Corne Keyboard

Tags:projects,tech,keyboards

This is my corne keyboard. I built it with a case from Little Keyboards, and PCBs from MechBoards UK. If you are in the UK, I would not recommend ordering from little keyboards because the shipping and import costs outweigh the lower price of parts. Building the PCBs from scratch is also a pain in the ass because of the hotswap sockets, so I got them prebuilt.

I've been using this keyboard for a while and I quite like it. I still get mixed up with symbols occasionally. The switches are still something I'm not sure if I love or hate. Looking to try out some different switches in this board in the future.

I 3d-printed some legs for it, to add some tenting.

Thingiverse files for the legs

I use it alongside my Elecom Deft Trackball with my PC.

Stuff for keyboard nerds

Layout: 40% ortholinear split w/columnar stagger
Switches: Gateron clears (light linears)
Keycaps: Lasered POM (stolen from a cherry G80-3000)
Hotswap?: Yes!
RGB? Yes! But I keep it disabled almost all the time
