Prototype Complete - Swirl Split Keyboard

https://lemmy.world/post/4760068

First Working Prototype Complete - Swirl Split Keyboard - Lemmy.world

It’s not done yet, but I figured I’d show off a little bit since I have been using this for a few weeks now. This is the “swirl”. It’s heavily inspired by the helix with some notable changes: - mbk Choc Spacing (Dimensions are about 12.5cm x 8.5cm on either half) - Reversible roller encoders on the top inner switch https://github.com/vmorganp/swirl [https://github.com/vmorganp/swirl]

Looks awesome! Why use two boards and the trrs cable? Couldn’t you use one board and the cable? Or can each of the two halves be used independently of one another?

I have a larger build and nailing down the ergonomics is really hard without a split board.

I could also use either half independently. (with a quick firmware change on the right, but still)
