More to come as i get this all uploaded and sorted out

As I said in TheDroppelganger summary (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4271448) I love my Drop CTRL - and if i was a very rich man, i would own all the variants...but i'm not...so I did the next best thing and designed a handwired version of the Drop Alt 67% keyboard. I also went with the high profile variant this time as well.

My intention this time was to glue-up the individual parts; then sand and fill the print and paint it. I wanted it to look a little more finished, and to see if I could make it look like something I purchased. Let me know if it was successful.

Parts List: Forthcoming

  • Teensy 2.0 (available all over the place - amazon.com, pjrc.com)
  • 67 switches of your choice
  • Cherry Plate Mount TKL stabilizer kit
  • 67x IN4148 diodes - you can get 100 pack on Amazon for just a few dollars
  • (Optional) 2x 3mm LEDs and appropriate resistors
  • USB B Mini cable (for the teensy - other boards and controllers may have USB b micro, or USB C)
  • 8x M4x12mm screws (socket insert cap screws) to attach the top to the bottom.
  • Keycaps, i used DSA profile to keep the keyboard feeling small, lowercase legends help extend that feeling
