Greetings from Portugal
« on: Tue, 22 December 2015, 11:04:47 »
Good evening everybody, curiosity brought me here, my name is Tiago(dont try to read it in english, it sounds so bad..), I'm a (future) electronics engineer, currently working and have been typing in my laptop for more than 4 years, like its keyboard(heresy I know), and with all this flashy keyboards and sooo much OSHW/OSS work I want to make a small DIY Keyboard, I know 0 about mechanical keyboards, well not 0, but very little and I hope I can learn and maybe help you guys and girls.

Best regards.

Welcome to Geekhack!

I suggest you start with the recommended reading links.

In particular Simple Questions, Simple Answers which has got lots of links at the start to parts, prices, hints etc., and the The Living Soldering Thread thread, which is full of soldering and construction tips.

Also browse through the area, where other members have posted their build logs.

It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

I have no particular model in mind, but I find the TKL's cute, they are small and portable-ish, could throw it into my backpack and carry it along with the laptop, with an integrated LiPo battery and BT would be nice.
Thanks for the links, have a bit to read :)

Thanks for the warm welcome.
And for the info, already been looking around some projects, interesting no doubt!
I will also check Deskthority,but can sign in into to many forums, will spend all my time reading and commenting.

One quick doubts, it the verification after the post for everybody or its just a spam/bots protection for low post count?

Best regards.

TKL is a great form factor - all the keys you need, and none you don't!  But if you find yourself really missing a numpad, you can always get a separate one.
