Title: ceramic (clay) bakeneko65!
Post by: PlayBox on Sun, 11 December 2022, 15:47:22
(DISCLAIMER: the post is still work in progress so expect changes to make it nicer)

Reasons behind this project and overall conceptions

i have access to ceramic tools and clay so i thought why not make a ceramic keyboard? no one ever made this before to my knowledge and after thinking about this i think its a pretty doable thing. the overall conceptions are im gonna be building off an open source bakeneko65 keyboard plate pcb and files, im gonna be using a low shrinkage clay to make this keyboard and the walls are gonna be much thicker than in a normal bakeneko for ease of makikng it.

project time line:


finding exact dimensions - soon (image with these will be posted) (DONE)

making the keyboard - later (images also posted)

baking it raw -even later (sorry if i used the wrong words  :) )

making the final product - you gonna wait for this (im gonna post the poll about what colour should it be)

i think you liked the post for now updates will be posted later

Wow! :thumb: It's great to see someone who has the same thoughts as me, I studied ceramics in college. I really want to make a ceramic keyboard, but I am still working on some technical problems.

I think there was a ceramic GB that never finished. I know others will remember it. The guy disappeared. Green something was his name.
