Creators! Feel free to tip me off about your keyboard related projects to bring them to 100K readers.
The Cut Slope by Jason Hazel aka quirk is a nice monoblock split with orthoish halves at a comfortable fixed angle, but with the outer columns splayed – we don't see something like this very often. Oh, and there's also a big-ass display in the middle.
A couple months ago I designed my first integrated RP2040 board – Cut Slope. I posted pictures on lemmy during the subreddit hiatus, so some of you may have seen it already. Since r/emk is back, I'm celebrating by releasing the source code – quirk.
Specs
- 36 keys (6x3+3), Choc-spaced, hotswap
- Ortho-ish with dropped/splayed pinkies and fanned thumbs
- Integrated RP2040.
- Big-ass full color 240x320 screen support
- QMK / ZMK (wired only, no display)
Resources
I've also got a few of the prototypes left for purchase if you're interested in picking up one without getting a bunch fabricated – quirk.
