I've been keeping an eye on the ergodox, but was probably going to go with a kinesis. You've tempted me about the fun of building one myself instead.

Could you ballpark what the cost to build one would be?(ignoring tools like the soldering iron?)



Right. I'd meant to write up the pricing.

Keys - $0.80 x 78 Diodes - $2-$3 3D printed shells - $240 from Shapeways. Cheaper from a friend with a makerbot Keycaps - Cheapest when harvested from a board found at goodwill. Otherwise, $35 or so from WASD Teensy++ - $24

I'll leave the "priceless" joke to the peanut gallery.
