Title: Re-purposed programmable matrix keyboard for CNC machine
Post by: DreaMagine on Wed, 08 June 2016, 13:30:31

Found a blog post of a guy who re-purposed a programmable matrix keyboard for his CNC machine!
I thought it was a neat little project, and I very much approve of him actually making his own PCB for the new controller inside it.

That's a good project, thanks for the link :)

Haven't heard of the controller he's using, if it has built in transistors for LEDs it could be worth a look.
