Creators! Feel free to tip me off about your keyboard related projects to bring them to 140K readers.
After his SatPad, Jason Hazel aka quirk published the files of this ultrathin 40% ortho board: the Crepe.
This keyboard features Kailh's X switches and supports controllers with Pro Micro footprint (Pro Micro, Nice!Nano, Elite-C, STeMCell, etc.).
MKUltra started carrying the Kailh X Switches, so I grabbed a handful and the Crepe is the result. 40 key ultrathin (7mm not counting bumpons) running ZMK – quirk.
