Hellocodes's Custom Poker
« on: Sat, 02 March 2013, 07:01:47 »
-----------------------------------
Just a quick and dirty picture after a long night of modding:
-----------------------------------



-----------------------------------
Info:
-----------------------------------
Switches: Modded Clears
Mods: Stainless Steel Plate, Pink Stickers, Lubed with SuperLube (springs, sliders and stem)
Other: PCB Mount Cherry Stabilizers


-----------------------------------
Some time stats:
-----------------------------------
Adding Switches to plate: 20 minutes
Removing switch tops: 15 minutes
Stickering: 45 minutes
Lubing: 1 hour 45 minutes
Installing stabilizers + plate w/ switches: 30 minutes
Total Time: 3 hours 35 minutes


I guessed about 4 hours, so I wasn't too far off. Now it just needs to be soldered, stuck in a case and shipped to hellocodes :D

That looks like an awesome Poker.  Hellocode is hella fortunate to have such a nice board.

Nice job Beast! Thank you for sharing your build summary. I'm sure my build will take twice as long, but it's nice to know what I'm in for.  ;D

Love that detail!

Looks great! Aren't those plate mount cherry stabilizers?  :)

Quote from: The_Beast on Sat, 02 March 2013, 15:27:31
Yup, those are PCB mount stabilizers

lol what? I asked if they were Plate mount, and you said yup, they're PCB mount. I thought both PCB and Plate mount existed  :confused:

They are a soft face plate mount. I didn't know the difference until now. Guessing these are a bit more secure?

The switches you sent are plate mount, Jocelyn was asking about the stabilizers which are PCB mount.

The difference between a plate and PCB mount switch is that that PCB mount switches have two little legs on the bottom that make sure the switch is aligned with the PCB. Plate mounts don't have/need the legs since the plate should be doing the aligning.

Thanks for clearing that up.

3h35 to turn a poker into an awesome poker, that's totally worth it.
This in an alu case will feel just great, nothing like a stock poker
Enjoy hellocodes :)
