Title: Greetings from LISP keyboard enthusiast
Post by: lispnick on Sun, 14 March 2021, 12:05:49
Hi guys, this is lispnick!

I am the designer and maker of the Keymacs A620N keyboard. I am not a typical keyboard geek but few years ago my admiration for LISP machines inspired me to recreate the classic new-style Symbolics keyboard and I have discovered the realm of custom mechanical keyboards!

What started as a hobby project turned into a venture that very much changed my life. I am not going to repeat my story here (those interested can find my posts on Deskthority), but I would like to share my experience with the manufacuring process in this forum.

Hi lispnick. Welcome to Geekhack.

I have no idea what the heck that keyboard is, but it looks cool.

I imagine you'll fit right in here. I haven't made a Deskthority account (yet) but it seems like this place is better suited to crazy engineering projects ... besides maybe the whole Alps part of that Keymacs board of yours.
