The two are pretty similar, but to me red pro is just about the point where I can hold the key without thinking about it, which is a good trait for modifier keys.
Originally I used numpad as a navigation block, but I’ve since figured out that setting right thumb row to [MO(2)←→↑↓] / [▿Home End PageUp PageDown] works well for my purposes, so now it’s just chillin’.
Assembled (complete with the pleasantly smooth photopolymer SLA case) by a local company (splitted_space
on Telegram), originally with brown switches.
That. Is. Gorgeous. I want. I want badly.
Nice! Exchange the right knob for a track ball and you’ve got my dream setup
I’ve seen that there was a tiny trackball mod for Sofle, but cannot easily tell if any changes are necessary to get this working with Choc.
Myself I’d probably want a bigger trackball like fingerpunch’s Faux Fox / Rock On builds have it.
How do you usually click with the trackball setup there?
I have the moonlander so that’s just a dream for me still. I have mouseclick bound to a key on a layer already though, so probably that
He does getcha-sketch navigation currently! :D
That looks super clean.
How have you found the durability of the resin?
I’m hopefully sending some stuff off for manufacturing soon and I’ve been toying with a resin version as it greatly simplifies things for me, but I’m unsure it will be very resilient.
It’s certainly not wood or steel, but it’s doing okay - the only time when you can feel that it’s not an extra-sturdy material is when pressing on the encoders, and that might be addressable by adding an extra pair of rubber feet next to these.
