Here are my boards, id like to get a TKL or a 60%/75% board soon, but they are so hard to find with iso layout tho :wacko:

 

Pok3r or Ducky Mini are available in ISO layout I think. But it might still be hard to find one, and on top of that it'll be expensive ><

Does anyone have a new Corsair K70?   Would be interested to share software woes, or even get some tips on how to program it.

you need diodes for wiring switches resistors would be for the leds.

I use 1N4148 diodes for my keyboards

random links to hand wiring stuff

Ok, thanks, and what goes into programing the teensy for the keyboard layout?

Here is a pretty good guide on using the tmk firmware: https://deskthority.net/workshop-f7/how-to-build-your-very-own-keyboard-firmware-t7177.html

Thanks. 

The chair is nothing fancy.  Got it from Amazon http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00E97HKAI?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00

 

What color LZ-GH you got?

Black the only real color for GH themed build.

LoL. I guess black would make more sense. Although I'd love to get my hands on one the blue ones.

I've basically had it planned since I knew I got into the GB. Took ~1.5 years to get all the parts then just sat there as I didn't have time. This would be why @Charger has it now.

Just noticed that a 120 pack of gateron switches only costs 26.5£ on Amazon uk. Too bad that they don't have an equivalent of cherry mx clears :(.

They do need 2x stabs they are just oriented vertically like on the numpad.
