Finished my first build, it turned out prettier than I expected honestly. I got a diodeless kit because I had never soldered anything before, it was quite a fun learning experience. Also my first mechanical keyboard, I’m really enjoying the feel of the keys (Kailh sunset).

I was really worried about adapting to the column-stagger, I’ve only used the regular row-stagger before, but after one hour of practice I was already typing at about half my normal speed, so I’m pretty happy.

I do feel that I need wrist rests though. not sure how to fix that yet.

    Thanks!

    I’ve been using Logitech ERGO K860 at home before this, so maybe I’ve just gotten used to the wrist rests. I’ve noticed that I lift my wrists into the air when I type on the Cantor, so I thought I needed some support. It’s actually not uncomfortable and I don’t type a lot, so I’ll take your advice and try a little longer with this setup. I’d honestly really like to avoid taking up the space on my desk, since I like to write on paper.
