Falk's overstaggered Corne Keyboard (CRKBD)

FOCK - Falk's Overstaggered Corne Keyboard

FOCK at work, still waiting for batteries

Underside with simple standoff tenting and battery held by double sided tape

Status

V2 is my daily driver running on ZMK since 09/22.

There is no firmware supporting the USB-C connection between halves yet, but electronically the connections should be sound.

Why

CRKBD is nice, but could use more stagger, a num row and USB-C

Features

• fully reversible PCB
• 54 keys (6x4 + 4 thumb keys per side)
• nice!nanoV2 driven, pro-micro compatible
• usb c cable for connection between halves
• battery support
• ZMK support

Explicitly not planned:

• LEDs (over/under/any glow)
• return to TRRS
• Rotary encoders

Repo overview

• Readme - this readme
• fock.yaml - generator file for ergogen (requires the master branch from my fork though, since several footprints have been heavily updated)
• img/ - images for documentation
• Assembly manual

TODO or future plans

• QMK support
• optional num row w mouse bites
• good case
• trackball/trackpad support
