Ah, but they have build in wireless charging, so that makes up, oh, $100 of that price.

The other $1200, though... :capitalism:

dactyl manuform is about $100 for diy for barebones functional wired version. wireless with nice keycaps likely has material cost (at retail) or $300-500, and, say, 8 hours to go from base components to box you can carry to a post office, by someone who knows what they’re doing

at 1.6 grand that’s still like $800 markup best case scenario

yeah this is the only one in that batch that isnt somehow significantly compromised

except it has space for a ctrl/alt pair on both sides, and who the hell intentionally wants an alt gr key instead of just a normal alt

but those are minor

they all look neat tho

Unfortunately the Alt key is red legend so it looked kinda dumb below the red shift and really out of place with the blockers there.
So I just went with AltGr

I got a keyboard kit but forgot to get switches I guess? Ordered a bunch of them and then I have to figure out how it actually assembles. I hope I remembered to get a hot-swap board…

well if you have any issues with soldering a board, I have no qualms with building it for you for free.
Just pay shipping both ways.

Out of curiosity, what board is it?

that's a very kind offer! I can do basic soldering, I'm just impatient (and not very skilled, but that's what practice is for)

it's just a kit off AliExpress to get started with: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005001790617202.html with these keycaps: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004347380092.html

I also got this keycap set, but my daughter is threatening me with pain if I put them on the computer. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004568944999.html
