New home made Keyboard Roof

[remlap]

I absolutely suck at photography

[Okeg]

nice, what is it made of?
Any progress pics?

[remlap]

No progress pictures sadly, its made out of acrylic.

I am going to order a decal of some kind soon so I could get some better photos after its applied.

What keyboard is this? i like the layout.(found it in your profile..)
Did you thermoform the acrylic?

[remlap]

No, I followed these instructions, it came out really well

I like the layout too, which is why I opted for it

[Jmneuv]

Yes, that's what i meant, probably used the wrong term..
Sorry to go a bit ot, but now you got me hooked on that quickfire tk. Where'd you buy it? Availability of the mx brown one in germany seems to be zero, but a uk layout could do aswell i guess.

I got it from Scan

Ah man, sobering up as i learn about the pitfalls of the numpad.
According to comments, the surrounding keys including Enter are inactive in "navcluster mode" .. those extra keys would have been the selling point for me.

I am really at a loss as to why the Enter key is inactive while its in arrow pad mode, it's my only problem with it.

It must be made in taiwan.. great hardware product / starved one man software department.

It's still worth the price to be honest, I am happy to use the regular Enter key.
