Wooden Stenoboard

Having access to a laser cutter can be very useful – while I was at the computer lab I had access to one and used it to make a keyboard suited for my fingers.

Conclusion: the natural resting position for fingers didn’t take into account the differences in reach/the awkwardness of pinky bottom/ring finger top row, especially since on my right hand the pinky and ring fingers are connected.

The firmware is available on my fork of qmk_firmware, branch kovirobi-steno-updated.

Note, SVG has been modified for the website, sizes might be off. Best way to check sizes is check the key cutout dimensions – it is using the Matias quiet linear switches. See the Matias website for the blueprints, it i meant to be 15.5mm wide, 12.8mm high.
