- Zoom65 EE with case and PCB foam
- GMK WoB
- AEBoards Naevies V2 stock
This is my sixth keyboard (fourth custom). The experience has been extremely good considering the mostly stock setup.
Though I am going to stick with this for a while, I do know my next will be a split ergo. Do share your suggestions for a wireless split ergo.

That wrist rest is amazing! I mean, obviously the keeb is nice, but that wrist rest...
AusatKeyboardPremi@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 3y
Haha. I agree. Orca’s wrist rest elevates even the most boring setups.

I agree! Right now, I have an old 80s computer drawer, which I use for my monitor and the keyboard. It's definitely not "pretty", but I love the antique look. I'll try to post a picture later.

Old meets new.
I look forward to the picture of your setup. :-)

Once I get home, I'll snap and post. I'll let you know here that I posted it, so it doesn't get missed haha
Fair warning, my kb isn't super special, but it's super comfortable to type on.
AusatKeyboardPremi@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 3y
There are very few objectively good things in this hobby, as everything boils down to preference.
If your keyboard is super comfortable, then it is ticking the right boxes. :-)

A truest thing has not been said hahaha

I posted it. Here is is for easy find https://infosec.pub/post/345723
I hope the link works for you. I'm on infosec.pub

I am unable to engage there. It is asking me to log in.
Regardless, the C1 is a great choice. With the modification you made, I can see it being super comfortable to type on. :-)
I will see if I can post a few questions in your post about the Glove80.

Weird. I posted it on this community. I just went directly to https://lemmy.ml/c/mechanicalkeyboards and can't find it. Still getting used to Lemmy :/

Tight, I like it!

i've got a split ortho keyboard called corne (you can check my post history for assembly and final result pics), and for a split ergonomic keyboard i'd strongly recommend going for a wireless version (if available) and i wouldn't recommend ortho layout unless you're super committed (if you ever type on smth like a laptop, switch back and forth between ortho and non-ortho is a huge pain, while switching between split and non-split is perfectly fine)
AusatKeyboardPremi@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 3y
You bring up the right concerns.
I am aware of the pains with switching to an ortholinear layout, and have experienced it when I briefly used a friend’s Sofle. Unfortunately, most of the open source designs are ortholinear.
A layout similar to Corne is what I have in mind as well as I hope to reuse most of my existing keycap sets.

Very clean!
AusatKeyboardPremi@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 3y
Thank you. I was aiming for a clean and minimal aesthetic with the setup.
I plan to post my entire desk setup on a relevant community. I am not sure if there is a community yet to share desk setups similar to the battlestation subreddit.
Deltoids@lemm.ee · 2 pts · 3y
Have you found any battlestation subs on lemmy or kbin yet?
AusatKeyboardPremi@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 3y
I haven’t found an active one yet. Have you?
I may try posting in one of the dormant ones.
Deltoids@lemm.ee · 1 pts · 3y
Haven't found any just buildapc but it's not that active yet.
Pazuzu@sh.itjust.works · 2 pts · 3y
Volume knob in the top right corner?
AusatKeyboardPremi@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 3y
Yep. Rotating the encoder knob controls the volume, while pressing it toggles play/pause.
Pazuzu@sh.itjust.works · 2 pts · 3y
I love it.
FirstWizardZorander@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 3y
Ooh, that's clean!
What's the '00' key for? Layer or just two zeroes?
AusatKeyboardPremi@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 3y
Thanks.
Yes, I do use it to switch layers.
Having said that, it would be pretty fun if it just inserted two zeroes. :D

Love the wood wrist rest
Tagger@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 3y
That is a thing of beauty.
AusatKeyboardPremi@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 3y
Indeed! Thank you.
Please do share your setup!
Tagger@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 3y
I use a laptop with the stock keyboard. Which I realise is probably sacrilegious here.
AusatKeyboardPremi@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 3y
Hahaha. Do you plan to get into the hobby? Or are you here out of interest? :-)
Tagger@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 3y
Just came across it on all, honestly. While I love the idea of the hobby I don't type anywhere near enough to make it worth it
AusatKeyboardPremi@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 3y
That is a fair outlook. :-)

Forgot to mention the two accessories in the picture.
ThoughtGoblin@lemm.ee · 3 pts · 3y
Yeah, those are doing some heavy lifting for the aesthetic here.
I remember looking for a wrist rest a bit back, but it was hard to find something that was a combination of:
This one is real sleek.
AusatKeyboardPremi@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 3y
Real wood and absence of/minimal branding is what I was looking for too for the aesthetic I was aiming.
I can say the wood’s finishing has aged really well over the three or so years of use.
raspberry_confetti@sh.itjust.works · 2 pts · 3y
Thank you for this! I was going to ask about your palm rest.
AusatKeyboardPremi@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 3y
No problem. Glad I could help, and induce some engagement within the community. :-)
Look forward to a post of your setup/experience with the hobby.

Any info on the wrist rest? Does it warp at all?
AusatKeyboardPremi@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 3y
I have mentioned about the wrist rest in another comment of mine here. I bought it on Etsy.
As for your other question, I have not noticed any warping in the board in my 3 years of use.
