First custom keyboard build! And the keycaps match my favorite VS Code theme 😂

Very nice
Asliceofsamuel OP t1_j8bfmkm wrote
Thanks! It was a huge upgrade from the Cypher and Razer mechanical keyboards I had used years ago. Really digging the feel of the combination between the WS switches and the ePBT keycaps--super soft feeling but not mushy, etc.

I just looked those switches up and that's exactly my speed. I made custom and used lubed MX browns that have a very similar sound. I went with ABD cherry profiles. Once I finalize my design I'm going to spring for some similar caps in pbt.

Awesome! Can’t wait to see your build!

Still gotta put another layer or white on the case and a coat of matte clear but it's almost there. Also gonna tape mod, foam, and a put a layer of neoprene on the bottom. It's 3D printed and hand wired 65%.

I recently built mine, though I can't get it to be recognised by via. Any luck with yours connecting?
Asliceofsamuel OP t1_j8brae9 wrote
Hmm, yeah mine seemed to connect without hassle/any additional setup. Have you checked the troubleshooting guides in the Meletrix Discord? The info there (or somebody in the Discord) might have an idea of what’s not working and/or how to reset things

How are you liking the Zoom TKL?
Asliceofsamuel OP t1_j8d4uv2 wrote
I have been really enjoying it so far! The quality of materials is great and it was a joy to put together. Even without the internal weight (which is shipping later) it’s got a great heft to it. The typing angle is very comfortable, even without a wrist rest as well!
