About Sakha

My journey began with curiosity and a love for art and design.

Since I was a child, I’ve always been fascinated by how things are made. I loved taking broken items apart just to understand how they worked, especially transparent objects that revealed their inner mechanisms. That curiosity never left me—it simply grew.

As I got older, life led me down a difficult path. There was a time when I couldn’t find a job, and I also needed to care for my disabled father. I had to find a way to make a living from home. I tried many things, from reselling and dropshipping to selling online game items, but none of them truly worked or felt right.

Everything changed when I discovered custom mechanical keyboards. I instantly fell in love and decided to design my own. I learned 3D modeling and worked with a CNC manufacturer to produce my first design. While it was a great learning experience, I realized I wanted more than just designing—I wanted to make things myself.

So I taught myself manufacturing. Even though professional machines were far beyond my budget, I built and modified my own equipment. Most of the machines in my workshop today are unbranded and self-built, created through years of experimentation and persistence.

After nearly eight years of learning and building, I now run a small home workshop where every product is thoughtfully designed and carefully made. Each piece you see here reflects my journey, my hands-on process, and my passion for craftsmanship.

Thank you for supporting small, independent makers.
