Yeah, but still usable, not a big deal to me. OTOH the arrow keys are completely out of wack.

Look again, I fucked up the SECOND row. I put a stab down for r-shift, that meant I had to use the larger Shift key, and thus I decided to put the arrows in like that. Which I really like and I am going to do it again.

Are you more dead inside now?

Want me to roll the arrow keys straight up the right hand side?

Polarity Works BT65 V2 PCB, KPrepublic XD68 low rise case, keycaps are...Idobao sakura or something? And I used some NK Cream Box switches I had lying around.

I needed some practice soldering, and I wanted to try a plateless build. Did not fit well. I had to dremel off one of the standoffs on the case so I could fir the battery that came with the PCB.

Looks cool, I found the ZMK tools super finnecky to work with and fam, it sounds like ass. It's like typing on a trashcan. But I wanted to see if foam and such was really just a meme.

So how do you use the left control key? ;) Surely that would hit the bezel unless it's a really low profile board. Sticking out over the bezel really really triggers me LOL

Deathnote_Blockchain OP t1_jc9lpx7 wrote

It's a low-profile case and those are DSA profile caps, so no problems with it hitting the bezel.

It's really fucked up looking isnt it?
