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

I'm so torn; while I'm glad to not be supporting the mess that reddit was devolving into. I miss the shear volume of content that was on Ergo Mech Keyboards.

Also, it's killed sales! So why not have a sale, for more sales?! https://www.etsy.com/shop/TheBigSkree

Or if you want to hit me up directly: www.skree.us or on here, or email me at [email protected]. Discord too; Alakuu or Skree_LLC

I offer what, I and many of my customers have stated as the best FDM BLE dactyls you can buy!

Lots of super cool things being cooled in the background like near solderless flexible PCB, MCU, and custom thumb single key pcb support for any kind of keyboard building!

That's a very old version, but the idea is to offer JST and FPC options that either support my flexible pcb ecosystem or with JST cables you can solder to ANY existing pcbs you'd want! The MCU I'm dubbing the "pad" allows for either the use of the built in LIR2450 battery or use of any size Lithium battery you want if you solder to the battery pads! More details to follow once I get the final revision pcbs in and tested.

RGB underglow; finally got a order and it turned out super neat!

Choc v1 dactyls are basically done, just need to order switches in volume so I can keep my normal out the door in ~1-4 days. I'll have more traditional thumb clusters (maybe advantage like too?) when I put up listings. If you want to try my weird design let me know! I've got the flexible pcbs that I'll be selling for Choc v1 here soon too!

Dactyl-CC. I've seen this repo for a while and with my current work on providing Kinesis switch replacement and general board repair I figured I'd try it. The board feels pretty spot on to the Advantage line!

Speaking of Kinesis! How about some Heartbeat switches on a 360pro?

If you want to have your switches professionally replaced, or if you have a old, broken, or misbehaving Kinesis keyboard I'd gladly talk with you and figure out a solution!

There's tons more, I'm a bit scattered. With the big sales slump I'm blaming on the lack of eyeballs that were on Reddit (hoping it's not general economic downturn stuff) I'm less able to finalize products. But I'll get more interesting things out the door very soon!

Nice. Thinking about ordering a dactyl pcb.
