I built this after borrowing a Preonic and slowly reducing the keymap to a 34 key layout. Touch typing actually feels good on it compared to row staggered boards.
I’m looking now to what I will do next, I’m still stoked with it after four months usage. As an excuse to try more designs I will probably build a 34 key dactyl manuform for home.
If you’re interested in trying to go even smaller, check out Ben Vallack’s video about his 16 key layout. He mentions in the video maybe wanting to switch to an 18 key layout and what he’d do with those extra keys, and he did eventually move to 18 keys.
