The Arkenswoop is a Lord of the Rings themed revision of the swoop by jimmerricks (which is a revision of the sweep by David Barr, which is a revision of the Ferris by Pierre Chevalier (yes I found that chain of revisions funny so I included it in its entirety)).

Don’t worry it isn’t just a themed put on it, I added hotswap support, keeping the reversible design and wireless support. I also removed the LEDs, having no use for them ; they are also a huge power draw when in wireless. Encoder was moved a bit to the bottom because it was interfering with the nearest keycap (and the key became stuck upon pressing it, I found it funny at first).

Alas I also screwed up: the switch plate holes are a bit too big (longer than wider) ; easy fix for now was to put some tape and voilà, every holds as the holes are tighter. I might print another plate with smaller holes but for now this is more than fine.

      Easy to use and flash, huge memory is very cool as I wanted to have many layers and macros. I’m also using the general purpose led of the liatris as a layer indicator and the power led as a caps lock one, this is somewhat a big selling point to me.
