Finite,

I think Jason Statham is also in this one

Finite,

At least it’s usable. My last pcb I screwed up the gaetreon holes completely. Why do they make key switches so obnoxious.

First keyboard build! (slrpnk.net)

So, after some playing around trying to figure out a preferred physical layout, I decided a Hillside 46 splayed keyboard would be about right. Thanks to Leo at Beekeeb for answering all my questions before ordering and during the build! Surface mount soldering was tricky, but everything works on the first try! I finally can use...

Finite,

I think I’m going to try 3d printing an ergogen case with the keys extruded to check the layout before committing on my next keyboard

Finite,

This is a slightly modified colemak.

Finite,

Some low profile off Amazon, dagaladoo XVX 125 Keys Low… www.amazon.com/dp/B0C84C4KCH?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_s…

Finite,

Well, I had intended to have my pinkies rest on the outside of the board for a traditional keyboard feel, but I screwed up and my indexes are now on the inner columns.

You also don’t have a real feel for spread or stagger until you put it all together.

I tried regular key caps but they’re too big, and if you’re looking for a modified key layout most key cap sets are saddled and curved.

So, that being said, low profile switches and key caps is the way to go. It also helps to know the difference between mx, kahli, and gateron keys

Finite,

I think the hardest was the firmware. Everything else was integration

Finite,

This was a fatal flaw that I didn’t realize until I had ordered the PCB. You’re right, the pinky has two columns, which isn’t as bad as you’d expect.

I still home row on asrt, which I’m really starting to enjoy. I need homing nubs on the keys and I tend to miss click on the top pinky

Finite,

This is wild, nice job!
