I had a similar set of typing habits when I started and found that the bfo9000 suited my needs, may be worth a try for you.

In a perfect world, yeah totally. I could use controllers that are approximately twice the price (nice!nanos) and have to rewrite the firmware (qmk -> zmk) and deal with Bluetooth, or I could just use wires and have it “just work™”. I personally prefer this, but tons of people go the wireless route.

I have a larger build and nailing down the ergonomics is really hard without a split board.

I could also use either half independently. (with a quick firmware change on the right, but still)

Pro reds, for now

I use one for volume and one for scrolling right now.

Prototype Complete - Swirl Split Keyboard

First Working Prototype Complete - Swirl Split Keyboard - Lemmy.world

It’s not done yet, but I figured I’d show off a little bit since I have been using this for a few weeks now. This is the “swirl”. It’s heavily inspired by the helix with some notable changes: - mbk Choc Spacing (Dimensions are about 12.5cm x 8.5cm on either half) - Reversible roller encoders on the top inner switch https://github.com/vmorganp/swirl [https://github.com/vmorganp/swirl]

Definitely your prerogative if you like it. I personally have bigger hands so I like keeping my momentary layer keys on the bottom inner button for my thumbs.

[PCB Review Request] "Swirl" a choc-spaced helix-like board with reversible thumb encoders instead of a top inner button

[PCB Review Request] "Swirl" a choc-spaced helix-like board with reversible thumb encoders instead of a top inner button - Lemmy.world

Hey guys, not sure if we do PCB reviews in this group, but I figured I’d give it a shot since I know it was a thing that happened over in the bad website. It’s essentially a 5x6+1+encoder board. Images below and open source hardware repo is linked. kicad render for the juicy thumbnail [https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/df8d68fc-e6c7-4caf-a95b-995f567262a9.png] Front [https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/6a92596f-212e-439e-8083-25cad0c6df2d.png] Back [https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/5c721f4c-f50c-495f-acba-0caf57fa838a.png] This is baby’s first PCB design, so feel free to tear me a new one in the comments so I can make good boards.
