The two are pretty similar, but to me red pro is just about the point where I can hold the key without thinking about it, which is a good trait for modifier keys.
Originally I used numpad as a navigation block, but I’ve since figured out that setting right thumb row to [MO(2)←→↑↓] / [▿Home End PageUp PageDown] works well for my purposes, so now it’s just chillin’.
Assembled (complete with the pleasantly smooth photopolymer SLA case) by a local company (splitted_space on Telegram), originally with brown switches.
That. Is. Gorgeous. I want. I want badly.
Nice! Exchange the right knob for a track ball and you’ve got my dream setup
He does getcha-sketch navigation currently! :D
How do you usually click with the trackball setup there?
I have the moonlander so that’s just a dream for me still. I have mouseclick bound to a key on a layer already though, so probably that
I’ve seen that there was a tiny trackball mod for Sofle, but cannot easily tell if any changes are necessary to get this working with Choc.
Myself I’d probably want a bigger trackball like fingerpunch’s Faux Fox / Rock On builds have it.
That looks super clean.
How have you found the durability of the resin?
I’m hopefully sending some stuff off for manufacturing soon and I’ve been toying with a resin version as it greatly simplifies things for me, but I’m unsure it will be very resilient.
It’s certainly not wood or steel, but it’s doing okay - the only time when you can feel that it’s not an extra-sturdy material is when pressing on the encoders, and that might be addressable by adding an extra pair of rubber feet next to these.
