Greetings from Switzerland
« on: Thu, 07 July 2016, 17:29:18 »
Hello from the center of Europe !,

I am relatively new to the (seducing) world of mechanical keyboards, mostly I am more interested in designing some circuits than really purchasing one, I will keep y'all updated if I do something one day  ;D

So far I only own one device, a Pok3r II that I use at my office, and of course, it is the best keyboard I have ever used  :p

BTW, I really like the site and everything going on here !

Speak soon !

Welcome to Geekhack!

I wonder how much longer you will be the centre of Europe mumble UK mumble.  Yes, I know, EU rather than Europe, but the way things are going ... ;) :p

If you've been designing PCBs, there's a thread for that!

If not, what kind of circuits are you designing/

"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

Wow, thanks for the link, well I've never designed a keyboard circuit, however, it is on my to do list, I just work in the electronic area and design PCBs from time to time.

Thank you ! I am using MX-Clears, they are really confortable in my opinion. In the future I would like to try others of course.

You're welcome to post pictures of any PCB in that thread, not just keyboard ones :)
