I've never done a DIY keyboard before, but this seems like a fun project. I'd probably be down for one, especially if plates are offered as well. (I'm personally interested in the HYPERMINI/ANSIWIN layout)

More on page 6 and 7. Basically HHKB layout with the unused space on the bottom row filled out with extra keys and with a split space bar.

I still need a source for the scroll wheel!

The 'Silent Spinners' are way over-priced/hyped... The industrial mesh is the way to go, too bad I can't find them anywhere anymore.

I must pretend that when mouse wheels where a new thing I always thought of what I see when I follow your link ....
:lol:

The first time ever I used a scroll wheel was with the RollerMouse....
:shock:

It doesn't fit between the G and H!

Just off the top of my head, it might be neat to integrate a volume knob with one of these bad boys :)

IP68 <----- :oops:

The wheels in the other links look nicer.

What I would love to get is the original RollerMouse Free2 scroll wheel, or at least a smooth one.

I like the Logitech ones, but they won't be selling these as spare parts I presume.

Because there have been so many suggestions for the HyperMicro layout: how likely is it that the layout in the OP (with 1 and 1.5 keys only) is made available in the group buy?
I'm about to order the Retro DSA keys and would get a set for the Micro, too.

Will these layouts be supported?

I have a couple of them (complete mx-mice) and I am going to use it on something fun soon :)

Yes, anything which is like matrix layout is no problem PCB-wise.

Just requires a special mount plate which micht be a bit more expensive than a regular one.

In the Phantom group buy, we had a lot of special plates which where not much more expensive than the regular ones, so should be not too much of a problem.

Here is my HyperNano:
AdNW base alpha layers
Extra chars, navigation & numblock

To see the navigation layer in full unicode glory, copy the following text - urls with unicode do not seem to work well :D

Code: Select all

L2-L3: symbols / navigation+numblock::13$$
__::1$$
@ ⇞::1.5   € ⇤::1  [ ↑::1  ] ⇥::1  # ⇟::1  __::2  ! ß::1  < 7::1  > 8::1  = 9::1  & ä::1.5$$
\ ⇱::1.25  . ←::1  { ↓::1  } →::1  * ⇲::1  __::2.5  ? .::1  ( 4::1  ) 5::1  + 6::1  . ö::1.25$$
::1      $ esc::1  | ⇥::1  ~ ins::1  ` ⏎::1    L0::1   __::1  L4::1  ^ 0::1  % 1::1  " 2::1  ' 3::1   . ü::1$$

Yes. Just don't solder any switches in.

Hint: No keyboard in sight.

I don't get it.

When clicking on the link, no keyboard layout is visible. So I assume the easiest way to have a keyboard without any keys on it is just to obtain a PCB and leave the switches away.

150+100+150+600+150+100+100+150 should be possible.

I rather fancy 125+125+125+625+125+125+125+125 then.

You can also have 100+...+100 (15 times).
