Very good point, if you include some pictures Treble please label the colors! Gunmetal sounds good but I'd rather look at it ^_^
I too would like to see pictures before deciding. Thanks!

I am hoping geekhack gets back up soon so I don't have to look for the pictures, they are around somewhere!! I would honestly rather be investing my time to complete jobs at this moment as time is pretty much sparse it seems. Hopefully by the end of this week gh gets back up and my detailed information is all there still.

even when we come back up, we almost certainly will not be able to restore the pictures. if you can find them again, that would be ideal

ps, i will be purchasing a new color folks. weigh in now if you'd like to influence what color i buy!!

In what direction will you go? Blueish, yellowish, reddish or greenish?

i was just looking through the powders and there's a matte black carbide crinkle that looks awesome, but i should probably be steered toward a color we don't have yet lol

maybe a green that goes with CC&G. Not buying another one, just suggesting.

Hi treble,

I'm trying to get back into this buy. I was able to keep my Poker, and now want a more elegant way to add weight to the board (not fishing line weights).

One question though: Do either of the cases (3rd batch or 4th batch) fit the thick pbt keycaps from imsto? I have a set of these in blue that I'm currently using, and I remember reading that these keys cannot be used with this case.

Thanks!

Hi Tad,

Good to hear you were able to keep the Poker! Fishing line weights, hmm not a bad idea O_________o

To be honestly I am not sure.... I would have to have a set of the key caps to test, but from what I recall from GH the tolerances of the keycaps are not consistent. Therefore some fit and other's do not =( I do remember some folks shaving the keycaps to make it fit to the tray design.

Jeez, I want at least 3 colours. I only have money for one :/

Now there is an idea. Is it possible to put multiple colours on together, like tie dye?

treble318

18 Jul 2012, 23:20

Multiple color such as tie dye will be very difficult and time consuming... the paint particles are electrically charged to stick to the metal, not sure how evenly distributed the colors will be as well.

Do you make custom colours? And how much more is it?

treble318

18 Jul 2012, 23:57

we do not make custom colors but a custom color can be purchased from sellers:

The cost of powder will be paid by the buyer along with shipping cost to us. ff you want to ensure the paint is virgin and not mixed, a dedicated powder gun will have to be purchased as well for $37. Otherwise there is always a chance of contamination with other colors if used with a recyclable gun.

When will next round orders be due? Can we order them and not have any finishing be done? If so would that lower the price?


I'm having a hard time deciding between yours and oneproduct alum poker case.

Interested on next round possibilities here as well.

Oh, wow. How long are they expected to stay open?
It's hard to decide if I even want to spend that money. Plus black, gunmetal and blue all look awesome…
