OK Thanks for replies... HotKillerZzz can you say something more on contact me on some fb or mail? I need to know how to make this firmware preferably with posibility to use any processor.. i dont know which i will be using... I want to in the end make two handed controler working as computer and mouse to play lol ... or some other game so it must be programmable... in other words how do you make macro keys? Oh and do you know some cheap switches ( they could be other than for key board... I want to make the keyebord form kill switches as second keyboard project) ok anyway back to the topic Teensy is quite impossible to get where i live.... so i will need to program it from base...

There are plenty of cheap Teensy substitutes from China, although they seem to be a bit more clumsy in use.
Buying a couple of cheap keyboards for parts is probably the fastest and easiest way to get many of the pieces that you will need.

Sorry but i thought in such a phase i should stay off programming so i decided to use a matrix of a working keyboard... maybe then ill still need some usb host knowlege on base level but it will be for future... Another one i here... will a killswitch keyboard do? and have anybody ever used typewriter skeleton to make a keyboard?
