It feels weird to me to see the Enter and \ switches being rotated for ansi layout, the Cherry MX spec doesn’t have a symmetrical stem

Great idea! I wish I had one of these. Maybe I can find someone with one at a local meetup. So after doing this, is your |\ (pipe) keycap level? Mine is slightly elevated on the left hand side, and I found that for some keycaps, my switches will reject the cap and forcefully push it off :stuck_out_tongue: I haven’t noticed any issues with the Enter key.

Mine seems level - it probably depends on the switch, and if it has any resting N/S tilt. I know when I was working on one of these for a buddy a while back I was having issues with the pipe key appearing slightly rotated - I think I may have ended up using a different switch for that key on his build.

Good point! I will say I used the Wuque stabs in mine, but didn’t noticed the same issues you mentioned. Honestly, I really like that board. Super easy to throw in a backpack and take to and from the office. I also think I have come to really prefer this style 65% layout over the standard 65% with one blocker on the bottom row. Having the arrow keys be that little extra exploded really seems to help me find them better.

I dig the little display that protrudes.

Where’d you find a clear version anyway?

It is custom case :joy:

Ah, okay, that makes a lot more sense now.

I must have these. Looks like they’re a Sam’s Club exclusive, but I wonder if they’re just the same as the LoRA versions they sell elsewhere?

Looks as good as my gray Fjell. Banana Splits on brass is not bad but I found Black Lotus on FR4 is pretty good on Fjell.

The nice thing about these tray mounts is that they are so easy to swap internals out. There is a lot to explore with this one, and I’ll likely try many different builds.

The Fjell is still so good to look at.
