Looking for some testimonials on these setups as I’m due for a keyboard upgrade. I like the thought of spreading my arms a bit more and the external wrist rotation from the tenting. Any suggestions?

I’m going down that rabbit hole as well - I’ve already built a handwired 3d printed keyboard and my current project is a split with a 4-way switch as a thumb cluster - inspired by the Fulcrum and in case I need a different cluster, this part of the case is modular.
My next build was (probably) going to be a remix of the iris and I wanted to include a joystick so I could use it 4 ways (towards left, highlight words to left; to right, layer; up down, vol controls).
I’d never come across 4/5 way switches before so that’s definitely something I’ll be looking into! Thanks for sharing!!
What CAD program do you use for designing your cases?
Ah you’re right, it’s a 5 way switch - forgot the “push” action. I’m using realthunders’ branch of FreeCAD - it is really convenient to use compared to the normal release.
Oh I might have to take a look at that, I also use FreeCAD! Damn look at all these things you’re introducing me to 😂
That’s awesome, glad to hear that! If you’re still learning it like me, I can really recommend the videos by OficineRobotica on YouTube (like quick recap on some additions to the branch and the series about building a Raspberry Pi case)
Oh definitely still learning, I watched maybe 2 videos and just jumped into it, so the way I use FreeCAD is (probably) very inefficient. I was also looking at learning OnShape just cause I’d heard of it/seen it mentioned on r/3dprinting before and a youtuber I follow (StuffMadeHere) who’s mind is just next level incredible plugged it.
Hehe, yes StuffMadeHere is absolutely amazing. My first FreeCAD project is really messy with lots of boolean operations and no part bodies. That’s why I will only publish the STL files.
