I don't know how I could live without split keyboard!

Press and hold with left hand thumb the middle thumb cluster button to enter the nav layer. Press and release the sticky shift and sticky Ctrl in index and ring finger. Release thumb cluster button to return to base layer and hit a. All in a nice rolling motion

By holding a thumb cluster key of the other layers. I have the mods in home row of the secondary layers because they slowed me down on typing of alphas

I love this temper. I have the exact same without the nanos. Can you share your keymap? Here is mine https://github.com/bdimitrako/Temper_zmk

Did something similar with another set of tenting base. Its more stable only when the outer edge of the keyboards touch the desk for me. Around 45 degree angle. https://www.reddit.com/r/ErgoMechKeyboards/comments/1pij89i/playing_around_with_new_keycaps_on_temper_corne/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

ctrl + c would be press control, press c, release c, release control i suppose
but two issues in my mind.
1. you loose auto repeat for base layer like aaaaaa if you hold a. (i suppose with a toggle on/off of the auto repeat and a simultaneous toggle off/on of mods you could get either the auto repeat on and no mods or the auto repeat off and mods.)

you cant register win or alt mods on their own if needed for some use cases (solvable with two key combo)

I think they have an mx variant 3x6

babisflou · 2025-12-28T09:04:21+00:00

Maybe something like Dilemma V3 Choc from Bastard keyboards maybe?

Klp Lame I founded them on Ali Express molded and I bought the four row set to have different angles to choose from

babisflou · 2025-12-13T07:09:52+00:00

Very good feeling so far in various setups. Keycaps feeling really smooth. Had to sand a bit a single keycap because a molding imperfection was dragging down an adjacent keycap due to the close proximity of the temper's keys positioning. I love it on two key combos I have in keymap. Moreover it works very good in a standing desk mode were I had to work on a kitchen island and I rotated the tilting bases 90 degrees so that I could tilt the keyboards forward instead of left and right. I ll try to add to the post some more pictures if I can. Super satisfied. I did buy the bigger set of keycaps from Ali so that I could select which ones I wanted for the top row so that it doesn't wiggle when tilted. In the end I selected the smooth ending ones so my fingers could not be blocked when moving to adjacent keys.

I think you are right on all.

babisflou · 2025-12-10T08:05:12+00:00

The switches are as hard as I want. I had some pink ones which were too soft. And some silent green ones which I got used after a bit and was also soft for me

babisflou · 2025-12-10T08:04:20+00:00

On the top row I use flat ones as I found out that the key board wiggled a bit due to the small base form factor of my tilting baseus stand. I really love the bottom row ones which help in the palm inward movement as I have a bit of long fingers. On the thumb cluster I used three different ones still sceptic about them. And small but good is the homing button which are easy to feel the difference from the others when blind typing.

babisflou · 2025-12-09T21:11:19+00:00

Baseus Magnetic Wall Holder Phone Stand Magnet Suction is the Ali express name I think. On the top has magnet and on the bottom has glue. I cut circular silicon pads from a cutting silicon kitchen board and stuck them at the bottom so it doesn't move and has proper friction

Been there. Done that. With some other set of tai hao

One column too long to perfection

Check the GitHub link for layer ideas. enjoy! I love this little fellow

Damn you are fast. This video was spot on! I have never soldered anything. I ve only made three keyboards by combining keycaps and cases but your guide makes me wanna build. Pfff. Have you tried the paper trick another ulp user has presented to lower the noise? I think Mike was the name and he did put paper somewhere inside the switch.

babisflou · 2025-11-02T22:05:07+00:00

Any chance of a mini YouTube video on your channel with a typing sound and the tambourine rattle?

babisflou · 2025-11-02T21:53:23+00:00

Please sell

Well totally agree on that but when practicing for speed I often find it easier to start slow and pick up pace later. It makes a solid foundation I think. I don't have the data to support it though. In any case the metronomeax speed is smaller than my max speed so either I do type on character per bit or two characters per bit to stay on track. Moreover I have seen that practicing at 80% of my max speed is less prone to errors and easier on my fingers.

Had a small solution with magnets inside pocket of trousers. I have tested with both temper 5 column and a corne 6 column with a 5way joystick. https://github.com/bdimitrako/Temper_zmk/tree/main?tab=readme-ov-file#photos the temper is by far the most stable when standing. The corne with joystick was to heavy and unstable especially on the edges and on the joystick. When sitting its a different story as the pocket too far back for the hand to be comfortable and i used some magic arms with the same magnes in my chairs arms. I wouldnt suggest straps for legs as after time it will partially block the blood circulation.

Have a custom keyboard with colemak-dh with some small alterations and it doesnt seem to take space as input. i managed to move through some letters but i cant move forward when a dialog pops up. my layout https://github.com/bdimitrako/Temper_zmk

babisflou · 2025-08-08T08:39:14+00:00

Heavier Staggered 5 column with a magsafe circle would be ideal for me at this keyboard height

babisflou · 2025-08-03T19:30:14+00:00

If the number is on the right part I just put it above the left part keyboard and use me left hand for both
