Getting into custom keyboards?
It starts with a simple question: why do people care so much about keyboards?
Then you discover layouts, layers, switches, ergonomics.
Suddenly typing isn’t just typing — it’s a system you can optimize.
Welcome to the rabbit hole.

I don't have any low-profile keyboards (besides my laptops). Strongly considering getting this just because. Actually I do have a shitty SIIG one from years ago, but this is a Keek. And I'm a Keek Geek! #mechanicalkeyboard #mechanicalkeyboards #mechkeys
Good news: Even though my new #ErgoMechKeyboard design uses 16mm vertical spacing, both my Choc v1 Chicago Stenographer #keycaps and my (preferred) Choc v1 KLP Lamé saddle (#3DPrinted at JLCPLC in resin) work just fine. I was worried I'd not be able to use this new #MechanicalKeyboard without ordering some even more niche minimal-y spaced keycaps. l'll get some matching 1.5u wide caps done at some point...
Bad news: Broke the stem of yet another doing the swap - these things are fragile! Push from below, don't pull!
I Ditched Razer for a 4-Year-Old Keyboard (And You Should Too)

It was a ton of work--mostly printing keycaps--but I got those Crisco keyboards for sorting used vinyl records by condition done for a customer. There's a lot to be said for a client who actually cares about the project (unlike some of the translation projects I've done).
