Tented Alice layout is so comfy, and much easier for my fat fingers to learn than an ortho.
I’ve preferred ergo keyboards for years and just bought my first Alice last year. I love it, but have always felt that there was something about it that didn’t feel right. Your build made me realize that I’m missing a tented ergo keyboard. Thanks for the post and the parts list!
Ill never get used to M being down there
Very nice aesthetic
Looks awesome!
Gorgeous! Dolch is my favorite colorway and silver boards always look great.
I’m mostly retired from the hobby at this point but I’ve always wanted a TGR Alice. Absolutely beautiful board.
Looks great! I love the background glow!
Ever tried something else than QWERTY? I’m on Colemak-DH since about a year or so and it’s pretty great. 🙂 I imagine that could be great with a keyboard like this.
Never have. Do you find it hard to switch back and forth if you ever have to use laptop keyboard / somebody else’s computer?
Great question. Not “hard”, no. 🙂 I’ve been using QWERTY for almost 40 years, so that’s pretty ingrained. Like riding a bike. Also I’m still on QWERTY on my phone.
But, I do type slower on a regular keyboard nowadays. Partly because I changed my layout, and partly because the ZSA Voyager, which is my main keyboard, is both split and column-staggered, rather than row-staggered like most keyboards. It’s hard to go back to rowstag after getting used to colstag. Rowstag just feels so incredibly wrong. Not at all meant for a human hand. 🤖
Man it looks amazing!
