Keyboard Builders' Digest // Issue #175
Check out this week's editorial with awesome projects, tips, ideas, meetups, discount codes, etc!
Hey y'all,
Here are some of the posts I thought were worth sharing this time:
-
The Magger 68 HE is a solid 65% Hall-effect keyboard, staying true to Luminkey's philosophy of crafting finely tuned, quality products. Magnetic switches and features are more for gamer folks, but the Magger still has the aura of higher-end enthusiast boards.
-
This Bird, a monoblock split trackball keyboard by Protieusz, is a modification of the Crowboard, originally designed by Alex Miller.
-
Andreas Tacke shared his Nomad, a 7x5 keys low-profile split with per-key RGB.
-
Rasmus Koit's Pipar is a wireless split keyboard that uses a dongle while running ZMK.
-
A wireless monoblock split by seblov: the 40-key MonoSeb40.
-
Solanum is a 34-key diodeless split keyboard designed by Travis Mick.
-
The Hammerhead42 by Armin Anderson is a unibody split keyboard with a 40mm trackpad and a joystick.
-
OverLord is another monoblock split keyboard by Protieusz -- with 2 trackballs and 2 MCUs on a single PCB.
-
Ken Choi's Treble is a 42-key low-profile wireless monoblock keyboard.
As always: much more projects and resources in my weekly (sort of) editorial write-up, MK meetup calendar and keyboard shop database - with 500+ keyboard vendors!
