A One of a Kind Mechanical Keyboard

You’ll enjoy typing more than ever on this one of a kind mechanical keyboard powered by the Raspberry Pi Pico and BMK, a custom Arduino IDE firmware. With the ability to make each key any color (exactly as clicky and firm or as soft and quiet as you like) and program each key to do anything, you will never look at typing the same again. The tenkeyless 87 key layout Is comfortable to use as an everyday keyboard. The keyboard’s unique design is built from three layers of FR-4 PCB material that screw together to form an attractive keyboard. An integrated 2 port USB hub is available as an add on. And the best part: you can make any key do just about anything!

Custom Firmware

The Pico 87 keyboard is compatible with BMK (Bolt Industries Mechanical Keyboard) and KMK firmware. BMK is a custom firmware written in the Arduino IDE. KMK is a mainstream mechanical keyboard firmware written in Circuit Python. Both firmwares are open source and avalable on the Bolt Industries GitHub Repo.

How it goes together

The Pico 87 keyboard is made of three layers of 1.6mm FR-4 that screw together to form a really solid keyboard. The bottom layer provides rigidity, but it also covers the solder pads. The middle layer holds all of the electronics. The top layer adds rigidity as well as an aesthetic cover. Assembly is required.
