I’m thinking about printing my own Dactyl exactly to my measurements but I don’t want to print too many iterations before landing on my preferred layout. Any tips on how I could achieve that?
you could take my model and replace the cylindrical column spacing for pinkie and index with a flat spacing to have something less intense.
i don’t have a clone, but it would be easy to do, for the dactyl fingers. the columns have a standard spacing I believe and the rows are placed on a cylinder with some radius and and a fixed angle (π/32 radians maybe?). then you can either replicate the column and Z stagger they use or tune your own.
the DM thumb is actively bad for me tho so if start with a simple 3 key arc (i think there is a tester for the arc placement) and add and remove keys as you try it out.
