Introduction

A guide to building the Pan keyboard, available at RGBKB. Pictures are coming soon!
The ergo layout on R1.2 boards has an issue with the bottom row, 4th key from the left. Please contact me for a replacement PCB, or use 1.5u keys in that position.

Kit contents:

  • Middle PCB
  • Bottom PCB
  • 12x M2.5 8mm standoffs
  • 24x 5mm M2.5 hex low-profile screws
  • Soldered components including controller and LEDs
  • Acrylic cover
  • 4x Rubber feet
A plate is required to build Pan! You can buy one or make your own.
The Ganymede case can be installed after putting your board together, and is optional.

Tools Required

  • Soldering iron, thin tip recommended
  • Flush/Micro cutters
  • Solder/Flux
  • Metric Allen keys
