Title: Alternative cases for Unicomp keyboards with Windows keys?
Post by: spremino on Wed, 04 December 2013, 08:27:31
Since Unicomp cases look cheap, I'm looking for alternative cases where a Unicomp keyboard would fit without additional work (for instance: making room for the Windows keys on a IBM Model M case).

Are there any? Thanks.

Apparently, a custom case could be ordered:

Speaking of cases, the case was also custom made.  This is one of the coolest things ever.  I made a 3d model using Google SketchUp, and sent it to ShapeWays (http://www.shapeways.com/).  A short time later, an exact plastic copy of my 3d model appeared at my doorstep.  Simply amazing.

I wonder whether the case of a IBM Model M2 would fit, after making place for the Windows keys. In case I manage to find one.
