Badwrenches 60% Acrylic case giveaway
« on: Tue, 09 September 2014, 12:26:24 »
Thanks to the generosity of Hoffmanmyster, I now have an new case for my Pure.  As a result, I will be giving away my Prototype 60% Acrylic case that was designed and built by MOZ.  This is the original prototype and as so, has a significant issue - no true mounts for the pcb.  The holes are drilled, but were drilled at 2mm, so most mounting hardware just pulls through.  I don't have the means to get a different base plate made, so I tried a couple experiments.  As a result, there is a bit of steel epoxy around the machined holes.  If you are feeling adventurous, or don't mind mounting completely on risers (the pcb fits very snugly and with a couple sheets of shelf liner doesn't move) let me know.  I will include a bunch of different hardware as well as a both top panels (one semi-trans clear, the other opaque matte black). 

This giveaway is worldwide, but I am asking for half of the shipping unless conus which I will cover. 

Post whatever in this thread for your entry.  When I feel there are enough entries (or if not many people want it), I will end this and randomly pick a winner.

76626-0

With my Pure in it (Pure not included)
76628-1

Here is the worst of the keyboard science fails (I did not try to remove the residue as I didn't want to scratch the case)
76630-2

With the white top plate
76632-3

Was actually wondering if Moz was still working on these.

Solid looking case. Would look great with my future [CTRL]60% with some green LEDs  :thumb:

I wasn't going to get a 60% per se, until the GH60 comes out ... but I'm a fan of the form factor, and I *do* have Enabler PCBs en route....

This is really nice looking case. I have always enjoyed the layered acrylic cases. I think they have a lot of personality. :)

That's really cool, I've been looking at alu trays lately but things have been tight lately.

Hmm, getting a new case + poker 2 with mx clears would not be something to complain 'bout :)) just two more months of waiting for the Poker 2 to arrive :D a case on top of that would be awesome + that case looks awesome !

EDIT: and oh, yeah.. thanks for the giveaway! Almost forgot to say that

Is there a plate layer for plate mount switches or is the case only for pcb mount?

Wow! Thanks for the giveaway Badwrench. I never had a acrylic case b4 or any other cases  for my 2 keyboards. Would love to have this on my poker.

Thank you!

Very nice case. It would fit my soon-to-be-build-60% quite well, even with the color scheme I have in mind. So far I have all the parts apart from custom springs and a nice case.

I feel like I should enter this... because I need a case for my GH60... but then I'd be being greedy.

I would love to enter this one for a friend who just got his poker with clears. He has been looking around for a low-profile case, but doesn't want to spend the price of the keyboard on an alu case. This one fits the bill perfectly!  :thumb:

Just got back from a long horseback ride in the mountains, and next up I have to arrange a GB for ergodox cases. But in the interim I've replied to the PM...
