I want a proper mech keyboard, but I can't be arsed building one. What do I do?
Specifications:
Full size (80ish+ size with a reduced numpad will also work)
ISO key layout (as in, a proper Return key. ANSI can burn)
Numpad
Wireless (if possible)
Don't need any RGB
I don't care about keycaps, so any leftovers will do. They don't even have to be representative of the actual key, random letters and symbols will be fine, even duplicates
When I wasbinto RC Helicopters i liked flying, but didn't get much entertainment feom building. This other guy liked building but didn't care that much about flying. I was hoping to run into someone similar here.
If you get a barebones board with a hotwap PCB you have to screw in stabilizers for all keys larger than 2u (=2 keys) - Shift, Enter, Backspace and Space.
Since you can't be arsed, screw lubing them. Just screw them in, takes 3 minutes.
Then, place all the switches on Plate and PCB and since they're hotswap you just press them in.
Then place like 8 gaskets or screws, drop on your PCB-Plate-Switch-Sandwitch, screw together top and bottom with 4 more screws.
When you're done, mount the caps, also just pop them in place.
That's it. I reckon it's about as much work as a 10$ Lego set.
But going prebuilt is far easier of course: Unpack, plug in, done. If you get a hotswap you can change switches later on if you fancy.
