Update 9/13/16Hello everyone! Since the thread is shifting more towards a more changelog-style format, I'll be trying to conform to that here. The new keypads are up on the shop and there is one addition to the lineup while one has been taken away.
All models...now use 3D printed cases. It's been a log time coming, but they're finally here.
are smaller! 65 to 52 mm, 35 to 32 mm, and 20 to 15 mm.
have more accurate cutouts for the switches, micro-USB port, and side button.
use tactile switches instead of the previous panel-mount buttons. These are a bit lower profile and also give tactile feedback wen pressed.
use "suction tape" instead of the previous scotch restickable tabs. In my experience so far it's been a but more resilient and sticks to the keyboard side much better.
All models EXCEPT for the LED model...can have their switches opened.
No model specific updates, but we can now welcome...
The 4K Keypad!Thank you to everyone for their patience. I've been wanting to make this for a while now and was finally able to do it with my 3D printers.
Side ProjectsThere are also some other things I've been working on. Here is the Baka Mouse (name subject to change) and the 1K Keypad.
The Baka Mouse (name subject to change) is intended to imitate the trackpoint experience found on an IBM Thinkpad (no, not Lenovo with their clickpad.) It's meant to sit below your keyboard centered under your spacebar, so you can type and move your cursor without having to move your right hand (or left if you're a lefty) away from the keyboard. This is especially useful when programming or for anything keyboard intensive. It's a bit too tall right now and the buttons are too small, but I've been wanting to make this for about a year now so it's nice to finally have a prototype.
The 1K Keypad was made for someone who wanted to use my keypads for a cognitive science experiment. It doesn't exactly fit for osu, but I designed it so I may as well put it up on the shop! I'm still working out the kinks but that will be coming soon.
I also painted and reprinted some of the parts for my Project Diva controller. Not exactly sure where I'm going with this, but I'm happy to have it to play Future Tone. I do plan on adding some additional lighting effects with the analog sticks soon, but it's kind of low priority at this point.
