Title: KBD87 v1 pcb replacement
Post by: killermax on Thu, 30 July 2020, 03:23:37

Need Help!

I need a replacement for my kbd87. I've asked kbdfans for help but he doesnt seem to have any spare left. He says the v2 does not fit the v1 case.

Does anyone know any other 3rd party boards that fits the case? Anything that is qmk compatible will do. A hotswapable switch will be great.

Thanks for the help!

What happened to the first PCB?  Might be easier to repair it than to desolder all the switches...

Hi

1. Its my first project so soldering was done quite badly.
2. Built it with stealios before it was announced that they are fake tealios.
3. You need to hard press some switches for it to work.

Any ideas on a pcb replacement?
