Custom keyboards by restive.engines

This repository contains design and manufacturing files created by Steven Eisinger (@Shtaiven a.k.a. restive.engines). Everything you need to manufacture one of my keyboards can be found here, including pcbs, cases, and certain keycaps.

For keyboard firmware, please refer to my ZMK config repo.

Designed in 2024. Made to address shortcomings and enhance ergonomics of the shockboard. Ergonomic column staggered keyboard extendable with custom modules using terminal blocks or headers. 14 degree rotation on each half. Compatible with MX, Choc v1, and Choc v2 switches.
