I've wanted one of these for ages but I thought it was a limited group buy. P3D has the goods, and they are worth it!

For whatever reason, I was in the mood for pink. The pastel acrylic colours P3D has are so nice, and using frosted radiant for the base was a no-brainer.

I also had P3D cerakote my encoder knob to go with the case. It doesn't match but it's close enough for me.

Build was super easy. The guide has tonnes of pictures which I really need because assembling acrylic cases makes my brain go all funny for some reason. These also use a super strong adhesive for the top layers which I would have 100% messed up without a visual guide. I love that all the adhesive is also laser cut, but if I ever have to peel the back off something like that again it'll be too soon.

Specs are fairly simple:

  • P3D Le Chiffre stacked acrylic case
  • tominabox1 Le Chiffre rev 2.1 PCB
  • EC-11 encoder
  • 128x32 OLED
  • Gazzew Boba switches
  • GMK screw-in stabilisers; clipped, lubed and band-aid modded
  • GMK Analog Dreams R1 (for now. If I can get past my RSI, I will get some DES in white for this because I really want it to look like a mouth)
