This is my first custom keyboard and thought "how bad can hand wiring be." I've drastically underestimated the time requirement lol
I printed a hot swap compatible case from files generated using this repo from Wylder Builds. The sockets fit pretty well without glue, but not all are tight enough to never pop out. Depends on your print tolerances (mine are okayish).
- Wylderbuilds new trackball model tweaks and BRICKS for easy, cheesy tenting!

I test printed a Dactyl case to see if I like the shape
Regarding trackball and thumb cluster variants of a Dactyl ManuForm: wylderbuilds github has pretty much the majority of, if not every, Dactyl ManuForm thumb cluster and trackball thumb cluster variations.

Let's Design a Keyboard with Ergogen v4: Introduction – FlatFootFox
https://www.etsy.com/shop/Wylderbuilds is a place I've used in the past. They sell parts and completed keyboards, but also have a link out to github with their modifications, at https://github.com/bullwinkle3000/dactyl-keyboard. The whole dactyl space is definitely a rabbit hole, though.

Help with choosing part for my first dactyl manuform build
There's examples of dactyl manuform cases with trackball housing (example GitHub repo), though the circular display is going to be a design topic in itself. Most likely the display protrudes from the upper inner side of case slightly, like a sky scraper roof top Helipad 😋

I ask $60 for a set with the necessary cables and RP2040 MCUs. I can ship to australia but it would likely be fairly expensive though. The PCBs are also designed to be used with my own fork of the dactyl, here.

No more lugging my keyboard between home and office (Dactyl Manuform 5x7, mixed MT3 key caps, Boba U4 Silent Tactile switches)
I can't speak for OP but IIRC the Carbonfet repo has a configurable file that lets you select for the alternative thumb cluster layout. I like it a lot more than the default Dactyl Manuform cluster. It's easier to access with your thumb with less stretching.

In progress hot-swap 7x5, thoughts for colour
Yeah I generated them with the help of Carbonfet github repo I can upload my version later. The right hand I used full support. The left I cut it in half and printed it in two pieces and glued it. This was way better and used minimal supports.

Help needed with wiring (keyswitch orientation problem, dactyl manuform 6x7)
It looks like you printed an STL that included nubs, but your switches don't support nubs. Those switches are supposed to be either North or South facing. See the first bullet point under "Features" from this link: https://github.com/carbonfet/dactyl-manuform
-
Thinking of building a dactyl manuform
I used the 5x7 fork from carbonfet for a while and really liked the thumbcluster of it. I currently use a 3x5+3 layout because I realized that I don't use a lot of the keys after integrating layers into my keymap and now I use a layout based on miryoku.

Loligagger Elite-C Holder gone?
I don't know if it would fit the case you've assumedly already printed, but my fork with those holders is here.

[CA-ON] [H] Dactyl-Manuform w/ 75g Clickiez [W] Paypal
It seems like your questions was already answered in another thread, but it's my own thumb cluster, the fork itself is here. There are some slight differences between what's on my fork and these boards I have up for sale (mostly just changes to the MCU holder to accommodate the PCBs I use).

What type of dactyl are these?

Questions about configuring a Dactyl Manuform shape
I want my keyboard to be as comfortable as possible because I got some bad RSI. I figured I would use this fork, because it has special mounts for a pro micro, an option to have the 7th column with 1u keycaps, and it should also work with kailh switches. I can already compile it and open it in openscad
-
Had fun with keycaps today
Go with the Carbonfet-Dactly, not the original, as it has a different thumb cluster arrangement. In the original only three to four buttons of the six are easily reachable, which is a bit annoying. Reconfiguring some of the 1.25u keys to be 1u can make it a bit easier to find keycaps.
What are some alternatives?
