Red Herring.
This is a 75% board with a split ergo layout similar to an Alice, but with columnar-staggered keys like the Jabberwocky by NoPunIn10Did. The PCB features all through-hole components with the diodes laid out in a herringbone pattern that follows the contour of the top row keys. I left a lot of room around the rotary encoder, so it can fit a 48mm diameter knob. And finally, front and center is a 64x128 OLED display.
My excitement for this board stems largely from the ability to use standard keycaps. Whether they’re cheap or expensive, as long as your kit has that extra 1.75u shift and a 2u key from the numpad, you’re probably good to go. The oversized rotary knob is a bit ridiculous, but I personally find it amusing to look at. And even though it adds a lot of heft to the PCB, I love seeing exposed through-hole components, especially when they’re laid out nicely.
As I mentioned, this is just a prototype I’m doing for fun, but I am working on a rev 2. The case design will be improved functionally and aesthetically, and the next PCB will support a full 2.25u left shift. I’m also considering moving the caps lock LED up to the top instead of under the key, and also move the knob slightly over to make it look less crowded.
Here are the build details of the pictured keyboard: custom laser cut clear gray/red acrylic case, Red Herring rev1 PCB, FR4 plate, silent Alpaca switches, Durock v2 stabs, Iron Man keycaps from Drop.
Let me know what you guys think! And here’s the full album with a few extra pics: https://imgur.com/a/fM5yRbc
I also want to mention all the other amazing board designs that I took inspiration from: Boardrun Bizarre, Adelheid, Discipline & Mysterium, Mercutio, and Basketweave.
everything now is in EARLY stages
