Making Stuff
One of the primary missions of GeekHack is to push the envelope on small-scale manufacturing. While we tend to focus on keyboards and keycaps, there are some other projects eiher worked on or built up by our members.
For general resources, we maintain the following thread: http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=33298.0
