ErgoMechKeyboards
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

What about something like the mini36 by controllerworks?
Holy shit that's beautiful. Do you have one?
I've got one from the first batch and it's great.
Have you shared pics of it before? I’d like to see
here's a picture I took after getting it
It's a great board but sadly it's just been sitting on a shelf. I need a more aggressive stagger on the pinky.
My universe for an aluminum Swoop case...
Did the short trrs cable come with it?
no, it came with a longer one. This is some cheap one I found on aliexpress
Oh I dig it! How aggressive of a pinky stagger are you looking for? I’m currently using a chocofi but was thinking about grabbing one of those for work.
I like the pinky dropped .75U. I ended up designing my own keyboard to better for my needs.
