Awesome build! The switches look neat!

I made the mistake of not getting a kit when building my TBK mini with per-key RGB. Hand-soldering what feels like hundreds of connections between MxLEDBits is not fun :/

Enjoy your keeb, it looks amazing! How is the trackball sensitivity btw?

I can imagine the pain soldering the single key pcbs and then wiring them. I think if i did another build, i would skip the per key LEDs entirely…

Trackball is pretty good. The sensor and PCB are great and it i like the position now that i have gotten used to it. The ball bearings are not perfect, but go a long way. Maybe one day i will look into BTUs. There is a mod that uses a trackpad instead, which i would be willing to try out of sheer cusiosity.

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
