Hipyo, marble is porous.
Will leave water/grey/brown stain during watering of plants moving forward without layer of sealant. Take note. Love it.

[simrock_]

For watering your plants, may I suggest using a small syringe? Seems somewhat safer than a spray bottle, even if it's just a display piece ;)

[huntzzio]

wait a minute, a keyboard case of entirely marble??? wow!
you should put ceramic keycaps on this

[Rivenwolf_]

There we go, Hipyo has seemlessly combined two amazing hobbies that could potentially change the keyboarding and houseplant hobby forever!

[OfficialCrystalSings]

I feel like this concept would also work really well with tillandsias - air plants - since they don’t actually need any soil. It looks pretty cool with the succulents!

[bidoofus]

I adore this and now I want to make my own lmao. Great execution, love the marble aesthetic. In another universe I could see a version of this with drainage holes; then maybe you could put the keyboard on top of a 1-2 mm layer of cork to absorb the excess water. Would probably still want to work with something that doesn’t need to be watered often like these succulents either way, but I love the idea.

[munchkinmeep]

The bag it came in is crochet! And honestly a very nice packaging touch.

[beaudubois]

First he compels me into this freakin hobby and thousands of dollars later I'm expecting my 7th keyboard in the mail... and now this?! Hipyo must be stopped before I'm forced to get this case and put plants in it too T_T /kidding I love this content Hipyo! It looks stunning and sounds amazing. My addiction to RGB and transparent/pudding keycaps keeps me from getting oil kings but they sound so good

[Aura]

Soo good! Also you inspired me to build my custom keyboard a redragon k552 with a lavender and purple half on the back with foam mod tape mod lubed akko lavender purples with foam pads and pbt octupus keycaps and accency stabs and you inspired me to do all of this thank you so much hipyo

[MarcoCarag]

I always love these truly wild projects you do -- living the term "custom" far more than average, in my opinion. I look forward to seeing how these little guys progress over time!

Also, as an owner of the Mason 60 who also attempted a gummy o-ring mount, I also learned the hard way that it wouldn't work. Though, if the solution is simply to change stabilizers, I might try again.

Plants in a keyboard why not a tree in a keyboard

[wildrs_side]

this is the most gorgeous keyboard ever i dont care what you say IT HAS PLANTS!!!

[SanteEly]

the succulent pot is actually gorgeous man
btw it would be easier for you to cut the stems a bit shorter despite the roots, those little bloops are perfectly capable of growing some more out of the thin air (literally), so you could plant them in plain gravel because of that and they'll do just fine without the risk of ruining the keyboard by sand and soil. As for watering they can go weeks and months without it and even thrive and grow more dense prettier rosette, so I would't bother too much with these babes until they grow some roots and then just watered them from time to time with a straw. Looking forward seeing more plant content!

[LexiClipsThings]

This is awesome! I work with plants and this honestly didn't stress me out as much as I thought it would. You seem pretty knowledgeable of plants, so I think I have faith they'll live. Succulents are kinda hard to kill anyway. xd

[LonelyRavenProductio]

@Hipyo Tech so 1000R - That's literally the radius of the curve if it was drawn as a full circle. So if it was a 500r, it would have a tight curve, if it was a 1500r it would be a more gentle curve. I'm however not sure if they are talking CM or inches, but the gist is to imagine a full circle, the bigger the circle the gentler the curve.

[DrDingsGaster]

me: -stares at my keeb-
also me: -turns to stare at some of my plants-
also, also me: -wishes he could make a plant keeb too-

That build looks absolutely lovely though!

[brandonlow]

Enamel filling is really easy. Get some testors model paint and use a toothpick to glob it in. Then just clean it all up with something like alcohol and a paper towel. Everything left will be in the grooves 🙂

[Bivs_setup]

So Italian looking in the marble. Like my parents home entrance 🤣

[victoria]

PLANT CONTENT!! 15/10 would watch more plant content!

[sweeperchick]

Yes, let's get some houseplant content. I just built my first keyboard (the Zoom65 Olivia light) and I have to give everyone in this hobby props for precision and patience.
