yeah I know but people don't buy ergodox anymore and Drop is not willing to produce a kit that sells just a dozen copies... times have changed since a few years ago Unfortunately this makes a lot of sense. I guess people don't buy Ergodox sets, cause most people use other split orthos and don't fin...

I recently saw a lot of people using flipped R4 MT3 on the thumbcluster of Kyrias, Cornes, Lily58 etc. I wonder if it maybe would be a good idea to include some flipped caps (maybe on the Dye-sub sets, than I guess this would be a problem with the molds) or some R4 blanks. And maybe it's just me, bu...

Yea, I really like them too. But I'm also happy I don't have to use the ISO enter. Maybe you should add a picture of it to the page.
Could you tell us what SP colors would probably match? Or do someone else know? I really would like to buy a matching spacebar too.

Sounds great! Maybe you could also consider the Atreus and Preonic users in the next ortho set, with an additional set containing some 1,5 blanks and a num row. It seems 1,5 blanks would be possible in K and Q series.

Since the spacebar is from Signature Plastics, could you tell us the color code for it?
Oh and good luck with the Skidata set, hopefully it will at least sell as good as the Retroist set.

Is this keyboard still a thing for you, so do you plan on buying the set? It would be a shame to let this custom project die if not.

Just to finish this thread: Czarek from FalbaTech asked me to send it in (I have bought it used from someone here on the forum). The PCB had some kind of malfunction and he switched the PCB out. I had to pay for the PCB, but I didn't had to pay for his work, which seems more than nice. Especially si...

Sounds like a fun company to work with. The K-series really looks great, if you ignore what they have should looked like, but at least on the pictures floating around the skidata set looks like the last set I would buy from Devlin.

That's some good news.

And now I'm pretty curious, it sounds like you've seen the Rad-Away-set in real life, could you post a better picture?

I guess you're talking about rad-away, cause it seems Skidata would look the same even if Devlin had a year to produce it, since they probably won't buy new molds for the missing key-sizes.

Good to know, I've ordered some modifiers to go along with this set, from SP and they are way more red. Thank you.

I'm not in for the Rad-Away caps but they are so off ... you can't be serious.

He can't be serious? To me it looks like Devlin screwed it and UKKeycaps apologies for it and offers a complete refund. What else can he do?
I hope the skidata @ is some kind oft exception.

Could you post some images from the outside?

That already looks very interesting, even if you know the split atreus made by this reddit user. I'm curious to see the final build. Have you considered using glow in the dark keycaps from Signature Plastics?

The black on black caps look amazing. I would buy a set instantly.

Thank you anorak. I guess this HAS to be the problem, but I can't find something which looks like this. There isn't something on the bottom side of the plate and I tried to see something by looking between plate and PCB, using a flashlight, but couldn't find something suspicious too. I already remov...

Thank you vvp Unfortunately I can't see through the PCB, even in bright sunlight. But I'll get some isopropanol and clean it, to find something. I checked the area around the Teensy/MPC but didn't found anything suspicious. I thought maybe I accidentally connected something on the other side of the ...

Good call and the PCB IS dirty. It doesn't look pretty good what I've done to the solder points.



By the way the keys worked yesterday for about 20 minutes like they should do, so I guess it is just a tiny contact which was added/destroyed

Uh I have no idea how it could have done that. Unfortunately I would need to unsolder all switches on the other side, to be able to remove the plate. And you've seen, what I've already done to this PCB using my unsolder skills. But only guessing won't help (I guess), so maybe I need to unsolder the ...

Maybe it sounds strange, but they do. Unfortunately I don't own a multimeter (or would know how to use it) to find some shorts.

The holes in the bottom row don't quite convince me.

I unsoldered the LEDs from the red marked switches today. Since I'm finished with this the keys in the green marked column behave weird: If I press one of them, the key sends out his whole row. So for example if I press the M key, it sends out 0nm,./ . dox.jpg I already flashed some old firmware, to...

It seems quite high to me. Or is this something which doesn't bother you while typing?

I'm by no means an expert in this field, but I tried a lot of FDM and SLA. And I printed a tiny keyboardcase in SLS. From my experience I would say FDM is unusable for keycaps ( it will work, but it will look horrible) and SLS would work, but it got a slightly rough surface (like some rough keycaps,...

I like your layout choices and the fact, that you share them. But two things came to my mind 1.The L and R buttons should be at the top or maybe better on the back of the controller, for a faster access. 2.The whole design seems huge to me, maybe you should rethink the spacing. I made both points as...

This one?

Sorry, I didn't meant to attack you and I have no problems in using company logos. I probably just misinterpreted you initial post.

Maybe I didn't understand, but if you referring to this keycap, to me it seems like the official logo of Sun Microsystems. So it seems to be their design.

Is my design meant to be ironic?

Is this whole thing still running? Last update seems quite dated. It is still running, just the communication isn't great/non existent. You have to send your order, a few days later you get your invoice through email. You transfer the money and then it will take something between some weeks and som...
