Mako 69 V2 is now out!!! Link: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4967096This is my own variation of a DIY mechanical keyboard, it is based on the Mech 104 but I have changed things such as design and more.
This keyboard features 75 keys in total complete with Fn keys.
The one in the photo has a non-working spacebar so I had to redesign it, other than that the entire keyboard works fine.
This keyboard also uses cherry compatible stabilizers such as the Durock V2 plate mounted stabilizers and Cherry compatible switches, such as Gatreon switches.
For the Microcontroller an Arduino Pro Micro will have just enough gpio ports to accommodate all the wiring, it needs in total 20 IO ports. -------------------------- FOR PARTS LIST SCROLL DOWN --------------------- Switches: Cherry compatible switches such as Gatreons (I used these) Stabilizers: Cherry compatible Stabilizers such as Durock V2 Keycaps: Cherry Stem compatible keycaps I used TBKB gray blue keycaps Nuts and bolts: M4 screws such as M412 and M425 (May change so just get 5-6 more than needed) For these M412 you need 4 in total and 2 M425 (May change so just get 5-6 more than needed) What to print? Download the WHAT_TO _PRINT.txt file and read scroll down to the update log to see what you want to print, the update log will explain most new parts in detail. Note: Some parts are modular so you can choose what type you want.Additional notes: I will update a better version soon with more screw holes for extra stability and larger pieces, and the ugly side hump will disappear.
In this version I have gotten rid of all logos and text except the Mako 69 plate, their is a blank version for people who want to customize it. Another thing to note is that you can draw up a pattern and print it, then glue it on the extended side piece to decorate it dimensions are included, dimensions are 2.8 by 13.5 cm
THE MAKO 69 SIDE PLATE NEEDS TO BE GLUED ON AND THE BACK SUPPORT PEICE NEEDS TO ALSO BE GLUED ON AT THE SIDES TO HELP IT STAY IN PLACE.
INFO ON ASSEMBLY: The Mako 69 side plate needs to be glued on and the screws do not need to go in fully if you use M4*12 as it will be secure enough
