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

As in 5 rows 7 columns? My flexible pcbs can be linked together for infinity columns.
https://www.etsy.com/listing/1367143291/dactyl-flexible-pcbs-4-and-5-high I'm out of populated 5r pcbs but I just got the pick and place machine populating diodes (I'm short on hotswaps but they're super easy to solder).
Thanks so much for the reply!
It looks like I would need to buy three 5x6 PCBs to cover two 5x7 Dactyl Manuforms. I noticed that you have two units of the 5x6 Wired remaining so I'll have to wait until there's a restock. Any estimates on when? Thanks!
Wired I can do more of. Just order two I have spares for the extras I'll gladly just include. The actual cost in time is minimal for the extras.
