I'm glad to finally have this board functional. Sometime in the future I'll play around with replacing the speaker with a diode and a vibration motor. Super cool idea! Do you know of any keyboards that do that, or projects to do that? It would also be cool to be able to adjust the vibration with th...

Thank you Salty! I asked because I'm still contemplating some way to put SA Jukebox on this board. Cherry MX stems probably have a smaller diameter than the Commodore keys, so I'm thinking I'll have to do more than grind out the center. But learning how people overcame specific issues can prove use...

I used a screwdriver that I got to adjust my mouse, the Torq X10. It's a hex-star shaped thing. http://benchmarkreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/evga_torq_x10_height_adjust.jpg The screwdriver was the perfect size for it- I could stick it into the keycaps so that the nooks in the screwdriver m...

Very nice, but how in the heck did you get that Return key to fit up there? The return key has three mounts, and the outer two are perfectly spaced so they can fit on adjacent posts. Unfortunately, the shorter modifier keys- Shift, Control, Restore, and Function- all have two mounts, one on the lef...

So I wanted to find some keycap replacements for my pingmaster. It's a bit hard to find keyboards with these same switches. Ultimately, I got two keyboards- a Ti-99/4A and a Commodore 64. The C64 doesn't use these switches, but I was able to get the caps to fit well enough with only a minor amount o...

That's great news! Those two keys may be getting switched but at least the keyboard is 100% usable now. Thanks a lot for reporting the issue.

Do you have the wrong make file for a Pingmaster layout? Try "Makefile.unimap.alps.rev1" instead of "Makefile.rev1". That would explain the error you got- "keymap_fn_to_action" finds the action to send based on the keyboard signal, if it's looking regular 4704 keys but you've got a Pingmaster config...

As far as the issues that I'm having with my board, I feel like the culprit is the customized .hex generated by the TMK website, but I can't figure out why. I agree. It's happening to both of us, and it'd be a weird coincidence that both our keyboards or teensys have the same fault and only for tha...

Regarding the relegendable labels, I found a .doc template, cleaned it up, tweaked and customized, and printed it. Then I cut strips long-ways using a rotary trimmer board and short-ways using a pair of scissors. It isn't terribly hard at all. And congratulation on your own Ping! And don't forget t...

First off thanks to everyone for this great knowledge dump on making a Pingmaster converter. I got one this week and I'll be making the converter tonight with my dad. I'm not sure of the best way to provide labels for all the relegendables, I feel like if I make them myself they'll be inconsistent. ...
