Re: Problems flashing an M110A converter (again)

It looks like avrdude hasn't even stared flashing to the pro micro. Are you shorting the GND and RST pins together just before flashing to put it into bootloader mode?

Re: Doubleshot or dye sublimated keycaps for ALPS

I know Tia Hao sells some ABS Alps double shots, I have a set and every cap uses Alps stabs except the spacebar which has mx mount stabs.

Re: Tell me about your experience with dome boards

While it is unmistakably a rubber dome, it has a distinctive thock, and tactility that would rival tactile Cherry or Alps switches. I wouldn't compare it with Topre, it's not quite as smooth as a Topre, but it makes up with tactility. One thing about dome keyboards is that go mushy with age. If you...

Issues setting up TMK converter to work with AT Numpad

While I have been able to get the numpad working using Soarer's converter I am having trouble doing the same thing using TMK. In the past I have been able to use TMK for other boards such as my AT101 but I can't seem to get it working for my standalone numpad. I am not very experienced in TMK so I d...

I bought a KBP v80 like a year ago but had to return it because of chattering issues. I don't know if the v60 has the same issues but just a word or warning that in the past their boards have had problems with key chatter.

This is the active converter I use which also works with my at101 as long as it is directly plugged into a USB port and not into a USB hub.

Have recently restored a Model F plate with decent success by soaking it in vinegar, sanding, then repainting.
