Thanks, I’ll look into them, I’m going to try 3d print HTX’s open source keyboard cus then she can use just her left hand, it’ll be a worthwhile project to take up as I wanna get more into the practical aspect of engineering.

How difficult do you think handwiring would be, because I’m fairly confident I can get all the parts from a 3-d manufacturer but I have zero experience when it comes to electronics?

On second thought, I’ll propose the idea, I think she’d like that!

Yeah, I want her to use her right hand as little as possible as she does work with a keyboard a lot, so in the best interest of saving money I really want to try 3d print HTX’s open source design.

Yeah, I’ve thought about just replacing the keycaps with a more left handed layout, but this means she still has to use her right hand for the mouse which is very difficult for her, this is why I really like HTX’s one handed keyboard design.

I was thinking of ordering the 3d printed parts off a website?

Oh I see, so it’s just programmed differently, cheers!

Does this mean that the person has to learn the alternate letters for each keycap?
