Check out the new issue with awesome projects, tips and ideas!


Hey y'all,

Here are the posts I thought were worth sharing this week:

  1. A nice ortho keyboard called keezyboost40 designed by sporewoh who published the PCB.

  2. A Skeletyl variant by blackanode with top and side mount add-on options.

  3. Lovekb built Victor Lucachi's VOID Ergo S, a handwired split with open-source case files.

  4. Ajisai is a 58-key handwired monoblock wireless build by DCharlo.

  5. A handwired fullsize southpaw keyboard by u/bull_nz.

  6. Cipulot's EC60 is an open-source universal 60% Electrostatic Capacitive (EC) PCB.

  7. Hackaday launched a Cyberdeck Contest with prizes offered by Digi-Key.

  8. A custom 3D printed Sofle case with underglow – shared by _vastrox_.

  9. Lilium is a Lily58 case family by DCharlo.

  10. bull_nz made 3D printed rubber inserts for clicky switches that kill the down-clack and add pop.

  11. A keyboard from the ESA Director of Operations bench spotted by evil_noodles.

  12. The unique ergoLogic keyboard with adjustable tenting angle – posted by datnarwhal4.

  13. 0x17 turned a vintage Amstrad NC100 notebook into a cyberdeck.

  14. A strange abomination christened Spaxial, a peculiar angled unibody keyboard by keycashcow. I like it a lot.
