Next time I'm going to use a Trinket, definitely.

Daaaaaang, that's beautiful. I definitely want to try making a housing like that. I'm still messing around with mine quite a bit. Added an escape key as well, a pot to change the brightness of the LEDs, added a clear top to the keyswitches, and made the LEDs light up upon keypress. I'm going to try adding a dpdt switch to switch between always on and reactive and using a smaller pot (both in the mail).Deimos wrote:

I would like for them to be, I just want to settle on some parts and placements first. Escape on the right isn't really the best idea, you have to move your hand up for your thumb to reach, and I'm not sure if I like the red cap on the button. If all goes well with the parts I have coming in right now, I should have the first few up by early JanuaryZenithPhantasm wrote:
Are those for sale?
If you're selling them, just remember I may be interested as a potential buyer.Thnikk wrote:

I'm planning on making a batch of 10 so there will be plentyInnocentEyes wrote:

Anyway, back to my own keyboard. I'm having trouble with the coding. I have no idea what program to use to change the coding in the Tech Keys Business card. I have the source files, but I have no idea how to change the code in the actual card itself. If anyone has an idea how to do this, please let me know. Thanks
Haha I thought you may run into a problem. Do you have skype or something?InnocentEyes wrote:

Unfortunately my cousin came over and jacked my microphone the other day. He isn't allowed to come over anymore. That just means more waiting for me to replace my mic.Sorun wrote:

hmm... oke... just one problemZenithPhantasm wrote:
What is the polling rate of your homebrewed keyboards?
I haven't noticed any issues with missing keystrokes or latency (and I run these at 16mhz instead of 8,) but this is something I should find out. I hope to have an answer for you within the next few days.ZenithPhantasm wrote:

Yeah but only $10 more for a third key. Excellent value!byfar wrote:
2 keys for 25 dollars. Man I'd rather get me an 108key all purpose mech kb for 100
Not trying to pimp myself here, but even in the US the parts are pretty expensive if you're just buying for one. You really have to be into it for the fun of making it yourself.Gumica wrote:
I'd probably dive into such a project myself, but I fear that the raw materials and parts would cost way more to get them delivered to a third world country, than actually buying the keypad from one of you guys ~.~
When will you make 'em available for us, outside of US, Thnikk :> ?
I'd think about it if enough people showed enough interest in the first batch. I don't think they would be very practical to buy at low volume and I'll already have 30-50 extra blanks at the end of this one.ZenithPhantasm wrote:
Would there be a premium "metal keycap" version?
You're really putting bank into this.Thnikk wrote:

any other website to buy key caps other than techkeys and maxkeyboards ?
Nah, it's not that much. I used to mod Game Boys and those were a lot more expensive to work with. I'll admit it does add up pretty quick when you buy batches of keycaps, though.InnocentEyes wrote:

I like http://www.keypop.net/ and http://keyshop.pimpmykeyboard.com/products (I love double shot keycaps if you guys can't tell)xasuma wrote:

Can anyone tell me the exact dimensions of the techkeys business card? (Im trying to find a perfect fit case for it).
You could also mount it externally if it ends up being too huge with the enclosure (since you'd need something super thin for the keycaps to not be recessed beyond use) and use 2 boxes or just one for the keyswitches. It wouldn't be beautiful but it might make it a little more usable.InnocentEyes wrote:

(edit: Made easier to read)
Are you interested in selling it? Also does it support 1000hz polling or PS/2 (This matters for me)InnocentEyes wrote:
I don't need my osu! keyboard anymore because I just got a Razer BlackWidow with blue backlighting and brown switches. What a rare find, never sold retail. I got a pretty good deal.
I will still make a tutorial in maybe... a few months and put it on my YouTube channel to teach anyone interested how to make their own, though.
I would totally give it out for free, but I messed up the lights on it and it made me pretty depressed.ZenithPhantasm wrote:

As long as it doesn't look broken and works extremely well I could care less about how it looks.InnocentEyes wrote:
