CB34S - A 34 Keys Columnar Staggered Board ft. Nice!View

CB34S is a 34 key column-staggered choc unibody keyboard that has wireless capabilities with the Nice!Nano and supports a Nice!View display. It’s my second attempt at a PCB design and I couldn’t have done it without the wonderful community.

The PCB is of course open sourced and can be found here: github.com/bubbleology/CB34S

Beautiful 😍

neonred,

Looks nice and clean, great! Could you tell us a bit more about it?

There’s a dot in your URL giving a 404.

Ha, fixed the URL - thank you for pointing it out 🥰. It’s a unibody split meaning it’s essentially a split keyboard in a unibody. Even though I like to type on a split keyboard while having them shoulders width apart the unibody format allows for easier transportation and typing on the lap while traveling.

As for the main features it …:

  • supports hotswap sockets
  • is choc v1 spaced
  • has the MCU mounted face down
  • can be used wireless
  • has a subtle angle of the halves (which I prefer more)
  • has a bigger gap between the halves

The case is 3D printed with PLA and currently no open sourced. The keycaps used are custom MBKs with Chicago Steno Homing from Pseudoku. If you have any other questions just let me know 😊.
