Enthusiast didn't like the Framework 13's mushy keyboard, so he built a custom version with a full mechanical keyboard — also added mechanical dials to control volume, brightness, and backlighting

A tech enthusiast dissatisfied with the Framework 13 laptop's membrane keyboard built a custom version called the Campus, featuring a full mechanical keyboard and added mechanical dials for volume, brightness, and backlighting control. The custom laptop was meticulously crafted from scratch, including designing a chassis to fit Framework 13 components and creating a low-profile mechanical keyboard with KL Chalk switches. Gasket mounts were added for consistent typing experience, and an internal USB hub was integrated to enhance I/O functionality. Despite challenges like a non-functional homemade USB hub, the project showcases the potential of Framework's modular laptops for DIY customization.
