This is the first time I built a keyboard!
A cheapino!
It took a little bit of time to get everything figured out, but I was able to finish that build relatively easily.
However, I am having trouble customizing the layout… I can’t load it in the qmk.fm tool and when I upload a json file it gives me something that doesn’t match my keyboard.
Also, the encoder currently types ‘y’ when turned right, I got 2 thumb keys working as spaces and I don’t have a modifier key.
As far as I can tell, everything is soldered right, the diodes are in the right direction…
Did I mess up my soldering or is the cheapino firmware buggy?
Any app that can help me flash/customize my keyboard? I’ll keep googling.
Thanks!

    Oh thank you!
    I might try this again on Linux and see how it goes.
    It’s good to know that the encoder can be fixed, I’ll take a look how to do that.
    Those are nice legs, might get some. I am also already in the process of designing a 3d-printed case that will also serve for tenting. We’ll see how it goes lol.

      Let me know how the case goes, I would love a case for mine! Good luck with the keyboard, these are really fun to use!

        Here’s the first prototype I made in tinkercad.
        I don’t know how to do CAD modeling, but I’ll try my best to make it fit well and I’ll share the STLs.
