Hey everyone, I’m doing a giveaway for the Keebtalk community. I just recently purchased some plates from @LaserBoost and happened to find a Golden Ticket in my box. Alas, I have no ideas of what I’d use it for and so I thought maybe one of you could use it better!
I’d like to make a case for a Ergodox-like keyboard that works for people with small pinkies like me - I can normally don’t reach the Q key on a Ergodox/Iris/Atreus with my pinkie, but have to move my entire hand or use my ring finger.
I’m looking to make an ortholinear plate for the Vortex Race 3 aluminium case. I love my Race but I’m not using it because of my Planck, so I want to handwire a ortho layout that fits within the Race’s case.
I’d use it to finally create something of my own design. I’ve been floating this idea around in my head for a while, but basically a 65% board with an extra column on each side for volume controls, macros, etc.
I’m in the Boardwalk GB, but the problem is going to be mounting it with the non-standard standoff positions in the Race 3’s case. Plus once my Boardwalk is built, I’ll need another bigger project and I’ve not handwired a board yet.
