DIY USB Typewriter Conversion Kit by usbtypewriter on Etsy

typewriter kbd hack

This is one of two kits for converting your typewriter into a USB-ready keyboard. It comes with two blank PCBs and all electronic parts (unassembled), so that you can have the knowledge and satisfaction that come with wiring up this fun electronics project by yourself. The boards consist of roughly 20 through-hole components and 30 through-hole metal contacts (which you will learn how to make). It should take an experienced solderer roughly 3 or 4 hrs to assemble the electronics, and another 3 hrs to install them on the typewriter.

gonna steam punk me up a keyboard. will miss the 1 key but who cares!
