Dactyl Stabilized

Creators! Feel free to tip me off about your keyboard related projects to bring them to 100K readers.

Thumb cluster totally reworked so I have 4 super comfy buttons that are easy to hit (instead of 3 + 3 awkward ones with the manuform thumb cluster). The 1u keys have separate z offsets so I can hit them without interfering with the other keys.

Git repo: https://github.com/brucedjones/dactyl-stabilized

  • Fully wireless (with nice!nanos)
  • 2u keys on the thumb cluster have stabilizers
  • Large battery should give 3+ months battery life
  • Slimmed it down a bunch over the original dactyl manuform
  • Chunky palm rests custom shaped to the author's hands
