60% Alternative Keyboard Cases
« on: Fri, 11 March 2016, 09:59:36 »
TGIF Ladies and gents,

I am looking for a flat, non-angled case for my Pok3r. My wrists cannot take it as is. I've seen the ever-popular TEX in numerous colors & acrylic as well but I really don't want to spend more on a case than the original keyboard.

Are there any cool vendors or custom options for 60%? I can't seem to find any on google and quickly browsing stickies.

If nothing pops up, I will most likely get the TEX Acrylic, despite hearing it's rather flimsy, from mk.com.

Are those hollow center cases available anywhere? Or other neat options?

Thanks

Got access to a 3D printer ?

There are also a lot of acrylic cases on Aliexpress and Taobao.

There's a cheap clear plastic one on AliExpress. I bought one and although the build quality isn't fantastic compared to the more expensive options (You get what you pay for), it's sturdy enough to do its job.

Alternatively, check out Ziptyze's 3D-printed cases. I haven't had the chance to order and use one myself, but a lot of people have said good things about them. You could also print it yourself for more customization since childofthehorn linked Ziptyze's case design.

Depending on your timeframe, there's usually some pretty good deals on Massdrop.  Right now, all they have is the Lambo, but they just had quite a few end recently, so they should (hopefully) be back soon.
