Keyboard Builders' Digest / Inspiration

Spaxial

This strange abomination is Spaxial, a peculiar angled unibody keyboard by u/keycashcow. I like it a lot.

I'm not sure the inspiration column is the best place for the Spaxial project by keycashcow. Along with the artistic photo composition it would fit an art column or the Keyboard art part of my weekly newsletter better.

Anyway, I thought I have to include it in the digest for historic reasons.

There has been some controversy on whether the spacebar should be flipped. I may have found the solution – keycashcow.

No files nor too much info:

• Homemade keyboard named “Spaxial”
• Hi-Tek Series 725 switches (also known as Space Invaders)
• Wireless, using a nice!nano, powered by ZMK
