Armin Anderson aka Bauns shared his Hammerhead42 – a unibody/monoblock split with a 40mm Cirque trackpad and joystick that functions as a 5-way switch and rotary encoder in one. The design was inspired by Jason Hazel's Bad Wings.

I picked hammerhead as the name because when I was originally designing the handwired plate for the prototype, at one point it looked almost identical to a hammerhead shark's head and I thought it fit – Brauns.

This was originally a handwired build, teased in Issue #168, but now there is a PCB.
