Title: uKb - a small keypad with an encoder
Post by: afferscheim on Tue, 09 March 2021, 15:06:47

Hey all,

Here is a small overview of a small project I've been working on:

It's basically a keypad (8x2) with a fat rotary encoder on the side, I intend to use it to compliment my 60% keyboard.

Here is a basic render :

I'm still working on the mechanics, need to round up some corners here and there to make it nicer.

Feedbacks are welcome !

Cool concept! I think it would look nicer if the margins were slightly larger.

Thanks ! I'll try it out to see which one looks more interesting
