I dont know about soarer's method, but hasu's compiled code only compatible with teensy 2.0/++, and only use around 76% of memory. Need a really good programmer to port to teensy 3. I did notice blink method in tmk keyboard, I'll try to take a look on that, though dont really put your hope too high because my programming is meeeh.

So far what possible with teensy (hasu's method)
- full nkro, but need to enable everytime disconnected
- full led by cheating the layer (not really a good method, but it work)

edit: You're a student and I'm a jobless grad, so yeah on money, but maybe I can donate a little for the prototype if you need it. Not much but wth 

Easier to just get Taobao PCB fabs to make for you.
Just supply the necesary files.

Printing your own PCB isn't hard especially with UV. Beats the ferric chloride method.
But good luck drilling those holes. You would have to deal with a few drill bit sizes, and alignment might be an issue. It's not your everyday undergraduate electronics project.

Just pay the money and get the China people to do for you.

@faridr
What's your problem with the spec sheet again?
Reading spec sheet I do that a lot. Writing firmwares...maybe not.

Got EE background also no use.
These kind of things, if you don't do it, you don't know.

You can ask many EE, they gonna stare blank if you ask them how to control Leds individually. Myself included.

I'm not sure whether you can do a QFR-I. My advice is to start small. Or you can use Proteus to simulate.

0168257061I asked GON for that quote for the 38gt+plate combo I was talking about.
After doing some math, that's still about $10 cheaper than ordering from the Sprit GB(aluminium plate, pcb pre, switches and LEDs, fully tuned and assembled).

Gotta save up now. 

because the gap is assembly charges.

Sticker, lube, solder, test, tune, program...

You think easy?

On the other hand, I'll never let anyone do it for me because I like doing it.

IMO, RM140 is a decent price to charge for all that. It'll take 2-3 hours for an experienced electrician to solder that many switches and test them all out.

The commands for camera look has changed somewhat. I can't remember the exact commands anymore, gotta go home see my autoexec file.

OK... Then, I should avoid it. I am disappointed, I really like the "looks" of it.

Anyway, any good from CM Storm?
CM Storm QuickFire XT-Stealth, http://gaming.coolermaster.com/en/products...rds/xt_stealth/
CM Storm QuickFire Ultimate, http://gaming.coolermaster.com/en/products...ckfireultimate/
These two have any big problem like the Corsair K70??

I would prefer LED MKBs that without fancy buttons everywhere... Any suggestions?

Thanks!

are u freaking kidding me?! backlit topre capacitive for below 500? SOS

what kailh topre?

i have 28awg also which is thinner and softer.
yukihatsu, you want me to use 26awg or 28awg?

ugh this world cup fever is taking a toll on my cable making...fall asleep after getting back from work 

Don't be cheap. Spend the money and buy a real man's keyboard.

HHKB lite 2 is a membrane keyboard.
So, your end game is no more mechanical but u back to membrane keyboard.
Ok.

HHKB lite is membrane bro... Get the pro.

Real man's keyboard is Topre/Buckling Spring. Topre is like typing on REAL cloud of bewbs. So soft and yet so bouncy and responsive.
Agree. Browns is like my bare minimum now until lightsaver arrives.
Hehehe... Up to you bro... When you want it, lemme know.
Can't help you two. Besides, Topre needs 2 weeks to go from "Errr...." to "Hnngggghh OMGWTFBBQ whyamisostupidtonothavetriedthisi'llneverneedanotherkeyboard"

Leopold<Typeheaven<Realforce~HHKB

I put realforce and HHKB together because I hate 60% boards and I like my winkeys (multitaskers FTW!). Any questions?

p/s: already have a Realforce.

Lousy keycaps.

(y)

Novatouch will have even lousier keycaps. Ok maybe just as bad as typeheaven.

Only logical thing to do with a novatouch is to buy it, harvest the stems, and say hello to realforce+MX keycaps. Hnggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

this set need how much ?
rm1k++??
ures?
omg its sweet!

somebody mentioned potato?
