As if Ergomechkeyboards needs more Cheapino’s. I had my spare parts laying around and built this for a friend. Thought I’d share a quick photo. Still love this project

      It’s a great first build and first ergo. That was my experience as well. Good luck! Shoot me a dm if that is a thing on lemmy and I’d be happy to help you, discord as well if that’s better 👍

    Looks amazing! How did you get it? Did you buy it all set or you built it yourself?

    BTW, what are these keycaps?

      Built it, it’s a cheap diy option called the Cheapino https://github.com/tompi/cheapino

      Pretty affordable option though at low key count you could likely get a better build for a similar cost. Keycaps are whatever cheap aliexpress I could find hahaha.

      Doing it again I’d go for the badwings that Hazel just posted here

      I think it was too small for them hahah. But they liked the split and programmability. I think they are looking at buying a voyager.
