I love this board, and the deskmat gives me motion sickness; somehow in a good way.

I love this thing. It's the Skeletyl (my previous favourite board) with a trackball so I only need to move my hands to have a drink or pick my nose.
This was a difficult build but satisfying. When things aren't working, but they only don't seem to be working and they actually are; that's the best kind of "not working". Nothing's broken except how you measure or recognise success (I had my trackball sensor on upside down - always make note of how things look before you take them apart).
So when it finally started working it was like "ohhhh I'm stupid". I can live with that; I mostly live like that.
So anyway I think I'm done with keyboards now. I have a Pelican case coming for this, and I want to get some brass/copper plates, but it'd be pointless for me to build more boards now. I won't tell you how many keycap sets I am waiting for.
