This is my version of Tom Short's Dactyl Manuform 5x6 ergonomic keyboard (see: https://github.com/tshort/dactyl-keyboard ).

Changes from the original:

  • circular holes for USB and TRS panel-mounted sockets
  • added reset button hole
  • fixed thin wall around top-right thumb key
  • added some space around middle-right thumb key so the keycap (DSA profile specifically) doesn't come in contact with the case (see https://github.com/tshort/dactyl-keyboard/issues/26 )
  • changed the heat set insert holes to smaller holes for wood screws (I used 3x10mm)
  • removed "wire posts" (those tiny things that were supposed to guide wires/diode leads)

Only parts for the right hand side are included, use the mirror function in your slicer to get the left hand side parts.

I recommend using Cura with tree supports - the supports from PrusaSlicer are practically impossible to remove.
