Ergonomic, split and other weird keyboards
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

Seems like a pretty cool service. I've been considering building a low profile keyboard and it's been difficult to find anything except blank sets. Prices seem reasonable too (MBK PBT laser engraved):
Ex: $54.00 for 40 keys, $73.20 for 60 keys, $97.60 for 80 keys, $15.00 for 10 keys
I had a batch of custom keycaps come in from FK Custom, so I decided to do a quick side-by-side comparison with them. Don't forget, their custom keycap contest is still going on for another week or so!
Oh, neat! It would be fun to make keycaps with my full layout. Or, I dunno, something weird like shavian orthography
I already have a set from FK Custom. The laser engraving is very good, clean lines, nothing blurred or rippled or so. It's definitely high quality.
