Over the last month or so I got heavily into designing and building handwired keyboards and in this photo is every one I’ve made in that time. I’ve been forced to slow down a bit but soon will have something I think you will find very interesting. I don’t want to say too much about it but the one thing I will say is: DB15.

You can also find all my boards along with their 3D print case files and source for free on GitHub.

I also make a lot of videos on my boards and various topics related to them over on YouTube.

certainly but I wouldn't underestimate it. it's powerful enough to distract you 24/7 and pull you in the weirdest rabbit hole for a long, long time and not much better than online gambling, porn or other obsessions. if can you make any money out of it great, if not you might want to take better care of yourself

and we both know it's not over the last month alone but much longer. not saying, one cannot design/print/build that bunch of keyboards in one month but it takes way longer to develop your taste and go ("mentally") from staggered to ortho to merged-splits layouts

btw, you should learn pcb design with kicad, you could create way more keyboards with much less work haha

however the photo of you and the keyboards is actually very nice! ❤️
