I love the different colored halves! keeb.io always has a nice selection of unique boards. 100X better than a Ducky.

How long did it take you to build?

I don't get staggered split at all. Reaching B or Q on your left hand would strain the fingers. In fact, even the curl downwards and slightly to the side on any finger is terrible unless you angle your hands so even when split to shoulder length, the keyboard needs to be angled weirdly.

I think your keyboard might be broken.

Hi, I personally have a staggered split as my first custom keyboard that my bf got me and the appeal at the time was more desk/mouse space, being able to configure a profile for gaming that essentially just lets you use all of the inputs you need on a 30-40% however also being able to just have a regular 60-80% keyboard that you can put back together at anytime for anything other than just gaming.

There's alot more practical concepts for this but I feel as if this retains the fundamental design of a keyboard and its simplicity.

I don't have too weird of an angle when using it whilst gaming however-so I still own a wrist rest for such... which helps tremendously when sitting at an unsuitable height for when I'm not at home.

if it's any consolation; I prefer it to my actual 40% or a full-size as of any matter. idk if this is the answer you was looking for lol but this is just my experience with a split staggered.

Thatā€™s a fair answer. I was just thinking if youā€™re going split for ergo reasons you should improve finger positioning as well so they go straight up and down from home row without any horizontal stagger. Basically if you keep your hands shoulder length apart, youā€™re forced to angle the keyboard otherwise. Iā€™m also not advocating for smaller keyboards, just ortholinear ones like the moonlander.

I love it! I wanted something like the SP-111 but it was too large, now I found the perfect size!

That's also fair, there's definitely more practical design concepts for ergo boards however personal preference and appearance are MASSIVE things in most hobbies, I personally think staggered splits look gorgeous and boards similar to the moonlander are quite ugly in appearance relatively but ultimately can appreciate any design of a custom-made keyboard. Angling isn't an issue for me but that can probably factor down to a many multitude of reasons due to height/desk height/distance

Ooh, I love that look! The pink and blue is a great combo!

Well its to preserve staggering typically found on kbs, however talking about this has inspired an idea to get somewhere between staggered and straight you could extend the T and N keys just a little and then you could reshape the edge of the keys to create a nice convex curve on the inside of the right half of the kb and a matching concave curve on the inside of the left half

Iā€™m not usually one for split keebs, but the colours are nice! Gmk 8008 would fit perfectly on that!
