Nice, how did it feel?

BTW would have been better to add them to the existing topic

Thanks Jesse!

What did you think of the ErgoPro? What did you think of the linear switches?

Obra, Thanks for sharing!

Do you have a stall there yourself?

Not this year. Maybe next. What I hope is the final prototype before crowdfunding is coming back from the model shop next week, though.

The ErgoPro was very well designed. I'm pretty impressed. I only got a few moments with it. The linear switch...felt like a linear switch ;) They weren't built into anything yet.

Thanks for the pics! Was the feel of both ABS and PBT on the same board weird under the fingers?

Nah. It felt just fine.

I am very puzzled by the asymmetric appearance. Did the designer think that the left hand's index finger is significantly shorter than the right index finger?

And those extra large bottom row mods!

This has already been discussed to death on the other thread.

Yep...and I still think they made a mistake.  :)
