Mike Typeson is a 30-key true split keyboard shared by Stephan Møller aka rollercole.

[my new prototype keyboard] is not pretty, but he gets the job done. I have previously designed an all flat board and a keywell board, but now I wanted to try making a flat finger area but with a tented thumb – Stephan.

The board, held together by the 3D-printed tented base, is wired as a unibody split even though the electronics are in three pieces.

Specifications

• 30 keys
• MX switches, hotswap
• Seeed XIAO RP2040 controller
• reversible PCB (halves)
• 3D-printed base/case
• custom firmware
