The first keyboard is a horn ear
There are all sorts of avenues in the mechanical keyboard hobby, and one of the most traveled is between colleagues. [crsayen] aka [DrJamesOIncandenza] has such a relationship, and was turned on at CRKBD a while ago by a co-worker. For the uninitiated, it's short for Horn Keyboard, which is a 3×6 split-column keyboard with three thumb keys per hand.
While [JOI] liked the Horn, especially with shocks, he sometimes felt like slapping (this is what we now call slapping linears - slamming against slapping) on some silent MX switches, etc. . built this Horn-derived one-piece split called Keyboard One. Besides the most obvious differences,
We think that sounds pretty spanking for a first keyboard, a bit like a slightly smaller Alice or something. But you don't have to go to great lengths to get the knowledge from [JOI] because it's all on GitHub. [JOI] says they kind of regret going with 3×6, but are already planning another version with more keys. You see, it's the spirit.
