That case is a beauty, especially like the combination white-blue.

It also says on the original post that it is anodized, comes with 3 sets of legs at different height and shapes. The subject of the post is "aluminum keyboard casing series (one of)". That implies there would be more designs in the series later. Interesting.

Imsto is doing the group buy. Isn't he on DT as well? If not, find him on bbs.kbc-china.com.

You haven't even read that topic. 20 made, 8 gone, 12 for geekhack, 0 for deskthority. And Imsto is kbc china. I say fuck 'em, since sixty went through a lot of trouble to sell their crap in Europe.

Yes, I read it. Didn't know about the history though.

The last post mentions it wasn't a one off thing. I agree that it was slack for them not to include DT initially but wouldn't dismissing them lower the chances of us getting included for a possible round 2?

Bad deal anyway. They sold on taobao for 110 dollar, same shipping costs. They're getting ripped off for 30 dollar

I was thinking about getting one, but it is too much for just the bottom. It should cost maybe less than $40US to make (material and labor). It is basically a tub with holes

. And I would not be able to type fast enough on a poker layout.

Yeah it's a bit extravagant for a board that I use maybe 2-3 times a week for 5 minutes each time.

in kbc-poker china forum it should cost 100$ because is artigianal from a private user... very expensive...
