Title: [IC] Acrylic Poker/HHKB/Pure Wrist Rest
Post by: boost on Tue, 22 May 2012, 13:25:20
Got a friend that deals with acrylic and I ask him to make a acrylic wrist rest for my poker. He is in the process of making 2 of these for me and wanted to see if anyone would be interested in one also.

I will have the 2 I order last week in my hands by this Friday.

Price would be between $35-$45 each before shipping, and PayPal fees and will include 4 rubber feet. I estimate $10 for shipping inside the USA. If someone would like to be a proxy for countries outside the USA please post here.

Production time is anywhere from 7-14 business days.

If you are interested please post here and will have pics of the samples this week.

Seems like it'd be uncomfortable.

You can used as a wepon if some wants to take your board ;-b

I am guessing, that the acrylic attracts the scratches

That looks like it would be very similar to the Milestone, which is a great wrist rest.

Are you making 3 diff sizes?

Hhkb is shorter on the front and more narrow side to side than poker

I am interested! But it's too sharp. It doesn't have to be very sharp to feel uncomfortable after an hour.
Frosted color would also be better or it will get tons of scratches in a week.

Just clear because all he has in >1/2 is clear.

Will this work with a Filco TKL?  I'd be interested, that looks nice and clean.  That looks so boss with the name etching.

That's what I was eluding to, I wouldn't mind the milestone but the example boost shows with his name etched into the block makes it so damn boss.......

upon further inspection, seems like you're right, but if you had clear acrylic  like that and it was etched in, would it not be pretty bad ass?
