Sexy Artsey

Cute 10-key wireless sculpted ergo keyboard with an encoder. It's fully open source! Make it personal by attaching various accessories and designing your own! ✨

It is a one-handed keyboard that uses Artsey layout. Letters are typed by pressing multiple keys at the same time — chords.

Accessories

I designed multiple items you can attach to it like a handle, a lightning badge, spikes and a toy construction brick attachment. There is also an alternative cute flower knob.

It's easy to design your own accessories with the CAD files provided.

Layout

Sexy Artsey keyboard is designed for Artsey.io (Ardux.io) layout with the addition of two thumb keys. Here is the reference diagram of the original Artsey layout.

After trying the Artsey layout for a bit I realized a better fit might be a Taipo layout. So my current layout is mostly Taipo with some Artsey inspired parts too.

Building

The build is handwired. I enjoyed designing the keyboard but I didn't enjoy wiring it. Too many wires! I used a matrix for 8 main keys and a direct connection for two thumb switches and encoder push button. Put in some lead pellets inside for weight.

This is my third try making an Artsey keyboard. So some files are called v3.
