Ferricy by Icyphox is a 34-key split keyboard based on the Sweep Bling MX.

Ferricy is a slightly modified version of the Ferris Sweep Bling MX, sporting a more industrial look with sharper edges – Icyphox.

Features

  • MX only.
  • Tenting puck support has been removed.
  • Squared-off edges (plates modified accordingly).
  • Larger holes in the PCB for M2 standoffs to pass through.
  • "The stupid Rust crab is gone."
