I’m excited to use my first post on Lemmy to share an update about the design and some renders of the next version of my Mantis keyboard. I ordered the PCBs, plates and 3D-printed key caps this week. I’m hoping to assemble the first prototype within the next two weeks.

Lots of firsts for me: 3D printing, laser cutting, RGB LEDs. I’m really hoping that I didn’t make some big mistake that can’t be fixed with a drill and some bodge wires …
