Christian Lo aka sporewoh came up with a portable companion to his bancouver40: kowgary16 is a 4x4 low-profile macropad with CFX spacing.

Hey everyone! Happy to showcase my ultraportable low-profile macropod, the kowgary16! – sporewoh.

It uses choc switches and CFX spacing (17mm x 17mm), so it works with Chosfox CFX caps but not with e.g. MBK or Kailh choc keycaps.

Specs

  • 4x4 layout
  • CFX spacing (17x17mm)
