[Vendor] [Orders close today!] ErgoMechKeyboards made this keyboard a reality: 4c (formerly chocboard) DIY kits now available!

Headsup! Orders for first batch close tonight at midnight (CDT)

(4c) DIY kits are now open for orders on compression keyboards!

I have been designing and fine tuning the (4c) since late 2022, and am excited to share this product with the world. This first batch will be an extremely limited run.

Orders will be shipped out beginning in just 3 weeks from today 7/25/23.

Note: if you are purchasing the (4c) PCB kit, please check out our wiki for information on building a (4c) and uploading a custom layout! There is also a build guide video that takes you through all the soldering and assembly directions of the (4c) and its accompanying case.

With regards to cases, you can also purchase a 3D printed (4c) case from compression keyboards and they will ship out alongside the PCB kits. In addition, if you have your own 3D printer you can print your own case by heading to the wiki for files and more information.

The wiki with details on part selection, building, design files, and compiling firmware is here: https://compressionkeyboards.com/blogs/wiki

travel case has become magnetic, its almost the footprint of a phone. Magnetic wrist rest accessory anyone?

Thanks to everyone on the subreddit (now lemmy community!) that encouraged me to pursue making these real! I'm so happy to be giving back to the community and making these designs available to everyone on Github.

  • That's a really interesting case design too! Cool to see that you're taking into account that one might bring it into the office or so and needs a "travel" case as well.

    • Thanks! The travel case came from that exact need for myself. It packs up so well now that I don't leave the house without it.

      My hope is that with the design files released could see other keyboards with similar case designs! As well as others using the magnets embedded into the case for other accessories like wrist rests.
