GH60 is a custom programmable mechanical keyboard designed for the geekhack community.

Project status

Here are the main steps necessary to complete the project:

Gathering ideas and requestsfree chat about what we want the keyboard to feature

Electrical designpreparation of the schematic and board layout

Production of prototype and prototypinggetting a batch of prototypes produced and testing for errors

Fixing errors in revision "A" PCBdeciding about switch orientation, fixing minor component placement errors

Tweaking for manufacturemaking sure we're using parts available to the fab house and choosing substitutes

Collecting money

Production

Production of the final prototype

Verification and minor corrections
