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.

I designed and built a super-ergonomic trackball-enabled Dactyl Manuform with a crazy mouse level shift mechanism (w/ complete build guide)
This keyboard is an attempt to make a best-of-both-worlds combination between the modular (and support-saving) design of dereknheiley's compactyl manuform (with adjustable wrist rest mounts) and the trackball-enabled design of the noahprince22's tracktyl manuform, forking the firmware from Schievel1's dactyl_manuform_r_track.

Rebuilt my tracktyl fork to be wireless
https://github.com/noahprince22/tractyl-manuform-keyboard There are links for everything here, but if you plan to make it wireless I think there are other sensors which consume less battery power
-
Dactyl Manuform Curvature ???
The tractyl manuform from noahprince22 outputs a model with a test hand with the finger length input from base to knuckle to knuckle to tip. I've found it gives a pretty decent first impression of the alignment of the dactyl in your hand. To get it just you do need some iterations with a test model

Where can I find a 3d model of how-swap Kailh choc socket for a keyboard? (for example Dactyl Manuform)
https://github.com/noahprince22/tractyl-manuform-keyboard this one does, its quite different from a lot of other manuforms, so it might be worth just using the code that generates the slots for the daily sockets and adding to a variant you like

Is there a guide for a hotswappable Bluetooth dactyl manuform with a trackball?

handwired tractyl firmware issue
So, I followed this guide to build my next keyboard. The only difference between mine and this one is that I added an encoder to the right side, and I used 2 Elite-c instead of 2 Pro Micro.

Print failed :(
I wrote a build guide for mine here https://github.com/noahprince22/tractyl-manuform-keyboard. Basically just some ball bearings. It's less frictiony than the Logitech trackball I tested in best buy.
