Title: Poison Pill Keycap?
Post by: Glod on Thu, 28 February 2013, 15:50:27
was wondering if anyone has ever made a key cap that has a little box you can put like a pill in.

Was thinking about this when i was looking at the relegendable caps. I'm guessing to stay with the profile with the caps it would have to be on the top R1. was thinking like door that rotates open on a single screw.

I know that practically you can jam a pill inside a keycap with some double sided tape and there is a crap load of hollow space on a keyboard lol. But it seems like a cool idea in my head. my guess if it i saw it rendered it wouldn't be as cool as i thought...

edit: when i mean poison pill i mean like those poison pill rings they have

The cyanide keycap...you never know when you'll need it! Or I guess you could always stash away your ecstasy for when a party happens and all you have is a keyboard.

Ahahaha, I don't think it will ever be like it was back in the 90's/early 2000's when I was living in Philly (warehouses, churches, huge Venues in Poconos w/ Rabbit in the Moon, Hartford, NYC, Toronto, etc.), plus I'm in Oklahoma now >.>
Hopefully there will be something going on in Victoria or Hawaii, when I get there :)

Sorry to OT Glod :)

What a great way to hide your stash if it was a full set! or a 10key set.
