Looks great!

Now i need to find someone to trade me a blue/red one for my silver one >_>

Or maybe my silver one would look good with white keys, either way can't wait!!!!

:eek: Those looks great, I think I made the right choice with the red, the anodizing turned out good for it and didnt come out pinkish.

That Blue looks good also and was my second choice.... food for thought for round 2 if it does happen.

Thanks also imsto for the pics... did they ship out already?

Hey I posted that red poker pic, you both owe me something!!

tsangan, that silver case with black keys looks good. I think you should go with black keycaps.

I'm so excited for this. Going to get custom Doubleshot DSAs from SP for this. I'm also going to be ordering a custom PCB for this, and plate. Just need to measure out the dimensions. Can't wait.

From iMavs thread it looks like he has some extra's he ordered and he has some white engraved poker one's. you should pm him to see if he has any left.

Also if dont like the color you can probably just paint it or re-anodize it( not sure if that is possible but maybe)

Does it come with those 2 different height nubs in the last picture to be used as stands?  Either way, can't wait.  =P

Very cool.  It might even look good with some white keycaps (the silver one).

Next round count me in.

I think once these get out the door and into use the demand will be a lot higher.

I agree, but if they can manage to rip people off with a $140 pricetag there not going to release the cad file, I wouldn't think.

If he can sell them for 140 (I think is overpriced too), good for him.

if there is going to be another run of this count me in!

EDIT: and oh yeah **** the newbie haters that say this is a rip-off, ever try try pricing something made to spec via CNC milling and powder coating?

check mountainmods dot com, it makes CNC milled PC cases, mind you i find the pricing quite reasonable.

If you think $140 is unreasonable for a CNC machined block of aluminum that size then you haven't looked at getting it done in the US.

Never said imsto was from the US.  I was commenting to this:

$140 for a CNC'd hunk of aluminum that size is not a rip off.  Hell of a lot cheaper than getting the same thing done in the US (likely the UK where fossala is as well).
