Alphasmart 3000 Build Log

Hello, after another hiatus, we're so back. I've returned to make more zines and maybe other stuff. To kick things off, the website has been overhauled. Thanks to Prime for introducing me to docusaurus. Also I've finally invested in a proper Bigcartel store! Please check out the new webstore that has been stocked with all the backcatalog.
And I'm launching a new Discord server. It'll be notifications only for now.
I'll be primarily posting updates on discord. Posting updates on Instagram has become a huge chore which I have grown to hate doing. I'll try and post the occassional updates. But I won't be using it as my primary social media.
And finally, I hope you enjoy this build log on my Alphasmart 3000. It's not your average keyboard and my first choc build! In the near future, I'm hoping to have a new zine out. Longer term, I'm hoping to be able to show off my first artisan.I hope you enjoy the new updates! There will hopefully not be anymore long breaks for this project!
Wanna chat or got any ideas? Message me on Discord or email me at contact@tactilezine.xyz.
For the December 2023 NYC meetup, I wanted to do something special and bring some more artisan representation.
I built my first keyboard in literally years and figured I'd document it because build logs are still fun.
If you've ever wondered what got me back into keyboards after 6 years away, it's pretty simple.
This summer, I'll be attending a bunch of keyboard meetups.
A physical zine covering the maker and creative culture around custom mechanical keyboards.
I've finally taken the plunge to start modding my Filco Zero.
