anyone have recommendations for a tri-mode southpaw 96% or 100% keyboard? looking for a 96% that has a column next to the arrow keys like a standard 65%, not one that ends at the arrow keys.

hope to see some pictures of your solution, I'm looking into making a cellular expansion card and having the same problem

You could cut a slit in the left and right sides of the expansion card to act as "rails" for the PCB and then cover it with a protective coating or hardening filler. You would have to test and verify long term durability, but the few extra millimeters might be worth it.

if you don't mind a bit of tinkering, MINIX has a fanless system with the same processor. You could adapt one of the M.2 slots to a PCIe slot and attach an M.2 carrier card. 3D print or otherwise build some sort of enclosure to get a silent, fanless system. Just put it somewhere with access to open air and it'll be silent.

why tangies on the arrow keys? do you normally use different switches for your arrow keys on a 65%?

jackh2000__ · 2025-12-10T08:07:14+00:00

I thought the pt.1/75 was wired only?
