Title: [SPECIALEEMADE CUSTOM KEYBOARD SLEEVES] 1 Year in Mech Keyboards (GIVEAWAY)
Post by: dummytim on Thu, 31 December 2015, 00:55:47
Well hello all! On Dec 20, 2015, we first posted a few of our sleeves for sale. We didn't expect the number of requests that we got after that. From then on Specialeemade expanded from just selling pencil cases and laptop sleeves locally to selling keyboard sleeves globally.

We appreciate the support even though we aren't the most active vendor. So we would like to give back to the community! :)

Today we will have a giveaway, and it is for a custom keyboard sleeve. Any colour, any style, any fabric (that we have in stock), any interior, and free shipping as well!!

Feel free to enter https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfDLxDz2AkCpje56lYrNCVGz45iRsGc-6bkAvqcF60ebyNV9w/viewform.

If you would like to check out our fabrics and start customizing your potential sleeve in your head feel free to visit http://specialeemade.bigcartel.com/

This giveaway will end at 11:59PM PST on Dec 24,2016, the winner will be notified on Christmas day.

If you have any questions, or would like to purchase something seperately, feel free to send me a PM.

Once again a big thank you to our supporters!! :)

For a custom design would that be a custom pattern/image thing or choosing specific colors?

I'll have to check with the maker about what other colours she has. I do know that she has purple and white for sure. I'll send you a PM once I've spoken to her.

For a custom design would that be a custom pattern/image thing or choosing specific colors?

We don't do printing so it wouldn't be a custom image, we are able to create a new pattern/style but it would cost slightly more than the current price. As for a specific colour scheme, it would be the same price as long as we have those colours in stock.

So a dark navy blue fabric with a brown diagonal Vinyl for a 60%?

It'll still be USD$35 + shipping :)

These look fantastic, and are really reasonably priced too! Do they use real leather?

Unfortunately leather is not used as leather would increase the price.

All of these are made of Vinyl, it's just as durable as leather. A quick note is that Vinyl is often used in furniture repair so this material is made to last a long time.

Oh man, these are gorgeous! Any chance you can do a macbook pro sleeve as well? I'd be very interested in a MBP+TKL sleeve combo.

What size is the MBP? If I can get my hands on it for a proper fitting it should be no problem.

We were talking on reddit but we can discuss here if it makes it easier. Would it also be possible to make a pen wrap ?

According to Google:
Height: 0.71 inch (1.8 cm)
Width: 14.13 inches (35.89 cm)
Depth: 9.73 inches (24.71 cm)

I would love a set of the brown/black. Damn.

It is vinyl, so I guess it could be stated as fake leather.

We will be slowing down production as both the maker and myself are busy with school.

If you are looking for a sleeve, we still do have some in stock. Send me a message and we will be able to hook you up with one.

I don't even make these myself :P

These designs are the brainchild of my cousin and she sews all of the sleeves. She's been sewing for like almost 10 years or something, and has even made dresses for her sisters.

Hey there, I've messaged you on Reddit regarding a local transaction. I just saw you here as well so decided to send you a message here too just to be safe.

Respond on whichever you feel most comfortable on and we can talk there I guess?

Updated current stock. We will currently be slowing down in taking custom orders as both myself and the maker are busy with school. If you would like a custom order please contact me and we will try to work something out.

I do not yet, I just joined the group buy the same week!  The JD45 is 1x1.00 key cap longer from what I can see.  The Planck has 12 across and the JD45 has 13.

Just wanted to say thank you to dummytim and his cousin for a custom sleeve for my JD45 coming in a couple months!  It looks awesome and it is really well put together.  They also took the time to make sure it would fit the JD45 even though I had ordered a 40% sleeve which your typical 40% is slightly smaller.  Pok3r for scale.
