Title: HHKB Pro 1 case is really creaky, halp
Post by: burn1nsun on Thu, 26 March 2015, 13:19:09

It feels solid when typing on it, but when I press the sides it feels like there was a screw missing or something, does anyone know how to fix this?

I Fixed it really easily! Actually typing on it feels more solid aswell now!

Just by adding some paper slabs between the case in front and back, I havent cut em shorter yet, I have a feeling that they will fall inside the case when I do that, if someone has a better idea what to do than this then hit me with it!

Use double sided thin foam tape instead of paper.
