Motherfucker! I fucking missed it and I've been looking forward to this for the last couple of years
Compgeke told me they wouldn't be hosting one so I didn't think to check if anyone else would be doing it. Hopefully I catch it next year.

P.S. Thank you kmnov2017 for carrying the torch!

Checked that - Model F is too far away in terms of layout for my needs, but thanks for proposal. If anyone could reach Palatino by any means, I'd be grateful - boards send e-mail seems not to be functional anymore. He disappears every couple of months for a couple of months with no other way to con...

I'd like to get it if you are still it giving it away.

Unfortunately, I can't help, but I wanted to let you (Mu) know that the latest version of VIA can be used online. https://usevia.app
Sorry, if someone has already mentioned this. I only read the first page.

If you are not opposed to opening the keyboard, taking pictures and measurements, I'd love to try and design a replacement case for it.

Those look absolutely awesome!

Before I forget again: There are conductive markers you can use to "draw" traces back on the PCB. Not sure about rubbing off, but this is possibly your best bet given the height constraints. Here's an example of such a marker from iFixit's US store: https://www.ifixit.com/products/circuitwriter-pen...

Rest in Peace! Condolences to the family!

Loving the project so far!

In your case the pain is almost definitely a sign of an uncomfortable mouse, considering that you mentioned that bigger mice make your hand sit at a weird angle. However, in my experience, pain with input peripherals can also be temporary and a sign of bad habits when you start doing things properly...

Do you happen to have any progress on the project?

Those look absolutely gorgeous!

... Those look fucking awesome! Or at least, the idea of it is always there. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/lekashman/keystone-the-future-of-mechanical-keyboards/posts/3446400 Oh now there’s a blast from the past. Did those ever ship? Can we buy them now? A quick read of the kickstarter link ...

Europe: Euros.

Thanks, Mu!
I assumed so, but thought I'd ask.

Someone would probably snach it before I have the money for it, but nevertheless - 230 in what currency?

I am sure I've signed up on the Google Form, but is there any way to check? Will filling it out again erase the old answers and throw me back in the line? What are the plans for making smaller version of the beamspring? In the hhkb or similar sized form factor? edit: just saw the ergodox style case...

Damn! Those keycaps have the quality of factory produced one! Can't wait to learn from you how to do that.

Scratch your mods' bellies today and give them cookies.

On Wikimedia (the wiki software, and perhaps on other wiki software as well) the name of User pages (it may apply to other pages as well, but I can't confirm that) only the first letter can be capital. I have no idea if that's a setting that can be changed in the administration or if it requires cha...

They work for me as well.

What does everyone think about an IBM Model M style case with beam spring switches? Is that preferable to the classic beam spring case design? Prefer either a modern style case or model M to a big hulking “classic” beamspring style case How about something like a 7 column by 5 row ortho? I.e.

What does everyone think about an IBM Model M style case with beam spring switches? Is that preferable to the classic beam spring case design? Honestly, I'd be happy with either, but I think I do prefer classic Beamspring case design. If the design isn't trying to match an existing Beamspring or Bu...

Here are the source files for the designed case.
Shared with Ellipse's permission.

It has been archived. The extracted file is a FreeCAD project file.

I'd like a 122-key layout as well, but honestly, I'd buy whatever layout is available as long as I have the money for it when boards start shipping, as I'd like to buy at least one board, then I'll just buy switches to make my own board(s)

Here's the case I designed during the stream: https://i.imgur.com/481bwCJ.png In my opinion, as it is, it doesn't look good, but this is just an example after all. It can be tweaked and changed to be more appealing. I've designed just the left side, but I believe the model can easily be flipped to a...

Desculpe se isso é ruim, estou usando o Google Tradutor.
A menos que esse layout exija mais teclas do que o teclado, acho que você deve ficar bem apenas obtendo um novo conjunto de teclas e alterando o layout no sistema operacional.

I'll be designing some cases and stream while doing it. Ellipse asked me to post about the stream on here when I'm about to start, so here it is: In a couple of minutes, I'll be streaming while designing some cases (not all today) for the Beamspring reproduction project. You can watch the stream her...

Keep in mind that Alps clones and simplified Alps usually have one of the legs a piece of thinner metal than the other (in some cases it is bent in a v shape). Thank you! While I am mostly targeting complicated Alps and Matias switches, I am keeping in-mind simplified Alps and Alps clones, as well ...

Hmm, if there usually won't be variation between the top and bottom of the pin, then 0.2 and 0.4/0.5 is too big of a variation, perhaps switches would have to be cleaned before used with the sockets. As for the width vs thickness - what you just measured seems to be the thickness. In this case, whe...
