    This is great! I've got all the components for a handwired board, now I just need to actually start assembling. Your videos have been super helpful for pointers and ideas.

      That’s great to hear! Make sure to send me some photos when you build one, i would love to see :)

    Now if only I could figure out how to print switches 🤔

      if it doesn't tear itself apart after a few strokes I'd be drowning in switches

      There are some designs out there. I would probably try incorporating them into the plate.

      i'd definitely go with resin for that 😅

      it would be really cool if someone use galvanoplasty (Electrotyping) with 3D printable parts, not only for some cosplay props, but for some technical applications:)
      i mean that something like 3D printed springs is already exists, so why not to try make conductive parts of switch to combine all together and try to get some experimental full diy switches?
      maybe it would be intresting challange...
      what if in the future we will have like openscad files with all params and able to print switches and make parts conductive and play with this a bit
      if someone had a time machine please tell us how is it going in the future!

    a really cool tool for bending diodes, thanks for sharing

    I've been intrigued for years with the frog pad along with other one handed keyboards. I'm looking forward to getting the 3d printed components from your store and building it myself.

    You came along at the perfect time! I just started putting together a list of components for a cyberdeck build and a frogpad was on the list. So happy that I can get one without dealing with my terrible circuit design skills.

    Awesome work like always. Thank you for updates. One day i will jump and try to make my own :)

    great video bud. elephants foot compensation setting in slicer or first layer inset/offset width can sure those elephants foot problems in a jiff

    Saw the thumbnail and I was wondering why you're using egg cartons for keebs now, this makes more sense now, lol

    Oh man, yeah platemount stabs on 3DP plate is such a PITA. Never been able to get mine tuned right. I usually use a tiny file to correct the fitment but I still find it impossible to get them up to the standard of pcb mount stabs. Cool project man! I love the little diode twisting jig, will definitely need to make one of those myself!

    Do you have the STL for this coiler on your github? I found the file for a different one but didn't understand how to use that one. I love your content and I'm currently about to start wiring my first 3x3 macropad following your guide!

    • @joe_scotto
      @joe_scotto  5 місяців тому

      Yeah, it's under the Extras folder.

    looks like a eggs container, or a antique concrete rune of mayans, but LOOKS GREAT !!!

      A few people have been telling me it looks like an egg carton 😂

    is there any 3d file of the keycaps?

    Will you be able to program the "chorded" keys like the frogpad?

    • @joe_scotto

      The ZMK wireless keymap mimics the FrogPad including combos.

    not sure why but I can't seem to save this video to one of my private palylists :(, or my Watch Later for that matter.

    Hey Joe, can u share the stl file of this keycaps?

      Yeah, they’re just on the repo: github.com/joe-scotto/scottokeebs/tree/main/Extras/ScottoCaps/Standard

    niiiiiice. my goal is to make my first ScottoFrog this weekend :3
    you'll see my fork!
    I might even try to color-theme the case & switches for Cyberpunk 2077

    This largely misses the point of the original, a pocket sized portable device. They were even good on an arm band.

    • @joe_scotto
      @joe_scotto  Рік тому +2

      I also have wireless firmware available for it that exactly mimics the original layout of the Frogpad. I just don’t have a use for that so I made it into a gaming pad.

      @@joe_scotto That's cool, I'm just pointing out the original was a very different thing. It was terrible in some ways too, but membrane switches allowed it to be thin, modal input allowed for "decent" one handed use and it's primary application was mobile industrial or administrative tasks like working in a warehouse, construction, military, etc. Think PipBoy (there are actual products like that).
