By popular demand, I made the case shown in this video available for sale over on my website. You can get it in either a 3x5 and 3x6 layout along with wired or wireless variants: scottokeebs.com/products/scottocorne-keyboard-case
so yeah - ~ a year ago, when i told myself that i wanted to learn how to build a keyboard - yours and Zach Freedman's videos are what i meant. not, just as an example, paying thousands of dollars for overpriced small-batch components that take 2 years to receive to ultimately make typing sound like popping bubble-wrap (in a bad way). thank you so much for making these videos, especially one which covers the process and considerations made when making a case!
If you set infill to 100%, you’ll see that there are still gaps in the print depending on what pattern you’re using. By setting it to treat all layers as bottom layers, it ensures it will print completely solid regardless of the infill pattern.
I don't want to sound like the "well actually", but here it goes anyway: you can set the infill percentage to 100% to achieve the same effect as setting the bottom layer to 1000. It's better to do it like that because it's the 'real' way to do it and it will be more stable.
It depends on the slicer, some will print solid, others won't. By setting the bottom layers to a high number you ensure that the print will actually be solid.
I have ordered most of the parts to do this build although 3x6 for now with the option to go smaller in the future. Did you are do you know how to attach a power switch to turn of the keyboards on a v2 board?
Hey! Quick question. Was there any particular reason why you chose to go with that specific iteration of the PCB? (v2) as opposed to something like a v3?
Too high to game with but low enough that you don’t notice it typing. You can plug the board in and use it wired if you need the lowest possible latency.
Yes. There is normal Bluetooth delay however if you plug in the master side it will have normal USB latency on that half. Both halves still will communicate with Bluetooth low energy with I believe 7-30ms of latency, but don’t quote me on that.
Oof. 7-30 would seem to be extremely high. That would mean that you are playing at like 40-60 when you also count in processing and internet delay.. which counts as unplayable
It is more than enough for coding, I do it all the time and plan on making a video taking about it soon. Here is the keymap: github.com/joe-scotto/zmk-config-corne/blob/main/config/corne.keymap
@@joe_scotto cool, turned the bell on for your channel and looking forward to review ;) Some questions for future video: How do you switch between apps? Dedicated arow keys are really useful, isn't it uncomfortable having them on another layer? Doesn't it make U mad having to jump over layers all the time?
@@MrSergpank I personally have a 34-key keyboard, and I don't have any issues with it. I also spend a lot of time programming, and designed my layout around that and typing. Having arrow keys under a layer is far more comfortable because you don't have to move your hand to reach them, they're accessible under a thumb key and the home row. I only have 2 thumb keys per half, so there's minimal movement. As for switching applications, I personally use Linux with the i3 window manager, but I have a set of Alt, GUI and Ctrl on each layer, so doing something like Alt + Tab is trivial. Here is a decent demo that showcases programming with these tiny boards: ruclips.net/video/IZ83uU0ltaE/видео.html
I think I want to try a low profile corne next. ^^; I bought a sofle kit to put together, but with all of the surface mounted diodes I was a little out of my league. ^^; Where did you get the Corne with through-hole diodes?
I got it from Little Keyboards but you can get it anywhere that sells the "Corne Classic" PCBs. The V2 and up only use surface mount and even more, the V3 only comes in a 3x6 variant without a break off board for 3x5.

Cool! I like it. I also like how you have like a whole separate space for soldering and stuff. Great content!
I have my Corne keyboard that I bought with build in wired controller , honestly I prefer the look and the extra key of 3x6 instead of 3x5.
This fully inspired me to pursue a project like this. Thanks for putting this amazing work out. Truly inspiring 🔥
u dont need to set bottom layers to 1000, just set infill to 100%
great work btw!

@@joe_scotto hmmmm, you are right! great to knew something new, thanks for that )
damn, you have a super sick workplace
Keys for the key god!
Switches for the switch throne!
Awesome video! I'll see that one of the config now
Great video, thank you! Do you have any pictures or video showing the keyboard dampening layers?

Building my first one here soon. Also, I have to know... what's the name of the song during the soldering time lapse?
That's very cool.

Hi, I love this so much! But Im unable to fine this wireless corne build on your github. Am I mistaken?
wow you are genius
Hey! Quick question. Was there any particular reason why you chose to go with that specific iteration of the PCB? (v2) as opposed to something like a v3?
Yes, the v3 doesn’t support the break off column for 3x5 layouts. V1 and V2 do.
I miss a sound test comparing it with a not 100 percent infill case, but other than that nice video!
Good idea, I’ll throw something together at some point.
just got the case i bought ^_^ ...
do you also sell the dampeners? foam and rubber
Cool video. Commenting for the algorithm :)
What’s the latency
Too high to game with but low enough that you don’t notice it typing. You can plug the board in and use it wired if you need the lowest possible latency.
is there input delay on wireless splits? Would it be felt in fighting games where frames are crucial in input?
Yes. There is normal Bluetooth delay however if you plug in the master side it will have normal USB latency on that half. Both halves still will communicate with Bluetooth low energy with I believe 7-30ms of latency, but don’t quote me on that.
Oof. 7-30 would seem to be extremely high. That would mean that you are playing at like 40-60 when you also count in processing and internet delay.. which counts as unplayable
@@iglobrothers645 Ty! I've been trying to get into diying keyboards specifically splits
did you consider something like miryoku?
I guess I should have waited to the end.
I was thinking about using epoxy to make it
Hi
Could you please share the layers that you have configured in this kb?
I can't imagine that 10x3 layout is enough for comfortable coding :)
It is more than enough for coding, I do it all the time and plan on making a video taking about it soon. Here is the keymap: github.com/joe-scotto/zmk-config-corne/blob/main/config/corne.keymap

@@sabbath9503 I must admit that I am very impressed I will try some 34kbrd too
Why not just set infill to 100% instead of playing with bottom layers count ? :)
Infill 100% still has tiny gaps for some weird reason. If you set bottom layers high, you ensure every layer is actually completely solid.

Nice keyboard! Are you going to do the video about the keymap?
Yup, in a few weeks I’ll be releasing that video :)
What keycaps are those?
BoW MT3 from Drop.
How do switch pads help ?
They slightly dampen the sound but honestly not by much.
