I have one of these boards, backlit with trackpad, AND the dock AND itronix tablet-computer that they used in the police cars (but the tablet is SUPER-outdated)

Clearly you meant to say shif t keys..?

Btw, you missed 272....

The sexyness is strong in this one.

You are not alone in the waiting, but if you stop asking, he can use the time to sort, package and ship instead of reading and answering

OMG, this, GH60 AND ergodox Infinity happening.. and I had ALMOST got rid of my keyboard addiction..

Happy to see you got the CNC up and running, Matteo!

What CAM have you used on the keycap? I have not started playing around with 3D milling yet

I think it would be ok, I have a 3Dconnexion SpacePilot pro for moving around in 3D space, and it has a similar interface.
With a design similar to what Lowpoly suggests, you would have 3-4 fingers in contact with the ball at all times, and you would hold it stationary when pushing down, when ...

I like the sketch Lowpoly did, as for buttons, how about if you press the ball down to do left-clicks and a switch that is natural for the thumb to press for right-clicks, and twist to scroll (need to be some kind of threshold to distinguish accidental and intended twisting)

maybe use some kind of ...

A long overdue picture of my favourite board; the bpiphany symmetric stagger board
Although it has ruined normal (without backspace on right thumb) keyboards for me
(need to get a proper camera, cellphone sucks)



Could use a new case thou...

From the Commodore facebook page earlier today;

"Do you want a C64x?
Jeremy Altman has announced he is selling the remaining stock of the C64x Barebone cases.
These are available directly from him @ $250 each plus shipping.
You need to install the mini ITX main board & HD of your choice.
There ...

Mr_peck.
What board is that, and do you plan on getting rid of it?

That was the initial plan, but I want to go with a no screw approach :p

In Norway the € is on AltGr+E, making the £$€ signs grouped together and still pretty logically laid out (on a qwerty layout)

Thanks guys, I am making a new plate for the trackball, going for a now-screw look, as the screws really screws up the look.. (so many puns)

Muirium, I actually think that is some kind of fish, some kind of freaky fish....

...I need to find a super-high-quality industrial large ball trackball. I'm sure there's one somewhere, maybe on an old factory machine or submarine missile targeting computer. Yeah, that's what I need.

or on ebay :twisted:

sounds like a good idea

nice to see that you decided to buy a CNC:)
What machine did you buy?

well, currently sitting at Copenhagen aiport with my tablet pc, did not think about using ctrl+c/ctrl+v... ;p

I have no clue on how I should write your name (get a normal one like everyone else :lol: ), but if you take a quick look on page 1, I do actually have one of the original biphany symmetric stagger boards, and I love it, except for its size, that is why I want to make a 60% version :D

After ...

in that case, it was not a good idea at all hehe

I like the suggestions, Suka.
I have used the same layout on my other symmetric stagger board, and I like it like this.
And the size will stay the same, as I am using a aluminium 60% case that is made for poker and pure.

the idea about using a timeout and the same keys for mouse and keyboard is ...

Thanks,
Lowpoly uses this on his 60% board so I might have to look for that one also.

Megnin, How many hands do you have? more than the two normal people are equiped with?
Nice collection BTW, I must admit that I am a little jealous.

So I broke a promise I made to myself; I am starting a new project before finishing one of my ongoing projects...

I present my custom symmetric stagger 60%;

as you might have spotted, there is a trackpoint in the middle, I need to find a usable and easily ...

I have been doing my share of spamming 7bot with ordering stuff and changing my order today
have not received a updated total for the last coupe of hours so I might have broken it hehe

She is even dirtier than the average pornstar...

Does not look the same as the one Compgeke has.. :p

Nice board, Compgeke, what is it?

Late santa is awesome santa!

That is great Tinnie,

But I guess the delay is your fault, as you wrote "ship by 7. December" in the original thread, but you did not write what year... :p
