Mechanical Keyboard - Mech-60 (GH60 Compatible)

Tutorial

Updated 8/12/2021

Added a teensy mount as well as larger holes for the screws. Use the "updated" bot parts.

Motivation

Keyboard 3: Ok, I get it, there's already a ton of 60% keyboards on this site.

A few weeks ago I got very interested in the idea of 3d printed keyboards. My brother had a broken mechanical keyboard which I de-soldered the switches from which left me only needing the diodes, Teensy 2.0, screws and keycaps. After looking through what thingiverse had to offer, I choose between the @FedorSosnin 's Sick-68 and @fumbucker 's Clueboard 66%. I printed and assembled both, but ultimately ended up soldering and programming the clueboard. With this knowledge I decided to make a full size keyboard with the strengths of both. The spacing measurements and overall design is taken from the sick-68, the alternating layers is taken from the clueboard.

Edit 8/14/2020 GH60

Added compatibility with the popular GH60 PCB. Just replace the bot_middle and bot_left with the bot_left_gh60a and bot_middle_gh60.
