Dilemma Max by BastardKB; It has an integrated RP2040 microcontroller chip and diodes and underglow leds came presoldered, so soldering the per-key LEDs and switches and assembling the trackpad and case took me close to 2 hours.

I'm still looking for a display to use on the left side.

Looks really neat! Will you apply letters / paint for identifying the keys?

I really like the construction, if I could try something and customize it to my hands and my workflow / comfort / ergonomics / productivity AND customize the firmware (key macros, binds etc) that could be really neat!

What is your particular use case? Gaming? Streaming? Programming? Typing all day?

I suppose having multiple keyboards is also an option

    Thanks! This was actually the only keycaps set I had laying around that wasn't in use 😄 But I'm a Colemak user myself, so 90% of the caps usually don't match my layout anyway and I never look at the keys. That said, I'm thinking about replacing the caps with a uniform XDA set (the current set is NP-profile) with labels.

    I do have multiple keyboards, but I'll try this one out for gaming, since it has a num row which most of my other boards haven't.

    I've been re-exploring these split keyboards... Thanks for replying . How are you liking this?

    Is there anything you would change?

    How is your typing speed? I'm a fast typer and type a lot everyday.. less a gamer but something like this would also be fun to build and program.

    I still think this is one of the cooler ones that I have seen! 👍 Good job!
