Questions

How big is the Left half PCB?

It measures 200 × 130 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Left half use?

92 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 Left half KiCad files?

From the datacompboy/split-keyboard repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is pcb/left-half.kicad_pcb and its schematic pcb/left-half.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Left half design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the CC0-1.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
