+*** Cost-saving Options
+
+There are a few ways to lower the cost further. Using [[http://mechanicalkeyboards.com/shop/index.php?l=product_detail&p=482][Matias]] key
+switches could save you a fair bit if you go in on a 90-pack with
+someone else, but they're a little harder to find keycaps for; the MX
+caps won't work on them. Using wood for the case will reduce both the
+materials cost as well as the amount of time needed to cut the case.
+
+Replacing the colored acrylic with transparent might also save a few
+dollars. You could also use thinner acrylic for the switch plate too;
+I cut mine in 4.5mm. A thinner spacer is inadvisable; even with 6mm
+it's pretty tight.
+
+Another common trick is scavenging keycaps and switches from used
+keyboards; something with Cherry or Alps switches should work. This
+can be time-consuming though.
