Lynx The missing link to a better keyboard. A Split "65%" Keyboard Your desk just found it's newest reigning cat; Lynx is a powerful and agile keyboard that you'll love to use and show off. Based off the traditional 65% Keyboard layout, the Lynx capitalizes on using standard keycap sizes to create the most functional and smallest split keyboard around. We may be biased, but this is the best split keyboard ever. UPDATE: October 2018 - The Lynx will no longer be happening as a kit/GB instead we invite you to Check out the QUEFRENCY65 from Keeb.io

Kayak A 65% DIY Keyboard inspired by the Canoe keyboard. I joined a private group buy for the Canoe keyboard in September 2017, 6 months later I still had no keyboard nor a ship date in sight. Thus I created my own version, the Kayak was born as a meme that tranformed into something beautiful. Thanks to Josh thebeephaha for helping me through the first two revisions. Note: Looking for Digital Downloads? My storefront provider was shut down.

I am in the market setting up a new one. Until then you can't access the

digital downloads, I am sorry! Feel free to email me if you have any issues. Donate to download the .dxf and .svg files to cut your own parts to create your very own Kayak Keyboard. This was designed to use a TADA68 PCB. Revisions: v2 - As depicted in the photos on this page.

v3 - Design altered to be more like the Canoe.

SunDevil Fire & brimstone bellows. Technical Specs::: Doubleshot ABS

DCS Profile

65% and smaller compatability

Signature Plastics: Made in the USA Frequently Asked Questions::: Release Date? DCS Sun Devil will be released at the same time as the Lynx keyboard debuts. TBD whether it will be Group Buy or limited quantity. Why DCS? Due to the overwhelming number of group buys and keycap sets being produced we want to do something a tad different. DCS is a good economical alternative to GMK for a well sculpted profile. Why not add more keys? This set is tailored to 65% and smaller keyboards, specifically to 65% users. It will cover popular 65% board such as: TADA, Clueboard, RedScarf68, M-65a, and even the Exent (including the split spacebar). In the future we may entertain a GMK set that will cover more boards.

About Hi! I am Devin, also known as /u/koduh, I fell in love with 65% keyboards years ago. Lauding them for their superior layout which is the perfect mix of compactness & efficiency. Spending 10+ hours a day at the computer has me constantly searching to make my setup more and more unique and suited to me. I have had many keyboard ideas over the years including: Lynx, Sol, Kayak, and more that never saw much daylight. I dabble in web development and web design which led to making KeyboardCatalog.com and working on creating the best list of 65% keyboards the world has ever seen. Unfortunately I find myself with little time to give to making the above mentioned projects succeed with my ever increasingly busy schedule as a father, manager at work, a clerk at my local church, a husband to my beautiful wife, and wannabe pc gamer. I will still be around to talk keyboards, attend meetups, host build nights, and chat on Discord. But my creation of content in this community is going to take a back seat to my other activities going on. Clack, clack, fellow keyboardists. Connect with me on my Social Media: Twitter

Mail Where does "Sonoran" come from? We are based in Phoenix, AZ which is located in the northern part of the Sonoran Desert: The Sonoran Desert is a North American desert which covers large parts of the Southwestern United States in Arizona and California and of Northwestern Mexico in Sonora, Baja California, and Baja California Sur. It is the hottest desert in Mexico.



The largest city in the Sonoran Desert is Phoenix, Arizona, with a 2013 metropolitan population of about 4.3 million. It is one of the fastest-growing metropolitan areas in the United States. In 2007 in the Phoenix area, desert was losing ground to urban sprawl at a rate of approximately 4,000 square meters per hour.



The Sonoran Desert's biseasonal rainfall pattern results in more plant species than any other desert in the world. The Sonoran is the only place in the world where the famous saguaro cactus grows in the wild.
