Massdrop CNC acrylic 60% case
« on: Wed, 21 May 2014, 14:26:04 »
Anyone here buying one? Thoughts on it?

I'm getting one.

I'd really like to try to sand and polish it out to be glass clear, but i'm not sure if thats possible.

Really considering one (even though I already have 3x 60 boards...)

But seems like a new product so there aren't many reviews on it.  For 70 you can get a 3 part acryllic case, so it would be cool if anyone could compare the two.

Decisions decisions..

I was also interested in this mainly because of the pricing, but then if you look at the discussion section, the dropper says they are having a group buy for the aluminum version next week and it should be around the same price. I think I'll wait for the aluminum version because I want the extra added weight and resilience.

Yeah i'll probably buy the alum one as well.
( only if it comes in silver though )

I have 3 pokers, and one has a layered acrylic case, that is pretty crappy, so a CNC'd one should be much nicer.
I like how shallow it looks like its going to be as well.

I quite like the low profile style of this acrylic case, but likewise I'm waiting for the alu version.

Looks like the aluminum group buy was pushed back to later this month.
