Build compatibility help: The original Dactyl Lightcycle
I want to build the lightcycle (MX variant) (may make some adjustments e.g. making the outermost columns 1.25u like my Kinesis 360). Additionally, here is what I'm thinking:
- Tastatura za programiranje - 60%

3x6 dactyl manuform first build
Handwired, QMK on Raspberry Pi Pico, model from https://github.com/adereth/dactyl-keyboard with modified thumb cluster. 3d printed with wooden PLA, sanded and coated. Hackysacks as provisional wrist support 😉

How to add rotary encoders to the Left side of Dactyl using Teensy 2.0 and MCP23018?
I plan to use PIN GPB6 and GPB7 on The MCP23018 for the rotary encoder. I am using QMK Version 0.17.9 and followed the build of this QMK - GUIDE

Any choc scultped boards ?
Retail wise, the MoErgo Glove80 is a Dactyl like board with low profile switches.
-
Blue (Da Ba Dee)
It's a custom request, but is closest to the original dactyl key placement.
- Is there anyone able to locate the STLs for this dactyl build?

In progress hot-swap 7x5, thoughts for colour
Thanks, I take no credit for the design that's for sure, I think the original dactyl is here
- After over a year of fiddling about she is almost complete..
- Built this handwired redox some time ago. I cant live without it anymore. I love to use the space in the center

This is my first custom keyboard and thought "how bad can hand wiring be." I've drastically underestimated the time requirement lol
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.
