Title: I just got my poker
Post by: The_Beast on Wed, 08 August 2012, 17:48:46
All I have to say is I love it and it was packed SUPER well. No damage that I can tell in the 5 minutes I've been typing with it.

Out of curiosity, what are the switches? I have been (like many others) been keeping my eyes out for reds, but it seems like the only Pokers available are brown.

I got browns but I'm going to mod them to ergo-clears. With a poker stem switches are easy, so I would just buy one and mod to the switch you want, it's pretty easy since it's PCB mount

imsto's pokers have brown switches.

The_Beast: really? Pretty sure I use cheap shipping options too and mine arrived in like a week o-o Most of the stuff he sends to me generally take about a week to get here. Most shipments that I follow tracking for only take about a week or a little more.

Yeah I'm on the west coast. Mine shipped out on the 26th and I got it on the 4th, lol. I think I paid like.. a few days before it shipped out.

I watched the tracking on mine, it went through New York for some reason and I live in Wisconsin. I wonder if my Poker saw the Panama Channel?

That cobalt-ish color is totally boss. Also I like your woodwork! out of curiosity have you ever considered having a piece that attaches to the bottom of the wrist rest for the keyboard to sit on, so that they never move apart?

I'm making one for a member like that (keyboard on a board w/ integrated rest) right now :D

I've gotta say, those rests look totally bad ass. I think I need the padding I have on my wrist rest though--it's a cloth-top gel thingy that I've had, startlingly, for like eight years, but whenever I use laptops or basically any other machine my wrist bones get sore as hell because apparently I type with my hands at somewhat of an angle instead of rolling them inward. Which is a bummer, because again those rests look totally bad ass.

Wow beast that is one of the nicest looking keyboards I've seen in a while. What keycaps are you using?
Title: Re: I just got my poker
Post by: The_Beast on Thu, 16 August 2012, 11:18:09
Graphite set. It's a knock off of the sets that come on a Dolch keyboard.


Thanks btw ^_^

The dolch style keycaps are from Round 1 and Round 3 (retro set).  The keycaps in The_Beast's photo is called the 'Blue and Graphite' set by SP.  Originally, I believe this was a color and font scheme designed by one of the Korean forums....
