Hi folks, I’ve been working on this keyboard pretty much since January of this year, and I’ve finally got it to the point that I can call it done! If you’d like to build one, all files are available here.
This is an MX-based keyboard, 36 keys with integrated trackball. The github page has a bunch more details. I also have a choc version in dev using the same style that’s based off the Trinidox.
Let me know what you think!

Ok, ya should totally be possible to have 2 trackballs. You made me think I should provide details about the trackball placement philosophy on the github page… I’ve been neck deep in this design for so long, I’ve forgotten many of the design features that makes it unique. Touch base of you make one! Would be awesome to see a double trackball version :-)

I built it using amoeba royales. It’s certainly tight. I modeled the amoebas plus components and had a cutter to create the necessary space, so that part was pretty easy. The tightest key is the bottom row on the left most column (for the right side case with trackball). It fits but needs a little jiggling.
