Been using this for a while now, had a kinesis advantage 2 but wanted more customisation without paying a premium for the new advantage 360.

There’s no led lighting so the battery lasts forever. Haven’t timed it but reckon I get at least a month out of it coding 8 hours a day

    Very cool build ! How hard was it to get the tolerance right for the switches to fit snugly ?

      Was a friend that did the 3d printing, and I know next to nothing about it, but we got lucky on the first print. Switches sit in very firm, would probably damage the case if I had to pop any out!

      It can be a pain. That and tuning supports so they don’t fail, or slice you up trying to get them out.
