With a massive chin bezel and these two keyboard spacers just hanging out, I decided to put them to work. I used a dry erase sticker and some dry erase tape (links below) to cover up these spots. I bought a pack of ultra fine tip dry erase markers which makes writing on the stickers very practical. The ink is very hard to erase, but the back of each marker has an eraser (or you can scrub with a dry cloth).
It would be nice if Framework could make their own dry erase spacers (for like $20). It seems a lot more practical than some of their other spacer designs (not hating, just being honest). I would definitely buy a double wide dry erase keyboard spacer, but this will work for now.
It’s fine like this, but when I change the GPU module (something I do about once a week or so for various reasons), I have to be very careful taking off the input modules or the sticker will peel and bubble. If it was one solid piece, then it would be fine.
Having one double wide input module with the whiteboard already attached seems like a relatively easy win if they want to keep the input module idea fresh and make a little money. It would require minimal R&D and be relatively cheap to manufacture.
Lol, my crafting abilities seem to peak at putting stickers on things, but a tiny little marker or pen would be a fun thing to put in an expansion card. I know there are little stickers with elastic loops on them to hold pens. I might get one and attach it to the back of the screen. But I already have a hot spot and an SSD velcro-ed to the back. Not sure how much more these hinges can take.
I thought about it, but my (sweaty) palm usually rests around there and the dry-erase ink would probably smudge off.
Feel free to try it. If it works well after a week, let us know.
