Fisk keyboard
u/Strange-Lab5541's fisk is an ergonomic 54-key handwired split keyboard with 3D-printed case.
Published February 2, 2022
Inspired by revered forebears like the Kyria, Architeuthis dux and Lotus58, this 54-key handwired split with an uncommon OLED placement runs QMK on an Elite-C microcontroller.
After having thought about building a split keyboard for some time, I decided to jump in at the deep end and design one myself… – Strange-Lab5541
Specifications: Column stagger, ring finger (5°) and pinky (12°) splay, slightly tented case (2° toward user and 3° outward), support for one rotary encoder and one 128x32 OLED per half, hot-pluggable RJ10 connection between halves and a transport case.

3D files coming soon are now in the repo as well.
The keycaps were salvaged from an old Triumph-Adler typewriter – quite thick double shots.
I really like the profile, very immediate position feedback, and the sloped ones are just perfect for the thumb keys.
