My first stab at a custom-designed keyboard. It’s for a 61-key VP3 from WASD.

Design

Actual keyboard

Source code

Here’s the SVG file I used to provide the design to WASD. You should be able to re-use or modify it as you see fit, just respect the license. You’ll have to pick the keycap colours in their online designer tool.

Next steps

• Pics of actual keyboard when it arrives
• Add backlighting by soldering on LEDS, as shown here and here
• Make a better USB cable; possibly replace/stabilize the USB connector on the PCB
• Find a case or sleeve to store the thing when not in use
