Well, that’s a bit hard to nail down, the board is not for sale yet so, I’m not sure the price is nailed down. The plate is laser cut acrylic I got on special from elecrow for $4. The Keboardio keycaps were on sale for $5 a set for the alps version. I went cheap and got Matias clicky switches (alps clones), $40 for 200. I also used half a roll of filament for the case, about $20, and screws I had on hand. All in, disregarding prototype cases, around $280 to $300.

Thanks! So, I don’t remember the scroll ring part number but sadek designed all the electronics.

@sadekbaroudi do you know the part number offhand?

I may not have tagged him correctly, I need to figure out how to do that on lemmy.

Your best bet would be to look at the datasheets for the OLED or RBGs you want to use. I think most RGBs that are addressable that are commonly used are 5v

Right now, on base layer, volume and left-right scroll

Fpm101 build by Sadek Baroudi (fingerpunch kb), case designed and 3D printed by me. It uses keyboardio key caps and has matias clicky alps clones. It has a scroll ring around the trackball also!

Can’t wait to use lemmy!
