I just got my poker
« on: Wed, 08 August 2012, 17:48:46 »
All I have to say is I love it and it was packed SUPER well. No damage that I can tell in the 5 minutes I've been typing with it.

Out of curiosity, what are the switches? I have been (like many others) been keeping my eyes out for reds, but it seems like the only Pokers available are brown.

I got browns but I'm going to mod them to ergo-clears. With a poker stem switches are easy, so I would just buy one and mod to the switch you want, it's pretty easy since it's PCB mount

imsto's pokers have brown switches.

The_Beast: really? Pretty sure I use cheap shipping options too and mine arrived in like a week o-o Most of the stuff he sends to me generally take about a week to get here. Most shipments that I follow tracking for only take about a week or a little more.

I watched the tracking on mine, it went through New York for some reason and I live in Wisconsin. I wonder if my Poker saw the Panama Channel?

My understanding is that it is end of life.  Is that still accurate?

That cobalt-ish color is totally boss. Also I like your woodwork! out of curiosity have you ever considered having a piece that attaches to the bottom of the wrist rest for the keyboard to sit on, so that they never move apart?

I've gotta say, those rests look totally bad ass. I think I need the padding I have on my wrist rest though--it's a cloth-top gel thingy that I've had, startlingly, for like eight years, but whenever I use laptops or basically any other machine my wrist bones get sore as hell because apparently I type with my hands at somewhat of an angle instead of rolling them inward. Which is a bummer, because again those rests look totally bad ass.

Graphite set. It's a knock off of the sets that come on a Dolch keyboard.


Thanks btw ^_^

The dolch style keycaps are from Round 1 and Round 3 (retro set).  The keycaps in The_Beast's photo is called the 'Blue and Graphite' set by SP.  Originally, I believe this was a color and font scheme designed by one of the Korean forums....
