Carrying case/bag for Poker 2
« on: Wed, 06 August 2014, 10:28:42 »
Hello,
soon I'll be moving my poker 2 daily in a backpack . I considered using the box it came in but It's kind of big .

What do you guys use to carry around your boards ?

I ordered a case from the thread Kraksx linked and absolutely love it. I carry my poker II to work with me every day, and will be bringing it to classes with me when I go back to school at the end of january. They are well made and look sweet. Oh and they also protect my keyboard from my car and the rest of the stuff I carry around with me.

If it matters to you my poker II is in a tex case with DSA caps. Intelli is pretty good about getting measurements right so that the cases properly fit your keyboard as well, which is pretty sweet.

I've heard the above mentioned handmade cases are pretty good, but if you want some more options I bought one of these:

For a while I carried my Poker II around in it and now I'm using it to carry my HHKB Pro II.  Its a snug fit and it's nice because it has additional pockets for a cable or something
else you want to stuff in there.

I only have experience with the ones Krak linked, but they are pretty sturdy and I would not have any issue sticking it in my backpack. I may be careful if it's super full with all kinds of heavy nonsense or way over filled, but an average filled bag I wouldn't give it a second thought.
