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

No Spam

No excessive posting/"shilling" for commercial purposes. Vendors are permitted to promote their products/services but keep it to a minimum and use the [vendor] flair. Posts that appear to be marketing without being transparent about it will be removed.

No Buy/Sell/Trade

Hi All,

I've just released all of the design files for the Rolio 46.1 keyboard. They can be found on GitHub below:

https://github.com/MickiusMousius/Rolio46Keyboard

I'll be opening a store in January to sell sub-assemblies & components to make it easier for people to build their own Rolio 46.1 without needing to chase as many components.

Cheers

MickiusMousius

Here are a few more pictures too:

All three chassis variants

EDIT: Note to mods, if I need to add a vendor flair please let me know and I can re-post.

Please do, I’ll be selling the parts in January. But, everything you need to source your own parts is in the GitHub repository too.

i would need to get money first XD

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

lol, yeah, I’ve brought the prices as low as I can, but even then it’s still not cheap compared to a big box store keyboard.

very nice indeed, what keycaps are those tho?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

Custom caps from FKCaps.

They run a top notch service that I highly recommend.

Looks like some custom MBK to me.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

The GitHub provides details on where to get the keycaps and how to customize them.
