Got in some momentary mini toggles and a 22mm aluminum pushbutton. Every couple of years, I bust out the retro, open source game “Endless Sky.” You can play with keyboard-only when in the ship, and the game only has 38 total keybinds, so I’m going to throw together a silly but fun control panel using the switchgear plus some leftover Gat G Pro 2 black and grab-bag keycaps (DSA and F10). I’m pretty well set up to do a faux 80s military look, and I think that aesthetic will actually serve the game well.

I got some stuff that was on sale at Novelkeys in the mail today. TypePlus stabilizers, TypePlus Peacock switches, and a WT-60 Hotswap PCB. Put them together in a tray mount case (retro60 from The Van Keyboards). I have to say, I’m impressed with the switches. The springs definitely need to be lubed or they ring a lot. I’ve got to test them in some top mount and gasket mount boards to know for sure, but the seem very promising.
