Thank you :)

I’ve been trying to sell prints of the cases/plates to fund the project over at scottokeebs.com if you’re interested.

I ordered some RP2040 boards today with the intention of making something larger than I normally do.

Now that I think of it I guess I could be considered handwired to some degree since I wear an insulin pump with tubing lol

Luckily I had a lot of stuff from the past few years being in the hobby that I was able to repurpose.

The downside is that all my other boards are now empty lol

Thanks :)

You should definitely give it a go, I think you’ll find it very rewarding. I have an entire video on how to build them: https://youtu.be/hjml-K-pV4E

I’m working on another video right now that will go over some more advanced techniques.

You have no idea how factual your statement is.

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.

I released it today if you are interested. For transparency sake, the prices did change a tiny bit but I still think they are reasonable for what's included.

I’ve looked into it a bit. A big reason I use the copper wire is that it kinda holds the whole build together, hotswap would probably be a bit flimsy.

I’ll have to look into that. The fees for this on Etsy are only about $11. A big reason I stick with that platform though is that I don’t have to pay for marketing/ads, the platform kinda does it for me.

The shipping part does suck though, I have to basically just factor that out of any profit because without their “free shipping guarantee” you get placed worse in search.
