Norbatouch case

I would like to try this case with my Novatouch, anyone willing to sell it? Ideally APERTURE color.
Probably not easy to find one nowadays...

Does anyone have it? How does it feel like? Worth the price compared to stock plastic case?

Hammerschlaglack-Surpremacy. I have never seen metal keyboard cases with a hammer finish before. That's a rare thing, right?

Of course it's not hammered. It's the finish/coating. Name has historic origin: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hammerschlaglackierung

Metal cases with hammerschlag look SO sexy.

Norbauer has a lot of them, but other then him, i´ve not seen many. (Mostly one-off customs on r/mk)
I myself toyed with the idea of doing this. I already have a paint can of Hammerschlag paint in a dark green. But as I discussed with browncow, getting it to stick on something else then metal is pretty hard.

How about actually hitting it with a hammer, yourself? If you set a metal case aside for whenever you’re appropriately angry, it could be quite therapeutic.

I like that idea. If you use a hammer of an appropriate size you should in theory be able to achieve the same effect over time :mrgreen:
