I think a better way of looking at it is, "How many keyboards do I not have?".

When you think about it like that, our collections are extremely modest.

Howdy All, I received my new production Model F77 keyboard yesterday and assembled it last night. I've run into a few issues, which I'm not really sure how to resolve. I read through the technical guide thoroughly, but wasn't able to answer my questions. I'm using the keyboard plugged into a Macboo...

While searching for a new ergonomic keyboard I discovered MX switch keyboards (unfortunately none was a split layout) and decided to give a try. There are numerous (!) split keyboards with MX switches. Check out the Ultimate Hacking Keyboard, Mistel Barocco, ErgoDox, just to name a few. Here's an e...

Hi, could I get an invite to the QMK beta please?

Hi azor_738, send a private message to pandrew. Increases the chance he sees your message.

Shipping update - all of the "all in stock" single digit and custom/low serial 2016 orders that can ship out, have shipped out, including one ordered by Lazy Game Reviews! Next up is 2017. As always please do email me if your address has changed. We are about 1-2 weeks away from the arrival of the ...

Did you check that none of the solder contacts had pierced the tape? I can't tell for sure from the photo. I put an extra layer of tape on mine, just in case. I have not checked that. Does it cause an issue if they do? Also what kind of tape is it? Yes. You can just put a piece of somewhat sturdy t...

ahhhh...I was so hoping it would be something simpler like adjusting the spring or me just not putting keys on right. I have not soldered things in 20ish years and don't have the equipment :( (edit) Did pop the back off so I could put the big chonk feet on and snapped a pic of the controller while ...

Having used the keyboard for a couple of days, I have to say that it is pretty magnificent. Definitely the best clicky keyboard I have used. All of your hard work is definitely appreciated, Ellipse - and pandrew, darkcruix and whoever else contributed to make it this good. https://i.imgur.com/oLS0lY...

with the "Keypress Monitor" of the QMK utility, I can see that pressing a key produces lots of extraneous keypresses. E.g. pressing M ends up activating most of the bottom row as well. That's not necessarily a problem. Keypress Monitor doesn't send the keypresses through the debounce algorithm, so ...

I am beginning to suspect that the capacitive sensing threshold is just generally too low. Keys register somewhat randomly all over the place, when other keys are pressed, it isn't really limited to one row. Edit: seems to work flawlessly right now, after disconnecting some other keyboards from the ...

Thanks, guys! I have the "traditional" F77. I tried with the case off - same problem. Put some extra tape on the solder contacts to no avail. However, I think I made some progress: with the "Keypress Monitor" of the QMK utility, I can see that pressing a key produces lots of extraneous keypresses. E...

After un-plugging and re-plugging the keyboard a couple of times, none of the keys register. I'm a bit at a loss.

The device still does show up correctly in the system log (dmesg) when plugged in.

Just received my New Model F (F77), and I have to say it is gorgeous and the keyfeel is incredibly crisp. However, I have a problem with a few keys not registering (M, ,(comma), down arrow, both ctrls, space, ...), even though the keys seem correctly seated and buckle just fine. The keyboard has the...

Nice - good to have these things documented for posterity.

Mind-bendingly impressive stuff! 10/10 keyboard insanity for sure.

HUGE thanks - you were absolutely right - still from the template and somehow it slipped through :) Should be corrected now. No problem! By the way, another little thing: If I go to http://bucklingspring.com (without the www.), I get an SSL certificate warning: https://i.imgur.com/PtvNXsk.png If I ...

By the way, darkcruix, are you aware that the "Home" link in the menu on bucklingspring.com points to a rather odd URL? (sktperfectdemo . com / demos / laptoprepair )

A remnant of the site template, I assume?

Not to contaminate the thread, but I want to say that the work you're doing here is highly appreciated.

Did you get it to work?

I haven't received mine yet, but I can look into it when I do.

Having owned many different ThinkPads, and tried this keyboard, I've found that I absolutely prefer the TEX Shinobi.

Maybe what we need is the combination of a light weight frame and array of buttons.

Maybe even some sort of plate with keys. I'm not sure what to call such a contraption. A keyplate? Buttonboard??

I think tray mounting accomplishes this Acomplishes what? An even stiffness, surely. Whether you agree with that or not is a different matter :-) https://thomasbaart.nl/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/20190407_KeyboardMountingStylesCheatSheet.png (Source: https://thomasbaart.nl/2019/04/07/cheat-sheet-cu...
