Broke my arm last week, couldn’t wait for MoErgo adaptors to arrive, so I designed and printed my own (the orange pucks).

The right side of the keyboard has been positioned for my broken arm and hand position at rest.

Getting the magnets right took a little prototyping. First time using brass inserts too.

Will post these on printables so anyone else can follow suit if need be.

    Nice job!!

    This doesn’t look like a MoErgo, though. Is it a new design?

    Edit. Oh, I see. They have a new Go60 keyboard. Sweet!

      The go60 is fantastic, I’ve been using one since it came out and it’s exactly what I needed from a split keyboard

          I have used both, and while glove80 is ultimately more comfortable due to the key well, I typically never use the “FN” row keys on g80, so losing the extra keys wasn’t a big deal. The size, layout, and built in trackpads on go60 are all amazing. When I was using glove80, I was using a miryoku-style layout that has only six layers, so likewise having six thumb keys per hand feels kinda overkill like the extra upper FN row felt for me on the fingers. Ultimately I feel like a glove60 (less keys, but also with the built in trackpads from go60) would be my “perfect” keyboard since I’m not regularly traveling or commuting with my keyboard. But until something like that ever happens, the trade offs for go60 are all worth it and I ended up getting rid of my glove80 after I was sure I wouldn’t regret the switch.
