Hey guys, I have a sofle v4 from 42.keebs which uses this switch on the inner side to switch it on / off when using the battery. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32406053825.html I am currently building a 3d printed case which is made for a regular v2 so the switch does not fit. Do you guys know a vertical switch with the same footprint or do I have to use bodge wires?

I would love to print this case for my Sofle v2 keyboard. Since I don't own a 3D printer (... yet) I would like to do this by using an online printing service like PCBWay. Before I order, I do have some questions, since I have never printed anything.

• What percentage of infill do you folks suggest? I was thinking 100% would be most stable.
• Would PLA be a good material? I was thinking on filling and sanding it.
• the project only has the parts for one side. Is there an easy way to mirror everything ?
• Do you guys know a good printing service in Tokyo?

Hi folks. Currently thinking of buying a new SBC since my Odroid HC4 died i am looking to buy a new sbc as my home Server. I would be mainly running portainer with the following apps:

• pihole
• wallabag
• conduit
• revolt ( optional)
• grocy (optional have to try first )
• wireguard

The orange pi 5 with 8gb RAM seemed like a good choice, but the 4 or even 3B models are even a bit cheaper. What do you guys think. Should I go for a prior gen or even a different SBC entirely?

Looking for good resources on scanning mostly flat textures. Tried to use a photograph of a tatami mat and had a lot of problems with the lens distortion. I don't own any professional photo equipment so I have to use my Pixel 6 camera. I have a couple of Ideas but I'm not really sure how to tackle the problem. Using a 3d scan app / photogrametry could be an option, but I have yet to find a fitting application. Another approach could be using a handheld scanner, but the surface has to be relatively flat. A brick wall for example would be problematic.

What is your folks workflow for capturing textures?

I know they look a bit goofy, but the wide toe box just feels great. Do you guys have some outfit suggestions for this fall?

If you guys ever visit Japan, make sure to visit one of the many second hand stores. I would advice against visiting one in a touristy spot like Shibuya though. At least the ones I visited there seemed to be a lot more pricy. But even the shops in more rural areas have an awesome selection of clothes, which are in top shape. In my home country most second hand shops smell of old fabric and you have to look really hard to find something good. In Japan everything smells fresh and there are so many cool options.

Since its finally starting to cool down a bit in Japan, I am looking forward to finally wearing longer clothes and boots again. I have a favorite pair of mock toes. You guys have any inspiration for a good combo? Thought of maybe combining it with a wool or felt coat and a jeans.

My wife gifted me this super cute mini miffy diorama from a gachapon. It uses two 1,5V cells and has a tiny led in it. I would really love to to add a 24h timer. ( it should stay on for 4 hours after turning it on then go to "standby" for 20h before turning back on) Do you guys think an attiny85 is the right thing for the job? Sorry of the question is dumb in any way. I am absolutely not an electronics guy.

Currently looking for a router with the following points

• sfp ports for fiber connection (we have fiber internet)
• should be possible to use a wireguard on the router, since would like to use for our smart tv.
• would like to run some small containers (pihole and maybe some network scanner)

The R3 looks pretty cool specially, since WiFi is built in and there are deals with case and antennas. I don't know of 2gb of RAM would be sufficient to run openwrt + some containers.

The New R4 will have double the RAM, but at least on first glance it looks, like a WiFi extension has to be bought. Also I guess it will me more expensive.

What do you folks think? Should I wait for the R4 or buy one of those package deals including antennas and metal?

Bonus Question: what sfp modules do you use for fiber connection?

As the title says: I was thinking about getting into 3d printing for a long time now. The main thing I can think of when it comes to reasons for printing is keyboard building. Do you folks have any recommendations for a good entry-level printer that is able to print for example a Charybdis? Luckily I really like split keyboard which should reduce the needed print area.
