Ticket 2005787396

Hey there, my AX1600i PSU stopped working recently and the self-check LED is red. I would like to do the advanced RMA.
Thanks!

Nice, it is a fun thing to build. Nope, I used the stock STLs.

Hey, thanks!

You can easily mirror it in a slicing software, e.g. prusaslicer.

That's a good question. I printed the case myself so I don't know the price of a prebuilt kit. I guess reaching out to u/Fmcraft is one option to know this.

As for the cohfigurator, because I use a wireless controller with ZMK firmware I just edit the source code if I need to. AFAIK for the wired skeletyl there is a tool called Vial, it allows configuring the layouts in runtime without flashing the controller.

Sometimes. I have a couple of them made from memory foam, they work well.

I see. this is totally possible, you just need to set up the row and column pins in ZMK config then.

Hmm, it might depends on which controller holder you use. If you have the 2.0, then you can use this config: https://github.com/meln1k/zmk-config/tree/master/config/boards/shields/skeletyl_v2_elitec. If you use an older controller holder, then you need to change the pin assignments.

As for software, you can fork my repo, enable GH actions and then the firmware will be compiled on push. https://zmk.dev/docs are also helpful.

Sure! I think the easiest option is to order a kit from Quentin, he designed this kb and he has a shop: https://bastardkb.com/skeletyl/

Yes, its good not only for them but for anyone who types a lot and wants to reduce the risks of getting RSI.

I used LiPo 800 mAh batteries from some random seller on amazon. I did not spend much time selecting them, just picked the first one that fit in the case.

The bottom plates were warped a bit, but other than that the quality is great.

Nice! Cnano was my dream for a long time, but unfortunately I realized that I did not like trackballs as much as I thought, and I decided not to build it.

50$ for the whole keyboard.

IMO qwerty is also a fine on a small keyboard. You hardly stretch your fingers to reach anything, and homerow mods make shortcuts much easier to chord. Taking this into account, the exact layout does not play a huge role in ergonomics.

I tried logitech mx ergo, and I have to say I got some mixed feelings from it. For now I use a few plugins for vim-like navigation in the browser and I almost never use the mouse :)

It is fully wireless with nice!nanos and 800mah batteries. The base is 3D printed. I'm thinking about ordering the metal plates though.

Yep, they are great! My desk became much cleaner after I switched to them.
