The pcb is an edit of MangoIV's le_chiff_ble drop-in replacement courtesy of dreipunkteinsvier (unpublished as of now).

[Edit: It's obviously running ZMK firmware. Edit2: Tried fixing images by reuploading... ]

Case is Bubbleology's fantastic 3dp design (closed source).

Alphas are MT3 (2048 Katakana), thumbs 3dp DES by Pseudoku (mjf print from jlc).

I really enjoy the board, but the thumbs are waaaay too tucky for me 😅 I basically can't reach the 1.25u ones without significant discomfort / moving my entire hand. Good thing it's got a few too many keys for my taste so i can just ignore those thumbs :D

Do the thumb keys do the h-line and f-line modifiers? I've never seen a katakana board in action.

it's just the legends, i'm not typing katakana with it 😅

Yeah... I took one look at that image and my thumbs started cramping up right away. ;)

It does look very snazzy, though!

when ignoring the tucky thumb keys it's quite nice :)

Nice Schiff ;-) Do you want to add a pic from the inside, showing the silk?

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Oh, sure! And maybe post some pics of your own chiffs, too! 😏

You're right, I really should

How much of this was soldered by you vs the pcb manufacture? Boards without a separate MCU have always fascinated me, but I haven't been able to price one out because haven't been able to figure out how to use JLBPCP's pcb assembly service.

I only soldered the mcu module and the hs sockets. Usually also prefer seperate mcu board for flexibility and repairability

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
