Hi, Im freakSTATIC.
Im pretty new to this scene, though I have had (basic) experience in a little coding, networking and hacking through living with a bunch of hackers a long time ago, but it was about 10 years ago so Ive lost a lot of that knowledge - Ive never gone into peripheral modification.
I came across this site after getting frustrated that there was no keyboard for sale in way that I needed it for my illustration work - so decided to design exactly what I needed. At first I was willing to commission someone as I knew very little in this area- now Im delving into the world of modification myself as Im always thirsty for knowledge, I just had no idea where to start with this. Its a learning curve! However the information on this site is helping me in learning what I need in order to make what I need. Im quite excited to be finding out so much about keyboard modification!
- currently Im just sourcing the items I need such as broken keyboards to practice on and tools like soldering/desoldering equipment for rewiring and knowledge in a bit of coding so I can reprogram my prototypes.
