This handwired 34-key split by Jonathan Dart aka supertoughfrog was inspired by the Dactyl, Skeletyl, Niztyl, etc.
I designed the case from scratch in fusion 360 based on Quentin from bastardkb.com’s YouTube videos.
The thumb key positioning is based on the OG dactyl, as manuform style thumb clusters don’t agree with the author's RSI.
