SplitKeyboardCAD copy

Split-Keyboard

This is my first time building a full keyboard, although I have built a macropad before. It is a split keyboard, and I am building it to test out connection between two microcontrollers.

PCB

This is my PCB for the keyboard, in this photo it is disconnected so I can make the case around it in onshpae.

I know it looks a little messy but I plan on the case being not a thing layer just covering it and acctually giving it a shape.

This is the schmatic for my PCB I used this as a parent page so I can just copy the two halves of the keyboard.

This is one of the pages, the left side, but both are identical

This the 3d view (it is still not connected)

CAD

I worked on my CAD two seperate times the first time I had the PCB connected and I couldn't figure out a good way to split it so I made a base model

After I splitted it in Kicad I made my case. I paticularly like this design it looks minamilistic, but it also looks kinda unique.

I used a little help from my friend to make this cause I'm not the best at CAD. :)

I also had to make to seperate models cause each of my keyboard sides are different. (heh)

Code

I just used the Zmk method and watched some out of date videos for this one I used a bit of Claude for debugging and finding out what I should plug in where. I also used AI for the keymaps since it is a lot of repeating work
