    ::

    Hey guys, I have been hanging around these fourms for a while now and finaly decided to sign up and post.
    I have had my dremel for a long time now and have been doing small projects nothing big. But the black mesa case mod inspired me to do a keyboard mod rust style. After that I modded my mouse, and another to match the keyboard, and at this moment I have some bondo setting on another keyboard to match my first mouse mod.
    keyboard and mouse mods seem to be a bit lacking around here other than led mods.
    My case is one of those stock mod cases I just put a sticker on it to make it look cool (my company's logo,) if anyone cares I will take some pics.

    so anyway I just wanted to say "hi"
    and ask if anyone had some suggestions for other keyboard/mouse mods, and the front of my boring case.

    :D

    Ooh, I like those; they look like something that you'd find in an archeological dig.

    wow, i *really* like the bone modded mouse, its like a ribcage.... uhh, yeah, hence the name bones i guess, lol.

    im keen to see some of your casework, cause those mice and keyboards look awesome. im very impressed (but nothing, not even king billys money bags will make me change my k/b and mouse!)

    actually, after looking a second time, the brown mouse seems somewhat reminiscant of something alienesque that ive seen somewhere. i cant remember specificly, but it just seems oddly like ive seen that surface somewhere.

    Ok i like the top mouse but the bottom one looks like crap, change the colour a bit, make it look more fossilised.

    A good mod to your keyboard is to cutout the letters and numbers on your keys and then make led shine throught the back of them. This way your letters will glow. It will be time consuming but it will look tight. You will probably need real small files to do this.
