Yeah that tank mouse is something else.. would have worked well in my build photo thats for sure. It is, without a doubt, the hot item to have in Amiga circles at the present moment (actually, probably a toss up between the new tank mouse and the PiStorm32 Lite as most coveted shiny object). Don't get me wrong, I LOOOOOOOOOOOOVE the tank mouse and everything it represents.. I own several original tank mice. Here's the thing though, they aren't the most ergonomic mouse to use. They can be downright painful to me at times. For that reason, I had to sit this one out on the new tank mouse.

You could use the excuse that the ergo split board was difficult to acclimate to and use that as an opportunity to maybe show her a picture of the keyboard you intend to bring in and why it suits your needs best and hence increasing your productivity.

What switches did you get? I just got the TH80 SE on sale with the gateron yellow.

I built my Iris this past weekend using SA Mitospeed keycaps and Kiwi switches. The 3D printed case was a bit too tall for my liking so I decided to design and print some Godspeed themed custom wrist rests to go along with it :)

Pretty pleased with the end result!

I uploaded the wrist rests STLs here, in case anyone is interested.

Thanks! I wanted the most Amiga keycap set I could find for this build since I'm using it with a Vampire V4. Turns out there aren't too many options out there. Sure some of the MT3 sets have the Amiga keycap, but nothing full on Amiga. When I saw that the guy behind the Checkmate cases had this keycap set made to sell along with his cases, I said why not and jumped at the chance to support an Amiga-centric business. They turned out much better than my expectations even if it doesn't have all the keys I need for the Q1.. I made it work, and using the Help key for the hard to find 1.75u right shift is just chef's kiss to me. ;)
