More here. Bonus points to the first person to spot the keycaps I had to switch after taking the pic.
- Leftover no-stabilizers PCB from old project
- Pi Pico running ZMK
- Outemu half-height blue (odd but kinda nice "ball catch" click mechanism)
- VSA keycaps (except for the 1.75u SP DSA on Enter... thank you, otherwise ill-advised purchase of a keycap Grab Bag)
- DIY laser cut plate
- DIY 3D printed case
- As always with my builds, a minimum of 17% jank is included for free.
A family member of mine does mechanical keyboards— I don’t understand how ya’ll are able to memorize new layouts so quickly regardless of key caps! Someone should do some research on you guys.
I'm in the baby-pool over here. Almost everything I do is fairly close to standard, and I prefer mnemonics for the ones that don't match their keycaps' legends. This set didn't have a single-key enter or numpad "+," but an arrow pointed in the same direction as Enter keys helps, and "PN" can be "plus number" in my brain. Even with "SYS," I was very happy to get those "s" sounds for my spaces. I only have one extra layer, and again I went with mnemonics for the most part over locations. Fn+I is insert and Fn+P is Print Screen, although that did necessitate Fn+B as Pause/Break, LOL, but who actually uses Pause/Break?
