Hi all, first post here. I’d usually head over to r/OLKB but… ya know.

I bought the 1UpKeyboard Pi50 PCB when it came out. It’s a raspi powered preonic kind of board but I’m not a fan of the laser cut acrylic case they were punting. I’ve made a steel sandwich case for my Iris keyboard and it worked out okay’ish. A little rust and I screwed up the screw hole so they’re not all aligned.

I’ve got a quote from laserboost and it;ll be around $120 for a single case from them. It drops to $90 per unit for 2+ and $70 for 10+. The Iris case cost me about $40 for a single unit from a fab shop in my old town but unfortunately I moved to the USA and can’t access them anymore. Does the laserboost pricing seem a little high to anyone else or is this standard? Does anyone have any suggestions for other service providers?

    No answer to your specific question regarding laserboost, but your imgur link works for me.

      Yeah, it’s more that the thumbnail isn’t working. But I see everyone else is using some kind of lemmy pic URL. So I guess that might help.
