Hey everyone! I'm currently looking for a way to add some heft to my cheap magicforce 21 with gateron reds. It's quite well made for the price and with a quick replacement of keycaps it becomes immediately better. The only issue I have is if you have the rubber feet down it wobbles a whole lot making it almost unusable. While I'm doing a complete remodel of the keyboard (replacing the cheap stabilizers, adding heavier springs etc.) I want to find a discreet way to add weight to greatly reduce the wobble and have it shift around less. My current options seem to be some sort of heavier case to replace the plastic bottom shell or adding custom cut sheets of metal to the internals of the bottom shell.
The issues are as follows...
1.You cannot get a aluminum case for the odd layout, and even if you could it would cost more than the board itself.
2.I don't know what type of metal would be best and how I could shape it with "household" tools
3.I don't know if the metal would fit between the bottom shell and the circuit board, or if it would case any issues with wiring or electronics.
If any of you have some kind of knowledge in this area I would appreciate if you could give me some guidance. Thanks!
