Hi folks, I’ve been working on this keyboard pretty much since January of this year, and I’ve finally got it to the point that I can call it done! If you’d like to build one, all files are available here.

This is an MX-based keyboard, 36 keys with integrated trackball. The github page has a bunch more details. I also have a choc version in dev using the same style that’s based off the Trinidox.

Let me know what you think!

    Haha, ya I bet it’s lighter. Looks fantastic. One thing I messed around with in the slicer (cura for me) is the z-seam (where the layer starts printing). I moved it to the back to hide it. Ideally it would be on the inside of the case, but I didn’t spend enough time on it to figure it out. I think the z-seam is going down the front to the left of the thumb keys, yes? If it doesn’t bother you, keep going!

      Yeah, that is the Z-seam. I thought activating “Retraction on layer change” might get rid of it,but it doesn’t. It would not bother me much to have it there but then again, this is still a test print. I will probably print the final part in PETG. Then I will position it for the Z-seam to be on the back simewhere.
