Introducing our latest creation - the ErgoDox in an elegant, low-profile housing expertly crafted from bamboo. The switch plate has been seamlessly integrated into the wooden housing, resulting in a beautifully streamlined design. Whether you consider bamboo as wood or grass, this creation pays homage to the natural world in every detail.

Our keyboard is also equipped with Kailh v1 hotswap sockets for flexibility and ease of use. Plus, it comes with a convenient USB-C socket and responsive Kailh chocolate Brown switches, perfect for typists who appreciate both style and function.

What do you think about it? Does it make sense?

I like it and I also like that you've come along to join the Lemmys

Do the sharp edges not make it uncomfortable?

I tested for an hour this keyboard, and did not notice anything. But I will give the option to choose when ordering the case.

That looks amazing! Would that also be possible with a 34-key-style keyboard?

This is the first time I've seen these caps on something that it really compliments. The combo is really nice imo. Are y'all planning on expanding to smaller split choc boards? Bamboo treatment for the Sweep would be a buy from me lol

Well, you've removed the tenting stands, which prevent pronation. Also, the standard ergodox ez adds a slight angle to the thumb cluster so it better conforms to the shape of the hand. All the keys on your board appear (based on the angle of the picture) to be on the same vertical plane and given that they're low profile, you don't even have enough give to even "fake" a natural angle.

In short, this design seems like it removes some of the ergonomic features of the ergodox ez for....looks?

Thank you for your insights. The tilt kit is available. As is the case with my other versions of wood-cased keyboards.

Ergonomic, split and other weird keyboards

Rules

Keep it ergo

Posts must be of/about keyboards that have a clear delineation between the left and right halves of the keyboard, column stagger, or both. This includes one-handed (one half doesn't exist, what clearer delineation is that!?)

i.e. no regular non-split¹ row-stagger and no non-split¹ ortholinear²

¹ split meaning a separation of the halves, whether fixed in place or entirely separate, both are fine.
² ortholinear meaning keys layed out in a grid
