Has anybody ever done a BUDGET ErgoMechKeyboard?
For a curved keyboard without a 3D printer and without a laser cutter... well, I've imagined something like origami, but never accomplished it.

Where to get started?
My Dactyl Manuform is at https://github.com/jaredjennings/dactyl-keyboard/tree/tshort-plus-jared, including a shell that goes over top for protection in transit.

Ergonomics of dactyl manuform compared to kinesis 2
A common complaint with both the Ergodox and the original Dactyl is that it's only really easy to reach the innermost thumb key. On my tshort Dactyl Manuform I can only easily reach the innermost two thumb keys. There are many thumb layout variations, one of which you have pictured, as well as wider Dactyl variations.

Looking for recommendation from the seasoned vets
For flat keyboards: I haven't seen anyone mention https://jhelvy.shinyapps.io/splitkbcompare/ yet, so I will. With a flat keyboard you can print out the layout on a sheet of paper to initially check it out. For curved keyboards I am not aware of a similar way to cheaply try them out.

Traveling with a Dactyl
If yours is the original tshort version, like mine, grab an STL! If you have modifications (e.g. different thumb cluster, changes to parameters, different ProMicro mounting, TRRS plugs), you'll need to muck about in the source to get it to generate a case for yours.

Testing my Dactyl's fit before printing
(I still want to be able to make paper models someday, though.)

Help - building OpenSCAD files for Tractyl Manuform 5x6
In my design (don't print it just now, I experimented with the key placement and it is wrong and will hurt you), I added web-logs, which are like web-posts, but lying down parallel to the plane of the key, and used them to round off the sharp corners. Belatedly I realize I should have called them web-beams instead. Oh well.

Dactyl Manuform cover
you can go from the other end of the problem, (1) git clone https://github.com/jaredjennings/dactyl-keyboard jdactyl; (2) cd jdactyl; (3) git checkout tshort-plus-jared; (4) lein repl; (5) (load-file "src/dactyl_keyboard/dactyl.clj"). but this will get you a tshort dactyl manuform.

Dactyl Manuform - Transport Box Designs?
I made one, but I've never gone to the effort to post a picture of it. It's a shell that goes over each half. https://github.com/jaredjennings/dactyl-keyboard/commit/cd43dfd01e5847cc262664da073d67bb9cae5617.

PSA: Anthony (/u/smyjpmu) is a con artist who scammed us out of more than 13.800 USD / An apology
That's why I mostly want to give people the benefit of the doubt about whether they should share their designs. Partly to try to avoid undercutting entrepreneurs, I've held off trying to develop PCBs for my Dactyl fork, since before this controversy came to light.

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
