Made me a Cheapino! - eviltoast

Loving it so far. Moved from a Corne and the pinky stagger and especially the thumb cluster are so much more comfortable for me on this one.

Currently using Gateron Brown v3 switches and Cheap OEM profiles from Aliexpress

    The 8 wires of the RJ45 cable are all used, allowing to have only one MCU. Also, RJ45 cables and connectors are cheap and common.

    To manage all these keys with only 8 wires, a special “duplex matrix” is used.

      and I guess you can unplug it without short cutting something like a TRRS does?
