Got RSI from coding at job circa 2016 and bought this baby for $350. I’m using it as long as possible, but I would love a metal splittyboi

    Do you know of any projects that include the PCBs for the switches? I’ve only found the controller PCBs so far.

      don’t remember anything recently (was under the impression BastardKB had something but I can’t find anything on the website) – and it seems most people working on Dactyl variants usually end up just using the Amoeba PCBs because they’re easier to source …

        Working with Amoebas was my back up plan. I might have to retrace the thumb PCB, as my older kinesis would not work with the king replacement controller. But that’s a project for next winter :-D

      I’m in the works on a solution with hotswap but I’m not there just yet.

        Interested to see how that works. What I’ve heard so far from diy dactyl/Skeletyl builds is that the curvature of the flexible PCB makes some glue or similar necessary.

          Glue to some extent on the advantage 2 because it doesn’t have mounting tabs like the 360 and 360 pro line has.

          The BastardKB pcbs look to have the same problems the kinesis does
