The Cajal is a 45% hotswap keyboard with a detached
arrow cluster, a prominent volume knob, and an RGB underglow
ring. It’s heaviest configuration weighs 5lbs, making it one
of the heaviest boards for its size. This keyboard is a
culmination of all the features that were requested from the
Neuron GB, along with some new design features that haven’t
yet been implemented in a sub-60% keyboard. I have added
programmable indicator lights and gasket mounting system
using stoppers to adjust the compression on nitrile tabs
attached to the plate in 4 places. With only four plate
attachment points, the Cajal was designed to permit flex in
bendier plate materials while still providing a cushioned
bottom out on a brass plate. By changing plate material,
gasket hardness (40A soft or 70A hard), and gasket
compression tightness, users will be able to tailor their
experience to their preferences. Prepare your wallets for
June 1st!
About the Name
More
The Cajal is named after Santiago Ramón y Cajal (1852-1934),
the father of modern neuroscience. His studies of the brain
were crucial to the discovery that the nervous system
consists mainly of individual cells, a theory called neuron
doctrine. For this discovery, he was honored with the Nobel
Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1906. His contributions
to neuroanatomy and detailed drawings of neural structures
are still relevant to our understanding of the nervous
system more than a hundred years later. In addition to his
scientific discoveries, Cajal was a writer of science
fiction short stories under the name Dr. Bacteria, a
bodybuilder in his younger years, a talented painter and
artist, a doctor in the Spanish Army, and as a child, was
briefly imprisoned in a local church for blowing a hole in
his neighbors front door with a homemade cannon. This
keyboard is a minor tribute to his brilliance.
