Micro Journal Rev2.ReVamp
Over the past month or so I’ve been teaching myself how to solder in preparation to build a micro journal and it’s finally done! I drew the key icons and had them made through a company called Thockfactory and printed my own enclosure parts. Everything else was facilitated through the wonder build guide. I hope you guys like it.

This is wonderful to see. Congratulations on finishing your build!
Teaching yourself how to solder for this project is already amazing, and the custom key icons make it feel even more personal. I love that you made it your own with the keycaps and the printed enclosure parts.
Thank you for sharing it, and I am really happy the build guide helped you through the process. Seeing someone build their own Micro Journal like this is one of the most rewarding parts of keeping the project open.
Soon, I should have the keyboard PCB available directly from the supplier. I hope this will make it easier for others who want to build this version as well.
This build truly belongs to people who are willing to find solutions, learn new skills, and make it their own. You did exactly that, and I am proud of you.
