Rehousing A Keyboard?
« on: August 08, 2009, 05:48:15 PM »

So I basically destroyed my SA2's case last night. I was just going to scrap the whole project because it's been giving me problems ever since I stated. But at the same time I didn't because my girlfriend gave me the keyboard and I'd feel bad if I just threw it out, plus it has some cool bends. I would like to rehouse it and be able to use the keys too, does anyone know how I should go about doing this? I would prefer to just use the keys that came with the SA2 rather than getting new ones or using momentary buttons.

well you could try using Bolsa wood to make a new enclosure and some how screw the plactic keys into it. Just have a look at how the keyboard case is made and measure it up then  rebuild a case to match size etc. bolsa is easy to use you dont need a saw just a good sharp blade like a craft knife and a stanly blade but bolsa is a bit weak!!
