Haori36

Low-pro 36-key hot-swappable monoblock split ortho keyboard with optional Pimoroni trackball support.

Production Files

To place an order for the Haori36 PCB:

  • Use the gerber files in the production/ folder.
  • Optionally one can utilize the BOM and CPL files with a PCBA service to avoid manually soldering SMD diodes, which can be challenging to solder by hand. All components are soldered to the bottom side of the board.

The complete PCB project is in the kicad/ folder.

Case and Plate

3D print the case with the STL file.

There are multiple options for the plate:

  • 3D print using the STL file (or the no-trackball version).
    • Adjust the tolerance settings as needed. As a reference, I set the Initial Layer Horizontal Expansion to -0.3mm and the Horizontal Expansion for subsequent layers to -0.1mm.
  • Use PCB material with the plate gerber files, and opt for 1.6mm or 2.0mm PCB thickness.
  • Laser cut with the DXF file.

The folder also contains an editable STEP file for customization.

Firmware

The Haori36 comes with precompiled VIA-enabled firmware, with trackball enabled by default:

Default Keymaps

The firmware source is located under firmware/QMK/. The trackball settings can be adjusted in rules.mk and config.h.

Questions

How big is the Haori36 PCB?

It measures 204.3 × 68 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Haori36 use?

79 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 Haori36 KiCad files?

From the penk/Haori36 repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is kicad/haori36.kicad_pcb and its schematic kicad/haori36.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Haori36 design in my own project?

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