Mechanical Keyboard V2

The first time I saw a V4N4G0N, created by the Trash Man, I knew I wanted one. However, I felt that the original was a bit wasteful: there was so much extra space. So, I decided to fix that by adding a rotary encoder to the left side, where there used to be indicator leds, and added an OLED to the right side, where only the name used to be inscribed. Compared to the V1, you can see how much I have learned in CAD over the 3 years between the boards: The corners and sides are both filleted, the screws are countersunk, and it now includes both an OLED and an encoder, which was just a dream back when I made the V1. This carries over the heart of the V1, with the microcontroller being the same Teensy 2.0 as the original.

Tech Specs

Microcontroller: Teensy 2.0 (with a usb-c breakout board)

Switches: Kailh Box Royals

Keycaps: Strike Freedom Gundam keycaps

Filament: Hatchbox Red PLA, Hatchbox Gray PLA

Software: QMK (unlike the V1, this board was completely made through QMK. It had to be due to the OLED and the rotary encoder)
