Description
Type with only one hand
Designed around
- the most common letters used
- relationships between sounds
- the shape of a left hand
- practicality
The PS-OHK (pronounced "psawk" [p͡sɑk̚]) aims to be the ultimate one-handed typing experience all without special modifiers (a standard key count) and a layout that is relatively easy to get used to.

Questions
How big is the Keys lefthand PCB?
It measures 252.8 × 229.6 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Keys lefthand use?
83 parts. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.
Where can I download the Keys lefthand KiCad files?
From the blueOkiris/ps-ohk repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is keys-lefthand/keys-lefthand.kicad_pcb and its schematic ctrl/ctrl.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Keys lefthand design in my own project?
Its repository publishes it under the GPL-3.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
