Hey 7bit, Thanks for the keycaps, I got mine really early! they look great, will try to get a picture up at some point - though i don't usually have a decent camera with me at work. I showed a friend your keyboard, and he was interested, in particular in the side function/numpad boards, can you tell...

Daewoo IBM model M clones?
Just found some Daewoo DTC-4000 UK keyboards and wondered what the deal was? I realize that after the popularity of the model M there were a lot of clones... but these seem like complete replicas, Same caps, same stem (same buckling spring) - if it wernt for the Daewoo logo it would be identical in ...

Nope :( I have a board now, I produced code as a proof of theory to drive an n-key rollover keyboard matrix, its sitting on my desk right now - its not quite the same project - but related. I'm not sure which direction I want to take the idea - an entire keyboard, or just an adapter? It's a little o...

I think that sounds perfect (though the step would have been nice). the other modifiers for the iso: Left shift, Ctrl, Super, Alt, Meta == 1.25 Units Right Shift == 3.5 Units Are these OK on the SPH style? I'm going add the RETRO/TKLUK and a few other bits and peices to my order - I take it the J sh...

I like the spherical style the most, but there is one thing that I don't like: the enter and shift keys are less wide than in all the other sets, as if they do not fit. why is that? for retro enter and shift look good/aligned: The 2.25 units keys do only exist with rough texture and there is no 2.7...

Disable 'Enhance pointer precision' (mouse settings windows)
The single greatest way to enhance your pointer precision! Seriously, maybe its because I grew up with without my mouse moving differently based on acceleration. But I remembered how great the mouse was after disabling this 'feature'. I've now added this to my 'things to do while setting up windows'...

PCB/Plate Design
Hi there, Ok so I got the electronics and the programming down, I can design the circuit for the Matrix, and write the code for a controller without issue (I've got a small scale breadboarded proof of concept at home) Now my main concern is the Design and mounting of the switches. This sort of work ...

What's the best e-reader for someone who cares mostly about PDF and text documents? I tried the Kindle but it rather sucked for that. A while back I went for the Sony PRS650, partially based on its better than kindle PDF support. If you view a pdf on the Sony at size 'small' it'll render the pdf as...

Well It seems I don't like linear switches. I'm defiantly very tactile and clicky - I guess that's just what I'm brought up on. But here is a summary of what I thought about each: Linear Cherry Black - Very Heavy, not comfortable at all. Will cause fatigue Cherry Red - Much better than Black -light ...

Presuming the test PCBs go well - roughly what do you think would be the final deadline for taking an order? Originally I wasn't going to get in on this, but the more I'm playing around with my own controller, the more I want to build my own matrix, getting in on this would be a good logical step be...

Ahh morning peoples - I got the Switch Try Bag last night! I was home so late that I didn't really get much of a play with them. I'll have a more in depth look when I'm home from work tonight. One thing I noticed was that one of the cherry key caps has some damage - but its no big deal for testing. ...

Bows down Wow! that's basicly what I want to achieve, How have you your own firmware for your keyboard? I have two plans. Either a. replace entire controller board, or b. create an adapter in the middle (ps/2 to usb maybe). personally I'm leaning towards doing a. as it could be more interesting and ...

Well could use Vim-A and Vim-E as Home and End. thus removing the need for the ^ and $ keybinding from the number row - freeing it up to move the F keys onto there as the secondary function. Find a place for Print Screen and the rest and we've removed another entire row - though I don't like using s...
