Not that I don't understand everything you're doing fully and completely...but if you did a tutorial series "for dummies" on how to make one of these, even if it was on a paid platform, I would be there. For example, the part about the LED voltage issue and how you fixed it went straight over my head. Regardless of how much I understand, I frickin love your videos btw.

pro tip! You can use a sacrificial WS2812 or whatever LED you're using as a sacrificial LED by powering it through a diode, lowering the source voltage to low enough to work with 3.3v logic and it will step up the logic signal to its source voltage which will work for the second LED that is powered off 5V

There's something so hilarious to me that you created one of the most imaginative, fascinating keyboard projects I've seen in about five years and you somehow DIDN'T expect the most lunatic fringe keyboard enthusiasts to show up at your door, salivating at the mere idea of it

Ushering in the cyberpunk revolution one DIY modular digital input device revision at a time. Can't wait to see where this project goes next, nor can I imagine the amount of time, effort and prior expertise required to design something this cool. Another great vid from the best maker on youtube

Honestly I absolutely love these videos, the writing, pacing, humour and just the process itself are incredible to view. And with the amount of helpful information you sprinkle in at every step, it’s been actually affecting how I view my own projects in the art world.<br><br>Just last trimester at uni I started planning my projects with a minimum viable deliverable in mind, and it worked wonders. Got the entire project done in one fourth the time I usually do and had plenty of time to polish.<br><br>Gonna enjoy watching this another ten times whilst on public transport and noting down helpful tips for myself!

I will wait until this turns into actual easly purchesable product. The fact this thing gets so much better with each iteration makes waiting even more worth it
