I’m spoiled by column staggered splits, so it’d probably be a meh typing experience for me, but lordy does it look awesome.
What can you tell us about the switches and caps?
Yea staggered splits are awesome, I’m currently designing my own PCB for a split staggered with less keys than the typical sofle et all. Similar to what Ben Vallack has built.
Nothing fancy:
- copper plate
- akko jelly black (lubed)
- akko stabs (lubed)
- WoB SAL profile
SAL is new to me - SA-ish, but not as high? (That’s the impression I get from your picture).
And yes, still not 100% done with the layout of my Lily (are you ever), but certainly very glad I built it. Not sure I’m I’m ever ready for Vallack levels of key reduction, though…
Yea and r1-r4 are same angle/height as well (That’s why the bs and esc are different profiles as they are r5. I really want something similar to MT3 WoBs but there isn’t a set rn for double space bars, short enter and 1u backspace.
Yea Vallack is quite extreme. But I do like the concept, I’ll see where I’ll end up.
