Much of Retro DSA is out of here, so I was able to complete a little project I call the Poker Plate:
Modified plate from The_Beast.
Poker PCB from iMav.
Switches from Bro_Caps.
Keycaps from you-know-who.
Design by samwisekoi.This design uses a flanged Poker plate in place of a case. Today I am using Sanctuary keycaps, but tomorrow Retro Green? Also, as soon as they come in, I shall replace the spacebar switch with a tactile Gray and the Fn switch with a locker.
This could be done to any of the GH60 plates, resulting in a pretty inexpensive custom keyboard.
- PCB
- Modified plate
- Switches (harvested?)
- Keycaps (also harvested?)
- A little bit of rubber U-channel to protect the desk.
Done.
In stainless this feels nice and solid. The flanges make the plate
very stiff.
FWIW, my new Poker Plate.
