Produced by DirkMcGirk using the Swiss Cheese mono font designed by Rob Meyerson, the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.designboom.com\/tag\/personal-technology\/\">device<\/a><span> comes with 104 keycaps, which all resemble a block of Swiss cheese and its distinctive, natural holes. There are custom-shaped accent keys around it that hint at a charcuterie board: a mouse, a cheese grater and a set of knives, a wine bottle, and a jar of jam. The maker says, however, that these extra keys are under a different license, so users who want to build their own Swiss cheese mechanical keyboard need to get permission before using them or pay for them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>all images courtesy of DirkMcGirk, unless stated otherwise<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wow wow-yellow\">Swiss cheese mechanical keyboard with mono font<\/h2>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span>The <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/makerworld.com\/en\/@DirkMcGirk\">maker<\/a><span> DirkMcGirk uses the mono font designed by Rob Meyerson for the Swiss cheese mechanical keyboard. In 2024, the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.heirloomagency.com\/\">designer<\/a><span> created a series of yellow keys with holes around them, and the result gave him a font that is bold, square-shaped, and only has capital letters. He intentionally put the holes in specific areas to allow the letters to be visible when looked at, even if these letters come through clearer when the user views them from afar. The font is also monospaced, so every letter takes up the same amount of space as if it were on a typewriter.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span>The designer says that the Swiss cheese font used in the mechanical keyboard is meant for display, meaning it is much more ideal for paragraph and title use instead of typing long texts. From here, the maker DirkMcGirk uses these Swiss cheese-shaped keycaps and puts them on a mechanical keyboard, adding a set of accessories that complete the look of a functional charcuterie device. He says that at first, the small keycaps had a problem with bridging, or when the plastic stretches over a key gap, but when he changed the setting called Infill or Wall Overlap to 50 percent, the keycaps fit better. So far, the maker has uploaded how he built the Swiss cheese mechanical keyboard using Rob Meyerson\u2019s design for users who want to create their own.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>detailed view of the device<\/p>\n<p>the typing tool has keycaps that look like a grater, a set of knives, and a jar of jam<\/p>\n<p>the device is complete with a number keypad<\/p>\n<p>knives keycaps for the command buttons<\/p>\n<p>view of the bottle of wine and cheese grater keycaps<\/p>\n<p>\t<!-- CLOSE ARTICLE CONTENT --><\/p>\n<div class=\"fullwidth-image\">\n<div class=\"layout-box\">\n<div class=\"page-content\">\n<p>view of the keyboard<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>\t<!-- OPEN ARTICLE CONTENT -->\t<\/p>\n<p>the mono font designed by Rob Meyerson<\/p>\n<p>the holes are intentionally placed to let the letters stand out<\/p>\n<p>\t<!-- CLOSE ARTICLE CONTENT --><\/p>\n<div class=\"fullwidth-image\">\n<div class=\"layout-box\">\n<div class=\"page-content\">\n<p>the design came out in 2024<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>\t<!-- OPEN ARTICLE CONTENT -->\t<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>project info:<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>name:<span> Swiss cheese mechanical keyboard<\/span><\/p>\n<p>designs: <a href=\"https:\/\/makerworld.com\/en\/@DirkMcGirk\">Dirk McGirk<\/a><span>, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.heirloomagency.com\/\">Rob Meyerson<\/a><span> | <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/robmeyerson\">@robmeyerson<\/a><span>, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/heirloom\">@heirloom<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.designboom.com\/design\/swiss-cheese-mechanical-keyboard-caps-grater-knives-jar-jam-08-19-2025\/\">swiss cheese mechanical keyboard types with caps shaped like grater, knives and jar of jam<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.designboom.com\/\">designboom | architecture &amp; design magazine<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Keycaps shapes like knives and jar of jam \u00a0 The Swiss cheese mechanical keyboard has keycaps that look like a grater, a set of knives, and a jar of jam.
