I've also uploaded my hex file. + +## Description +Instead of going up and down layers like in the original Alpha keyboard, I've made the bottom row keys all have alternate functions: ++ Like in the original Alpha28 keymap, the 2U spacebar is a shift key when held down and space when tapped ++ Z and M are Ctrl keys when held down or Z and M when tapped ++ X and N are Alt keys ++ C activates the function keys layer (arrows, page up/dn, esc, tab, etc.) ++ V activates the characters and numbers layer ++ C and V combined activated the F-keys layer (F1, F2, F3, etc.) ++ The enter key is an enter key in the home layer, backspace in the function keys and characters/numbers layer and a delete in the F-keys layer ++ While in the other layers, the bottom row acts like a "regular" bottom modified row: ctrl, alt, winkey + +## Keymap + + +## Build Images +Here is my keyboard. ++ Switches: Aliaz Silent Switches (Tactile), PCB mount, 80g from [KBDfans](https://kbdfans.cn/collections/aliaz-switches/products/pre-orderaliaz-silent-switch-tactile?variant=2519899832333) ++ PCB board: ordered from JLCPCB, in white ++ Keycaps: ebay, can't find link :S ++ Bottom plate: I cut a piece of canary wood that was laying around, needs to be varnished; I also need to actually screw the pcb to the wood instead of relying on double-sided tape + + + + + + + +Good luck on your build! +//vderm |
