Been thinking of doing this for over a year and finally got round to it. Found parts. Spent hours soldering, lubricating, stuffing with foam and programming QMK. So happy with the final result. It’s a joy to use.

Gateron yellow switches. YMDK PCB, backplate and case. Ali Express keycaps.

It’s a budget build and none of this is high end…but it has still worked out really well.

      it really is the one thing I cannot go back on.
