I've been so busy with work since I got back from Nashville, and the weather sucked too much to go out taking pictures most days. Still I got a few snaps, even if they're pretty crummy, most of them.


I cheated. It's a photo dump post!

I cheated. It's a photo dump post!

I haven't done one of these for ages because I like posts to be a bit more coherent, but I don't have the motivation (or sufficient content) for that so here's some snaps so that I don't have to do 3 Friday posts in a row. That'd be embarrassing.


Overkill

I've wanted an excuse to use a Pelican case for something for ages. I got a mini one with my ACS headphones years ago and I love how official and purposeful they are.

I genuinely don't see how I could improve on this.


How do you type numbers though?

How do you type numbers though?

Having spent a week back on a "normal" 65% board, I have concluded that these tiny, weirdo split boards are the best and I'm probably done exploring keyboards for now. Here's now I use them.

There's been a long wait for this one, but it was so worth it.


Wireless crkbd with JLC Nylon plate and case

Wireless crkbd with JLC Nylon plate and case

I am determined to get used to a Choc setup. It's definitely getting there with this.


crkbd LP 3x5

crkbd LP 3x5

This is essentially an LP Corne version of my Skeletyl, and I am very into it but I still haven't found Kailh Choc switches that I like.


Making a working <= 36 key layout

Making a working <= 36 key layout

The pursuit of minimalism in keyboard layouts is as much an exercise in programming muscle memory as it is indulging Gear Acquisition Syndrome. Making a usable layout on something that only has a few more keys than the English alphabet has letters is pretty tricky.

Never thought I'd be able to do something like this, but once you can connect a wire to something, and you get the theory, it's fairly straightforward to build.

I've wanted to build one of these for ages but every time I looked it's been out of stock.


Bento!

Bento!

As soon as I built this case, the first thing I wanted to do was take this picture.


Little Keyboards Reviung41

Little Keyboards Reviung41

I've wanted one of Little Keyboards' kits for ages, but they were always a bit spenny. This Reviung41 Comptroller case was actually pretty reasonable. Especially for the quality.

I've been going through a phase of writing a lot recently. Work's been pleasantly busy - lots of smaller, fun tasks to work on doing things I don't get to do a lot. We've got something big starting soon so it's always nice to get stuff done before I need to get my head down.


IMK Corne

IMK Corne

I've been waiting to build a Corne ever since Perkins told me about how much he loves his. He got his free because he's a big deal, but I had to pay for mine because I am no deal at all.

An in-stock keycap set? What is happening?!


Quefrency rev2 X SM Keyboards rebuild

Quefrency rev2 X SM Keyboards rebuild

I love the Quefrency layout, but I messed up using unlubed Zealios in my original build. It's a nice switch but it's so noisy.

I've wanted a macropad for ages, and the timing was right on this one so I've gone for it! Screen; check, rotary; check, stacked acrylic; check. It also has LEDs and a piezo buzzer! Looking forward to annoying the entire world with that one.


A very slow couple of weeks

A very slow couple of weeks

This has been one of the slowest months of my life. The more I tried to get done, the more got piled on, the more frantic I got!

Lots of pictures of me on my phone the last couple of weeks. I think I might finally be going insane.
