I finally got my refund for a failed transaction and I'd like to pimp my Poker a bit.
Already got orange PBT blanks ordered (which I kind of regret), not sure what to do next.
I might also consider buying another board (maybe the keycool one?).

What would DT User do?
Suggestions appreciated.

how about...
-make a new case out of wood (wood + tools if you dont have them will be well under $90)
-paint your old case
-do a stem swap (ergo clears are cool, as are ghetto greens, but I don't like heavy switches on PCB mount boards)
-get a cool custom cable from whiskerbox on GH or maarten if he is still making them

Custom wrist rest or what sth said about ergo-clears

- Different case (wood, aluminium, whatever material)
- Change switches (de-/soldering is required for the switches with LEDs)
- Wrist rest (also whatever material, pick something you like)
- Or perhaps another keycap set (ps sells PBT keycaps made for Pokers here and on GH)

I got my Poker just two days ago.
My roadmap is:
- Buying engraved black PBT keycaps. Check. (not here yet)
- Getting a Pure case from treble. Check. (not here yet)
- Getting custom cable or sleeving it myself.
- Maybe changing the switches
- Maybe a metal plate for mounted switches.
- Maybe use some of my 300 spare 50A custom made o-rings.
- Maybe wrist rest. Don't know the material yet.

I hope there was one or two ideas which you can use for your own purposes

Think about it in silence or start an off-topic thread. /grumpy


7bit will gladly take your money though.

Could get a pure case from oneproduct for a little cheaper than the treble cases which would probably fit in your price range.

Think of it as a good start towards a proper keyboard

A DT user would spend double, knowing he shouldn't.

A GH user would spend the quadruple, and all of this would be on novelty keys.

Typical keyboard enthusiast waiting for pay day.

And then on payday:


...and after six years of being paid monthly, I still can't manage my funds properly lol

And then this will happen:
