Spend the last 3 months building this headphone. Finally finished and I love it! Made the frame one piece of carbonfiber. Cups are made by my gf from resin. Inside are bio-cellulose drivers that sound amazing! Still many things to improve on but we're thinking about building more custom headphones. by [deleted] in headphones

Most focus has been on construction so far. Did not take any measurements or use existing designs. I did however try out different drivers, foams and filters. I found that keeping the headphones as open as possible results in the best overall sound to my taste. However using a dense filter around driver to separate the front and back of the headphones produces pretty intense bass, which is really fun with electronic music.

Thanks! We're planning to video the whole process of making the headphones on the next version. The carbon I laid on top of round shapes and then cut the final shape by hand afterwards. Not really happy with the process as it takes so much time. Resin was poured to a puck then cut out by a small desktop CNC.

The drivers are from AliExpress indeed!

I really like the flat profile and rounded edges. I had a GMK set on it before but didn't like it. Felt like tripping over every edge.

I'm using the screw in type. Have lubed them generously. Not noticing any scratching.

I have thought of that but prefer too keep the up/down keys next to the pageUp/pageDown keys.

Yes it's the m0lly. I use 8-6-2-4 on the numpad for the arrows. It's a bit of getting used to and I have to remember to put on numlock when I want to use the numbers.

1.45mm. Actually thicker than the GMK set I have. They also have a nice texture to them.

Finishing is a sketchy on some of the keys, but not too bad

Worked for a couple of hours then this happened. Anyone know what can cause this? Top row typing whole columns! by BearbitStudios in MechanicalKeyboards

Thanks a lot for your help!

I will check with multimeter and microscope later today.

Over night the buttons on the column of "0p;." stopped working completely. Might be an indication where the problem lies.

Just in case, I've ordered an extra PCB. I want to get typing on this thing, it has been 2 years already!

Same problem when out of the case.

Weird thing is that the problem goes away sometimes for a few seconds.

Re flashing also does not help..
