  1. Build a bastardkb charybdis, quiet challenging and still need to fix some things. But very excited for the potential. And all parts are open source.

  2. Experimented with the keymap for my Skeletyl by #bastardkb.

    Switched to home row mods and took the idea of a layer with num-row on the home row and corresponding symbols above from one of the panelists of @ClickClackHack Late Night episodes (sorry forgot who it was... @ink or @opendev maybe?).

    So far, I'm really happy with my Comfy36 keymap but feedback, suggestions or hints as to how to get Umlaute in QMK configurator would be great!

  3. Update! Everything is assembled and working as of last night. I had to resolder some cold joints. #keyboard #dactylmanuform #bastardkb #qmk

    Nice! I'd love to try out the trackball, it feels like a great position.

    I just finished a #skeletyl build with base plate for camera clamps / joints used to adjust between sitting and standing postures.

    I'm considering building a #dilemma next, for traveling and trips to the office.

  5. Made a new #mechanicalkeyboard! It’s a Charybdis Nano designed by bastardkb, and it’s not for me, it’s for @joenash. This time, I #3dprinted the case, but no handwiring - really cool flexible PCBs. It works non-tented too. Do you want a silly keyboard? I like talking about keyboards and soldering stuff, so maybe I can help. Say hi!

  6. I can already feel how I'll be typing on #skeletyl. One side of rows is done... So far happy, probably have never done a cleaner #soldering job. Let's see how the other side and then columns turn out... #bastardkb #keyboards #diy

    The tough part is the thumb cluster. Ergonomic for the user means hell for the person soldering. If you're both person's, let's hope ergonomics outweighs in the end...

  7. I iterated quit a bit to make this #waveshare pi zero fit into the #bastardkb #skeletyl... Now it will fit perfectly later on I hope.
