I canβt wait for Keychain to make a cheap/accessible ergo split with columnar stagger or ortho.
Yeah, DIYing isn't too expensive when I did it, I think you could do it for around $100 USD for parts, maybe if there are still free sample PCBs available from pcbway or allpcb. That assumes you have a soldering iron and solder and the other tools...
Oh I know I made my own. But I would love to see a major MK brand make an ortho.
Nice, looks good! Which switches and how are you finding it? I had their low profile optical and it sucked, didn't like the low travel and lack of resistance.
Just plain low profile gateron browns.
Really wished they use Kailh Chocs, that way can have a Box clicky lite on them.
I don't know a single person who likes those optical switches. They are just awful.
oh shit man. sorry. looks like they broke it in shipping. Man. bummer. It looks pricey. Will the shipper reimburse?
:D
Looks nice. I want to try alice layout at some point.
What do you use to change the layout, VIA or QMK? I used ZMK on a Lilly58 and I preferred it to QMK/VIA. I used a nice!nano and the wireless was pretty good.
VIA, I'll try ZMK out.
