Hi def63. Welcome to Geekhack.

Nothing special. Sure, maybe for you. I'm not an ergo guy, but that's a cool keyboard. Did you print the caps too?

I tried, but was not satify with quality. Therefore keycaps from china, ABS.

China churns out some pretty decent caps if you ask me. I love ABS myself. Don't care about yellowing, and I actually like when caps wear smooth.

Absolutely. That's some great work.

I get it. Maybe I'm just lucky. I seem to be able to type at the weirdest angles and my wrists rarely give me any problems.

Lucky you! It started about year ago, but not with pain. Once, I could not support a bag of bread by my left hand in supermarket. My fingers just opened. Got my heart checked (left hand - was a bit worring) - ok, finally they found it's a carpal tunnel problem (sorry for off topic).

Lucky you! It started about year ago, but not with pain. Once, I could not support a bag of pan by my left hand in supermarket. My fingers just opened. Got my heart checked (left hand - was a bit worring) - ok, finally they found it's a carpal tunnel problem (sorry for off topic).

I'm sorry to hear that. I hope that situation improves.

It is your new member thread, I don't think it matters what you feel like talking about.
