I see, not sure how far you're willing to pursue this but you _might_ find help on Reddit or Discord. I would be very surprised if you are the first person with short thumbs to want a Dactyl. Someone might have paved the way with a hand similar to yours.
Some subreddits that I know:
r/ErgoMechKeyboards
r/MechanicalKeyboards
r/olkb
Also I know about these on Discord:
SliceMK
KBDFans
BastardKB
SplitKB
QMK
- mech422 3y agoThanks! I generally make the rounds every 6 months or so... But I've been building keebs for a few years now, and I gotta cut back :-P The biggest issue is it takes forever to print a shell to 'test fit' it. It would actually be cool if you could print the shells upside down so you don't have to print the whole thing to see how it feels. Oh! looks like there's a OpenSCAD parametric dactyl now (1) I think this was the clojure one I was playing with before: (2) 1: https://github.com/pseudoku/Dactyl-It-Yourself-Editor https://github.com/pseudoku/Dactyl-It-Yourself-Editor 2: https://github.com/l4u/dactyl-manuform-mini-keyboard https://github.com/l4u/dactyl-manuform-mini-keyboard
- akaralar 3y agoI hadn't seen the first one, nice! Well, the only way to cut back is to make the end-game kb, which will also be a Dactyl for me but I think I’ll buy it from either ohkeycaps[1] or cyboard[2]. cyboard also does measure-to-build[3], it might entice you if you decide to buy it ready-made instead of building yourself.
