heel of your hand up to the height of the keyboard's front edge so the wrist is not bent back. KBDfans gives 296 x 80 x 20 mm for the 60% size, 320 x 80 x 20 mm for 65% and 75%, and 360 x 80 x 20 mm for 80%, and ships rubber feet with it. The price is blank because it changes with size, and no package weight is listed for the 80% version. The shop also notes that the stone's pattern will not match the photographs.

Switch Films

Switch film

Films are thin shims that sit between a switch's top and bottom housing and take up the slack that lets the housing rattle. KBDfans lists these as 130 per pack, 0.15mm polycarbonate, fitting most Cherry and Gateron switches but not low profile or BOX types. The price is left blank because the only variant in the source data is a single color at one dollar, which does not clearly correspond to the multi-type pack the listing describes.
