Question: If it is possible to make a keyboard like this?
« on: Tue, 07 April 2015, 18:01:58 »
Hi, I want to make a keyboard with this layout, if it is possible?


If the answer is posative, whether the GH60 PCB support it or not?


Thanks.

Thanks.

FTFY, use the actual image links not the imgur preview links.

Also that layout is possible if you made your own board but not possible on the GH60.

People in the 1980s, in general, were clearly just better than we are now in every measurable way.

The dumber the reason the more it must be done

I still do not figure out where goes wrong, the GH60 seems like support this one? Is this barbecue the Fn key's position is not fit for the PCB?

The issue is the 1.25u directly to the left of the Fn.

That's a cool layout.

Another issue you would have is finding key caps for it

Shouldn't be too hard with all of the DSA options available. I know granite has most if not all of those sizes / keys.

You are right, just bought the Granite set from Massdrop.
