It was way more work than I anticipated. Getting the measurements correct for the standoffs, daughterboard, switches etc took a lot of work and test prints to get right. OTOH I got a working prototype ready pretty fast (1-2 days) which basically just had the standoffs and the daughterboard exposed.
I did not, it is still in its original case. In the new case there is a holder for a cylindrical li-ion battery. Have not dared trying it yet, though, but pretty sure it will work.
Have a K3 Pro at work, and I think the K8 Pro feels a lot better, especially with the 3d printed case. Because of the reduced travel I keep bottoming out the keys on the K3 which does not feel like it is good for my hands. Also tried o-rings, but they don’t work the same way as on a normal profile keyboard.
The V-series is a lot lower, and if I knew about those from the start I’d most probably just get one of those and skip the bluetooth.
How did you get the placement of the standoffs correct? What did you use for standoffs? Are those screws covered in o-rings? Are those keycaps the same type as the Keychron low profile series?
Having been working on a custom 3d-printable case for my K8Pro, and one of the biggest challenges has been the exact locations of the standoffs.
This absolutely. Using variables is a very powerful feature which enables robust, solid and parametric modelling. The way it is implemented currently, however, is very crude. I have also had issues where when a cell refers to another cell further down in the spreadsheet, all sorts of mysterious bugs occur.
Would be nice if someone would implement a proper solution for this. I’d be willing to chip in on financial support if that would be required.
Ouch… Personal phone number exposed on Google Play? Not good. If there is not a cheap and easy way for me to get a second phone number I guess I am out. Have seen it coming for a while, Google Play is no longer a place to be for indie devs.

The only real complaint I have had for my Keychron K4 has been the plastic case, so yesterday I decided NO MORE!...
The promise of the spreadsheet
Just doesn’t live up to expectations. Entering an alias always feels like a double chore, even with the macro.
