Title: Hello GH, I am maydaym3
Post by: maydaym3 on Sun, 07 February 2016, 23:49:36

Some of you might have seen my current project on /r/mk, The 79 key TKL  (http://i.imgur.com/WWXAAys.jpg). Thought I'd finally introduce myself to the community, 25 year old physics and mechanical engineering student in Washington taking a year off to pursue personal projects like above and not be poor :-P.
I've been working on this project since last march by myself investing my own money into capital and starting from concept of idea to design and reaching out to local manufacturing for most parts. Now i'm looking to get some advice on moving forward with the project.

Welcome to Geekhack!

That's an interesting layout!  I've seen backwards keyboards before (arrow cluster and numpad on the left), and keyboards with a numpad but no arrow keys, but not the two combined!  Still makes my head spin though, with the number on the "wrong" side :))

Your best bet for finding advice is probably to create a thread in making stuff together (https://geekhack.org/index.php?board=117.0) with a few pictures and some words, and see what sort of response you get.
