Nearly perfect

The Daisy40 from kprepublic had been my daily driver for many years. After 2 dead PCBs I figured it was finally time to try something new.

The DSP40 fits perfectly in the kprebublic HHKB case, and used USB C which is a very convenient upgrade from the original PCB's mini USB.

The one thing that bothers me with this design is the placement of the spacebar. On the original kprepublic PCB, the spacebar was centered. On the DSP40, if you want a full-sized spacebar, it needs to be off-center.
Practically, there is no difference. Aesthetically, it doesn't look right. I wish the 1.25u key could be on the right side, with two 1u keys on the left, like the original.

I'm incredibly happy to have this board back though. It's my very favorite 40

Portable, simple, cute!

I'm so happy with this board! It's my first 40%. I was looking for something a little more portable than my daily driver (Iris rev 7) and the DSP40 was exactly it. It's also a great project to work on if you're just learning how to solder. I do wish there were acrylic plates to purchase alongside the PCB for a more durable build, but that can be easily remedied with the 3D-printed case files linked in the product description, third-party vendors, or a simple soft case (what I ended up using).

Hi Cas!
Thrilled you're enjoying your DSP40 keyboard! Portability can be so helpful when you need to type on the go. Glad you could find a fun project for picking up soldering. Now you can build anything else you want!
Happy Typing,
Kayla at Keebio!

Great affordable 40%

I had so much fun putting this thing together, and it was my first time soldering a pcb. However it was very easy. I built this using Marandi switches and CYL Dots R2 keycaps and it turned out great. Highly recommend. Keebio was also really nice, as I had forgot to add the plate to the order and they gave it to me with no extra shipping cost.

Great little portable board. Fave Stars!

I got this to use it as a Keeb for my Steam deck and get into Soldering. The soldering process is lowkey and good for first timers. After an hour ish of soldering, it was done, so I wanted to print the case. Once that was done, I realized that there was a flaw (may be only on my end) with the usb-c hole in the bottom shell, but fixed with a bit of sanding. Now just waiting on the screws and caps to come in. Overall a good board for portability, ergonomics, and good for beginning to solder.
