KeebMaker Sweep Bling Split Keyboard

The columnar layout aligns keys in vertical columns rather than the staggered rows found on traditional keyboards. This design mimics the natural movement of your fingers, reducing lateral strain and allowing for a more comfortable, ergonomic typing posture.

Yes. The board features hot-swappable sockets, which means you can easily remove and replace switches without needing to solder. This allows you to experiment with different switch feels or replace a faulty switch in seconds.

With only 34 keys, the Sweep Bling LP relies on layers. You access numbers, symbols, and function keys by holding down a designated layer key, similar to how you use the Shift key for capitalization. It requires a learning curve, but it keeps your hands centered and minimizes reaching.

The Sweep Bling LP uses MBK profile keycaps, which are specifically designed for low-profile switches. While you can use other low-profile keycaps, standard mechanical keyboard keycaps will not fit this board.

The Sweep Bling LP is compatible with QMK and ZMK firmware, the industry standards for custom mechanical keyboards. You can use these tools to remap keys, create macros, and customize your layers to fit your specific workflow.

The low-profile design keeps your hands closer to the desk surface, which helps maintain a neutral wrist angle. This reduces the need for a wrist rest and can significantly decrease fatigue during long typing sessions.
