Creators! Feel free to tip me off about your keyboard related projects to bring them to 100K readers.

The left side has the microcontroller and the right side has an IO expander. The firmware and soldering was a bit more involved than two microcontrollers but "it was fun to learn and debug".

I am a bit fan of wood for keyboards. It adds a nice weight, feel and acoustics in addition to looking great. It is more limited in what you can do though.

Build guide and firmware to be shared later.
