Choc cap recommendations
Choc cap recommendations
I’m looking for a recommendation for choc keycaps based on a 24 key keyboard. Each side will have 2 keys per finger (4 for the index). Pressing the upper and lower key simultaneously will be the equivalent of the home row.
My challenge is finding a cap that ‘plays nice’ with pressing two keys next to each other with the same finger. They’re mostly concave to allow you to press into the middle of them.
Before I go about designing a set, I wanted to see if anything was already on the market.
If you mean two keys in the same column, then Chicago Steno should be fine. I resin printed a set for my humla and they are nice and comfortable (I like them more than LDSA).
+1 for CS, my favorite choc caps by far and great for vertical combos
probably the keycaps that people use for steno should do what you’re looking for. Idk specifically what keycaps any of them use, but take a look at the Uni (https://stenokeyboards.com) and see if you can figure out which keycaps they use - those should play nice with your idea
this example seems to use Cherry style keycaps, but that direction should take you to a choc set that works
I am using MCC from Moergo Glove80 with convex 1u in thumb cluster - should work for double press of adjacent keys and steno mode. Besides, POM is pleasant material. https://www.moergo.com/collections/moergo-keycap-collection
