- Aluminum Skin (Top/Bottom): $60
- Shipping : 25$
Total: $230
Minus $90 if you don't need a steel plate nor alu top: $140

That is almost a steal. Any chance of ordering additional PCBs?
I have an 1800 case that was for another project that never went through.

This is by far the best price I've seen for a custom Korean keyboard, and I highly recommend not missing out on this.

Sorry for Korean thread. I will updates a guide in English soon.
And yes back lighting LEDs installed as well. All need to do is solder the SWITCH and switch LEDs in case you want.

This PCB is slightly different with original 1800 layout. The 1st row is stick to 2nd row. :o. You can buy 1800 compatible PCB on kbdhub.com.

If I bought a 1800 PCB and Plate on KBDHub will this case work then or would I need to order a whole new pcb/plate?
Look at the space between F row and number row. This GB has compact 1800 layout in that there is no space between F and number row while there is in normal 1800 layout. So 1800 PCB and plate won't work with this case.

Damnit I only got that from them because it was said they would have this case for sale with it and now it seems the case won't even work with it :/ guess I'll have a 1800 pcb/plate for sale once I get them which hopefully can happen before this is over

How thick will the alu top/bottom layers be? will there be silver screws to match the top?
It is 2mm Alu on top of 3mm Acrylic transparent. and yes the screw will be the same color with each top(translucent for translucent, black for black, silver for silver)

Hi Leeku. I would really want to know when this would ship out. ;)
I assume the basic kit will go out sooner than the aluminum skin? But still, when?
Technically? Possible. For GB cost, however, I should gather 50 set at least. You can get the boards by this year but it will be sooner hopefully.
Post by: leeku on Mon, 09 November 2015, 03:02:10
A quick question, and forgive me if it comes off as noobish. Regarding the plate, will the acrylic plates allow for the switches to be customized without doing any additional soldering, or will that only be possible with the steel plate? Also will the steel plate be visible in a top/bottom translucent acrylic setup?
As you can see on the form, there are 4 types of acrylic plate and 1 universal(all combos of layout is possible) steel plate. Sorry I don't get "allow for the switches to be customized without doing any additional soldering" But you can solder switches as you want as long as the plate allows. The steel plate is might be semitransparently(?) visible through the translucent TOP :)
Post by: leeku on Mon, 09 November 2015, 03:03:57
Any more colour options for the top acrylic piece?Sorry but no options.
When is the actual dead line?
30th or 21st?
21th.
Post by: leeku on Mon, 09 November 2015, 03:08:27
Do I have to solder on the RGB case led?
No, you don't have to. RGB will be soldered. All you need to solder is switches & switch side LEDs(only if you want to)

Hi Leeku. How about Assembly Service in google form, can you explain more?
It 's like basic assembly with gatron black(60g linear) switch. I can tell the the gatron feels good enough only with the factory lube.I will tune the stabilzer of course. So, you will receive a keyboard without LED(on the switch) and cpas. The bottom RGB will be glow and you can use immediatly. It cost 80$ totall including all the matirials.
If you need any other special option like lube or LED jobs on the switch please comment on the form. I will send proper invoice if I can do that.
Post by: leeku on Mon, 09 November 2015, 10:44:40

Tops are easily switchable. Just un screw and change.

Had to get one of each top and bottom so I can obsessively swap them around to compare which looks coolest.
Does this come with black screws or silver screws? I can see both in the pictures.
Does it vary by which top you buy? What if you are insane and buy them all?
EDIT: OK, I somehow missed a post on the previous page that said the screws match the top you get, so I'm assuming if you get all the tops, you get a set of screws for each.
Also, if I forgot to add stabs to me order, can I still do so? I've not been billed yet, but I didn't want to confuse things by submitting the order again.
Thanks for the great buy!

I don't have enough LEDs and stabilizers. I can buy some stabs then send you guys just for your convinience. But LEDs are too bothering to sort each colors. Sorry about that.

This looks awesome and the price is right, but I'm struggling to get my head round a usable layout while compressing the 9 nav keys into 5.
Is the firmware compatible with spaceFN? Putting PgUp/Down and Home/End on the arrows could make it perfect. That or I could use an ANSI enter and a right shift to make an ISO+Split, but the profile and legends wouldn't be perfect...
You can mod(remap) the key layout whatever you want.
Currently, I use the 1.25x key in the bottom middle as a FN then map "f v" for home end "g b" for pageup and down. It's extremely comfortable but yes the three keys instead of space bar might look odd

Its just for work. I used blacks for a year and now type on browns. I find MX blacks a bit heavy. Honestly the MX blacks in my Steel Series feel more like 80g and my fingers get tired.
I have read that the 60g stock Gateron switchers are a lot lighter than MX so I'm OK with that. Also could I pay extra to get the switches lubed and have in-switch LEDs? does the board even support in-switch leds?
So for all the questions. ;D

And say this is my order I would pay, Total 60 + 10 + 30 + 10 + 10 + 25 = 145 USD correct? And are there options to include the stabilizers and indicator led separately without assembly?
1. PCB (60)
2. TOP - b. black Acrylic (10)
3. MIDDLE (30)
4. BOTTOM - a. translucent Acrylic (10)
5. b. Acrylic (ANSI+6.25/7x) : 10
Shipping 25
I believe he is charging $10 for stabilizers because he isn't like completely stocked on them, indicator leds can be left out, do you mean he includes the leds without assembling them?
I don't have enough LEDs and stabilizers. I can buy some stabs then send you guys just for your convinience. But LEDs are too bothering to sort each colors. Sorry about that.
For the through hole and PCB, it follows cherry recommendation. 1.6mm thickness and 4mm diameter. Thanks
okay thanks, where on the form do we indicate that we want a set of stabs?
Just command on "(Optional) Assembly Service 80"

The way I see it is that, when typing normally, the thumbs are going to type on the edges of the space bar. Since you're doing that already, why not remove the space that's not being touched so frequently, and in its stead place a key you can use when needed?That split spacebar is so interesting.

Typical use is space on the thumb you normally space with, Backspace on the other large space and then a fn (ala poker fns, to use layered keys) on the middle, small key. Pretty practical, with the cheap gateron blank keysets now its more feasible to put unlegended keys there than previously.

I've been trying to determine the best spot to put the Delete key, as I'm a programmer who makes a LOT of mistakes, and that's looking like the leading candidate so far.
Not too far from the standard location.
I could not be more psyched about this board.
I could try, but I would fail.

Yep, LZ CP and Compact SQ are the same layout. :)
I would be getting a Compact SQ for sure if I didn't already have a CP. That said, I might still pick up a Compact SQ as a gift for someone.
This is one of the best layouts out there, and at this price point, it's really a no-brainer to me.

@Karura: do the Caps Lock and Scroll Lock led in the small bar between the alphas and the numpad work for you on de CP? For me only the Num Lock is functioning and the Caps Lock is working on the Caps Lock key it self but not on the dedicated led on the bar. Have been trying to work with the Jigon software but to no avail.
it should work! Maybe the resistor or LED is not soldered correctly.
Just pm me the picture of led soldered side. Or you can send your pcb/plate to me I can fix it and ship with you cpsq order.
Post by: leeku on Tue, 10 November 2015, 18:09:53
Oh, the through hole for switch leg is 1.5mm
There is 2.4mm thick space between pcb and bottom.

If i get in-switch LEDs can i turn them off or have the ability to dim them? Same question for the RGB LEDs, and will i be able to change them to a colour of my choosing or will they change by themselves?
If i get the assemble service will the keys me mapped or will i have to do that in the Jigon software?
Thanks. This is my first Custom, so I have questions. Don't hate me =(
Post by: leeku on Tue, 10 November 2015, 20:29:48
You can see which is able and not able.
1. There are two blocks of inswitch LED(WASD&Arrow and others) each block can set by different effect(dimming, on, off, blinking, etc..)
2. RGB color is changeable of course.
Currently this tool is on http://kbdlab.co.kr/index.php?mid=board_sw&document_srl=2702787

Thanks, I played with the software, seems to make sense. I'll have to figure out the lighting options but that will come over time. I'll mess up the key maping in the beginning but ill figure it out by trial and error (mainly the top and bottom rows). I'm sure everyone has some errors from time to time....maybe?

yeah I think that it will come flashed with the default layout..but leeku did say he was going to release a guide in English because looking at the mapping tool i'm a little confused as well
Which means I'm in. Now i have to figure out what options I want. maybe Alu top and "feet" with acrylic mid and bottom.
Post by: Dansor on Wed, 11 November 2015, 09:58:15
If I'm not going to use that layout, is there anything preventing me from manually wiring up a couple low profile buttons, mounting them somewhere on the case (probably the front), and using them as function or layer shift buttons?
I don't think that should pose much problem, as the mapping software should handle it.
Edit: A better question - Do the two different switch locations for the spacebar trigger different scancodes/button presses, or do they both trigger the same spacebar press. It's hard to see in the pics exactly how the traces are run. If I'm using a standard winkey layout, that would give me spots to wire up two extra buttons. I plan on mounting two 1u buttons where the backspace key is, and two where the numpad+ is, but it appears the numpad enter may also provide an extra location. Also, using an ANSI layout, the extra button location to support as ASCII layout may provide the same opportunity.
Does anyone have any insight on this issue in regards to this board?
I suppose what I am really asking is, ignoring the space required for various switches and keys, how many imaginary, zero-volume discrete switches could this PCB really support? :)
THANKS!!!!

I don't have many switches on hand. But you can comment your request like "want brown lubed but use linear gatron if you don't have" I will send you a proper invoice in my capacity.

Yes, you can. Some keys work independantly and others are not.
The key next to left shift is another switch. And the two split space(shift caps) use two other switches.
However, left ctrl and alt share with 1.5x and 1.25
Which means you can wire from the next key from left shift or two split space bar but you can not wire from 1.25x ctrl point although you use 1.5x ctrl.
So, this board supports a split spacebar layout.

After reading about how smooth the Gateron 60g Stock were I figured I would give them a try. If I REALLY don't like them then I'll have someone from my local area change the switches for me. I have Stock MX Blacks on a keyboard at home and cant use it. the MX blacks feel more like 80g then anything. My figures would get so tired. Some times when I rest my fingers on my browns I end up pressing the keys. Right now I'm tying on a Membrane keyboard, at work, so it has to change.

Ordered...Went all out. First Custom I don't want to say I wish I got.....Same with me. I don't like blacks either since they are too heavy, but I get accidental presses with the lighter switches... It's not that bad tho; I like browns despite this whether it becherry or gateron . I just don't like clicky.

I have a a few questions mainly concerning the flex in the acrylic casing and how the steel plate and or aluminum skin affects this. If the flex was not terrible I would be interested in giving a full acrylic option a go. In not a huge fan of steel plates on cherry boards but if it was enough to firm up the board I would give it a whirl and my last ditch option would be the aluminum skins but again I'm not terribly keen on the polished look !!!

Do you mean the "flex" as the banding problem in Acrylic case? or a tension of plat?
This case is not very flexible despite acrylic case. It is firm enough only with full acrylic option.:)

Do I have to solder on the RGB case led?
No, you don't have to. RGB will be soldered. All you need to solder is switches & switch side LEDs(only if you want to)
I'm down for this but I'm a little confused by the RGB bottom LEDs. Are those the "Indicator LEDs" on the order form? So in the Assembly box I would write: "Need stabilizers and bottom LEDs installed." correct? I'll be soldering my own switches in.

Yes you can write stabilizer but don't need to write Bottom LEDs its already installed from the factory. It means, switchs and 3 indicators are only needed to be soldered by yourself.
Oh awesome! That makes it easier. But that leads to another question.. What are the indicator LEDs? Are they the three right where the USB connects? What exactly do they indicate?

what type of led do we need to buy for the indicator lights?

1) come with 7u and 6.25u space bar options?
2) come with enough to cover the split space bar option?
I'm thinking of getting the universal plate as I can't deiced on which layout to go with...

Sorry for more stabilizer questions :) If I buy a full set of stabilizers, do they:
1) come with 7u and 6.25u space bar options?
2) come with enough to cover the split space bar option?
I'm thinking of getting the universal plate as I can't deiced on which layout to go with...
I have not thought about that.
I would ship the any possible combinations
If you order 1set of board with two plates( 1x split and 1x 6.25/7x), I will send you amount that you can build any one of that.
so 1set for 6.25/7x ansi + extras for splitted space bar.

Would it be possible to get the switches and stabs from the assembly option without assembly?
Yes possible just commen that on the text box of ASSEMBLY.
I will send invoice including 40USD instead of 80USD.
Thanks

Are you making these as you go leeku? Or are you going to do them in batch? Will you send them out as you go? I'm just wondering about when roughly I can expect it. Appreciate the GB!
I'm not sure what is you want to know but this will be produced by 12, Dec and will be shipped in this year :) Like X-mas present hopefully :)

Woops, I see it is answered on the first page. Stabalizers are an extra $10.

And I'm sorry but I have to adjust the price(40->45USD) of it from now because the Acrylic part will be included which I didn't take the price. it does not cost to whom already ordered it of course.

Since there is case backlighting will there be holes in the back of the bottom of the alu plate similar to this? or just solid?Show Image(http://kbdlab.co.kr/files/attach/images/340/312/208/003/321d33e9228b3c5e74d1dff34035d71c.JPG)
He said couple post up that they're the same just that this GB is aluminum, so I think they do have the holes on the bottom for backlighting and the feet.
I'm curious what the aluminum bottom looks like with an acrylic top though, or if i should just get the aluminum top and bottom.
Post by: leeku on Tue, 17 November 2015, 18:06:56
However I would say translucent bottom and the feet is the best for LEDs.
Post by: leeku on Tue, 17 November 2015, 18:11:57
you can do that with Acrylic plate. You need to break up the thin part for 2x stabilizer. You would know easily once you got it.
Hantran,
It's just a transparent acrylic bar. It looks plain. Haha
Post by: ccc24 on Tue, 17 November 2015, 18:20:54
The black acrylic BLACK and Alu has holes like above.
However I would say translucent bottom and the feet is the best for LEDs.
Since the aluminium and black bottom have holes to the LEDs that directly light the feet, will the feet be as bright with the translucent bottom?

I think so, cause the translucent bottom would have the same hole on the side. I mean just for the duck-feet.:)

I don't know what to choose... Thinking of alu top + acrylic plate + feet, or just take the basic kit for budget...
Leeku, the plate is clear acrylic? Or is it actually polycarbonate plate?
The acrylic plate is literally acrylic 5mm thick plate.
I would say.... Black acrylic or Alu top and translucent bottom... hmmm it's hard for me either sorry.
Feet is do look fancy. You would like any combination of those. good luck :)

This board is almost a full keyboard crammed into the space of a 75%.
In terms of keys per area, compact 1800 may be one of the densest keyboard around. Density is good.
Get the Compact SQ. It's your density... I mean, your destiny...

Any photos of what of what I'm envisioning an "Oreo" type configuration. Black acrylic on top and bottom with the translucent acrylic in the middle?That would probably be pretty neat, you would have a line all around that glows while the rest is pretty subdued.
I really wonder if I should have ordered every case variation just in case.

I wonder how the bottom looks. Does it come with layered acrylic feet like those B series acrylic case?
This is a picture of mine but it was a prototype the spacing has been changed
I know you mentioned this is a prototype, but will the "feet" be the same as pictured? I did not get the aluminum feet.
Very excited for this!

Ok thanks! That was the hardest choice for me considering the feet look so good but ultimately decided that all acrylic would look cleaner than acrylic + aluminum feet.

If anyone got the black top and bottom, steel plate and aluminum feet decides they don't want it I'd be interested. I never got a PayPal invoice, guess I was a few hours too late. Tried sending a PM got no response. Or maybe I should just keep my money.
He was extremely busy yesterday (Monday) he said he will get to everyone remaining on the list in an hour or so

Stepped all the way! :cool:
(Even if Troubled Minds may not come with it. :'()
From the SP sets I've had, all stepped Caps Lock are off-center. I'm pretty sure that, unless otherwise stated, all stepped Caps Lock caps are off-center.

This is correct, another thing I'll add on one thing you don't notice is you'll need a 1u "0" key for the numpad which isn't often standard.

If you run ISO I think it will be possible.
Not possible with an ANSI layout, as you would need two full size (2.25u) left shifts - unless you buy two kits or find someone who can sell you the key :D

I was hoping for blank keys.
Wonder If I can find something the proper size and the same (or similar) color from somewhere else?

Ah sorry, I totally misunderstood the 'colored' part. If I was to do a split space bar build I would go with two sets of the blank Gateron PBT. I don't know of any set with legends that you can also get matching blank shift keys - but that would look amazing!

If only there's a TKL version of this!
That makes no sense...
1800 is a specific layout, same as TKL. This keyboard would look extremely odd with the numpad just missing and the arrow cluster sticking out.
I should've clarified...I just want a TKL that looks like that (the plate and case and such...) since I've always wanted a LZ or Duck. I didn't mean to say that I want this one to look like a tkl because yeah that makes no sense lol.

That image really puts the board into perspective. It makes me even happier with my choice to get one of these but goes to show how different some of the keys are compared to a normal layout and just how hard some of the keys will be to get as well.

Say I wanted to lube and sticker my switches after everything is assembled. is this possible or do i need to disassemble the board?
Desoldering required

I'm fairly certain these are dyesubbed Gaterons, like the kind that sethk ran an IC for and the kind available on Taobao (in olivette, red alert, purple, and black-on-black colors).

No.. sorry, it was a plan in case of PCBs came earlier than case. but the PCB is a bottle neck now. Assembled will take one week more.

During the holiday season, it's hard to have a good estimate on shipping. But EMS is quite fast (not sure what other shipping options there were). Korea to VN is 3-5 days or 1 week or so I think

Hi guys,
I was busy last weekend sorting the screws and counter sinking the TOP/BOTTOM. Yes I digged thousand of hole. ;)
Tomorrow I would get all the stuff on hand and ship all by Thursday.
I was hopping this would be a X-MAS present for you but sorry about one week delay.
Now I am hopping this would be a NEW YEAR celebration. :)
Thank you for waiting.
Hey guys,
I am very sorry about saying that I could not ship today(12/24), it's X-mas season. :(
I WILL ship them all on next Monday(12/28).

Can anyone confirm the board in the pic in the OP has 98 switches? I have a bag of 100 Zealios so if I've counted that right my ISO build will need every one of them. If I can't count after a handful of beers I might be a couple short, and that would just be annoying :-\
For a standard layout there are 98 keys. Enjoy

I always buy a few extra switches just in case. Taking into account the excessive chattering that seems to occur with many Zealios I'd look into ordering some more if I were you.

I wasn't intending to build a full size when I bought the Zealios, was thinking they would go on the alphas of a 60% and my JD40 but this was too shiny! I also have 20 linears so if some do turn out bad (non removable switch tops :-X) I can swap them in, but most importantly I have 100 purple stems so all good :thumb:

Post by: building_an_ergo on Fri, 01 January 2016, 23:45:17
I assumed they are mounted first, and then the plate is? Doing this leaves a littel space between the plate and the PCB. This is normal correct? The switches themselves leave a little space between PCB and Plate when locked it.

This is correct, right? The plate will go over, I will solder every switch in, then I close it up in the case, right?

That is correct, the switches themselves will hold the plate and PCB together. Just make sure you snap in all your switches good, I tend to like to put a switch in all four corners to start.

Yeap that's how you do, just always make sure to do a last minute check that all switches are level and snapped in corrrectly before you start soldering. I made that mistake once... :-[

Here it is with all switches snapped in. Gonna have to take another look at that bottom row, not sure about spacing. And I am still on the fence about that split spacebar. I want it, but getting keycaps for it will be hell.

No problem, split spacebar does seem pretty interesting but it would definitely be harder finding compatible caps. Best of luck on your build, it's nice seeing the progress pics. :thumb:

It appears that the plate does not support switch top removal, you would have to desolder the switch and pop it out.

Just tried it on my metal plate. Looks like a negative.
Might be able to work one or two open if you had to, but any more than that and it'd be easier to desolder everything.

I've been waiting on some PCB mount stabs for the spacebar on a board I finished about a month ago and have been using a 2u blank for a while, and I definitely like the solid feel of a smaller spacebar. Glad you said something, now I know what to spend my excess funds on for my round 6 order :p

It won't do any damage at all to the PCB, you should be just fine to turn it on.

Yes those should work fine, however if you ever wish to put any in your switches they need to be flangeless(minus the protruding rim at the bottom). I personally like 2x3x4mm LEDs since they tend to be brighter but that won't matter too much for just the indicators.

Yeah I made the same mistake as well when adding LEDs to my Pok3rs. I was actually able to clip them off with a pair of small wire cutters but I suggest wearing eye protection, I got a piece of plastic stuck in my and I thought I was going blind.

That sounds absolutely terrifying.
I ordered a pack like that 100 count one. I figure I will do the notification LED and the ESC key for now. Will leave the rest for another day.

Haha I hate to say this, since I'm very regretful about it but I did pass on this group buy. However I do have a board that uses the same firmware(TX87). I haven't messed around with it too much but have got the hang of it a bit. My favorite thing about the software is once you get the board connected(simply by clicking Keyboard -> Connect) then any switch you press is then highlighted on the layout display. So I just press through each switch and then assign each key to whatever I like. I am waiting for leeku to to give an update allowing in-switch brightness control and MX Lock compatibility, then I'll be in complete love with the software. It's probably the easiest software that I have used.

A little pricey, but Amazon wants me to wait a month, and I am dieing to use this thing.

My favorite thing about the software is once you get the board connected(simply by clicking Keyboard -> Connect) then any switch you press is then highlighted on the layout display. So I just press just go through pressing each switch and then assigning each key to whatever I like.
Oh....I missed the whole keyboard connect thing...

Holy **** did I have a seizure when writing that haha, I fixed it in my post but I obviously had two different sentences in mind and tried to combine them. Yeah those LEDs are pretty pricey but if it saves you a month then I can definitely understand.

So here it isShow Image(http://i.imgur.com/966gZ9c.jpg)
Didn't put all the screws in (CAUTION:Those plastic ones strip easy as ****, be careful) because I have to open it up in a few days (for LEDs), but it all seems to work.
No clue how to work the JigOn software. Tinkered for a minute or two but couldn't figure it out. Will give it another shot when I finally close it up. Thinking Deep Space caps...
For the most part,
1. Connect the Keyboard
2. Press the Key you want mapped (highlights the key, don't mind if it doesn't look like it is the correct position)
3. Press the key you want it mapped to (will overwrite the old one)
4. Update All

Yea, I got it now, thanks. Missed out on the connect part.
I'd take a picture, but it just has the qwerty keys and 1u blanks for the rest right now. Got about a week before the rest of the keyset comes in.

To start, here are my JigOn settings. Set to solid white (5 minute timeout) with default layout except for the removal of the FN key (only using one layer at this time):

First is the bottom.

Yeah unfortunately I lost my deposit like the rest of you and ended up paying a bit more than I would have (although this was fully assembled and has a acrylic diffuser between the aluminum bodies so it was worth it for how amazing the keyboard is) so it hurt my wallet a lot but I really really wanted one so I'm so happy to have it.

I didn't put LEDs in except for my ESC key which is white.
I mean, worst comes to worst, aren't there lots of colored covers you can put on to change the color?
Or you could try SIP sockets.

I've never seen good cyan LEDs, they always seem way too green and not enough blue. After finally getting them and putting them in my r1 Jane, Sky Blue is my all time favorite with hot pink as second. White is always the Plan B for me when I use a set that wouldn't match well with my first two choices.

I was thinking about doing the same. However, this is my first Kustom so I wanted to go all out :D anyways I'm pretty sure there are holes on the bottom of the case so the LEDs can shine through. It will not; however, be anywhere near as bight as your will be.

You could probably drill some holes directly where the SMD LEDs are if you still want some light to shine through.

Plate is secured in the keyboard therefore the pcb is too

yep, RGB Mouse.. So far I really like cyan/red, lavender/peach, pink/red for colour schemes.. still not exactly sure how the RGB lighting works in jigon but I've got it working to my liking.

Looking so dope! :thumb:
Every day this week I'm going to be racing home early from work hoping to find a box of keyboard goodies waiting for me! Hopefully I will have a few pieces by then to make my build stand out :thumb:

after fully assembling I realize now that I forgot the indicator LEDs I'll wait till the rest arrive to solder them in. loving the feel of the board more professional pics will come a bit later..
That looks great!
For some reason I forgot to split the Numpad + key into two.
Gonna have to open mine up and desolder it soon.

Anyone in NA that'd be willing to build my keyboard in a few months? Didn't get assembly since i'm waiting on the new purple zealio switches that will be coming out soon.

Since the plate is so thick, very little of the pins come through the PCB. Is that correct?
I'll take a picture if it's necessary.

Quick question about the acrylic plate since this is the first of this kind I've seen.The pins of The switches? It would be good to see a picture but I think it should be fine

Forgive me for my ignorance xD.
Here's a picture of what I thought was a very shallow fit, but when situating more than one switch everything fits very well indeed. Can't wait to get my stabs so I can put this thing together :D

Thanks, I'd love to do it myself but I haven't done any soldering before so I'm afraid i'll mess up or ruin the pcb.

Really? In LA, I always see the mailman roll through and deliver mail to the houses before returning to the truck and getting the packages. At the apartment, the dude just backs the truck to the mailbox area and does packages and letters at the same time. I thought this was the case everywhere, but that's just me assuming things haha.

so @Leeku is there a part number I could order to replace this LED? or what this kind of SMD is it called... just want to make sure I get the right kind. Also are the RGB led's glued to the PCB or something? I tried to desolder it to take it off since it was slightly annoying me but I didn't want to force it off..
Other than that issue loving this board gat blacks are nice and the LED's that do work are great.. going to go to the hardware store and get some shorter bolts so I can lower the angle by taking out a layer of the feet.. I can't stop taking pictures of it cause its so nice! :thumb:

lastly if anyone is interested I also found in JigOn the Left bottom LED selector corresponds to the LED beside capslock and then left to right then up a row then right to left is all the LED's clockwise in order if that makes sense at all..
Also these are the modes from what I can tell if anyone was wondering.
RGB mode 1 - Snake clockwise
RGB mode 2 - Slow breathing
RGB mode 3 - Slow Fades in and out in order through RGB colours bottom left to right -> top right to left
RGB mode 4 - Fast breathing
RGB mode 5 - Fast mode 3
RGB mode 6 - Solid On

Haha I know what you mean. I got the "coke set" and plan on putting that on the board. But for now I have a granite set with a non granite num pad ready to go. the font is a bit different but at least it is the same profile.

so I've been messing around with my board, took it apart to do indicator LED's cause I originally forgot. when I did this I noticed a small problem, 2 dead RGB led's.. luckily one of them was only slighty messed up one of the 4 leads wasn't soldered on so it wouldn't do green but a quick solder fixed that one.. the other one seems to be stuck doing whatever the hell it wants.. which is sort of a pain and I'd like to replace it.
so @Leeku is there a part number I could order to replace this LED? or what this kind of SMD is it called... just want to make sure I get the right kind. Also are the RGB led's glued to the PCB or something? I tried to desolder it to take it off since it was slightly annoying me but I didn't want to force it off..
Just received mine, and it already comes with two extra RGB LED's in the package with all the screws. Did you check yours?

its my first time build a custom board and i want to ask something..
i want to build my numpad like this

but since the acrylic plate on numpad is blocking the switch
i should cut the acry like this

I am so psyched to get this thing assembled.
So, I'm curious for opinions.
I ordered those clip-on pads from Massdrop, and was thinking about using them with this build.
But, I believe they only work with PCB-mounted switches.
Assuming this board can be properly assembled without the plate (I believe it can), how do you think this board would fair without a plate?
Comfortable? Not comfortable? Explode in a fiery inferno?

Its not the stabs stabs are PCB mounted, its the fact that there is no screw ins on PCB it connects to rest of the case with the plate.I'm pretty sure you need a plate for it.

Nevermind I'm just dumb. The switches just slot in. I've only built kbs before where you had to remove the switch top and sandwich the plate in.
No worries, once the switches are soldered in then it will all hold together just fine between the switches, plate, and PCB. :thumb:

Picked up my board today. I'm excited to put this thing together; please forgive me however, for I am an idiot and have to ask: what is the correct way to remove the "bookends" on the PCB? Are you supposed to just snap it off? I started to do that, and the entire PCB creaked like I was about to shatter it. I think I'm just being paranoid, but I could use some confirmation, as one would reassure a toddler.
Yes they are to be snapped off. Just put your thumbs on either side of the dashed part and turn your hands inwards, slow and steady, there is now way the PCB should be creaking :eek:

Yes they are to be snapped off. Just put your thumbs on either side of the dashed part and turn your hands inwards, slow and steady, there is now way the PCB should be creaking :eek:
Yeah, was perfectly fine.
Switches are all in place now, ready for soldering. Too bad I didn't get any indicator LEDs with the kit - weird, 'cause I thought I asked for them. Guess I'll have to scrounge up a few post-haste.

Downside to the Alu bottom skin is that almost no light gets into the duck feet :(

See where it says "DUCK FEET" by the edge there? That is a solder pad for the surface mount RGBs. They sit in the hole of the duck feet to light up the acrylic inserts

can someone give me a quick run down on the keymapping for this? I cannot get it working for the life of me. connecting/update all, saving, nothing.
Double check the 'Default Layer' selection. If you are like me you are editing 'Layer 0', but your default layer is set to 'Layer 2'... The program seems to swtich that setting by itself, and very frequently :rolleyes:

A few things.
1. Make sure you "connect" to the board before changing things.
2. Make sure you Apply All when finished.
3. Make sure the correct default layer is selected.

will it connect now or not even? if it connects, click the switch you want to program on your keyboard then click with the mouse on the lower keyboard what you want to map it to be, then to save changes do Update > All, then disconnect. should see something happen. if thats not working how far can you get before things stop working?

It says Connected, but pressing a key on the keyboard doesn't change the selected key in the gui, I tried manually changing something and nothing. Tried changing the RGB color to a single color and nothing. Tried running jigon in compatibility mode, admin etc. Going to try it on a different computer when I get out of work later.will it connect now or not even? if it connects, click the switch you want to program on your keyboard then click with the mouse on the lower keyboard what you want to map it to be, then to save changes do Update > All, then disconnect. should see something happen. if thats not working how far can you get before things stop working?did you download and run L3FW_151230 first?

Actually the RGB pad for duckfeet is not in the original PCBs. I made just little more(when I got 100pcs of original PCB already made).
So I just try to include (DuckFeet's RGB pad) to whom want the Alu Bottom. - because the RGB light does not go through the Alu plate.
Sorry for all but please think who got the extra x2 RGB is just a lucky guys.

Does anyone know how do you install the frosted acrylic parts of the duck feet? They just fall out of mine so I am assuming I need to stick some double sided tape or something? There were 4 pan-head screws included in the feet package in addition to the countersunk ones for the aluminum feet that I thought might be used to attach the acrylic but I don't see anywhere to use them.
There should be the screw hole at the side of bottom plate like ( :====: ) Dose not yours have it?

Currently I have this macro set up
MACRO REC
[C|m|C} [S|h|S}ello ,
[S|t|S}hanks,
[S|d|S}avis[up][up][up]
DONE
What this does is that it creates a new email tabs into the body (4 tabs) then types that message, however it's too fast for the application, sometimes it types the message in the BCC field, other times it types it in the subject field, and sometimes it works as intended, the only thing I can think that would cause this is the fact that it's pressing tab too fast for lotus notes to keep up.

I'm not at my PC and I may be misunderstanding but if you're saying turn the switch LEDs brightness up and down via the switches then last I checked there was an option to bind keys to led brightness up and down which I believe was for switch LEDs

It's a pain swapping resistors every time you change LEDs, especially since I used sip sockets. :(

Does anyone know if there is any way to make it so that the macros are slower?
At my job we use Lotus Notes as our email application, and I was going to set up macro's to pre-fill certain information in emails I send out (different macro for each formality)
Currently I have this macro set up
MACRO REC
[C|m|C} [S|h|S}ello ,
[S|t|S}hanks,
[S|d|S}avis[up][up][up]
DONE
What this does is that it creates a new email tabs into the body (4 tabs) then types that message, however it's too fast for the application, sometimes it types the message in the BCC field, other times it types it in the subject field, and sometimes it works as intended, the only thing I can think that would cause this is the fact that it's pressing tab too fast for lotus notes to keep up.
Let me keep that for next FW releae...
Also MX-Lock and in-switch LED brightness control please! Much thanks. ;)

wait. so when using sip socket every time changing led the resistor break? and you should swap it??

No, not at all. It's just that different LED colors have different voltage range, therefore the same resistance will make the LED dimmer for some colors but brighter for other ones.
So I finally got the board and got it all soldered up. Everything works great except for the Up arrow. At first I thought it was a switch issue so I desoldered and soldered a new switch on but it still doesn't work. Is there anything else I can do to try and fix it? Or is all hope lost?
Can you take of picture of the PCB where the arrow key is located, may have a problem with the diode.

owh ic ic.. im still doing lubing and sip socketing my switch now.
so when i heard about that im a bit shocked. :))
its my first time build a custom board, im really enjoying open a switch one by one. :rolleyes:
its really make my day. :cool:

Yup, you're just missing a diode. Luckily that's an easy fix. I'm not sure what the diodes that board uses but LL4148 diodes should work just fine. Just make sure you have the polarity the same as the others. The little black part inside the square indicates where you should have the polarity. :thumb:

No problem, the best part is that they're cheap. Here's a link that I used on eBay that arrived relatively quick, http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vishey-LL4148-SMD-SOD-80-Diodes-200-pcs-/301791912110?

When I plug it in I get a windows error message saying something along the lines of "unrecognized USB device"

Edit 2: Tried plugging it into a couple co-worker's computers and it's doing the same thing for all of them too. It worked last night when I left work and nothing has changed, yet now it seems like the keyboard is the issue...

Came to work today and the keyboard RGB LEDs were doing the snake mode, even though I have it set to mode 6 (solid) went to type on it and it's not working at all, none of the keys are doing anything and its just RGB Snaking (which I believe was the default mode) I've tried unplugging and plugging it back in to different USB ports and nothing seems to do anything different. When I connect it using JigOn it has all of my previous settings defaulted however updating all does nothing.Just wondering, what version of windows is it on?

I believe windows 10 is a no go for the software / firmware. Don't quote me on it.

This will probably not be of much help, but my keyboard was programming fine under Windows 10, but it suddenly the software isn't finding the keyboard anymore. I'll look into what the issue might be and update once I figure it out, but it might be a while since I'm lazy.
One weird thing I have found is that it only applies RGB LED settings on first run. If I wanna change it again, I have to open and close JigOn.

Desolder the diode and test it. It may be faulty.

Any aditional information I can provide to help troubleshoot? I really love this keyboard and really really hope I'm not **** out of luck here :(
Post by: axtran on Thu, 14 January 2016, 15:53:03
Alright, at home now and it's doing the exact same thing, when I plug it in the RGB LEDs just do the Snake (Mode 1 I believe) and none of the keys do anything. It says "Unrecognized USB Device" and JigOn does nothing as well.

The board could be trying to boot in some random mode. My experience is around the FaceW... however there might be some key that gets your keyboard to "force itself" into USB mode. Try holding U as you plug it in or something like that? It could also be in bootloader mode of some kind...

Guess I left that out by accident, I've tried a few combinations of this based off of my google results, I know I tried Esc, Q, and U, and I believe I tried something else but cant remember, maybe Fn, or F1 or something, and none of that did anything either ;(
Edit:
The only thing I could think of that I haven't tried is flashing it, however based off of a post I found on DT that broke someones Leeku 1800 PCB to the point that they needed to add multiple pins and things I didn't understand to the PCB to get it to work again.

Welp today has been a great day for keyboards and me -_-, first come to work and my new keyboard that I'm super in love with is broken, spend most of my work day trying to fix it to no avail, bring it home hoping its just a weird issue at work, same thing at home, decide to check and see if there's anything visibly wrong with my soldering, unable to remove acrylic screws, try using rubberband trick I saw on reddit to remove stripped screws, screwdriver slips and cracks top housing in two... well at least now I can get it off, finally get everything removed, everything looks perfectly fine, realize my sip sockets came in the mail, shortly after realize that they don't work in Zealio's switches because the slot for the LED wires is too thin and the sip socket top wont go in far enough to stick through the pcb. If you read all the way through this mess of a post hopefully my misfortunes can benefit you in someway.
Also I emailed you leeku about buying an aluminum top plate (before my acrylic one shattered) but now I really need one so if you could get back to me on if there are any available and if you know of any fix to the issue my board is having it would be really appreciated I just want to use this beauty of a keyboard :(

I will most likely be taking care of replacements, Leeku's a bit busy closing up this GB and another one, he will get back to you when he can.. I might have an acrylic top available if I take over someones alu-skin, so that can be an option :P. Sounds like some bad luck.. but I also noticed that you had to be very careful with the plastic screws as they stripped easily if screwed in too tight

I appreciate the offer and would love to take you up on it however another top doesn't do me much good if the PCB is shot sadly, can't really justify buying parts for a keyboard that doesn't work after one day of use.

how to change rgb mode i want to change it to solid, i try every rgb effect but still always breathing mode
On my computer, you have to restart JigOn everytime you apply settings.
Type 6 is the solid one btw. Close jigon, open, connect to board, change to six, hit apply.

I will most likely be taking care of replacements, Leeku's a bit busy closing up this GB and another one, he will get back to you when he can.. I might have an acrylic top available if I take over someones alu-skin, so that can be an option :P. Sounds like some bad luck.. but I also noticed that you had to be very careful with the plastic screws as they stripped easily if screwed in too tight
I appreciate the offer and would love to take you up on it however another top doesn't do me much good if the PCB is shot sadly, can't really justify buying parts for a keyboard that doesn't work after one day of use.
I already got word from Leeku that there are no more Alu tops as I am looking to get one. I could possibly let my clear acrylic top go since I got both colors.

how to change rgb mode i want to change it to solid, i try every rgb effect but still always breathing mode
I see you modded the plate. Was it hard? Or just a few snips? I still haven't decided what to build mine with.
If you're referring to the +/- numpad keys I did the same thing and it was actually really easy I couldn't snip with the crappy sissors I have so I actually just bent the two tiny parts that stuck out and they snapped right off and I was able to set it up like his (probably not the right/best way to do this but it worked fine for me)
Also word of advice for anyone with an acrylic top and screws don't even remotely tighten them if you ever want to take the top off again I can't even take it off to see if I can fix it....
Edit:
Welp today has been a great day for keyboards and me -_-, first come to work and my new keyboard that I'm super in love with is broken, spend most of my work day trying to fix it to no avail, bring it home hoping its just a weird issue at work, same thing at home, decide to check and see if there's anything visibly wrong with my soldering, unable to remove acrylic screws, try using rubberband trick I saw on reddit to remove stripped screws, screwdriver slips and cracks top housing in two... well at least now I can get it off, finally get everything removed, everything looks perfectly fine, realize my sip sockets came in the mail, shortly after realize that they don't work in Zealio's switches because the slot for the LED wires is too thin and the sip socket top wont go in far enough to stick through the pcb.

Does anyone know how do you install the frosted acrylic parts of the duck feet? They just fall out of mine so I am assuming I need to stick some double sided tape or something? There were 4 pan-head screws included in the feet package in addition to the countersunk ones for the aluminum feet that I thought might be used to attach the acrylic but I don't see anywhere to use them.
There should be the screw hole at the side of bottom plate like ( :====: ) Dose not yours have it?
Hi Leeku,
I don't see anywhere where the acrylic duck feet inserts could be screwed in.. the only hole there is the one for the RGB LED to shine from the PCB onto the duck feet. I don't see any way for the acrylic insert to be attached.

Wish I knew, I'm not really skilled at this whole thing, I've built 3 custom keyboards but that's only because I feel like if you can use a hot glue gun you can use a soldering iron. I've never had any issues similar to this so I don't have a clue where to start, only thing I can think of trying is desoldering every single switch and resoldering them and hoping for the best but I can't figure out how that would do anything since all it did from when it worked to when it didn't was sit on my empty desk at work all night :/ and my TX 1800 (using a leeku PCB and and JigOn) has done the same thing at the same desk for about 2-3 months now without any issues :( I'm willing to try any suggestions.

I wonder if maybe the USB port or something came lose? Did you check the PCB to make sure nothing got damaged?
When I first built my ergodox I spent hours trying to figure out why the left hand didn't work only to find out I didn't finish soldering the TRRS port down.

If it's registering as an "unknown device" that means the power and data pins are all connected - the USB connection is good. It won't be a problem in the switch matrix either so please don't waste your time desoldering :eek:
That the controller is alive enough to run the LEDs as chasing is surely a good sign - have you tried something slightly stupid like pressing all the switches while you switch a computer on? Who knows, maybe one of them will fix it.

This will probably not be of much help, but my keyboard was programming fine under Windows 10, but suddenly the software isn't finding the keyboard anymore. I'll look into what the issue might be and update once I figure it out, but it might be a while since I'm lazy.
I have fixed my issue by switching to a different USB port. *shrug*
And now with the different USB port I don't have to restart JigOn at all. Just start the program, and everything is flashed without issue. Windows 10 is great?

I'll give it a shot here in an hour or so and see if it does anything I've held quite a few buttons but who knows.
The only other thing I think might be worth mentioning is that I edited my registry to change caps lock to ctrl on a keyboard I used to use that didn't have a mapper using some program I found online, however I doubt that's relevant since it had the same issue on a PC that hasnt had that done to it and my other leeku pcb doesn't have the issue on the pcs I did it to

Ok guys i need some help, ive gotten all the sip sockets and leds put in the switches and the switches soldered in, everything works including the leds except for the space bar. ive looked over everything but the key is not being registered when it is pressed, led works fine tho, ive run out of ideas so any help would be awesome :thumb:
Take a picture of the PCB where the spacebar is, you most likely have a missing diode or a defective one.

only my second soldering job so be gentle :))
Hmm your diode is still intact. You said your LEDs work for the spacebar because I can't see them soldered? I would heat up the pins for the switch and reflow the solder, could possibly be a cold joint. If not then you may want to replace the diode it self but there could be an issue with the trace, can't see anything from the pic though.

Glad I'm not the only one! With the popularity of the Purple Zealios it seems almost like no one bought the linears. Haven't tried them yet, since I'm waiting for some LEDs to arrive before I assemble it completely. Got the switches soldered in and tested them a few with key caps on it so far and I really love the feel, plus they look awesome.

Ah glad to see you got it fixed. I totally forgot that spacebar is assigned to function in the beginning, I don't have a Compact SQ but I do have a leeku PCB in one of my boards.

Id take a guess at saying you can't. It is the same deal as not being able to remap what a key does when you have shift held down (or not).

Possible that you just need to force bootloader and completely reload the firmware. I'm not familiar with how to exactly do it for your PCB, you might need to jump some administrative pins though.

Let me clarify that came off as blaming or anything, I'm not upset with you, or with leeku, you've tried your hardest with suggestions, I've emailed leeku and PM'd him and haven't got any response (this was prior to my first post on here mentioning issues) so it's not as easy as asking him to sell me a replacement PCB or seeing what sort of resolution he may offer.So I guess no one has any other suggestions for me and I just got a bad PCB or something oh well wont be the first or last time I'm left feeling empty handed after a group buy :(

Yes it did work however only for a day, and I know it's my word against well idk who's but it is frustrating when you pay for something use it one day don't change anything and the next day it's completely bricked and I can't get ahold of the original supplier :(
Again I want to be clear I'm not trying to say anyone here is bad or anything, up until my PCB randomly stopped working this has been one of the best GB's I've been part of very fast and well organized and will for sure take part in future GB's by him!

yeah I have no idea how to do that, hopefully someone that does can elaborate, I've been doing a ton of googling and haven't been able to find any suggestions at all :(
Ohh sorry I wrote that in a hurry as well. You aren't being ignored, leeku is very busy and I will make sure he gets your message. He's busy assembling any time he has off work. Any replacements are up to him so I can't make that call, but he has told me about his plans for the extra 100 pcbs he ordered so he could have factory SMD soldering done. Don't worry he will get your board working in one way or another

Let me clarify that came off as blaming or anything, I'm not upset with you, or with leeku, you've tried your hardest with suggestions, I've emailed leeku and PM'd him and haven't got any response (this was prior to my first post on here mentioning issues) so it's not as easy as asking him to sell me a replacement PCB or seeing what sort of resolution he may offer.So I guess no one has any other suggestions for me and I just got a bad PCB or something oh well wont be the first or last time I'm left feeling empty handed after a group buy :(
Well it's not that I'm ignoring you. It would be up to Leeku as to what to do, at one point it was working fine right?
It could be easy enough to order another PCB, but for a replacement message Leeku.
Yes it did work however only for a day, and I know it's my word against well idk who's but it is frustrating when you pay for something use it one day don't change anything and the next day it's completely bricked and I can't get ahold of the original supplier :(

Yeah so I've heard, he seems to take the speed at which he completes his services very seriously (judging by how fast this GB happened/compleated) so I understand he wants to finish all of the orders asap I sent another email just to make sure I didn't include all of the information in my initial email and I look forward to any response.

Got mine built. Typing on it right now :D
Just need to play about with the firmware tool to get the layout I want, but overall I'm very impressed.
Downside to the Alu bottom skin is that almost no light gets into the duck feet :(

Thank you for the update. this has been such a smooth group buy. Well maybe not for the 1 guy who got an iso plate. serves you right, :p
Post by: ika on Thu, 21 January 2016, 12:52:35
Anyone know how to bind things to the numpad for when numlock is off?
Id take a guess at saying you can't. It is the same deal as not being able to remap what a key does when you have shift held down (or not).
You can work around it by binding a function layer to numlock and then binding numrow keys to the numpad section and putting the numpad keys proper on the function layer. Not perfect but it's probably better than the altnerative.

I think it's going to be hard to get into this GB. At the very least there are no more Alu top plates.
Leeku is making a 75% in this style soonish, so maybe wait out for that?

Edit: also.. A long shot.. But does anyone have an extra alu top?
Post by: nathanrosspowell on Sun, 24 January 2016, 23:28:24
What are some key sets currently available that will fit this? Joined the enjoy pbt gb but I am considering getting something else to put it it for now. I know of jtk but that's all I can think of.Pretty much all sets that come with a short right shift (1.75u). The only other quirk is that there are two extra keys on the top row than on a normal TKL board, but that is really easy to cater for :thumb:

Also note that if you find a set that doesnt come with that 1.75u right shift, but does come with stepped caps, use the stepped caps in the caps position and the normal capslock as a 1.75 right shift.
Also, one thing that was a surprise to me with the ANSI plate is that your gonna need 2x 1.5 mods for ctrl and alt on the right side of the spacebar.

Also note that the resistors that are pre-installed are rated too high for 1.8mm RGB leds to cycle! They will still work but they will get stuck on red and not cycle.

I finished building my Compact SQ last night and used JigOn to configure it with my usual keymap. I have one question though: is it possible to map a key using JigOn to toggle the backlight LEDs on/off?Backlight or Case lights? Backlight can be toggled if you set up different lighting profiles then there is mappable keys labeled LED toggle I think.. As fae as case lights I think a few pages back someone said only way is by setting them all to black.

Ah, I'm asking about the case lights here. You're right - I read the post about setting them all to black. I'm guessing there's no way to configure the keyboard such that I could toggle between "RGB-on" and "RGB-black" with a single key yet.

Leeku told me he did not ship a few orders with alu skin due to the quality and ordered more (waiting). If it was the simple acrylic kit then I can ask again.

5 out of 8 keyboards assembly done
Will be finished by February for sure.
He apologies for the mess it has been, he might not be offering assembly next GB due to time constraints.
Next GB might be limited as well (in smaller quantities)
--
For those asking about ALU Skin there are 5 bad ones... He does not want to sell them because they are turned out very bad, he did order "a few" extras" as well as the 5 that he deemed unacceptable quality.
- He will let you know if there are extras when closing the GB.

That would be a good look.. do you have a source for re-annodizing? Pricey? I kind of like the silver right now too.. though I have a couple other silver boards already.. both 60% though.

That would be a good look.. do you have a source for re-annodizing? Pricey? I kind of like the silver right now too.. though I have a couple other silver boards already.. both 60% though.
I've never had it done before. I couldn't tell you.
Anodizing in the United States is a bit more pricy and hard enough to find a shop willing to do a small job, it's been $80-120 for a tkl size keyboard but since these are just slabs I imagine it's much less.
For the debate:
The feet is from duck and the skin is from LZ.

Oh I'll probably just keep it the same then. I think they are both done well. Very happy with the board. Just gotta find time to build it :(

With all that clack money you're getting why would you spend ~$100 on getting it reanodized? It'll be a one off and super rare, since that seems like what most people care about nowadays.

No salt at all, I was asking him a valid question. I personally think getting a different color would be nice, titanium grey is one of my favorites.

theres no IC but leeku sure will release it after this GB..
this is post from leeku himself
There are lots of gorgeous TKL keyboards out there!
I like those cool keyboards rather than this. Haha
For me? I love my Orion v2 with ALPS linear.
Sorry I don't have any plan for TKL but do have75% 65% 60% version of this.
and theres so many post about 75% on page 5 if you want to read it :thumb:
and about the aluminum we still dont know yet :)

Please find the attachment for the partial drawing file. If you want any mod for your CPSQ . :)
I am assuming you could use this drawing file to get custom cases cut.
Anyone know of a place that does so?

As far as metal plates there is bigbluesaw I think is fairly popular but looking locally is usually the best route.Please find the attachment for the partial drawing file. If you want any mod for your CPSQ . :)

Bigbluesaw plates are BAD, like not even a little good. Definitely find somewhere else. Ive gotten strait up rusty/scratched up steel plates with tons of burs and holes that needed to be hand worked on to fit switches in. Fair warning, stay away from BBS unless your are using acrylic (pretty hard to mess that up).

Did you get some sort of shipping notification or just going off the last update?
Leeku - I sent you an email, is it too late to add duck feet? If it is too late, no problem. These pictures with duck feet make me feel like I made a big mistake not buying them originally.

Soooooo. Anyone have buyer's remorse?
Nope, I'm such a sucker for 1800 layout and this is the only successful custom 1800 keyboard GB that I know of.
Hopefully yuktsi managed to salvage TX1800 successfully so that I can sneak into the GB

Soooooo. Anyone have buyer's remorse?
The only buyers remorse I have is that I didn't buy two and one set of every top plate.
If this ever runs again I am picking up another.
I'm such a sucker for 1800 layout and this is the only successful custom 1800 keyboard GB that I know of.
Winkeyless has a similar design, and the lightsaver v2 is pretty similar too.
Both aren't as good as the Compact SQ if you ask me. The winkeyless has terrible arrpw placement, and the lightsaver has no arrows at all.

We are all extremely grateful for the work you have put in, this GB was ran a lot more professional then some of the other GB's ive participated in, that's for sure. So thank you for offering to even do this for us. I would imagine that offering assembly is very taxing, im actually surprised that you offered that service. Anyway, thanks!

Leeku you have been an amazing GB leader and handled every process of the buy very well, I hope that you can continue with the great work you're doing and I know I'll be keeping my eye on anything you do in the future
. If there was a GB leader rating system or something I'd give an A+ for sure.

I'm extremely thankful that you run this GB, and I'm extremely grateful that you still allow me to sneak into GB 2 months after I filled the form. You still even remember me about this GB when I even forget and give up hope that I will never get into this GB. Once again, thank you for your hard work.

I'm going to echo what a lot of people saying and mention that you have kept a very professional attitude and excellent GB leader along with Meiosis. The fact that I was late and still managed to get it, I'm not only thankful but also really appreciative of all the things that went on in this GB.
I don't know if your cool with doing another GB, but I would happily vouch that you have an awesome record.
I can't wait to get my board together and start using it. :cool:

In preparation for receiving my parts, I have made a sapele wood wrist rest. Can anyone confirm front lip height from the desk to the top of the casing?
22mm to top of top layer
18mm to top of middle layer (that sticks out about 1mm)
edit: these are the measurements with the acrylic tiltbar (with all 3 layers) and the clear acrylic top/bottom plates

The first round of packages didn't have tracking but arrived way faster than expected, Mine was shipped Dec 29th and arrived Jan 5th so if its anything similar the hype can start now
thanks, I was going to ask how long the expected shipping time would be. Korea to NA in a week is amazing. HYPE

Two days later than I said, finally I shipped all today including missing parts for 1'st ship.
Except...
Flyersfan : waiting switches..
Rodgaroon : waiting switches..
Kay : ship yours all together
axtran : ship with another order
MrRocks : ship with another order
Appleonama : ship with another order
Soulpyre : waiting switches..
I'm very sorry for you guys, it will be shipped next Monday.
It's hard to notice you tracking # individually, but you will get in next week mostly.
Email me if you really need a tracking.
leeku11@gmail.com (heading with CPSQ[yournick])
Next step!.
1. Get complains (damages, wrong piece shipped) : 1st April ~ 7th April
2. Drop left overs (7~8 sets if I'm lucky enough, I don't now) : 8th April ~
3. Getting rest! :cool: :cool: :cool: :cool: :cool: :cool: :cool: :cool:

No worries, thank you for the update.
This is a lesson for all people who want to start a group buy; we all know delays happen and with leeku there has been constant communication and we all know where we stand. This has a positive group buy, even though I don't have my board yet, I still have a smile on my face.
Again thank you for the constant updates, and I look forward to the end result :thumb:

Got mine in today, looks great! Sadly I seem to be having an issue with my z and numpad 7 keys not working. Contacted Leeku to see what should be done but looks like I'll be back to waiting again! SKIDATA is still a few months out so no biggie until then anyways. Leeku's been really great this far so I'm not worried.
I had a similar issue with my 1800 L3 PCB. The Prt Sc key was not registering keystrokes, even though the diode and switch tested OK. I fired up the JigOn tool and it saw all of my keystrokes and it allowed me to easily remap the Prt Sc key back to the correct function.

When I load up JigOn it doesn't actually register a press for the z and 7 keys when all other keys do.

Yes it is. By factory default(my home default actually :) ), the MX1800 has been mapped Pause key as FN key.
Cause Pause is most rarely used key(in my case sorry haha).
Pause will be issued with FN(pause key) + Scrlock.
Thanks for using it btw.
And Kempher's problem seems different as he said.

I know I am late, but is it still possible to order one???
I emailed Leeku and he said it was okay as he has leftovers. However he will charge you a reasonable late fee of $30 USD

Glad he has extras for people who came in really late. The keyboards awesome, you won't be disappointing.

Sorry, but I am easily confused. I was aware that the Pause switch functioned as the Fn key, but I'm not sure how that relates to the problem that I had with the Print Screen key. I expect that I failed to adequately explain my problem. No matter, it was easily resolved.
Thanks for a great board and the JigOn tool. I've not even scratched the surface of JigOn, but it looks like there is quite a bit of functionality there.
Cheers!

I've been trying to figure out more about JiGon myself but anything I do with the lighting doesn't really do anything except the colors and rgb effects 1-6. Anyone have any advice for changing the lighting further or is that mostly it? I'm not sure what the key and arrow effects are supposed to do. I've messed with them but haven't seen any difference when changing to any of them. The sleep time is a wonderful thing though... Wish I could get my mouse to do that, it would make movies so much better.
Keys and arrow LED effects for inswitch LEDs.
And you can choose the color of each RGBs by drop down below.
rGB effects are not quite many. Just fading and let them hold on.

That's a bummer about the cases, but there's no reason why Swill's tool couldn't be used for the plate and case.

Nevermind:
I already got word from Leeku that there are no more Alu tops as I am looking to get one. I could possibly let my clear acrylic top go since I got both colors.
No alu, no buy!!! :( :'(

I don't think there has ever been a specific group buy but if a duck board GB stats on Geekhack you can try and get the feet only. May cost $50 plus shipping but that's the price you have to pay.

Sorry I don't get "I didn't fall off the radar"
I sent your part btw have not received yet?
Fall off radar = forgotten about :).
Haha. I guess his is on the way still
lol yeah sorry, it's a figure of speech. But I think "fiigure of speech" could be considered a figure of speech, so maybe I'm just making things worse.
But anyway, it's shipped and I'm sure it will arrive soon.
Thanks so much for your dedication.

Anyone happen to know the part number/name of the RGB LEDs used on the board? I need an additional two of them for my Duck Feet pads. :(

ws2812b
Thanks. I also found out that it's also known as the Adafruit 1655 (on Digikey and Mouser, actually 1/3 of the cost of the other manufacturer). Put in an order for a few... looks like I'm going to be on a holding pattern before I can build out my Compact SQ. :(

Before I started soldering I made sure the pcb worked but there seems to be a dead led I think. There is nothing wrong with the traces and anything around it is fine but this led wont light up. I'm not sure what to do... should I replace the ws2812b led? or wait for leeku
hopefully this macro shot is more than clear

EDIT: WELP now more than half the LED are dead or that single led completely died which is stopping the signal flow through the rest of the led's

Great to see more of these arriving, I'm right in thinking they just turn up with no warning? Maybe tomorrow...
Correct, there was no shipping notification or tracking information provided to me. It took roughly a week for me to receive in NA. I hope you get a box soon!
Leeku & Meiosis, thanks for making my first custom group buy a great one! The acrylic plate is just the best to type on & I'm in love with look/layout. :thumb:

That was a fear of mine as well because all of my other numpads have a 2u zero key. I've found that I have no issues getting used to the numpad, but I am hitting the up arrow key A LOT because I'm used to a full sized right shift.

I remember you as very first in my mind. You are the one who wants ISO. sorry for late but you will get soon. I guess it would be in your place.
I sugest 2u + key instead 1u + - key it looks better and easily find caps.

Yup, that's me! I still can't believe no-one else wanted ISO...
I've got a set of Hyperfuse here waiting so may go for a full 1u numberpad, having only one 2u doesn't look great but all 1u should. Will check before soldering it!
The postman's usually been by now so it's not looking good for today, but I will have a play in Jigon in preparation :)

Duck feet SMDs only went out with the Alu bottom plate as it pretty much stops all light getting into the duck feet.

About these indicator LEDs, I have not gotten a good look at the top plate (black acrylic) and how these sit under it. Do the need to be round LEDs, do the sit in/through the top plate or can I use square LEDs, which I have on hand in the colours i want.
Any LEDs work, I've used 2x3x4, 5mm, 3mm and 1.8mm and all seemed to work.

Lol you can't be serious.
Sorry, I always forget that slight sarcasm does not go too well on the internet, should have added a smiley behind it to loosen the mood.
I think he is and really he should just PM leeku about it.
It seems like he checks this thread pretty often, so chances are that he answers here and others also get the info whether there will be another round or not.
Edit because new comment:
Thanks to glissant for the answer.

It would be safer to PM him if you really want a board.

Will there be a round 2 of this later this year? I can't quite afford to order another keyboard atm.
Most likely not as he has other plans in the works. However, he did say he had leftovers but you have to pay a reasonable $30 late fee.
Hope it helps

leeku did say that he wasn't going to make this again, but had plans for a different board, so if anything this board won't be made again for a very long time. I can sell you mine for one million billion dollarsShow Image(https://thebettereditor.files.wordpress.com/2014/04/dr-evil-one-billion.jpg)
stop devaluing my board, we all know its worth a hundred times that number.

Hmm, I'm having an RGB LED issue! When I plug in my board, random RGB LEDs flash once, and then stay out. Switches and in-switch LEDs work just fine... Anyone have any advice for troubleshooting?
Appleonama was having an issue with a few of them being dead, but they just needed a touch of solder. You might be just about disconnected? I have no idea in truth I don't even have mine yet I am just offering information.

It's worse than that, it's still just a moderately attractive pile of parts waiting to fulfil their potential and become a beautiful board!

Yup, should have been in the country at least a week based on the below and that's usually long enough to get a ransom note (cutoms charge notice), but coming untracked I'm not even expecting that delay.
I remember you as very first in my mind. You are the one who wants ISO. sorry for late but you will get soon. I guess it would be in your place.
I sugest 2u + key instead 1u + - key it looks better and easily find caps.

Has anyone received their "leftover" board/shipment? I'm pretty sure I was the first leftover order (he contacted me directly after I begged and begged and way before leftovers were mentioned on this thread) and he still had everything in stock. He told me he would send tracking around 10 days ago yet I never got an update from him. I just bought a house and am in the process of moving from a rental to an owned home so it kinda matters. Just curious. I don't doubt him at all! He's an awesome dude and generally very responsive! I'm just getting nervous that I'm leaving a rental on not so good terms (broke lease) to move into my purchased home and retrieving it afterwards might be difficult. If any of you got their leftovers, then it would put my mind at ease that it has been shipped.
Axtran wasn't part of the original sale iirc and he has his.

Yeah I was never "worried about it" in the sense that it would be sent. I have full 100% faith in Leeku, like I said - he's an awesome dude! What I am worried about is my crooked ass landlord taking the package if it comes after I leave the shipping address Leeku has for me. Originally Leeku said it would be sent on the 4th, giving me plenty of time, but I guess he got tied up with family etc... No biggie, I just don't want my dirty landlord's rat ass hands on it. He'll hold it hostage or some ****. I'm in a bit of a strange situation because we haven't closed yet, so I don't want to give out the new address either! Lol.

Sounds like a good time to ask family/friends/colleagues who live near by if they could accept the package for you?
Still no sign of my kit, can anyone confirm there was tracking on packages to Europe? I don't doubt leeku sent it so there's no point harassing him if there wasn't, I'll just have to hope it went on a world tour and turns up sometime :'(

I just didn't want Leeku to think I was concerned with anything that had to do with him, because I'm not.

The weird thing is that It worked fine after I assembled it and tested it a few weeks ago but now I just get "unrecognized usb device" and when I watch the device manager, every time i press a key, the board disconnects and then reconnects.
Jigon doesn't successfully connect to it, and of course i tried multiple PC's and cords along with trying to update the driver software with a variety of generic HID keyboard device drivers. I also tried re-flowing all the USB connector solder joints along with cleaning it again with rubbing alcohol. I cant seem to figure out whats going on with it
The atmega32u4 chip on the keyboard seems like the firmware got corrupted somehow and now windows doesnt like it anymore. Im not sure how to make the chip switch to bootloader mode (if that would even help) and im not sure how exactly the jigon software compiles the firmware.
If anyone can help please let me know. Pulling my hair out here. Also note that I have other CP-SQ's that sucessfully dectect and work on my machines, this seems like an isolated indecent.

Jigon doesn't successfully connect to it, and of course i tried multiple PC's and cords along with trying to update the driver software with a variety of generic HID keyboard device drivers. I also tried re-flowing all the USB connector solder joints along with cleaning it again with rubbing alcohol. I cant seem to figure out whats going on with it
The atmega32u4 chip on the keyboard seems like the firmware got corrupted somehow and now windows doesnt like it anymore. Im not sure how to make the chip switch to bootloader mode (if that would even help) and im not sure how exactly the jigon software compiles the firmware.
If anyone can help please let me know. Pulling my hair out here. Also note that I have other CP-SQ's that sucessfully dectect and work on my machines, this seems like an isolated indecent.
SOLVED by holding the "u" key whal connecting the USB cord!
Apparently you can hold U for usb mode or P for ps2 mode whal connecting the cord. How my board managed to be in the wrong mode is beyond me.
also almost instant email response from Leeku! THANK YOU LEEKU!!!

Is it still possible to somehow purchase a set of this unassembled?
Leeku may still have acrylic sets available.
Just send him an email.
I'm kinda new at this.... could anyone PM me his email address?
No problem!
If the mods don't like it I can remove it.
Also, Leeku said he will ship by Monday! Heres hoping to no delays :thumb: :thumb:

Any tips on how to set the keymapping and change the LED's?

I received a CPSQ today and am a bit confused as to how to program this thing. I downloaded the L3FW and JigOn software from here: http://kbdlab.co.kr/index.php?document_srl=2702787&mid=board_sw
Any tips on how to set the keymapping and change the LED's?
Nevermind. Helps a ton to connect to a Windows machine. Doesn't work well from a VM.

Hey guys, so I will be the last person to receive this board, leeku said something about saving the best for last :p ANYWAYS....If I want to do a fireware update I'm a bit confused with the instructions. I downloaded the latest firmware (L3FW_160422.zip) So when I run the loadfw.bat file will it detect the board and update the firmware? is there a sept I'm missing? do I have to do it through the Jigon program? If someone could give me a quick run down that would be AMAZING!
Thanks for your help in advance.
I can't answer this for you sorry but did Leeku say a shipping date? Thanks

Form is STILL up, apparently. Maybe it will be until all the leftover parts are sold off. I too joined the GB after closing time in early January, the deadline was 11/21/15. There was a (completely reasonable) late fee and no alu tops/bottoms left (so I just went with black acrylic), and I recieved my kit late March. All in all, awesome and would join after closing time again! ^-^

Mine is from the original GB, Steel plate with Alu top and bottom, Duck Feet, in switch white LEDs, custom 62G springs, MX Clears and it is being assembled by leeku. I paid extra but I'm still waiting on custom keycaps, so the wait it is not an issue. I talked to him via email and he said I was the only board left. (I'm guessing from the original GB, I have no idea regarding the leftovers / extras)

just got this board for a friend of mine, and have a few questions:
what additional keys are needed to properly fit the board? The right-hand CTRL, ALT, and shift keys are not the correct sizes from my OEM ducky keyset. Also
where can i adjust key bindings and LED colors and effects?
I'm sure this has been covered elsewhere but I'm new to the CPSQ game - sorry for my noobie questions. Just hoping for a quick-start :)

Hi everyone:

Right hand ctrl and alt need to be 1.5u in size (while the left side are 1.25u). The left shift needs to be a 1.75u 'short shift'. These are keys that are normally in an adapter kit (Tsangan kit) or in lager sets that come with all the addons (like most GMK sets).
The keymapping and LED software is called 'jig on' and there are links to it on every other page :) http://kbdlab.co.kr/index.php?document_srl=2702787&mid=board_sw
Post by: axtran on Wed, 04 May 2016, 22:10:28
If you're doing Signature Plastics kits, you'll need a "Tsangan" kit, and then whatever gives you a split right shift (I'm not sure what those would be called...).
Post by: nathanrosspowell on Wed, 04 May 2016, 22:29:51
It's based on an 1800--you will have to get a keycap set from either a harvested Cherry board or a custom keycap set which has: 1.75U Shift, 2x 1.5U Control and Shift keys (R4), 1U "0 and ." keys on the numpad, and depending upon how you configured the numpad (it supports standard large + as well as 1800 split) those keys as well.
If you're doing Signature Plastics kits, you'll need a "Tsangan" kit, and then whatever gives you a split right shift (I'm not sure what those would be called...).
Nah, short right shift is in Tsangan kits already.

I sent a "CPSQ - Username" email (as per his first comment about emails), so hopefully his filters aren't too strict... on the other hand I haven't gotten an answer yet either.

So I've had my board for around a week and a half now, and I was just scoping it out, as my stabs are supposed to come today and I'm hoping to start putting it together... I noticed that I don't have the Duck Feet RGB SMD pads on the side. I ordered it with the Duck Feet, so the PCB with Duck Feet pads should have been included (unless Leeku just didn't have anymore - I emailed him). Is there a workaround for this? Can I make some jumpers from an existing SMD RGB output or are the resistors too weak to handle two LEDs off one lead? If anyone has an extra PCB that have the duck feet pads, I would gladly trade/buy from you!
Cheers!
you ordered alu bottom too?
leeku said PCB with Duck Feet pads only for who ordered alu bottom.

Hmmm. Somehow I missed the boat on that one... I thought it was any who ordered the duck feet got that PCB, but I guess I was wrong. Looks like I'll be resoldering resistors and using jumpers! No prob really. Thanks for the help.

Why? These aren't like normal LEDs, you don't need current limiting resistors. They have built-in controllers that current limit.
I'd also recommend instead of just using a bare WS2812B LED, but a 1m strip of them and cut off one unit from the strip. The board itself will give you rigidity and a way to affix the LED to the PCB so that it can shine through the area of the GON foot that it should. Empirically, the Duckfeet LED pads were duplicates of the top row pads at both ends.
Keep in mind, the alu bottom had a hole drilled for the light to shine through. If you want this to work right, you'll probably have to drill a hole in the same spot. Since you're wiring the data line in parallel, you'll only need to bring over three lines: Din, Vcc, and Gnd. Don't wire Dout from the top row into the Din of your LED, wire Din.

All but one of the RGB LED have stopped working. I'm not sure exactly when this happened but I'm pretty sure it was after I used JigOn with my TX1800.
The TX1800 came with only one RGB LED soldered in place.... and that's now the only one that works on my Compact SQ :-\

There's also L3FW_160422.zip that includes the most recent FW right? How do I flash it? My KB is working well right now and I don't want to mess something up by trying a method that I presume works only to have it fail. Hold escape while I plug it in? I sat down last night and read the forum from start to finish and couldn't find much on it in the way of how to do it. It is mentioned a few times though, just without instruction.
Any help would be appreciated!

I'm the same. I trust him, but that still doesn't mean that I get a little restless every time this thread pops up in my watched threads =PTalked to him quite a bit yesterday and last week, think he's consolidating the remainder (and assembly of another few keyboards) and shipping all together, there's no worry about it :p

I shipped all by this morning includes all late orders, assembled and replacement.
I will send the tracking numbers tonight individually via email.
Hopefully all gets in good condition.
Now I don't have any left of CPSQ YEAH!!!!!!! (just couple of it left for just a case though)
I am really sorry for all the delays than we expected. And maybe someone might not be satisfied with CPSQ cause of it's Acrylic base quality.
This was really excited experience but little stressed for me.
I will get claims for 3 weeks from now. Please let me know if you don't get the box. I really prefer e-mail, it's hard to track the conversation history in GH's PM.
Thanks a lot!

Anyone know where I can get a replacement screw for the bezel of the case?
these are standard M3 (metric 3mm) countersunk screws, look on RC Car hobby shop websites or ebay. I think they are around 12-14mm long.

I'd say if you ever do it again to not do the assembly.
Seems like it took months to do and was a lot of work.

Funnily one of the things I noticed when I opened mine was the smell, mostly of newspaper but nicer smelling news paper then we get in Oceania. Also yey smoother and finer paper than anything we get here as well. So yes news papers from korea. They look interesting.
Big thank you to Leeku. This sounded like a bit of a nightmare on your side. So thank you for putting up with it. I spent all of yesterday and so far some of today just looking at the case and PCB, they are really pretty.
Mocked up the keys to see what it might look like but no switches yet and I will have to get new keys caps any way as it was all cobbled out of mismatched sets. All good things in time.
Edit: All this and no ransome note, happy days. It even had enoigh stated value to recieve one and was delivered by state post service so I am quite happy indeed.

I downloaded the latest FW (L3FW_1509007) and Mapper (JigON_151116)
My CP-SQ has 14RGB's + 2 for Duck feet (16 total) I managed to use the 20 RGB settings to it working. the problem whenever I set it to the color i wanted I would do Update > ALL and then Disconnect. but as soon as i unplug and plug it back in the keybard RGB goes back to rainbow... i just cant seem to get the RGB color to stick to the keyboard.
All i really wanted was to set the RGB to always on and to get the keyboard to remember my custom RGB lighting setting, can anyone please advice me what i'm doing wrong or how to set it that way?
@Leeku will there be an update later that would make the JigOn more compatible to the CP-SQ? such as adding 16 RGB option and some extra key functions such as the 'play/pause' key?
thanks in advance!

Post by: onmybikedrunk on Fri, 17 June 2016, 18:16:11
Hi guys. I need some help. So I was finally able to play with the pcb and the jigon software. After a few seconds of connecting, 2 of the rgb leds are now magenta. It should be white. I also noticed that not all have the same brightness/warmth.
How can I fix this?
This happened to me too. According to Leeku there were some defects with the solder on these LEDs. Reflow the solder and you should be fine. If they don't work after the reflow, then order freshies from Digi-Key or Mouser. It's part number is WS2812B

I'm running into a small problem that I'm hoping someone might have some insight into.
I installed switches to support a split backspace key (2 keys instead of one centered key), but neither those keys nor the extra key above them (to the right on F12) are functional. The LEDs function, and I can't see anything that would account for the issue. I've re-soldered, and it all looks good, including the diodes, etc.
Has anyone run this layout successfully?
I'll probably just replace the diodes next and see what happens.
It doesn't appear that any code is being sent when I actuate those keys.
Thanks

The one near the numberpad is connected on both pins to the fullsize backspace so that switch should just work and it does on my board with the latest default firmware. The inner switch position does not send a code so I don't think it's mapped - I'd fire up jigon and see if a random switch lights up when you press it before getting out the soldering iron.

Nothing lights up when any of those three switches are hit in any combination, so I'm thinking it's a hardware thing.
I was just hoping someone would have a magical solution for me, like some obscure layer combination option or something. You know... magic...
Thanks for the input though :)
I'd just swap the 2 backspace key out for a single standard backspace key, but a can't squeeze the stabilizer for it in there without de-soldering a ton of LEDs and switches :(

I'm currently using a 1.25x-1.25x-1.25x-6.25x-1x-1x-1x layout. I could probably just run a wire down to the two split-space keys, if those are actually different from the normal space key, which I think they are. Will need to take a look. That would at least take care of two of the keys.
And maybe for the third I can just wire to the standard backspace key. That would be cool. Will need to try it tonight.
Thanks :)
Post by: redbanshee on Wed, 22 June 2016, 14:42:23
Actually, that did give me a thought. Maybe I'll manually run a wire from those 3 switches to three unused switch pads.

If you're soldering the top pin of all thrre of those positions are connected to the top pin of 0 next door, and the lower pins connect to the left side of the diode below them - that would look tidier.
The switch above also connects to the top row on the top pins, and the bottom pin goes to the left of the diode below, not the one slightly right.
If you do solder them to other positions in the matrix you need to make sure they are completely isolated from their old positions which isn't easy.

Feedback appreciated!

I've collected L3 software/JigOn tips from this thread, Google translate and Github, so here is my attempt at English documentation for Leeku's software:

This is awesome and much needed. Thanks for doing that! Nothing to add off the top of my head but I will look again

Thanks a lot for this! Is there a way to dim in-switch LEDs?

Would need to calculate the resistance you need but it isn't possible through software I believe..

Sometimes the keyboard will connect but most of the time the keyboard won't connect... does anyone know how to fix this?Have you tried a different cable? Or plug it to another USB?

Yes I've used 2 different cables. Sometimes they work but most of the time they don't

When you say "connect," is that connect at all for typing, or connect to customize/flash it?
I'd say:
- try a different USB port
- try holding down 'U' as you plug it in
- flash it to the latest firmware if you're not certain it's already up to date
as starter ideas

I can connect "for typing" but i cannot connect to "customize/flash it"
I tried holding down "U" to plug it in and it's already flashed to the latest firmware
Edit: I used a different port and it connected fine. Thanks for your help!! It was much appreciated!!!

Does the push leve havel no way to "set" a push level? It does seem like something can keep it at a certain brightness when i have it on that mode

Now to figure out how to program it...
Post by: xondat on Sun, 21 August 2016, 17:53:44
FINALLY finished building this thing! After forgetting to put in stabs before soldering (almost all) switches :-[ and rebuilding, it is finished. Now I have mixed feelings towards it, because of all the frustration and effort. Even though it was my own fault in the first place. It has socketed Gateron greens.Looks good. Any other pictures? ^-^

Thanks Naasfu! I am really loving the setup but don't look forward to changing out the PCB every time I want to change the switches.

Thanks man! Can't wait to get my second PCB built with zealiostotles. I kinda want to see if I can get a steel plate from someone. Hell even another housing would be awesome.
