reviung VS Klein

I felt like one of the Reviung boards would work, but they’ve either got too many columns or too few thumb keys…

And then do the wiring accordingly. From firmware perspective it is more like a reviung42 ;) see https://github.com/gtips/reviung/tree/master/reviung41

take a look at the bottom plate for the Reviung41 – includes some laser engraving to act as a diffuser for the LEDs (personal opinion, I think you could survive with only the two outer rows of RGB LEDs)

Reviung41

Reviung41, Reviung39, Reviung34, and Reviung5 – kits available at various shops around the net

This is a remix of the revlp from Cyril, which itself is remix of the reviung41 by GTips.

Reviung41, which has 5 thumb keys, one key naturally positioned for each thumb, one inner key for each, and a wide centre key for either thumb. These are set to: Function & Special Layer/Escape Command/Space Navigation Layer/Return (I originally had this centre key be space, which seemed natural, but the stretch was slightly annoying, so I switched it to Return (this had the added advantage of allowing me to use a regular 2¼U Return key!)) Number key — I’m still experimenting with this, but it is currently a Tap Dance: Tap — One Shot Home Row Number Layer Hold — Momentary Number Pad Layer Tap-Tap — Switch to Home Row Number Layer Tap-Hold — Switch to Number Pad Layer Right Option/One Shot Right Command — this is going to be replaced with a 5-way navigation switch and I’m not sure what the middle press will do (if anything)

How about a Reviung. The 41 is available from a few places, e.g.: https://www.littlekeyboards.com/products/reviung41-analyst-keyboard-kit

If you can afford losing pinky column, Klein is almost perfect: https://github.com/snsten/Klein
