Ergonomic, split and other weird keyboards
Rules
Keep it ergo
Posts must be of/about keyboards that have a clear delineation between the left and right halves of the keyboard, column stagger, or both. This includes one-handed (one half doesn't exist, what clearer delineation is that!?)
i.e. no regular non-split¹ row-stagger and no non-split¹ ortholinear²
¹ split meaning a separation of the halves, whether fixed in place or entirely separate, both are fine.
² ortholinear meaning keys layed out in a grid

It's an honor!
Now that you've been with it for a few, how does it feel to use?
I also like these cheap kailh choc keycaps. Realizing I prefer flat keycaps for choc switches. Maybe it's the longtime laptop user in me speaking.
I use full splits even wider but it feels pretty good to me. I'm getting more used to 34 keys, I think ortho helps me organize my keymap better in my head for some reason. And I'm actually really liking choc robins, great bite of clicky "tactility"
That's so wide! Was this just to create hand spacing without a split board? What did you make it out of?
Exactly, I wanted to go superwide without fully splitting. That and I actually wanted all that acreage of PCB uncluttered by ~~cruft~~ additional features.
