Title: Custom Ducky one 2 mini
Post by: BuildingKeys on Wed, 24 June 2020, 23:12:03
While I wait for other various keyboard stuff to come in, I took apart my Ducky one 2 mini to practice soldering and what not. I de-soldered the switches and lubed them up, I painted the plastic frame, and
put it all back together. I tried to spray paint a stencil in but it wasn't as clean as I was hoped for. Overall it took the up a Friday and a Saturday! It was fun and aliiittle (alot) tedious, but here's the outcome!

Looks well executed. How'd you treat the plastic to take the paint?

I sanded the frame, first with a 150 and then afterwards with a P400. In hindsight I think I’d skip out on the 150 and stick with a lighter sandpaper.
