I just made one of my Minitouches even better! I'm still cleaning my spare Alps, sort of, but I didn't want to wait.
Todo: 1) move the Fn key out of the way and put a remappable key there instead; 2) change the LEDs
LEDs changed to red. I found some red LEDs from a ten year old project I didn't finished again haha.
Traces cut and keys rewired. I tried to just desolder the keys and isolate them so I wouldn't have to cut the traces, but it was too hard without heat shrinks. I swapped Fn and Insert.

Time to put it back together: It's too much crap in there! Foiled again.

Next step: rewire and make sure it's really flat

Is's completed! Red leds and changed Fn with Insert. Now I just have to actually use the key for something lol. And I'd like to get rid of that large enter button too. Del/backspace is too high up!

I ran two wires between the plate and pcb; call me Mr. Smart. Assembled! My keyboard has the evil!

Nice mod. I like the red leds, but they clash with those fugly green key caps! Would like to see you get rid of that big Enter key.

Agree with the green key caps.

Would be hard to change the enter; I'll have to archive that into "if I'm bored of life" lol

Ah yes, the archive of which ripster is feeding so plentifully

Someone has to do it!

Fixed my green: In this photo you can also see my "vintage" Creative speakers.
