+Tripel is a 15x4+1x5 key ortholinear keyboard PCB.
+
+The goal of this project is to build a pro-micro powered ortholinear PCB that fits in a standard 60%   tray mount case but built from sub-100x100mm PCB boards.
+
+* Designed to be easy to build with minimal soldering experience.
+* Built from 3 of the same PCB.
+* 7u spacebar bottom row.
+

+
+# Bill of Materials (BOM)
+
+* 3 PCBs.
+* 65 MX compatible switches.
+* 65 1n4148 diodes.
+* Pro Micro controller (or compatible alternative).
+* Through-hole USB mini or micro connector.
+* USB cable for Pro Micro.
+
+# Ordering PCBs
+
+PCBs can be manufactuered by a variety of online PCB fabricators. You can use [PCBShopper](https://pcbshopper.com/) to search for the best price.
+
+The zip file in the gerber directory contains the gerber files your fabricator will need to make the PCB [tripel.zip](https://github.com/peej/tripel-keyboard/blob/master/gerber/tripel.zip) PCB.
+
+When uploading the gerber zip files, use the default PCB settings.
+
+# Construction
+
+* You will need 3 PCBs.
+* Solder the diodes onto the underside of each PCB.
+* Solder on the Pro Micro headers (or a 24 pin DIP socket) onto the underside of each PCB, do not solder on the Pro Micros yet.
+* Insert the switches into the plate.
+* Place the three PCBs onto the switches:
+  * The left and middle PCBs should the way around indicated by the soldermask.
+  * The right PCB should be flipped over left to right.
+  * Insert all the switches and ensure that the pins of each switch are correctly coming through the board and are not bent under the PCB.
+* Solder all the switch pins.
+* Solder the solder bridges between the PCBs:
+  * Soldering the switches in place ensure that the PCBs line up correctly for soldering the bridges,
+  * Solder both 3 pad bridges and both 8 pad bridges on the back of the PCBs.
+* Solder on the Pro Micro:
+  * Ensure that you have it the correct way around, the chip side should be face down towards the PCB with the USB port to the right.
+  * You might want to remove the plastic from the header pins so that the Pro Micro can be mounted as close to the PCB as possible.
+  * Use electrical tape underneath the Pro Micro if you think shorting against the switch pins could be an issue.
+* Solder on the USB connector.
+* Cut your USB cable to length and solder the wires to the pins for the USB connector.
+* Flash the Pro Micro with the firmware, see the [QMK documentation](http://qmk.fm/) on how to build and flash the firmware.
