Ergonomic, split and other weird keyboards
Rules
Keep it ergo
Posts must be of/about keyboards that have a clear delineation between the left and right halves of the keyboard, column stagger, or both. This includes one-handed (one half doesn't exist, what clearer delineation is that!?)
i.e. no regular non-split¹ row-stagger and no non-split¹ ortholinear²
¹ split meaning a separation of the halves, whether fixed in place or entirely separate, both are fine.
² ortholinear meaning keys layed out in a grid

In your description I saw you thought the magnets were a bit too strong and it gave me an idea-
Why not enclose them in the print? Maybe take sheets of paper and layer them up until the magnet strength is how you like, measure that with calipers, and use that to determine how many print layers you'd need to make solid over the current magnet insets.
That would certainly work, I like that idea.
I won’t personally re-print this case myself as this Corne is just to see if I like the form factor (I do mostly).
But I will give this technique a go for the next enclosure. Even if it’s more work than a smaller magnet I just want to give it a go now 😊
Cool idea!
