1# 3W6

5The 3w6 is a low profile, split ortholinear keyboard with 36 keys.

7I needed a keyboard for work and wasn't really satisfied with the available alternatives (namely Corne, Kyria and Ferris), mostly because they are either rather large and/or don't have the spacing I would like.
8
9The 3w6 is designed to be a simple, realiable, cheap and small keyboard to be taken everywhere.

11There are currently two revisions:
12* Rev1:
13 - onboard microcontroller (ATMega32U4)
14 - USB-C connector Board <-> PC
15 - USB-C connectors between both split halfs
16 - choc spacing (18x17mm)
17 - aggressive pinky stagger
18 - support for Choc V1 switches
19* Rev2:
20 - everything Rev1 did
21 - additional middle plate (2mm)
22 - support for [Pimoroni Trackball](https://shop.pimoroni.com/products/trackball-breakout) instead of outer thumb switch on right half, needs midplate
23 - mounting holes for [Tenting Puck](https://splitkb.com/collections/keyboard-parts/products/tenting-puck), only usable without mid or switchplate
