|

|
For now, take a look at the images and try to figure things out, I know
|
||
|
that's not great (it's better than nothing!)
|
||
|
|
||
|
** Making the PCB
|
||
|
|
||
|
Get two sheets of 6in square Pyralux™. Use the Toner Transfer method to
|
||
|
etch the Pyralux sheets as you would a usual PCB
|
||
|
|

|
NOTE: If you only have an Inkjet make photocopies of the print out,
|
||
|
voilà Toner based copies!

|
Print these PCB designs out...

Right hand:

|
||
|
|
||
|
When you're done etching, you'll need to carefully cut the pcb into
|
||
|
pieces... See the images below.

|
** This is Madness...
|
||
|
|
||
|
The thumb cluster pcb for the left hand:

|
||
|
|
||
|
Solder the MCP like so:

||
|

|
||
|
[[left-hand-mcp-2.jpg]]
|
||
|
|
||
|
Solder the Teensy 2.0 like so:
|
||
|
[[teensy-1.jpg]]
|
||
|
|
||
|
Some interesting pull up 10k resistor business here... (TODO add a small
|
||
|
diagram and notes)
|
||
|
|
||
|

|
||
|
|
||
|
Each hand of the keyboard will wire up like so:
|
||
|

|
||
|
|
||
|
Teensy goes here... note the rows soldered to the teensy via the
|
||
|
Pyralux:

That's all for now, this guide will improve over time! (TODO!)
