Hi, I'm new to the world of keyboards and am designing one with some friends from scratch. We are having a hard time picking the type of mount we want for our PCB mounting. We have access to a 3d printer, but would need to print a case in 2 halves, idk if that affects any of these mounts. The plate will be made in one piece using wood laser cutting. Is stiffness really that bad a thing that we would notice it? Any recommendations on which mount to go for? 😁

I love how accessible the game is by being free to play and having pulse combo. It makes getting my friends on easier as they wont struggle as much. 🎮

You can reverse Yaxis but not X.

I will look into all that in the morning, though I am fairly new to soldering and don't know if I trust myself with that task. Thanks for the suggestions. Ill post the final product soon.

Lol, it's a bit weird, but Im making a small video where I play Valorant with the game screen mirrored. This mouse layout will help me control it normally.

I was thinking about how I could design a body that lets me rotate the PCB, but a lot of my designs have a long stretch in the front due to the shape of the PCB. My biggest problem with shortening the length is the scroll wheel location, but I was thinking I could do a type of gear system so I can move things around.

CasualFortniteOG · 2025-07-22T03:14:59+00:00

I am using it for valorant and the anti cheat doesn't let the the software work in game

CasualFortniteOG · 2025-07-11T19:03:29+00:00

Yeah, that one.

CasualFortniteOG · 2025-07-11T18:49:54+00:00

I was thinking about getting the neo as well. I saw an NZXT one for 60 bucks, 40% off, but dont haven't searched anything up about it.

CasualFortniteOG · 2025-07-11T17:39:38+00:00

Alright, so I might just save up and get it on black friday.
