Im about half way through the case mod.
Holy ****. How'd you get the membrane to work? Just fold it? Build log coming soon? I have so many questions!
Folding and lotsa tape.
I taped off all the unused capacitive connections, and actually taped the sheets together on the unused sections at the seams.
My thinking was that the pressure from folding over would force the sheets to separate too much making those outer edge keys not work so well.
Even so I got issues where the 1qaz column was multi firing, so I had to tweak the bolts here and there to get it to work.
I got sort of mad-scientisty on this mod and just busted the whole thing out in a quick time without taking pics.
I can probably reverse mod and take some pics this week.
This is in no way shape or form a clean mod.#theressomeducttape
It is down and dirty for the most part, and the case mod was a bit of a failure.
But hey, the board works, and is fully programmable.
I wont be transporting the board around, so im content with its durability/stability.
