Custom Trackball Design

Edit Actually /u/jfedor has a build where the entire trackball is in the ball and that uses an Adafruit Feather bluetooth controller.

Giving “Less, but better” caps another try
1 project | /r/MechanicalKeyboards | 3 Nov 2022

I wasn’t super into these keycaps at first, but decided to give them another shot and I like them so far. Keyboard is a custom build I designed and cable is from https://swiftcables.net/.
New job, new keyboard

Latest build of my "kinda ortho" PCB, now with rotary encoder

PCB is custom and open source, I call it the orch
Keyboard Builders' Digest / Issue 12
6 projects | /r/MechanicalKeyboards | 8 Feb 2021

The orch is a mostly ortho, GMK-friendly layout and PCB by u/oldoverholt with open source design (git & gallery).
First custom PCB! Mostly ortholinear layout with GMK keycaps.

The PCB is my first time doing a full keyboard PCB and I did it in KiCad. The files and everything are open source and available here. The Keyboard PCB Guide here and the Designing a keyboard from scratch series of blog posts were both really helpful, along with the ATmega32U4 datasheet of course! I got the PCB fabricated by JLCPCB (the first order I made, I had forgotten to connect the rows to pins on the MCU lol).
