Caseless and plateless Kyria with nice!nanos, SA8010 keycaps, and a choc thumb cluster inspired by the Pinky3/Pinky4, tented with splitkb pucks and manfrotto mini tripods.

I find that with the choc thumb cluster, this setup is ergonomically very close to my similar layout keywell board. (TBK Mini)

Alright, I'll admit that I'm a noob. That being said, wow that's unique! What was the learning curve like?

When I switched to my first columnar stagger board, it took me a few weeks ish to get comfortable with it. This varies a lot though from user to user and depending on what sort of stuff they're typing and whether they have any "bad" habits like typing b with their right hand.
