Sweep is a version of the more fabulous [Ferris](https://github.com/pierrechevalier83/ferris) by [Pierre Chevalier](https://github.com/pierrechevalier83/) that uses a daughter board like a promicro, elite-c, bit-c, nice!nano etc. instead of using onboard components. ## What are the different types? | Device | Bluetooth Support<sup>[1]</sup> | On/Off Switch | Reversible PCB | Choc V1 | Choc V2 | Choc Mini | MX & Alps | Choc Spacing<sup>[2]</sup> | Tenting<sup>[3]</sup> | | :--- | :---: | :---: | :---: | :---: | :---: | :---: | :---: | :---: | :---: | | Sweep2.x | ✔ | ✔ | | ✔ | | | | ✔ | ✔ | | Sweep High | ✔ | ✔ | | ✔ | ✔ | | ✔ | | ✔ | | Sweep Half Swept | ✔ | ✔ | ✔ | ✔ | | | | ✔ | ✔ | | Sweep Compact Low | ✔ | | ✔ | | | ✔ | | ✔ | | *<sup>[1]</sup> It simply means that it supports the nice!nano. An on/off switch is recommended for bluetooth* *<sup>[2]</sup> Choc spaced boards have the switches in a tighter grid. This provides a better final look but is only compatible with some choc keycaps (e.g. MBK)* *<sup>[3]</sup> Supports splitkb's [tenting puck](https://splitkb.com/products/tenting-puck?_pos=1&_psq=tenting%20&_ss=e&_v=1.0)* * Sweep2 - Recommended Choc v1 board with all the features. * Sweep High - Same as the Sweep2 but trades choc spacing for compatibility with more switches and keycaps. * Sweep Half Swept - Half of a Sweep2 with double pro-micro footprint (letting you avoid having one daughter-board flipped upside-down) * Sweep Compact Low - The only version that supports Choc minis. ## Components list To build a Sweep you will need: * 1x PCB Kit * 2x promicro compatible boards or 2 nice!nanos. * 34 switches of a compatible type (refer to the compatibility table) * 34 keycaps * 2x reset switches (optional; [B3U-1000P(M)](https://github.com/davidphilipbarr/Sweep/issues/20)) * Some little rubber feet/bumpers * 2x power switches (optional if supported; MSK 12C02) ## How do I make this thing? <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fBPu7AyDtkM" target="_blank"> <img src="https://gist.githubusercontent.com/duckyb/337340baa1f0c8bcc06fef7b3b57242b/raw/97e6e0748dd1b8a3fb54fac0a88e84e6b6e0e10a/build-guide-button.svg" height="44"> </a> ## Firmware The firmware can be found [with the Ferris firmware as part of QMK](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/tree/master/keyboards/ferris/sweep). Firmware for zmk and bluemicro_ble is called ["Cradio"](https://zmk.dev/docs/hardware/). ## Who made this? * [Pierre Chevalier](https://github.com/pierrechevalier83) * [David Barr](https://github.com/davidphilipbarr) * [Ibnu Daru Aji](https://github.com/ibnuda/) * [Duccio](https://github.com/duckyb)
