Handwired family reunion. It's like the tech-geek version of being an old man tying fishing flies in the basement. (media.kbin.social)

I think most of these have made their way to Fediverse at some point in the last year, but brought them all out for an end of year photo.

  • "Planck+3" ortholinear (3d-printed plate, maple base)
  • Experimental custom ortho split (3d printed)
  • Kiddo's macro pad (3d-printed from a Thingiverse download)
  • Custom Retro TKL (outsourced laser-cut plate, DIY wooden sides)
  • Same plate, but 3D printed sides and springs as flexible supports for the middle
  • Custom no-stabilizers mini-1800 style build with DIY laser dye-subbed keycaps. Plates and sides are home-lasered hardboard. feet and port cover are 3D printed.

Next project is using the last of the three TKL plates with a spray-painted, 3D-printed case.
