Hi! It is my first post in this community in Lemmy. I just wanted to show my ortholinear KB. It is a KpRepublic BM40 (plank-like) with Cherry Brown switches.

I built it 8 months ago and I love it, for every day work and for working elsewhere beacause it is very easy to carry in my backpack.

I hope you like it.

Don't remerber exactly, because despite I build it some months ago, the pieces I bougot them almost a year ago. Anyways here it is an estimation:

1 PCB KpRepublic BM40: 45€
50 Gateron Brown Switches: 15€
48 keycaps XDA: 25€
1 Aluminium case for BM40: 25€
1 Carbon fiber plate for BM40: 10€

So, around 120€. I mean, it is not cheap, but I am really happy with the result. But I am sure it is not toe most expensive thing you can find into this rabbithole 😂
