BORROWED FROM ESOOMENONA FOR STRUCTURE! NOT MY WIKI, YET! I discovered Mechanical keyboards on a whim. I read a HackaDay about some guy putting a USB hub inside an IBM Model M, and I knew that I must try the mod... After all the time I've been at GeekHack, I've still not attempted the mod, but instead been having fun with the electronics and engineering aspects of the site.

Project 01 - Rita darling (In Process)

This section is under construction. Check back every once in awhile to see how this progresses.

This is a keyboard I'm putting together for someone dear to me. It will be a Patriotic build. As of now, my plans are to find either a Poker or Pure, and modify it to have red, white, and blue LEDs.

Project 02 - KMAC LE (In Process)

This is where I shall keep you updated on how I move along in building my Titanium Winkey KMAC LE.

Currently, I'm unsure of what kind of switches I want to use, though I do know I want them to be tactile and clicky. I purchased some MX Blue switches, which are a possibility for this. I am thinking I might want to go Green or Milk, though I'm sure sourcing those won't be easy.

There is still a lot of work to be done to just prepare for this. I still need to get soldering equipment and such, as well as continue to get the parts needed together. This project will fall second in line to the above project, so it may take awhile to complete. Check back for progress.

Here is where I stand in my scrounging of parts:

  • KMAC LE titanium winkey kit
  • Cherry MX Blue switches (possible use)
  • Cherry PCB mount stabilizers (I have a spacebar stab coming which I'm hoping is a 6.25x one. Pictures indicate it is.)
