Elephant42 and KLOR – but 1 less pinky key

Maybe the elephant42 if you can make do with over less key in the outermost columns 😬

Elephant42 – 4 thumb keys

The spacers I used are 8mm brass standoffs because I used the same layers as described in the Elephant42 repo but if I only used a 3mm switch plate, I'm sure you could use 6mm standoffs.

Fwiw I'm currently daily driving an elephant42 with a custom layout that does not use the outermost column. Given its pinky stagger and 4 relatively easily reachable thumb cluster, I could envision it to be an option.

Current is elephant42 with Boba U4s and YMDK milky fog keycaps.

There are few presets in the elephant42 for the RGB. Is there any way to define colors on my choice. For example if I want to select the RGB color for each key individually myself? Thanks

link does not work for me, think it's supposed to be this: https://github.com/raychengy/fifi_split_keeb

Thank you! If you're interested in a corne with a more aggresive stagger you should take a look at the Fifi or the KLOR in saegewerk layout (which I also designed), if you want splay too.

I use a custom keyboard with a vim navigation layer. With my previous keyboard I simulated that (on MacOS) with karabiner .

If you want MX, I’d probably suggest the fifi. It is basically a 5-column corne with kyria stagger. https://github.com/raychengy/fifi_split_keeb

I’m using the Fifi keyboard and my thumb naturally sits on that Enter key so it is a home row: https://github.com/raychengy/fifi_split_keeb
