usually i do this for actively used units after few months (subjective; depending on how dirty the plate/pcb surfaces are):
1. take out key caps and wash them with ultrasonic cleaner + warm water + dental cleanser tablet;
2. use brush to sweep weird stuff out of plate/pcb surfaces (do this out-door); use wet cloth to clean it up again;
3. use brush to sweep the internal of case;
4. reinstall everything.

the more frequent one are step 1 and 2 (subjective also; depending on how dirty they look)

for key caps, i wash and dry them before putting them back into their box/bag/tray.

any unit to reccomend?

lol.. things ppl to make it keyboard to sound a certain way :-)
Can partially move this into ''hobbies' section tongue.gif


Btw, any prebuilt 60% to recco? HotSwap, RGB
Wanted to get the RK84, but keycaps for the bottom right few either hard to get or costs more than standard layout.


On AP2 now btw
TIA

going down the rabbit hole

why is south facing PCB so impt? I see only 1 benefit is of Cherry profile keycaps compatibility.
Manufacturers can remove RGB from PCB and save $ since most user wanting the south facing layout not using the RGB feature?

Going live in just under 9 hours. If I wasn't already in the middle of a build, I'd probably get this...

Layout is awesome, big knob, QMK. Yummy.

that's in category no. 3. most recent kits from cn are in that category. it's fine if via is good enough for you, and you're not using qmk to modify its features.

for instance, i add winlock, and use rgb led for underglow as caps lock indicator also. (like kbd75 rev2, which is the pcb for kbd75v3 and v3.1)

edit: official via support for simpler64 is still in progress. i have modified mine to make the led under capslock to work as capslock indicator. if you had the same pcb, just add the following in your keymap.c:

CODE

/* capslock; start; */
#ifdef RGB_MATRIX_ENABLE
__attribute__ ((weak))
void rgb_matrix_indicators_user(void) {
   if (host_keyboard_led_state().caps_lock)     {
       rgb_matrix_set_color(28, 0xFF, 0xFF, 0xFF);
   }
}
#endif
/* capslock; end; */


the outcome:

Hi, may I know if it's possible to do this with via/vial/qmk confiq?
I'm just dipping my feet into qmk, no knowledge of coding.

Spent a few days just reading on nuances of modtap and miryoku/colemak

PCB. Main 1.5mm plate. Top 2 layers. Still need to do 2nd 3mm plate (acrylic is not strong enough to stand on its own. PE foam. Bottom 2 layers.

noob ques on keycaps
is it only those flat profile keycaps suitable like xda/dsa

There's also KAM and SA R3.

Or you can go for blanks, or GMK Dots or any other meaningless symbols.

Or go for the meme classic
