I've modded or built at least a dozen keyboards by now and still pry each switch open by hand to lube. Is there a better, inexpensive/diy way to achieve the same results?

If I wasn't consumed by working full time then bed/bath renovation until bedtime, I'd be done by now.

https://diykeyboards.com/featured-products/product/55-the-switchcracker-2%E2%84%A2

is what i use, pretty cheap and effective, can open about 90 switches in about 4 minutes or so.

also used to use

https://mechanicalkeyboards.com/shop/index.php?l=product_detail&p=1363

but that was a bigger pain.

if you care about aesthetics

https://kbdfans.cn/collections/keyboard-part/products/gb-2-in-1-machined-aluminum-switch-opener

or

https://kiiboss.studio/

The switch cracker works well I take it? No issues? Does it work with Kailh as well?

yup, works great for me, just remove the mx prongs and use the box prongs which are the same for most kailh switches. used them to remove my halos just fine.

Did everyone get an actual tracking number? Paid my shipping invoice about two weeks ago, but no word since then. Don't want to pester him directly about it.

I paid and it took about a week or so before I got a tracking. Took about another week before the tracking started working. Currently, mine is still just in label created but carrier hasn't received a package yet. I paid my shipping invoice same day (apr 21).

he updates in paypal when he ships. Do log in your paypal account and check the Jane invoice, he might have updated there and paypal did not send an email.

My past TGR boards have been through aramex, but I've used 17track reliably in the past to track them.

Just to clarify a little further -- Aramex often passes it over UPS in the United States.

Other regions, I'm not sure! 17track.net is definitely good to check if you aren't sure what carrier is being used.

Mine came through Aramex and then was handed off to UPS once it reach the US. Took some time for my tracking to start working after I received it but once it reached the courier, it took about 5 days.

Does anyone use their Jane PCB with MacOS? I seem to be unable to get mine working on mac. It works fine when I test it on my windows machine but I see it connect but no keycodes seem to be sent when I'm attached on my mac. I've tried moving to a direct USB port without much luck either.

Hey, Bootmapper on MacOS isn't able to detect the PCB (MBP 2016 15" in my case). You will need to use Windows for that. I am sending you the instructions to firm up and mapping. Thank you.

Havent built mine yet but will be using it on MacOS as well. Can you also send me the instructions? Or will flashing it on Windows with Bootmapper be sufficient?

To firm up
Open Bootmapper Client > Options > Firm UP (Select .hex File) > Select this file https://www.dropbox.com/s/seavbp25ci2g8g2/ps2avrGB_NKRO.hex?dl=0

To flash the keymap
Open Bootmapper Client > Options > Firm UP (Select .hex File) > Select this file https://www.dropbox.com/s/vnwsgfhds4ydv3c/keymap_jane.hex?dl=0

To edit the keymap
Open Bootmapper Client > Key Mapper > Download > Change the keys > check "Reboot after uploading" > Upload

You will need to boot into Windows if the Bootmapper on MacOS isn't detecting the PCB. Thanks!

How's the color difference between everyone's the top and bottom halves? Mine is a bit off but I'm not sure if I'm being overly picky or not.

that seems about the same as my alice, and largely due to the lighting of that room

most silver is clear ano, so it will match nearly 100% of the time

because the parts are two different sizes and shapes, there will be some slight variation in the colors

pretty much every board i've owned has had a little variation
