Marcus Östling aka mackeper designed Fat Cruiser, a low-pro monoblock split driven by a Raspberry Pi Pico.

This is the first keyboard I design and the first I build. It has been my daily driver for about a month now, both during work as a .NET developer and in NeoVim on personal projects. I must say that I didn't think I would like it as much as I do! – mackeper.

Specs

• 36 keys (5x3+3)
• Choc, soldered
• Raspberry Pi Pico H
• significant pinky stagger
