Title: columnar/non-staggered keyboard self-made
Post by: cisum on Sat, 29 March 2008, 11:53:47

In the Colemak forum (http://forum.colemak.com/viewtopic.php?pid=2160#p2160) I described how I built my own columnar/non-staggered keyboard out of a Plum with the help of the Cherry ML keyswitches from a Cherry 4100 and the programmable keyboard encoder module KE-USB24 or TKC-8000/KC08000/KC8000 respectively. If you don't mind I request to post there instead of here so that all will stay together. If I would have known about geekhack before I probably would have started here.

Why would we care where you post?  ;)
