Old version in the back, new version in the front. Fresh off the printing bed. Haven’t tested it yet, but pretty happy on first inspection. Have a few sneaky features. Aiming to release it in a month or so to the community. Using it as an excuse to try out Lemmy :-)
Controller will be a PI pico from We Act, the old version is using a blackpill. Under the hood, it’s running QMK. I also have an MX version in the works, actually it’s currently my daily driver, hmut there’s some small tweaks that need to be made…trackball positioning is super hard to get right.
Curious, what is it missing from your ideal keyboard? I’m open to making changes…
Fewer keys is the main one, I whittled my layout on a preonic down to 34 keys and have a ferris sweep now which I am very happy with.
I want to try some more options in terms of form factor, but keep the same key count, a 34 key dactyl was next on my list, with the idea of integrating a trackball potentially.
There are a few builds out there with the dactyl + trackball combo, but every person that makes and shares their process makes it easier for the next person, so kudos to you.
Ah OK…I have a 36 key MX variant also close to being released which is closer to what you’re after…assuming you’re OK with MX.
This is exactly what I would be interested in as well. This looks really great
The MX version? Hoping to release it this weekend :-)
